Chapter 734 Count Your Blessings
Robin’s hand shot out, pulling the gun from his coat. The whole room went still.
Flint didn’t move. His eyes were cold, unreadable.
Then, the silence shattered. Screams filled the café, sharp and full of panic. All of a sudden, the second floor became unnervingly quiet.
Marrisa and the others were frozen, their minds struggling to catch up with what they had just witnessed
What had happened? How had Robin gone from an argument to pulling a gun?
Before anyone could make sense of it, the sharp crack of the shot rang out..
The bullet sped through the air, slicing past Melissa’s car, barely missing Flint’s face.
It flew across the room, striking a man standing by the stairs. The bullet hit his forehead with brutal force.
His head exploded. Blood splattered everywhere. The hole left behind was the size of a small fist
The other customers dropped to the ground, scrambling for cover.
“Someone’s dead!” The café erupted into chaos, screams echoing louder than before.
Melissa didn’t react right away. She grabbed her head, as if the pain there could somehow stop the rest of her from falling apart. Then, in one swift motion, she collapsed to the floor.
The shock surged through her. It hit like a tidal wave, and she couldn’t hold it back. A wet patch spread under her. She hadn’t meant to, but fear had made her lose control. She’d actually wet herself.
She couldn’t believe it. The guy she thought she could push around–Robin–had a gun.
Her eyes locked onto him. He stood perfectly still, his face as calm as a morning breeze.
A cold fear wrapped around her chest, squeezing tighter with every second.
This man was dangerous. The way he killed without flinching–it was pure terror.
Was he even human? Or some kind of monster?
Flint, however, was unchanged. He still stood where he had before, as if nothing had happened. His face gave nothing away.
Robin’s actions–shooting a man right there–seemed to mean nothing to Flint. It was like he was used to
Zayn and Michelle were frozen, their faces pale. Sweat dripped from their brows.
They had seen Robin cause chaos before, but this was different.
A single word, a single action, and he could end a life without hesitation.

Melissa had no clue what she had just stepped into.

If she had seen Robin in action before, Zayn was certain that even if Robin slapped her, she wouldn’t have dared to say a word.
Zayn had been smart to step away froin Melissa just moments before,
If he hadn’t, the bullet Robin fired might have passed right by them.
The thought made his stomach twist in unease.
After a short, loud uproar, the security guards from Cafe Lake Dragonia swarmed up to the second floor.
They quickly formed two rows, standing close to Flint, waiting for his command,
Several of them kept their eyes trained on Robin, who still held the gun firmly in his hand. Slowly, they began moving closer to him.
Each guard was armed with a stun baton, their intention clear: disarm Robin, one way or another. “Drop the gun!” one of them shouted, his voice sharp.
But Flint’s voice rang out, cool and commanding, silencing everything. “Back off, all of you!” he snapped.
The guards stopped in their tracks, confused.
“But Flint, he just killed someone in our café!” one of them said urgently.
Flint didn’t flinch. His expression remained as cold as stone. That man deserved to die,” he said flatly.
The head of security, hesitant but loyal, stepped forward. “Flint…
Flint’s expression turned grim as he pointed to the dead man on the floor. “Find out who he is,” he commanded, his voice quiet but sharp.
The security captain nodded and motioned for two guards to approach the body. They moved quickly. checking the man’s pockets and clothing
A moment later, they pulled out several weapons: a set of shurikens and a small blade. These were not the tools of an ordinary thug. Only the Sakurania elite assassins used such items.
The captain’s eyes widened as the pieces fell into place. He understood now.
Flint had known exactly who the man was.
Flint scanned the room, his eyes sweeping over the shocked faces of the remaining guests.
“Everyone, please listen,” he said, his voice calm but commanding. “We’ve had a little incident here tonight. To make up for the disturbance, I’ll be covering all your bills.”
“There’s still some cleanup to do, so for now, the evening is over. But don’t worry. Next time you visit, you’ll get a 20 percent discount.”
“When you leave, please stop by the front desk to pick up your voucher.”

