The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 912 What Else Can You Do Besides Flaunt Your Background?

Pierre's mind went completely blank when Robin's sharp words and sudden actions hit him like a wave.

The situation was so unexpected that he had no idea how to react.

As the captain of the Sea Lion Force, a major player in his field, Pierre had never been confronted so directly or personally before.

Mona, clinging to his side, was equally stunned.

If she hadn't seen Robin pointing his finger right at Pierre's nose, she would have sworn she had misheard.

Her carefully crafted, helpless demeanor quickly shifted into shock and confusion.

She glanced at this tall, handsome man from the East again, feeling a surge of annoyance inside her. How have I been so wrong in my judgment?

She, who had always treated men as nothing more than prey, had let her guard down this time.

The presence of this man-his power and confidence-made her feel foolish for ever thinking she could mock him.

I've brought this on myself.

Caught up in her thoughts, Mona unconsciously loosened her grip on Pierre's arm.

She couldn't help but compare him to Robin.

A cold realization hit her, and she quickly recognized her mistake.

Robin was like an immovable mountain-formidable and awe-inspiring.

On the other hand, Abner, who had been quietly watching from the crowd, was also taken aback.

He had hoped to find someone weak to toy with, someone to make himself feel important in front of the regional representatives.

But the person he'd chosen to provoke was someone like Robin.

Just the day before, Robin had backed down in front of Asher, and everyone had mocked him as a blowhard and coward.

Now, it seemed like Robin had transformed into someone entirely different.

He didn't show any mercy to Pierre, no matter his reputation.

And Abner himself wasn't even anyone well-known.

Abner tried to stand but felt trapped by an invisible force.

Panic gripped him.
