"Robin, I knew you couldn't handle seeing me!" Alice announced, her glare fixed on the unbothered Robin. Her eyes brimmed with arrogance.

"Is it because you've learned about my engagement to Zachary this Sunday? Are you avoiding me out of discomfort?"

Alison began to unravel the layers of tension.

This woman, she realized, shared a complicated past with Robin.

Alison studied Alice with keen interest.

With striking features and a figure that turned heads, she was a true beauty.

Alison's gaze shifted to the luxury car parked nearby, where Zachary stood beside Alice.

Together, they radiated wealth and status.

Robin, uninterested in confrontation, tried to walk past them.

Yet Alice stepped into his path. "Why are you dodging me, Robin? Are you upset about my engagement? Is that why you can't meet my gaze?"

Robin responded with a cool smile, "Alice, our chapter ended long ago. What's the point of this charade? "Your engagement doesn't concern me. Whether you marry or not, it changes nothing for me.

"Besides, it's merely an engagement. Is it truly necessary to make such a scene? You'd think you were about to ascend to royalty."

Rosalie and Alison stifled laughter, nearly bursting out loud.

Alice shook her head, feigning disappointment. She pointed at Rosalie. "Is this really what you have to show for yourself, Robin?

"Taking this lowly girl on trips, fooling her out of her money must be quite simple, right?"

Rosalie quickly stepped in. "Ms. Miller, you've misunderstood. It's not what you think. Robin saved me..."

But Robin cut her off, "There's no need to explain yourself to her."

Alice chuckled, her smile dripping with disdain. "You're correct. You two make a great pair. Congratulations!" Rosalie felt her cheeks burn, longing to explain.

But when she glimpsed Robin's unflinching calm, her words faded away.

She looked up at his tall form, admiration swelling within her.

Then her gaze fell back on Alice's self-satisfied grin, and a quiet amusement crept over her.

Alice, perhaps one day you will understand the truth, and when that day comes, regret will consume you.

When Robin remained silent, Alice couldn't suppress her smirk. "Well, Robin, since fate has brought us together, I'll let you in on some news. This Sunday, Mr. Gill and I are officially getting engaged!" She laughed.

"Mr. Gill has promoted the event across television and social media. The elite of Harmonfield, along with a few reporters, will be at our engagement ceremony.noveldrama

"And I assure you, our ceremony will be spectacular. It's bound to make waves throughout Harmonfield!"

Robin chuckled softly. "That's wonderful. Am I free to leave now?"

"Hold on a second!" Alice, still filled with excitement, stepped in front of him.

"I should tell you that our engagement isn't taking place in some ordinary five-star hotel in Harmonfield. Isn't that something?"

"Hmm, I suppose." Robin smiled knowingly. "Planning something rather unconventional?"

"Of course! A wedding is a major milestone, and it deserves to be grand and memorable!" Alice grinned. "Can you guess where it will be held?"

Robin feigned deep thought. "Let me think. Are you planning a ceremony beneath a bridge?"

"Pfft!" Alison and Rosalie struggled to stifle their laughter.

"What... what are you saying?" Alice shot back, her annoyance flaring.

Robin shrugged. "Didn't you say you weren't using a hotel?

"If it's not under a bridge, then where on earth could it be?"

Alice scoffed, a haughty laugh escaping her lips. "People like you, with such narrow minds, can only conceive of such mundane ideas.

"Allow me to enlighten you. I'm hosting the ceremony at a villa estate!

"And not just any villa; it's Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates, the most extravagant location in Harmonfield."

Robin's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "At my place?"

"Your place?" Alice burst into laughter.

"You live at Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates? You must be joking!"

Robin shook his head. "Impossible. That's just simply impossible."

Alice sneered. "With your limited view, it's no surprise you think it's impossible! Here, take a look at this."

She thrust an invitation toward Robin.

Robin merely shrugged. "You can keep that. I don't have time for your theatrics."

You can go to hell. How could my villa possibly host your engagement ceremony?

Zachary let out a light laugh. "Robin, Alice is being completely honest. We're here to pick up my aunt and her family for our engagement at the villa.

"Robin, the ceremony is indeed at Villa One. Alice wouldn't lie to you."

Robin met their gaze with a steady expression. "Well, that villa is my home. I have no reason to lie to you, either."

Just then, Ashley approached, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Zachary, Ms. Miller, who are you here to see?" Zachary shook Ashley's hand. "We're here to pick up my aunt.

"This Sunday marks the day of my engagement to Alice. If you're not flying, you should come and celebrate with us."

Ashley turned to Alison, her enthusiasm infectious. "That sounds wonderful! Zachary, where exactly is the engagement taking place?"

Zachary glanced at Robin before responding with pride, "We're holding the ceremony at Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates." 3/3
