The Deadly Assassin Robin

Chapter 213 Why Are You Seducing Him?

Ruby was taken aback.

What could he mean by this? He fought fiercely, pouring in five billion to win the Eternal Moonlit, and now he's giving it to me?

The entire audience at the auction was left wondering.

What exactly was going on between those two?

What kind of scene was unfolding here?

After the auctioneer confirmed Robin's decision, he directed eight staff members to carry the Eternal Moonlit reverently toward Ruby in Zone One.

All the women in the room gazed at Ruby in the spotlight, overwhelmed with envy. But she didn't seem as thrilled as they expected.

Once her initial surprise faded, her refined face revealed only contempt and anger.

Ruby slowly stood, giving a cool, disdainful look to the onlookers.

Her eyes flashed with arrogance and scorn.

The lighting operator quickly switched the plain white stage lights to an enchanting rainbow, bathing Ruby in a magical glow.

At that moment, under the colorful lights, she seemed almost ethereal!

Watching Ruby in the spotlight, Alice felt a surge of bitterness and jealousy.

That jerk, Robin, had spent five billion to buy another woman a diamond necklace?

Where did he even get that money? It must have been Daphne's!

How dare he use Ms. West's money to buy a necklace for someone else what a scoundrel!

Vera was baffled too, unable to make sense of Robin's game.

She had asked him for a gift, and he had refused, which annoyed her.

With the rainbow lights casting a soft glow, Ruby's pretty face appeared as icy as ever.

So, this fool went to such lengths to get my attention with the Eternal Moonlit necklace?

Does he think I'm so easily impressed? Well, I get it now.

From the start, he deliberately edged out Zachary, pushing up the price of Blossom Rain, hoping I'd notice him. And now, he inflated the worth of this necklace from a few billion to five billion just to give it to me.

Does he think I'll admire him for it? How absurd!

As the daughter of the Brookhaven Martial Alliance leader, I don't need some shallow man to give me what I want. Men have groveled for my favor since I was young, making fools of themselves for a chance to catch my eye. His attempts only disgust me!

With a cold smirk, Ruby turned to Robin. "You think too highly of yourself! I don't want the necklace you're offering me! "Even if you'd spent fifty billion on it, I still wouldn't be interested in you!"

The entire Rosewood Prestige Auction fell silent.

That was the confidence of the Brookhaven Martial Alliance leader's daughter.

A five-billion bid on a necklace meant nothing to her!

Robin looked up at Ruby in the spotlight. "Who said I was giving it to you?"

His words stunned the crowd.

"Exactly. When did he ever say he was giving it to Ruby?"

"Ms. Quinn jumped to conclusions."

"She's been spoiled all her life, thinking everyone will give her the best! Such a joke!" "This guy's entertaining!"

...

In the colorful spotlight, Ruby was utterly thrown off, her expression dark and furious.

Her eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.

At that moment, she wished she could pierce Robin with a knife.

From the moment she encountered him tonight, she'd been nothing but humiliated and pushed to her limit.

Hmph! He's done for! Anyone who crosses me won't end up well!

Noticing his mistake, the lighting operator quickly moved the colorful beams off Ruby and onto Alice. Everyone gasped.

It turned out that Robin had bid on the Eternal Moonlit for her!

But wait-Alice already had a boyfriend!

What was happening here?

Was this some kind of live proposal showdown?

Alice was also caught off guard.

Her hands trembled, covering her mouth in shock as she tried her best to rein in her emotions.

Robin went to such extremes just to win me over!

He spent five billion on this necklace, just because he heard Zachary wanted to propose to me!

Should I accept it, or maybe play it cool, making him beg for my acceptance?

I really can't decide!

In a fluster, Alice grabbed Vera's arm and whispered, "Vera, I can't believe Robin's pursuing me so intensely. Should I accept this necklace or ... Robin noticed the lighting mix-up and gestured toward the auctioneer, saying, "Give it to Ms. Vera Silva. It's her birthday present from me!" As he spoke, the spotlight shifted to Vera.

