Alice shook her head and chuckled.
“Vera, come on, you really play your part well. What you and Robin are doing means nothing
to me.
“No matter how he appears to others, a man like Robin will never have a place in my life!”
Vera fell silent for a moment, looking at Alice with disdain. “Alice, are you certain you won’t regret saying that?”
“Pfft!” Alice scoffed. “Of course I’m sure! No matter how impressive he tries to appear, it’s all fake.”
Vera chuckled softly. “Can’t you see that since Robin arrived in Harmonfield, the dynamics of the upper–class families here have changed dramatically?”
Alice almost burst out laughing. “Robin came and could change the entire upper–class society of Harmonfield? Vera, you really should go to the hospital!”
Ignoring her, Vera walked to the large window and gazed into the distance, murmuring to herself.
“Do you think the Dunns have the guts and capability to control the multi–billion–dollar Southvale plots project?
“Do you think that in the competition for Eastvale Ecological, when the Dunn Group was squeezed by Rygar and the Hamiltons, the Dunns could still have an absolute advantage
under such circumstances?
“What is the situation in Harmonfield today?
“The Dunns not only have taken the lead in the overall direction of the Eastvale Business District but have also successfully integrated a significant amount of capital from Harmonfield into the strategic framework of the Dunns‘ Eastvale Business District.
“This means that the Dunns can’mobilize hundreds of billions in capital solely for the development of Eastvale Ecological!
“What does this mean?
“It means that there is a powerful force backing the Dunns!

Alice still laughed mockingly. “And what does that have to do with the Mr. Ramsey you mentioned? All you’re saying really proves one thing: Old Mr. Dunn is the true power. Harmonfield.”

Vera hesitated for a moment and sighed softly. “Alice, honestly, I shouldn’t be having this conversation with you. In a way, it feels like a loss on my part.
“But, you’re my best friend. The reason I’m telling you this is that I genuinely want to help you..
“I understand your current situation very well.”
At this point, Vera paused. “You may never be lovers with Robin, but at least you could be good friends.
“If that’s possible, all your dreams could come true in no time.
“The things we’ve both worked so hard for could be achieved with just a flick of his hand, just as I find myself now-”
Alice scoffed, cutting her off. “Vera, you say you’re my best friend, but it feels like you’re trying to push me into a deep pit.
“Robin is nothing but a nobody with no connections. He came to Harmonfield, initially hoping to align himself with the Millers, but after I called off the engagement, he somehow managed to trick Shirley and the Dunns into trusting him.
“Even if he’s doing well with the Dunns, he’s still just an employee!
“And yet,
he carries hims
like he’s some kind of big shot. It’s both ridiculous and sad!
“Vera, if Robin is truly the big shot you say he is, why don’t you want to follow him instead of trying to push him on me?”
Vera was taken aback. “Alice, of course I want to be with Robin, but would he even notice me?
“If he were to come to me with a marriage contract, I would follow him without hesitation!
“I wouldn’t care about his status!
“I know that Robin is one of the most loyal and compassionate men in the world!
“Even though he seems indifferent to everyone and everything on the surface, if you are sincere with him, he will repay you a thousand times over. The rewards he gives you will be beyond your wildest dreams!
“Just look at the Dunns now, Abyssal Dominion, and even me! Not to mention the Wrights of

With those thoughts, a smirk of disdain appeared on Alice’s lips.
Ha, Vera, you want me to be worse off than you, stuck with that loser Robin!
I won’t be fooled by your games!
At precisely ten o’clock, a secretary sent by Amber arrived with two VIP tickets to Ivy’s
concert.

Alice held the VIP tickets marked with the logos of the Dunn Group and the Silva Group, her hands trembling with excitement.
However, alongside her thrill, there was a pang of jealousy.
What made Vera worthy of standing alongside Shirley as a sponsor for Ivy’s concert?
This stark contrast left her feeling uneasy.
Without even saying a word to Vera, Alice left the Silva Group.
Once outside the building, she deliberately stopped by a high–end boutique to transform her look.
Ivy’s concert was filled with billionaires from Harmonfield and influential leaders from various sectors.
While Alice was excited to attend the concert, her primary goal was to network and build valuable connections, gearing up for her upcoming role at the Miller Group.
After a productive afternoon, she felt a sense of accomplishment.
She and Vera drove to the concert at the Infinity Tower in Southvale District.
On the way, Zachary called.
“Alice, my parents have agreed to.

“Let’s go wedding dress shopping next week and pick a date for the engagement ceremony.
think?” What do you
Alice thought for a moment. Zachary, Old Mr. Wright’s recovery banquet is next week. It wouldn’t be appropriate for us to hold our engagement ceremony either before or on the same day.
“How about we schedule our engagement ceremony for the day after Old Mr. Wright’s banquet?”

After hanging up, Alice smiled and said, “Vera, I’m about to get engaged to Mr. Gill. Aren’t you going to congratulate me?”
Vera seemed a bit surprised, pausing for a moment before replying with a smile, “Alice, of course I want to congratulate you! You’re about to get married, and I’m genuinely happy for you!”
Alice locked eyes with Vera and teased, “Vera, are you not happy because I’m not marrying Robin as you hoped and choosing to marry Mr. Gill?”
Vera chuckled softly. “Why would I? Alice, as long as you’re happy, I’m truly supportive of
