The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 921 I Promise to Forever Respect You

Outside the grand Qacalisle International Convention Center, an unsettling silence fell over the crowd.

An oppressive, almost suffocating atmosphere weighed heavily on those gathered.

Their eyes darted toward the heir to the prestigious family, drawn to her regal aura. A sudden chill rippled through the group, as if her icy presence had seeped into their very bones.

The autumn sun beat down relentlessly, amplifying the heat of the already stifling sea breeze, which seemed to carry a sense of anxious impatience.

In the distance, the late-season cicadas continued their song, oblivious to the approaching winter, adding a sense of dissonance to the scene.

Pierre's face turned ashen, his expression torn.

His once-proud stance, once filled with youthful defiance, crumbled under the weight of the moment.

With a heavy thud, he collapsed to the ground, his pride shattered by the crushing reality.

Pierre groveled before them.

Just as Kolton arrived, he kicked Pierre in the leg.

"You fool! What gave you the audacity to gamble with Mr. Ramsey? Now, you'd better fulfil your bet!"

Felix entered, his warm demeanor shining through. "What's going on, Kolton?"

Kolton immediately bowed low. "Mr. Felix, Pierre has foolishly insulted Mr. Ramsey."

Felix exchanged a glance with Robin before turning to Pierre still groveling at their feet. "Is there really someone who dares to challenge Mr. Ramsey? Show me the bet." Guards quickly presented the gambling agreement to Felix.

Pierre, with lingering defiance, spoke up. "Mr. Felix, he... he said that if the Aldridges dared to challenge him, he would crush them without hesitation!"

Felix chuckled softly.

"That's exactly right. If not for Mr. Ramsey, we'd have been gone years ago and we'd still be gone now, and in the future, too.

"In other words, the Aldridges are nothing compared to Mr. Ramsey.

"He could take down the Aldridges at any moment.

"He can even have my granddaughter, Luella. Well, if Mr. Ramsey were interested, of course."