Alice froze, then jumped up, her glare fixed on Robin, eyes filled with resentment.

"Robin, you're so disgusting! Are you doing this just to get under my skin?

"You knew Zachary was going to propose to me today, and you staged this! Is this your idea of fun?

"Here's your chance! Tell the auctioneer who the necklace is really for, or you'll lose me forever!" The auction hall buzzed with excitement.

Robin raised an eyebrow and laughed. "Who do you think you are? This necklace is for Vera!

"Vera, if you don't want it, I'll just donate it!"

Vera was speechless, utterly shocked.

This gift was so sudden, so grand!

"I want it for sure!" Vera exclaimed, jumping to her feet.

What an extravagant guy!

It's five billion. How can you say you'll donate it?

All eyes in the Rosewood Prestige Auction locked onto Vera.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

At that moment, she became the star of the event, the most radiant presence there.

Even now, Vera found it hard to believe it was happening.

Under the vibrant lights, Vera found herself suddenly choked up, her emotions overwhelming her until tears streamed down her face. "Robin, you jerk! Why are you so good to me...

"

Ever since her mother's passing, no one had pampered her in such a way.

Robin, you j*rk! Why did you launch such a sudden surprise on me?

I wasn't prepared at all!

Caught off guard by the gesture, Vera struggled to regain her composure.

The auction hall grew quiet until spontaneous laughter and applause filled the room.

A soft rendition of the birthday song began as a staff gently offered her tissues.

After she nodded, the auctioneer called her to the stage and placed the exquisite Eternal Moonlit necklace around her neck.

At that moment, everyone realized that the once-unknown Vera was stunningly beautiful with an exquisite face and slender figure.

The legendary blue sapphire diamond necklace around her neck shone even more brightly.

It showcased her extraordinary beauty and elegance.

Instantly, everyone present was deeply attracted by her stunning charm and beauty.

Watching from afar, Alice glared with bitterness. "I can't believe you've been seducing Robin behind my back all this time!"

Vera took a long time to shake off the shock and confusion she felt.

To shine under the dazzling lights of this moment, to embrace the beauty of her youth-every woman dreamed of such things.

"

Initially, it was just a fleeting thought, something she never thought would happen to her. But now, she couldn't believe her dream was coming true! With tears brimming in her eyes, she exclaimed, "Robin, thank you!"

She continued, "I just wanted something simple, like these sandals. They only cost ten dollars, but I love them so much! I wear them all the time!" Hearing her words, the lighting operator zoomed in on her green slip-on sandals.

The audience was taken aback, laughing and reacting with amazement. It was the first time they had seen someone make such inexpensive sandals look so charming. Soon, the crowd erupted in applause and blessings.

Robin's mouth twitched.

He was surprised that his simple act had such a profound effect on Vera. She had a real talent for evoking emotions!

To celebrate her, the Nevilles sent Vera a generous birthday gift. On stage, she truly felt like she was celebrating the happiest birthday since her mother had died.

After all the festivities wrapped up, Vera rushed over to the VI Zone and kissed Robin's face, causing another wave of gasps from the audience before she quickly returned to her seat. Alice snorted coldly. "Vera, don't you think what you did was a bit inappropriate?"

Vera was taken aback and asked, "Inappropriate? What did I do?"

Alice glared at Vera's necklace, filled with resentment. "You know Robin has always liked me. Why are you seducing him behind my back?

"You're supposed to be my best friend! Don't you feel guilty?"

Vera was left speechless.

"Alice, I have no idea what you're talking about!

"You've long rejected your engagement with Robin. You two have no ties anymore. How I interact with him shouldn't concern you."

She added, "And you're about to marry Zachary. Why should it matter to you who Robin dates?"

"Hmph! Why shouldn't I care?" Alice snapped back. "Everyone knows Robin has been trying hard to win me back!"

Vera chuckled. "Alice, you're just imagining things. Robin has never had feelings for you! You've always looked down on him, considering him beneath you. Why would he matter to you?" Alice replied coldly, "That doesn't change anything! Without my permission, he shouldn't be dating anyone else!"
