The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 919

Chapter 919 Her Beauty Beyond Compare
Cyril stood still for a moment, taken aback.

The Aldridge family—a name synonymous with prestige and power—was a realm he hadn't yet entered.

And yet, here he was, standing at the convention center.

He glanced first at Robin, then at the contract in his secretary's hand.

With a shrug, he muttered, "Mr. Ramsey, I think there's been some mistake."

Robin smiled faintly. "Oh? Seems like today's high-stakes gamble will certainly be one to watch."

"Alright, Mr. Ramsey, I'll leave you to it," Cyril said, eager to avoid further conversation. He quickly made his way toward Pierre.

"Mr. Pierre, let's go meet the Aldridge family head, and when the time is right, please introduce me to them."

Pierre gave him a reassuring pat. "Don't worry, Mr. Higgins. Mr. Felix and Ms. Luella are both very kind. Let's head over."

The crowd in the reception hall parted quickly, all eyes turning toward Pierre and Robin.

After a brief pause, Pierre, clearly excited, announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, in just a moment, you'll be in the presence of the Aldridges' heiress, the unmatched beauty, Ms. Luella."

He shot a playful look at Robin. "Let's go, Mr. Ramsey. I hope this gamble brings us all great enjoyment."

With that, he sped toward the entrance, his steps quick and filled with anticipation, as though racing to meet a long-lost lover. His every movement exuded excitement.

Watching him, the crowd couldn't help but feel envious.

Sometimes, a stroke of good luck can lead to disaster, but when fortune smiles, it lights up a person's entire life.

Pierre's enthusiastic strides seemed to create an aura of happiness around him.

Cyril turned to Robin, grinning. "Mr. Ramsey, after you."

Together with Jethro and the others, they followed toward the entrance.

Jackson, visibly anxious, leaned over to Jethro and whispered, "General Quintana, based on Pierre's behavior, it seems real. What do you think we should do?

"According to the bet between Mr. Ramsey and Pierre, if we lose, we'll have to withdraw from the competition. How will we explain this back home?"

Jethro chuckled softly. "Mr. Ramsey never takes risks unless he's sure. That Pierre's no match for Mr. Ramsey!"

Jackson stood frozen, watching Robin, Jethro, and the rest head toward the entrance, his mind racing. Can Mr. Ramsey really force the Aldridges—the world's elite—to bow down?

His thoughts were interrupted when he noticed that Robin had suddenly stopped just before the entrance.

His heart skipped a beat. What is happening?

Robin had paused to check a message from the Dark Web.

Annie had been ordered by Dark Web headquarters to leave Qacalisle Island and head to Sakurania.

Her mission was to infiltrate the Rivers family under the pretense of applying for a job.

She had to locate surveillance equipment that had disappeared from Dragon Manor years ago.

As Robin read the message, it became clear this was Old Fred's plan.

For years, Robin's grandfather's personal bodyguard had quietly investigated the truth behind the catastrophe at Dragon Manor.

Six months ago, the World of Darkness had gathered its top assassins in Dragon Ridge Valley, all under Old Fred's command.

His plan was to set the stage for Robin to eliminate them.

Dark Web's elite killers surrounded Dragon Ridge Valley, ensuring Robin could wipe out these powerful figures.

These were the individuals Old Fred had confirmed as responsible for the massacre two decades ago.

Blood debts must be repaid with blood—that was the way of the world.

By sending Annie to infiltrate Sakurania, the plan was to uncover the identities of the assassins involved.
