Hank saw the mocking glances and whispers directed at Robin from the second-rate socialites gathered around. He sneered condescendingly. "Robin, you see that? This is reality," he said, smugly.
"This world is divided into circles, and people like you will find it hard to break into the circle of the wealthy.
"Today, there are media reporters everywhere," he continued.
"And soon, some of the most prestigious families in Harmonfield will be here for Alice's engagement
ceremony.
"If you cause trouble here, the estate security won't let you get away with it," Hank warned, trying to sound magnanimous.
"For the sake of your late grandfather, I'm willing to let this slide. Just go home, Robin."
The commotion at the entrance caught the attention of Alice, Zachary, and others inside the villa
"Grandpa, what's wrong?"
Alice, radiant in a stunning white wedding gown, emerged from the villa.
Her appearance instantly captivated the crowd gathered to celebrate the engagement at Villa One. "Wow! Ms. Miller is absolutely beautifull"
"She's every bit as radiant as Shirley Dunn, the goddess of Harmonfield!"
Ms. Miller's future is looking bright! I mean, she's holding her engagement ceremony at Villa
h someone that powerful backing her, she's bound to surpass the Dunn family's heiress."
Hearing the murmurs, Alice looked proudly at Robin in the crowd, her eyes lighting up.
She covered her mouth with a coy smile and giggled.
"Robin, didn't you say you wouldn't come to my engagement ceremony?" she teased.
"So, what do you think? My engagement is being celebrated in Harmonfield's most luxurious villa. Impressive, isn't it?"
She continued, "Let me tell you, the owner of Villa One is one of my best friends.
He said I can use Villa One for as long as I want, even live here permanently, if I like.
"Are you finally seeing the reality here?" Alice taunted.
"We're not on the same level, Robin

I am destined to become someone like Daphne-a queen, she declared smugly.
"To put it plainly, Villa One might as well be mine already!"
The crowd let out a collective gasp of admiration.
"She's right!"
"With access to Villa One, she really could become a queen like Dapline!"
"That poor guy, though... why does he keep clinging to something that's clearly out of reach?
"No amount of persistence can overcome the issue of social standing"
"It takes connections, family background, and wealth to get anywhere near her level"

Watching Alice strut around like she owned the place, Robin shook his head. "I don't recall ever having a friend as trashy as you. Step aside."
Alice blocked his path, laughing mockingly. "Robin, seeing you look so helpless is honestly delightful!"
My engagement to Zachary is happening today. There's nothing you can do about it," she taunted.noveldrama
"I'm warning you, don't even think about causing trouble during my ceremony."
"D"mn it! You could marry a pig for all I carel Why would I be bothered?" Robin said as he tried to step. around her, only for Alice to block him again.
"Robin, I gave you an invitation, and you refused it," she sneered.
"Now, without an invitation, I'm afraid there's no space for you here. Not just anyone can attend.
"How about this? If you really want to watch the ceremony, I'll have someone bring you a small stool and table. We'll give you some appetizers and a little wine, and you can sit outside the door.
"If you need more food, just call out, and we'll bring it to you," she laughed.
"How's that? Generous enough, right?"
She clutched her stomach, laughing as if she'd just said the funniest thing in the world.
The guests burst into laughter as well.
Robin watched Alice's smug face, and a faint smile crossed his own.
Was this that the world's clowns looked like?
Since the Millers had broken off their engagement, Robin had wanted nothing to do with them.
But Alice kept taunting him, over and over.
Did she really need me to completely crush the Millers before she understood the consequences of betrayal and disrespect?

If it weren't for Old Fred telling him that his grandfather had arranged the marriage, the Millers would have been wiped out a long time ago.
Yet Alice continued to humiliate him.
Seeing Robin standing there in silence, deep in thought, Hank sighed heavily
"Robin, I understand that seeing a scene like this must be difficult for you," he said in a tone that pretended sympathy.
"As a man, I get how painful this must be.
"But clinging to some old engagement document and thinking it makes Alice your fiancee? That's a bit obsessive, don't you think?
"It was just a piece of paper, after all. Nothing that really matters.
"You need to wake up," he continued. "Our family never truly recognized that engagement anyway.
"Well, your grandfather did give us one million dollars to help the Millers get through hard times. But that doesn't mean we have to sacrifice my granddaughter's happiness as a repayment That one million dollars meant a lot to us back then, no doubt, Hank admitted.
"But if your grandfather only helped us out because he wanted to bind us to him, that would be pretty low.
The Millers are a family that values lofty ideals. We don't care for such petty, shallow arrangements.
That's why I can't let Alice fulfill that old engagement. I wouldn't want it to cheapen the one million dollars we received.
