Chapter 227

Chapter 227 Eliminate Robin

Alice had come hoping to impress the Quinns, but instead, Kyler had humiliated her. She was furious.

This whole mess was because of Robin.

If that jerk hadn't disrupted the celebration, Kyler wouldn't have lost his temper, and she wouldn't have been kicked out of the hotel by the president of the Martial Alliance. She could have made some valuable connections among Brookhaven's elite.

Yesterday, she had gone to great lengths to get two invitations to this high-profile event from Liam, but things had turned out like this. She'd planned to expand her social network and even hand out invitations for her engagement to Zachary next week. Now, with the Brookhaven Martial Alliance celebration ruined, that plan had completely fallen apart.

Standing outside the hotel entrance, Alice grew angrier with each passing thought.

"What's wrong, Alice? Let's go," Zachary said, noticing her scowl and guiding her toward the parking lot.

Alice sighed. "Zachary, where are the engagement invitations?"

Zachary pointed at his assistant behind them. "They're in the bag. Since the event didn't happen, we couldn't hand them out."

"It's all Robin's fault!" Alice seethed, glaring at Robin, who was a short distance ahead.

When she spotted Daphne walking beside him, her eyes lit up. "Zachary, look! There's Ms. West! Let's go give her an invitation."

Zachary snapped his fingers, excited. "Oh, I nearly forgot about that."

"Alice, we should give Robin one too. How could our engagement party be complete without him? Hahaha..."

Alice chuckled along with him. "Great idea, Zachary! I want him there to see the grandeur of our engagement."

"That day, you have to make it extravagant!" Alice added, her eyes glinting. "I want Robin to feel crushed, to know he could never have someone like me. Let him see that I'm someone he'll never possess! Hahaha..."

Zachary looked toward Robin with a mocking smile. "I can already picture Robin's face when he sees you as my bride utterly devastated."

Alice sneered. "Then he'll finally understand that he and we aren't even from the same world. Let's go; we should catch up to them."

Zachary and Alice picked up the pace.

"Ms. West, hello!" Alice greeted Daphne respectfully as she and Robin stopped in front of them.

Daphne gave Alice a cold glance, saying nothing.
