Chapter 54 A Habit of Beating Up Thugs

Alice scoffed, "He's probably just venting his frustration from earlier at Dawnspire Heights. All that pent-up anger finally came out here." Zachary paused for a moment, then laughed mockingly. "Didn't Mr. Barrett say he lives in Villa One?

"For someone who can supposedly afford a mansion like that, lining up to buy fried dough at this stall? This guy is hilarious." Alice sighed, looking at Robin with a pitying expression.

"Maybe breaking off the engagement really hit him hard. That's why he keeps lying and pretending to be someone he's not.

"I think he's just trying to prove himself to me to show me he can 'live well' and 'be impressive.'

"But it's pointless. We're from different worlds. We'll never be on the same level."

"I mean, really. For him to pretend to own Villa One at Dawnspire Heights... how sad.

"There's nothing I can do for someone so shallow. Watching him try so hard just makes me feel sorry for him."

Zachary chuckled. "Alice, there's no need to feel anything for a guy like that. Just sit back and enjoy the show."

...

Meanwhile, Robin was standing over the stocky man, who looked up at him, trembling.

"D-Don't... don't come any closer. Don't hit me again..."

Robin raised an eyebrow.

"Didn't you say something about how you won't get hurt if you don't ask for it?

"It was me asking for it! It was all my fault!" The man stammered, begging for mercy.

He could tell that if he kept up his tough act, this young guy in front of him would beat him to a pulp.

Robin sneered. "Get lost."

With a swift kick, he sent the man flying back seven or eight feet.

Robin's kick sent the chubby man flying backward, landing hard 20 feet away.

After struggling to get up, the man scrambled to his feet and fled, fear replacing his initial bluster.

The crowd erupted in applause and laughter.

"Good job! Well done!"

"Young man, that was impressive!"

"Someone needs to teach thugs like him a lesson!"
