Piper leaned against the peephole again, watching Rolin's door closely.

Rosalie shook her head, puzzled. "Piper, aren't you reading into things too much?

"Robin doesn't seem like that kind of person. And besides, does he need to wait outside our door just to spy on you?"

Piper hulled in annoyance. "Oh, spare me. Every time bring up Robin, you defend him! I know you're already infatuated with that jerk.

"I've seen men like him 100 times! He'd do anything just to get me to look his way.

"And now he's stalking me? Ugh, it's disgusting!

Rosalie sighed. Piper, I think you're overreacting.

"We should try to get along with Robin. Who knows, we might even become friends. We work at the same company and live nearby; we could look out for each other.

Before she could finish, Piper cut in, irritated. "Give it a rest. Men like him are everywhere. No family connections, no real network-there's no future in getting close to someone like him!" Rosalie hesitated, then said, "Actually, Piper, I heard that Robin might be a senior executive at the Dunn Group.

"I mean, maybe you should be a bit more careful around him?"

Piper paused, then burst into laughter.

"Oh, Rosalie, do you believe that rumor? Ha! This has got to be some nonsense Robin spread around himself!

"He probably wants me to think he's some big shot at the Dunn Group, hoping I'll be curious about him and start liking him. What a pathetic trick! Ha!"

Rosalie smiled wryly. "You're set against him, aren't you?"

Piper scoffed, "If he were a Dunn Group executive, do you think he'd walk or ride a shared bike to work every day? Please!

Just look at his style and attitude-does he give off any executive vibes?

"Rosalie, there's something I didn't tell you.

"Connor's currently investigating Robin at Mr. Dixon's request.

"Robin's been bribing Ms. Jenning to curry favor with Ms. Dunn and other higher-ups at the Dunn Group, doing all sorts of shady things behind the scenes. "Connor told me he's already gathered dirt on Robin and has reported everything to Mr. Dixon.
