Simone’s voice, though not loud, shattered the calm of the Island Restaurant, drawing attention with its sharp tone.

Bored tourists, who had been minding their own business, started to take notice of her incessant chatter about the arranged marriage.

Their eyes quickly shifted to the striking man sitting across from her. He seemed to command the room without even trying–with a face that could only be described as chiseled, a powerful yet elegant build, and an undeniable aura of sophistication that made him seem otherworldly.

His eyes, deep and magnetic, seemed to contain the secrets of the cosmos–the stars, the oceans, and even the very heavens themselves. He wasn’t just any man; he exuded an almost divine presence, as if he were a celestial being, one that even the gods themselves might bow down to.

So how could this woman, sitting before him, speak so dismissively? To treat such a captivating man as if he were nothing but a naive fool, chasing unattainable dreams? If anyone was out of place here, it was her.

Several powerful and wealthy women in the restaurant exchanged looks, clearly ready to act.

They were waiting for Simone to make another misstep, and if she did, they would use their influence to ensure she paid for it.

“You’ve got the wrong person,” Robin finally said, his eyes lifting from his phone to address her.

“Are you actually brushing me off?” Simone froze, caught off guard by his indifferent tone.

She had expected him to jump up, clear the table, and eagerly stand at her side, ready to comply with her every whim. But that’s not what was happening.

Her temper flared. Gripping her water glass, she slammed it onto the table, causing it to rattle violently.

Robin raised an eyebrow. “I’ll say it one more time. You’ve mistaken me for someone else. Leave. Now.”

Simone narrowed her eyes, sizing him up before a sly smile spread across her face. “Haha. I see. You’re embarrassed now, aren’t you? Or is it my beauty and my family background that has you tongue–tied?

“My father mentioned you had some accomplishments from your time at Hawklore,” she continued, leaning in with a playful gleam in her eyes. “Although your background might not be the most prestigious, my father doesn’t mind that.”
