Alice waited in the Eastvale Development Group's lobby.

To her, Vera was nothing more than a spoiled rich kid with no ambition-a person who, she believed, respected her.

But never had she imagined that Vera would speak so harshly in front of others.

After a pause, she responded icily. "Vera, you're twisting the facts completely! "Robin asked for my help, and I only agreed because I didn't think much of him.

"Do you think I'd come all this way to ask him for something so insignificant?

"I only did what was necessary.

"Maybe you still don't grasp Robin's true intentions.

"Every move he makes is just a way to draw nearer to me. to keep grabbing my attention repeatedly," Vera sighed and shook her head. "Alice, your thinking is beyond absurd. Is it all just in your head?" Alice watched Robin's figure in the distance, a glint of sarcasm and contempt flickering in her gaze. "Do you recall how things were when I sold off the Southvale plots?

"Back then, that plot was worthless.

"Could Robin have predicted it would be so valuable now?

"Vera, it's obvious he did it just to curry favor, to get in good with the Millers. That's why he didn't hesitate to borrow money from you to buy the Southvale plots from us. "Now, I'm here to reclaim what's rightfully mine. Is there anything wrong with that? How can you accuse me of being unable to handle a loss?

"With him, winning and losing don't even apply. I'm always on top!

"And Robin? He doesn't even come close to being in my league!

Just watch, Vera-Robin will end up begging to hand the Southvale plots back to me

With a cold scoff. Alice turned and strode out of the Eastvale Development Group lobby.

Vera watched Alice walk away and sighed quietly, "Alice, someday you'll regret these words." By now. Robin had already stepped into the elevator, with Amber right behind him. Vera quickly hurried to the elevator door, calling out, Robin, let me treat you to dinner tonight!" "No time, Robin said, pressing the elevator's close button without hesitation. "Hey, hold on... "Vera's words trailed off as the elevator doors shut, and it began to ascend.

"You little tease, making things difficult for me!" Vera huffed, stomping her foot and hitting the elevator door.

"Ouch! That hurt!

"Fine, Robin. Trying to dodge me, are you? I'll just wait right here until you're done with work!"

Now, only Robin and Amber were left inside the elevator.

Robin shot a glance at Amber, who appeared unfazed. "You and Shirley are such troublemakers. You knew the Millers came to see me, yet you still made me go along with this." Amber finally let out a laugh, covering her mouth. "Mr. Ramsey, the Millers have no shame!"

"If you realized that, why didn't you just send them off right away?" Robin asked, shaking his head incredulously.

"Mr. Ramsey, I was planning to throw them out myself. But Ms. Dunn, knowing they were from the Millers, suddenly decided it'd be amusing to watch your reaction to meeting them." Robin sighed, his lips pressed into a thin line. "This is getting dull. I need something more interesting than just work."

"Absolutely!" Amber responded right away. "Mr. Ramsey, Ms. Dunn has been taking cooking lessons recently so she can prepare a meal for you."

"Really? She's learning to cook for me?" Robin recalled Shirley mentioning this just a few days prior.

Shirley didn't know how to cook at all before; is she really trying to learn as she goes?

I wonder if the food she makes will be edible.

"Yes, Mr. Ramsey, Ms. Dunn has been putting in a lot of effort lately

"Forget it! The meals those rich girls make taste worse than crap!" Before Amber could finish speaking, Robin quickly strode toward his office. Amber stood there for a moment, stunned, and murmured to herself, "What does that even mean? Is Ms. Dunn's cooking that terrible?" She walked into Shirley's office.

At that moment, Shirley was intently watching a cooking show on her computer, diligently jotting down notes in her notebook.

""Ms. Dunn, about the Millers...

Shirley raised her hand, indicating for Amber to stay quiet. "Let's not talk about that anymore, Amber. Come with me after work tonight to sample some new recipes I've picked up." Amber was taken aback.

"What's the matter? Do you have something scheduled Shirley inquired, glancing up.

"Oh no, I don't. Ms. Dunn. I get it." Amber, noticing Shirley's serious demeanor, recalled what Robin had mentioned.

Since Ms. Dann is so dedicated to her studies, the dishes she prepares probably won't be too terrible, right?

