Vera's face clouded as she watched the smug look on Abre's face.

"Alice, I don't understand why you always despise Robin.

"From what I recall, he's never done anything to harm you or your family's interests.

"Even if you look down on Robin, find his status lacking, and don't want to marry him, he's never shown.

any resentment.

"He's even helped you.

"It's one thing not to show a hint of gratitude, but to despise him, to hope for his misfortune-it just doesn't make sense.

"I can't understand why you feel this way. At the very least, the Ramseys and the Millers have shared a Connection over the years-that counts for something. "Even if you two don't end up together, you could at least wish him well, not curse him!"

Alice shook her head and gave a mocking laugh. "Why should I wish well for someone always out for attention, constantly stirring up trouble? He's shallow and vulgar. "He helped me just to show off and win me back after I broke off the engagement

"Hah! He forgets that we're from completely different worlds. All 1 feel for him is contempt!

"Every time he causes a big scene, I can't help but feel ashamed for him.

"A man with little real ability who insists on doing outlandish things... It's disgusting!"

As Vera and Alice were talking, two Bentleys drove by.

Vera's eyes lit up as she thought she caught sight of Robin in one of the cars.

"Alice, look! Isn't that Robin in the car?"

Alice glanced at the foreigners sitting in the car and laughed. "Vera, are you out of your mind? Why are you so obsessed with Robin?

"What kind of tricks did that se undrel pull to have you so mesmerized?

"Vera, get a grip!

"Look closer-those Bentleys are reserved for foreign dignitaries! They're specifically used by the Harmonfield City Government's Foreign Affairs Office for VIP guests! "With Robin's lowly status, there's no way he'd qualify to sit in such a luxurious car

"Vera, you need to come to your senses. If this keeps up, I'm seriously worried about you!"

Ignoring Alice's mocking tone, Vera pulled out her phone and called Robin.
