The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 1178 Even if I Let the Whole World Down, I Will Never Disappoint You!

Finished

Borealis was a place of relentless fury–an endless storm raged on, with snowflakes swirling in the air and winds howling like wild animals.

The temperature rarely rose above -22 F, creating a harsh and unforgiving landscape.

Robin arrived in Borealis at exactly 6:00 PM.

Snow Valley was still 250 miles away. There were no paved roads or vehicles in sight–only rough, inhospitable land that could only be crossed on foot.

Beyond the next 20 miles, the land would become a barren wasteland. There would be no phone signals, no Wi–Fi–just an endless expanse of cold, eerie silence.

Robin glanced at his watch. Shirley should have arrived in Harmonfield by now.

His thoughts drifted toward her, and just then, his phone buzzed, signaling an incoming call.

It was Shirley.

Her radiant face filled the screen, and Robin felt a warmth spreading through his chest.

To love someone deeply was a happiness that surpassed simply being loved.

In the middle of this frigid, freezing world, the thought of Shirley’s love made Robin feel as though a gentle spring breeze had washed over him.

He answered the video call, and in an instant, his beloved appeared before him.

Though the image flickered and the connection was weak, Robin could clearly see Shirley’s bright smile and the happiness glowing in her eyes.

“Robin, I think I’ve already become unable to live without you,” Shirley confessed, her voice sweet and soft, filled with a sincerity she could not hide.

“I used to be able to control the longing I felt for you. I’d throw myself into my work to keep my mind off of

you.

“But now … now, there’s no space left in my heart for anything other than you.

“Robin, do you think this is what people call falling in love?”

She giggled nervously, a hint of shyness in her voice before she added, “I’ve said so much. Don’t laugh at me, alright?”

Shirley couldn’t hold back any longer. She poured out her feelings, surprised at how bold she had become in this moment–never imagining she would speak such vulnerable, tender words.

“Robin, I really regret not going with you to Snow Valley.