Universal Group CEO's office.

Liam was enraged, jabbing a finger at Eric and shouting. "You j'rk! Are you trying to trick me on purpose? The plots that's worth three billion with the Hamiltons is now valued at a minimum of 20 billion on the market, and you actually sold it to the Dunns for 500 million! Are you working with Robin to fool me?"

Eric replied with a hint of frustration. Liam, why are you putting the blame on me?

"On the day you asked me to arrange the sale of the Southvale plots to the Dunns, they weren't interested. Then Robin called you and told you that the value of the plots would rise the next day, but you completely disregarded it. You agreed to sell it to them for 500 million during that phone call. Don't you remember

Before Eric could finish his sentence. Liam slammed him to the ground, shouting. "You j'rk! How dare you talk back to me!

"A few days ago. I heard that Robin has beaten you up twice. That night at the Harmont Bar, you begged in front of him in public and said you wanted to be his pet. Is that true?"

Eric's face went pale with dread as he pleaded from the ground, "Liam. I didn't have any other choice at that moment

"Get out!" Liam shouted, waving his hand. "Leave! You worthless idiot! You've made the Hamiltons lose over 10 billion overnight and humiliated us in public. You can no longer be the vice CEO of Universal Group

Eric wished to plead for Liam's forgiveness, but instead, he was thrown out.

At that moment, Howard from the Dunn Group arrived at Liam's office.

What is he doing here!

Eric stepped aside, observing Howard trying to win Liam over through the glass door.

He suddenly recalled the gossip that Howard had lost favor with the Dunn Group.

Was he now looking for shelter with the Hamiltons?

As Liam sat in his office, he couldn't help but notice Howard's overly ingratiating demeanor. With a sneer, he remarked. "Mr. Dixon, look who decided to drop by! As the vice CEO at the Dunns, what brings you here? "So, the Dunns have cs! You

aside, and now you're here to beg for help?

"Mr. Dixon. I'm aware your family holds some influence in Brookhaven, and you're a talented graduate of Huffurd Business School. You could have achieved something much more respectable using your own and your family's capabilities

"But you went all the way to Harmonfield to make a living just for Shirley. You've got no self-respect at all!"

Liam scoffed and added, "What's the matter? Did your plan backfire?

"Shirley ditched you, and you got kicked out of the Dunn Group, hahaha!

"Now, tell me, what brings you here?"

Howard held back his anger and replied, "Mr. Hamilton, feel free to look down on me!

"It looks like your last plan didn't work out either!

"We're all reasonable people here, so there's no need to act so arrogant.

"Right now, we share a common enemy, so let's think this through. I didn't come here to plead with you: I'm here to propose a partnership!

"If you're going to treat me like this, then I must have overestimated you. I'm out of here!

With that. Howard turned to leave.

"Hold on a minute! Do you think you can undermine me, Liam Hamilton, just like that? You can't just bark at me and walk away!"

Howard halted and shot back with a sneer. "Mr. Liam, you're known for being charming and humble in Harmonfield. I never imagined you could be so crude and contemptible!"

Liam scoffed, "Howard, everyone in Harmonfield knows I have feelings for Shirley. You should really be

my

rival in this situation. Do you honestly think I would team up with you against the Dunns?"

Howard shook his head and replied, "Liam, you're incredibly two-faced! Even now, you're still pretending while talking to me.

"Ever since you came back to Harmonfield five years ago, your first goal was to scheme against the Dunns to take their place as the wealthiest family.

"How did Timothy end up sick? Who tipped off Norris, the Dunns' rival back then?

"Mr. Liam, I'm sure you know who's behind all this, don't you?"

Liam rose from his chair, shooting a frosty glare at Howard. "Are you trying to investigate me?"

Howard didn't respond to the question but continued, "Mr. Liam, with your level of intelligence, why would you give up everything for Shirley?

"I came back to Harmonfield to be with Shirley. I've had feelings for her for many years, and her safety is my priority!

crom the moment Timothy had his accident, I suspected something was off, I won't elaborate on what

happened after that."

Liam fell silent for a while, then approached Howard with a knowing chuckle, "Interesting. Since you already knew I was planning to confront the Dunns, why didn't you inform Drake?"
