“Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates!” Ashley gasped, his surprise evident.

“That’s the most opulent villa in all of Harmonfield. Zachary, you really know how to pick them!
“Alison, did you know? This villa is valued at four billion! It’s the priciest luxury estate around.
“The owner remains mysterious. Since it was built, no one has seen their face.
“Rumors abound. Some say it belongs to a reclusive billionaire!
“I must see this mysterious villa for myself.
“Just for that, I will attend your engagement ceremony!
Alice caught Ashley’s excitement and turned her gaze to Robin, who maintained an unreadable expression.
“Robin, didn’t you insist that Villa One is yours? Seems like you are the reclusive billionaire they’re all gossiping about!” She chortled.
“Sure, if that amuses you.” Robin refused to elaborate and walked past them without a glance.
“Ha! I thought you’d cling to your story about that villa!” Alice shook her head, a mocking smile playing on her lips.
Alison pointed at Robin’s back and asked, “You guys and him are
?”
Ashley quickly responded, “Oh, I forgot to introduce you. This is my coworker, flight attendant Alison Ferguson.
“Alison, meet my friends, Zachary Gill and Alice Miller!”
Alison offered a polite handshake. “Hello. Ms. Miller, it seems you and Robin share some history?”
Zachary shrugged nonchalantly. “Robin was betrothed to Alice, a union arranged by their grandfathers. The Miller family recently canceled it.”
Alison’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You actually ended your engagement with Robin?”
Alice sneered, her voice dripping with disdain, “We are from different social classes, so it was only logical to call it off.
“I can’t be forced into marrying Robin, a broke nobody, simply due to some outdated family pact.”
“You consider Robin a nobody?” Alison was taken aback, surprised by Alice’s arrogance.
Observing Alice, she realized this was no joke.
She laughed at Alice in silence.
Another haughty, foolish woman!

Just like Anna from Terenova, who thought she was superior to everyone else.
She insisted she and Robin were not of the same caliber.

Little did she realize, in Robin’s presence, she was utterly insignificant. His status and background were realms beyond her reach.
I can’t believe you’d think he was beneath you!
What an intriguing thought!
Robin had declared that Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates was his, and perhaps it truly was.
A man of his stature would not resort to idle boasts or mere pretense.
Alison had glimpsed a premier villa in Terenova, and finding such a grand property in Harmonfield was hardly a revelation.
But the couple before her seemed blissfully unaware of their own naivety.
Ah, the twists and turns that awaited on the day of their engagement!
Alison felt a spark of curiosity ignite within her.
She watched Robin’s form recede, her thoughts a blend of intrigue and a hint of bitterness.
Was her view of the world too limited?
Noticing Alison’s grace and charm, Zachary broke the silence, “Ms. Ferguson, on the day Alice and I engaged, I would be honored if you would serve as her maid of honor.”
Alison shook her head, her expression apologetic. “I appreciate the offer, but I may have other plans and can’t assure you I’ll be there.
“Besides, such a luxurious venue makes me a bit uneasy.
“I’ll try to attend your engagement, but as for being a maid of honor, I must decline.”
Alison had no intention of provoking Robin’s anger.
Though she couldn’t grasp how Robin’s villa could be the chosen venue for Alice’s engagement, she envisioned the day vividly.
If Alice indeed held her ceremony at Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates, the outcome was all too
clear.
Zachary nodded thoughtfully. “That’s perfectly understandable. Ms. Ferguson, I hope you can join us. You won’t want to miss seeing Harmonfield’s most luxurious estate.”
Alice observed Alison’s gaze as it returned to Robin. “Ms. Ferguson, I saw you walking with Robin earlier. Are you two acquainted?”
Alison offered a gentle smile. “We shared a brief encounter on a flight. I wouldn’t classify it as knowing him.”

“I feared he might have deceived you once more, Alice replied, a hint of mockery in her tone.
“Ms. Ferguson, it’s wise to steer clear of men like him.
“You might not realize this, but after I ended our engagement, he attempted to win me back by fabricating
a success story. He went so far as to fool two of the richest women in Harmontell
Alison felt a bittersweet smile rise.
If Robin had truly tried to fool her, it would be her fortune.
Yet, like Alice, she had shown her own folly,
What a laughable notion to view such a powerful man as merely a gigolo!
Ashley, catching the tone of their conversation, grinned. Ms. Miller, it was a wise choice to break off that engagement with that loser Robin!
“Did I mention what I saw in Terenova? He was involved with a wealthy woman in her 60s.”
“He’s with an older woman?” Alice shook her head in disbelief.
“Has he really made a name for himself in international business? Ha!
“This is utterly ridiculous!”
Ashley shook her head, his eyes brimming with disdain. “That kind of man is beyond redemption! To secure a life of case, he attaches himself to someone who could be his grandmother. It’s revolting!
“Alison, after hearing what Ms. Miller and Mr. Gill said, you should understand Robin’s true nature.
“Don’t hold onto any false hopes!”
Just as Ashley finished speaking, he abruptly stopped.
Pointing toward Robin, he exclaimed, “Look over there! What’s happening?”