The guests didn’t need to be told twice. They gathered their things quickly and left, eager to escape the strange tension that hung in the air.
The sound of the gunshot upstairs had reached the lobby, drawing the attention of the guests below. They stared up at the second–floor stairwell, wondering what was happening.
nun
Catherine, Wendy, Kimberly, and the others found themselves swept up in the crowd.
As they reached the second floor, Wendy’s eyes brightened. She quickly grabbed Catherine’s arm.
“Catherine, I think Robin’s over there with the group causing all the trouble.”
Catherine’s eyes widened. “Robin’s involved in this? Lets go see.”
She pushed her way through the crowd. trying to spot him, but it was like moving through a sea of people.
No matter how hard she looked, she couldn’t see him. The crowd was too thick, and she couldn’t get any
closer.
Frustrated, she stamped her foot. “What is it with all these people? Why can’t anyone just stay home tonight? Why come here just to drink coffee?”
Kimberly laughed “Catherine, why are you so worked up? Robin’s fine. No one dares mess with him. If they do, they’re asking for trouble. You’re getting all nervous over nothing.”
Catherine glared at Kimberly. Tm not nervous! I just think these people are crazy. Don’t they have anything better to do than crowd in here for coffee?”
Wendy gave Catherine’s shoulder a reassuring pat. “Catherine, take it easy. You came here to drink coffee too. Why shouldn’t other people be doing the same?”
“Relax. Your guy isn’t in any real danger. You’re so worked up. It’s like women in love get all crazy.”
Catherine’s checks flushed, her face going bright red. “Are you two making fun of me? Get lost!” she snapped
Kimberly, seeing Catherine get all frazzled, covered her mouth and laughed. “Okay, okay. Let’s just get through the crowd before Catherine loses it completely
Flint stood still, his eyes fixed on Melissa, who remained sitting on the floor, dazed. “Ms. Field,” he said in a cold voice, “Are you still here because you have more demands?”
It took Melissa a moment to respond, her mind still trying to process everything. “No… no more demands,” she muttered, her voice barely audible
Flint let out a sharp, dismissive laugh. This mess started because of you. You’ll pay three times the cost of everything at the front desk. Now, get out of here.”
“Okay okay.” Melissa whispered. She scrambled to her feet and ran out, trying to make her way through
the crowd.
As she pushed through the crowd, she collided with Catherine.

Catherine’s eyes widened when she saw Melissa’s bloodied face. “What happened to you? What’s going on?”
Melissa, seeing Catherine, Wendy, and Kimberly standing in front of her, immediately broke down in
tears.
“Catherine, Wendy, Kimberly… I’ve had the worst day
Catherine took a step back, avoiding Melissa’s attempt to hug her. “What’s going on? Tell me what happened.”
Melissa wiped her tears, her voice shaking with frustration. “Robin… he bullied me. He hit me!
“Robin?” Catherine’s face, once calm, hardened.
“He hit you? If he hit you, you should count yourself lucky!”
In a swift motion, Catherine slapped Melissa across the face. “If I had been there, I would have killed you!”
“Get out! If you or anyone from the Fields ever dares to disrespect Robin again, I’ll wipe your whole family off the map!”
Melissa froze, her eyes wide.
She never imagined Catherine would know Robin. Even less did she expect her to go this far for him.
She looked to Wendy and Kimberly, hoping for some help. “Wendy, Kimberly…“she mumbled.
Wendy gave her a casual shrug. “Melissa, Robin’s Catherine’s hero. Plus, he’s a Major General in the Special Forces.
“Good thing you didn’t send your butler to fix this, Wendy added with a grin “Otherwise, even if your family somehow gets ten times its power right away, it wouldn’t be enough to save you from getting crushed
Kimberly nodded, a wicked smile on her lips. “Exactly. You should be thankful. Next time, maybe tone down the arrogance.”
Melissa stood there, stunned, her mind racing.
How had she gotten tangled up with someone so powerful?
All her boasting about money and connections seemed hollow now.
In the presence of someone like Robin–someone so calm, so controlled–she was nothing but an ant,
She glanced at Catherine, Wendy, and Kimberly–rich entitled girls who were all friends with Robin. then, without another word, she turned and ran.
Tears blurred her vision as she fled, her voice barely a whisper.
“What is going on today?”
