The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58 The Price of Misjudgment

Vera scrambled into the car, afraid that Robin would drive off without her.

“Ugh, seriously? My shoe heel broke, and you can’t even help me out a bit?”

Robin shot a glance at her bare foot, raising an eyebrow “Why are you still wearing the other shoe?”

“Uh!” Vera frozen for a moment and looked down at her feet.

This guy doesn’t care that I’ve been walking barefoot in this cold. Instead of showing some concern, he points out something so trivialt

Ihat the heck!

Doesn’t my beauty even slightly attract you?

“Ah!” Realizing this, Vera suddenly shouted.

She was nearly losing it and flung off her other shoe in frustration.

Robin shrugged. “You sure have a temper.”

With a stomp on the gas, he sped toward Ridge Road’s Four Seas Entertainment World.

Vera exhaled sharply, comforting herself that getting upset with this kind of guy only hurt herself.

“Hey, there’s an Oasis Plaza across from the Four Seas Entertainment World.”

Robin glanced over at Vera. “What are you getting at?”

She pointed at her shoe. “I mean, I can’t show up at Knox’s place wearing your man shoes, right?

“By the time we arrive, it’ll probably be close to lunchtime.

“We should buy a pair of shoes first before heading to the Davidsons’s Entertainment World. Robin nodded. “Sounds good. I’m not keen on dragging around a woman wearing slippers.”

Just then, his phone rang–it was Shirley,

“Robin, tomorrow morning, the Dunn Group is holding the on–site signing event for the Eastvale Ecological Project. You’ve got to be there.”

I’m not getting involved with your Dunn Group business,” Robin replied flatly.

Shirley continued, “We’ve established an Eastside Project Development Company, and I’ve announced you as the president

“Tomorrow at nine, the board members and executive of the new company will hold their first meeting in Conference Room No. Fat the Dunn Group. You can’t oss it

You want me to be the president of the development company? Ms. Dunn, you’re joking. I don’t know the first thing about this, and besides, I don’t

“But you have to do this, President.”

“Why? Are you doing this to make me look good? There’s really no need!” Robin replied with a smile.

“It’s not just for show, Robin. I really need your help for a while. Shirley’s voice turned almost pleading.

“I’m under so much pressure right now. After my father got sick, I took over the Dunn Group, and it’s been chaotic.

“My grandfather is aging, and his health is deteriorating. Many people are watching us closely.

“I need you to help me out for a bit.

“Recently, the Hamiltons have been making moves that are basically aimed at us.

“By publicly sabotaging Liam’s contract, you’ve kicked off a direct conflict between the Hamiltons and the

Dunns

“You can’t just stir up trouble and then run away.”

Robin hesitated, “Well… alright. But I’m not going to sit around in an office every day, and I won’t deal with boring business stuff.

Shirley chuckled quietly. “Don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of freedom. You’ll just need to show your face at some necessary occasions–like tomorrow’s board meeting; just be there for a bit.”

Robin pondered momentarily before agreeing, “Fine, since it’s that simple, I’ll be there on time.

“Wait, don’t hang up yet. I have one more thing.” Shirley said, taking a deep breath.

“Are you free tonight? Come over for dinner. My grandfather wants to invite you over.”

Robin almost said no.

But realizing that Drake likely invited him for Timothy’s health issues, he replied, “Okay, but I might be a little late.

Shirley sounded genuinely happy on the other end, her voice brightening. “Great! I’ll be waiting for you tonight.”

Listening to her sweet voice, Robin felt his grip on the steering wheel tremble slightly.

Wow, this woman has such a lovely voice!

Am I really trembling?

Looks like women can really affect my composure!
