The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918 You're Lucky I Don't Kill You
Pierre's eyes gleamed with pride as he spoke about the Aldridges and Luella.

He had immersed himself so deeply in his own storytelling that he had believed it wholeheartedly. His voice and gestures were so convincing that even he began to believe the narrative.

"Ladies and gentlemen, two springs ago, I had the immense privilege of meeting the stunning Ms. Luella for the first time.

"I was completely speechless in that moment!

"I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that someone so breathtakingly beautiful could exist.

"Her beauty completely captivated me."

By this point, Pierre was lost in his own world, speaking as if he were recounting the greatest love story of his life, radiating a happiness that was almost tangible.

Even more astonishing, this rare beauty was none other than Luella, heires of the Aldridges—the wealthiest and most enigmatic family in the world.

"Do you want to know what happened next?" Pierre asked with a smug grin, looking at Robin. "It was love at first sight! Ms. Luella fell for me instantly too!"

The crowd exchanged glances, filled with envy.

After all, Pierre wasn't just good-looking; he was a martial arts expert, the captain of the Sea Lion Force, the king of the mercenary world, and the reigning champion of the global military skills competition.

With such impressive credentials, they figured it made sense that Luella would fall for him.

In his self-induced daydream, Pierre felt as if he were standing at the top of the world. Surrounded by compliments and admiration, he felt invincible, his posture exuding the kind of power someone might expect from the son-in-law of the most prestigious family in the world.

He looked at Robin and the others with a gaze that seemed to say he could disregard even the leaders of superpowers.

"I have some earth-shattering news," he added, his voice dripping with satisfaction. "Mr. Felix has invited me to join his ranks. In two years, when I retire, I'll become Ms. Luella's personal bodyguard captain.

"Do you realize what that means?

"It means Mr. Felix and Ms. Luella have accepted me as one of their own. I'm officially part of the Aldridge family!"

The room exploded in astonishment, the announcement landing like a bombshell. Pierre was now officially part of the Aldridges, the wealthiest family on the planet!

Such a connection carried more weight than being the president of any nation.

The mix of jealousy and awe around him made Pierre feel more powerful than even Felix himself. With a smug sneer, he turned to Robin.

"Mr. Ramsey, do you think you're brave enough to bet against me?"

The room fell silent as everyone turned their attention to Robin.

Robin, unimpressed by Pierre's boastfulness, chose to ignore him and began walking toward the exit.

"Oh, are you scared now that you've heard about my background?" Pierre taunted, as Robin walked away. "What happened to all that bravado you had earlier? Ha!

"Now that you know my ties to the Aldridges, I bet you won't say anything foolish again.

"Is this all your people do? Talk big? But when it's time to back it up, you all run away! Haha ... "

Robin paused and slowly turned around, the sound of Pierre's laughter still filling the air. "Are you sure you want to bet with me?"

Pierre's smile faltered for a moment before he broke into an even more confident laugh. "Of course! Do you dare, Mr. Ramsey?"

Just then, Mona pushed her way through the crowd and rushed to Robin.

"Mr. Ramsey, I admit I didn't notice how amazing you were before, but after taking a second look, I think you're quite charming. I may even like you now! Haha ...

"I'm here to tell you, tonight, you should invite me to dinner, and maybe after that, we can ... do something a little more fun ... "
