Chapter 16 The Devil

Rita's voice was frigid. "I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the responsibility of ignoring the rules of the Violetcrest Club!"

Don's lips quivered as he eyed the imperious Rita, caught in an increasingly precarious position.

Robin observed the father and son with evident satisfaction, a smirk playing on his face.

"Zachary, there's no need for theatrics. Just get down and bark three times, and I'll overlook the 100 million."

"Scoundrel! Are you looking for trouble?" Don bellowed, pointing menacingly at Robin. His four bodyguards tensed, ready for action.

Robin took a casual look at Don. "Are you planning to make a move? I'd advise against it. Your guards don't seem very capable. "Besides, resorting to force to avoid paying a debt isn't a good look, is it?

"The best course of action is for your son to pay up promptly or get down and bark three times. That would settle the matter!" "Outrageous!" Don's face darkened. His bodyguards moved towards Robin.

Shirley stepped in front, her voice icy. "Mr. Gill, your son might not understand the rules, but does that mean you don't either?" Don frowned slightly, glancing at Shirley. "Ms. Dunn, what are you insinuating?"

"This bet was initiated by your son.

"Initially, I put up the Eastvale Ecological Project, valued at 50 billion dollars, while their bet was only 300 million.

"Now that Robin has won, are you attempting to back out of the agreement?

"Do you think I would waste my time on someone as insignificant as Zachary?"

Don was taken aback!

He had just realized that Zachary was up against the heiress of the Dunns!

Shirley's gaze was unwavering as she surveyed Don and his imposing bodyguards.

"Mr. Gill, if you intend to handle this with force, the Dunns are more than prepared to meet you head-on!"

Don scrutinized Robin and then Shirley, weighing her words carefully.

In the past, he would never have dared to challenge the Dunns.

But circumstances were different now.

Despite the Gill Group's severe financial troubles and imminent collapse, they had formed an alliance with the Hamiltons, who owned Universal Group.

If today's meeting with Daphne went well, the Dunns, once the foremost family in Harmonfield, would become less of a concern.
