As Shawn’s enormous hand swung toward Shirley, the crowd at the Violeterest Club collectively gasped.
Many spectators turned away, unable to watch the scene unfold.
Smack!
A sharp slap echoed through the quiet Violeterest Riding and Shooting Entertainment Center!
Shawn was propelled through the air, crashing heavily onto the ground several feet away.
Crack!
The marble floor of the viewing area cracked under the force of the impact!
Shirley remained unscathed, her composure intact, though her eyes revealed her astonishment.
Amber’s eyes widened in shock, her mouth open in disbelief, frozen in place.
The hand that struck Shawn belonged to Robin.
“Why are you so hell–bent on being a d*ck?” Robin remarked, wiping his hands with a towel handed to him, by a server, his gaze filled with disdain and mockery.
Shawn, sprawled on the floor from Robin’s slap, had lost a few teeth and was disoriented, his cars ringing.
He struggled to speak, barely conscious.
The riding and shooting center was eerily silent, with tension hanging thick in the air.
After a moment of oppressive quiet, the crowd began to murmur.
“Wow! This guy is amazing! He just took down the Devil. Rygar’s top enforcer!”
“Is this real? I’ve never seen anyone handle the Devil like that in Harmonfield!”
This guy is incredibly bold. He’s definitely in for a tough time.”
Alice, observing the spectacle, was initially stunned, but soon a sneer of contempt spread across her face.
“Hmph! Robin, do you really think that just because the Dunns support you you can challenge Rygar’s top man?” she scoffed. “You’re asking for trouble!”
Zachary’s face lit up with a malicious grin.
Meanwhile, Vera was stunned by the events that had just transpired.
Despite the recklessness of Robin’s actions, she couldn help but admire his bravery.
Taking on someone like the Devil was impressive, ever if it bordered on foolishness. She found herself reassessing Robin, now seeing him in a new, more favorable light.

“How dare you touch me! Do you even know who I am I’ll make sure you leave here on a strede furt Shawn roared, spitting blood as two of his subordinates helped him up.
Robin barely glanced at Shawn, unperturbed. “Do I need to know who you are to deal with you? You’re guer all talk, aren’t you?”
“Alright, you little punk! You’re going to pay for this! You’re dead meat!” Shawn roared, his anger evident as he pointed a finger at Robin.
As Shirley processed the situation, she realized the complexity of their predicament
The meeting at the Violetcrest Club was meant to clarify investment boundaries.
The conflict involved Rygar’s investment project encroaching on the Dunns territory,
When the agreement was first made, all parties had clearly defined their business areas, including commercial malls, children’s entertainment centers, resorts, and luxury villa developme
The surrounding area of this project was originally given to the Universal Group owned by the Hamiltons, The initial agreement had clearly divided business areas: the east for villas. the south for commercial and residential developments, and the west and north for office buildings and major markets.
However, Rygar had secretly arranged with the Hamiltons to acquire the southern zone, planting to introduce nightclubs, bars, and gambling establishments, which clashed with residential and educational
arcas.
Shirley had tried repeatedly to negotiate with Rygar, but to no avail.
That was why they had planned this meeting to continue negotiations at the council of the four investors
It was already difficult to reach a consensus in the origifal circumstances, but now, with the coelli escalating to involve Rygar’s enforcer, today’s meeting would probably end on a sour note as
If not handled properly, it could lead to an outright confrontation between the Dunns and Ryga
Realizing the situation was beyond repair for today, Shirley stepped in front of Robin.
“Shawn, this matter has nothing to do with him. Any grievances should be directed at the Des Were waiting!”
Robin smiled coldly, shaking his head.
Shawn was beneath his concern.
Besides his talk, he had little real influence.
When faced with a formidable opponent, Shawn would quickly back down.
Robin didn’t take him seriously at all.
“Who’s this guy, Ms. Dunn? Why are you defending him?”
“Even with the Dunns‘ power, you can’t match Rygar’s methods when it comes to the derworld”

Robin, enjoying the led Shirley’s perfome While standing behind her, was in high spirits.
Although Shirley and the Launna rowed him for his help, it was exenmendable that they would protect him in such a situation
Besides, when he had propened the wager with Lachary wolving the tannd 30–billion project, Shirley had immediately agreed without hesitation
The Dunns were known for their reliablity and integrity
Robin had grown up in a ruthless environment and preferred anorting with those who showed loyalty and courage
Thus, he had no reservations about getting inolved in this, seeing as he had nothing else to do
As Shawn continued to rant, Robin was already moving toward him
Before anyone could react, Robin grabbed Shawn by the neck, lifting him off the ground and began delivering a series of sla
From a distance, Alice clutched Zachary’s arm, her hear pounding wildly,
Is this idiot risking his life to impress me?
Robin, no matter what you do, I can’t respect a brute without fine!
Vera, shocked by the display, held onto her clothes to tady herself
After a few slaps, Robin, finding the situation dull, threw Shawn to the ground.
Shawn’s men dared not intervene, huddling together.
It took Shawn some time to regain his senses.
Looking at his scattered teeth on the ground, Shawn snarled, “You’re finished! You’ll pay for this
Robin took a towel from a server, shrugging Enough with your threats. It’s getting boring
“Go ahead, call for help! Ill be right here!”

Kita, observing the scene with a cold gaze, now saw Robin’s boldness with of amusement.
Not only can he fight, but he also knows how to provoke trouble.
Asking Shawn to call for backup?
He’s basically saying that he doesn’t even take the underground kingpin of Harmonfield seriously!
That’s a direct challenge to Rygar, a blatant provocation.

The memory of being saved from four desperate robbers and the shock of that moment was still fresh in her mind.
“Alright, you’ll see. Soon you’ll understand what it means to regret for a lifetime!” Shawn said, enduring hi pain as he dialed Rygar’s number.
In the distance, Zachary and others felt a sense of excitement. “This guy’s hit a brick wall today. He’s in for a world of trouble. He must have lost his mind.”
Alice shook her head, her eyes filled with scorn. “Maybe tearing up the engagement stirred his pride, made him feel like he needed to prove himself. Hah! How pathetic!
Zachary sneered, “He actually hit Rygar’s enforcer! I don’t think he’ll leave the club alive today.
“Rygar’s people built their reputation on such ruthless methods. In Harmonfield, only Ms. West from Violeteres, has dared to confront them so directly.
“Today, even the Dunns might get caught up in this mess. What a troublemaker!”
At this moment, Shawn had connected with Rygar, embellishing his account of the attack.
“Mr. Rygar, I’ve been assaulted! This kid even claimed he’d take you on if you showed up!”
“Is that so?” Rygar’s voice on the other end was filled with contempt.
“Who does he think he is, disregarding the rules and acting as he wishes in Harmonfield?
“Alright. Let him know I’ll be at Violetcrest soon.
“Oh, and tell Ms. West that I have some business to handle at her place today.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen blood. I’m eager to find out what he’s made of, daring to mess with me!”
