The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 15

The mood at the Violetcrest Club's Riding and Shooting Center turned frosty.

100 million dollars is no small amount.

However, for the Gill Group, a well-established player in Hammanfield's business sector, it shouldn't be a significant obstacle. Isn't Robin's request a bit too arrogant?

All eyes were on Zachary

Given Zachary's status among Harmonfield's elite, he should have already slapped the 100 million dollars onto the table.

Yet, instead...

He didn't do as the crowd expected.

Zachary, whose face reddened with fury, could only paint at Robin, struggling for words. "H-how dare you!"

Zachary was seething with a murderous rage.

He had not anticipated being outdone by Robin once more,

His plan had been to humiliate Robin thoroughly before Alice and Shirley with his superior riding and shooting skills.

But this was the result!

What made it even more humiliating was his inability to actually produce the 100 million.

Robin pursed his lips. "What's the matter?

"Mr. Gill, you were the one who initiated the bet and agreed to the amount.

"And now that you've lost, you're hesitating to pay.

"I suggested that you get down on the ground and bark three times to settle the debt, but you seem so reluctant. What's that about? "Are you challenging the rules of the Violetcrest Club?

He threw a sideways glance at Rita.

Alice marched up to Robin, scolding him. "You're so petty! Robin, do you think Mr. Gill is as financially struggling as you are?

"With the Gill Group's status in Harmonfield, 100 million is nothing to him. Don't be so small-minded! "Do you really think Mr. Gill would do such a thing for 100 million? You're not worthy of such a demand!

"You're so narrow-minded and intolerant; you're disgusting!"

She turned on her heel and said, "Mr. Gill, just pay him Someone like him, who's never dealt with this much money, isn't worth any more of our attention."

At that moment, Vera noticed something.

Zachary's hesitation clearly indicated the difficulty in raising the 100 million.

Rumors had circulated that the Gill Group was facing financial difficulties; could they genuinely be unable to produce the sum?
