Chapter 905 He's Actually One of the Dark Night Alliance!

Mateo quickly snapped out of his shock, his mind racing. He rushed toward Robin without hesitation.

As he passed his son, Asher, still sitting in stunned silence on the ground, Mateo grabbed him roughly by the arm, yanking him to his feet and dragging him toward Robin.

"Mr. Ramsey, my ungrateful son had no idea of your esteemed position, and he disrespected you. It's entirely my fault for not raising him properly. Please, I beg you, forgive him. I will ensure that I teach him properly from now on," Mateo pleaded, his voice full of urgency. Noticing that Robin remained unfazed, casually toying with the short gun in his hand, Mateo continued, "I speak from the heart, Mr. Ramsey. I've been so caught up with matters on Qacalisle Island, neglecting his upbringing, and that's why this rebellious boy became so arrogant. But deep down, Asher isn't a bad person; he's just foolish and immature.

"Of course, he wronged you, Mr. Ramsey, and he deserves punishment. But please, tell me how you want him punished. I'll make sure to carry it out! I promise, in the future, he will never-"

Before he could continue, Robin raised his hand, silencing him with a cold look. "He won't have a future. As for how I want him punished? Just kill him."

Mateo froze, his mind reeling. Is he really going to kill my son?

Swallowing hard, he begged, "Mr. Ramsey, please show mercy and spare his life. Tell me what I need to do to save him. Just tell me how the Cattells can make it up to you. I will do whatever it takes!"

Robin casually shrugged. "Do you really think someone like me would need anything from you?" He then turned toward Felix and Luella, nodding toward Darson. "If he won't do it, you do it."noveldrama

Darson's eyes widened, but he quickly feigned confusion. "M-Mr. Ramsey, are you talking to me?"

"Who else?" Robin tossed the gun toward Darson.

The man grabbed it, panic setting in. He looked to Felix and Luella, and then back at Robin. "Mr. Ramsey, I-I don't kill people."

"Don't kill people? Then you can die with him!" Robin snapped, pointing to the vice captain of the Aldridge guards, Kolton. "You do it."

Darson quickly stepped back, his voice shaking. "Mr. Ramsey, I'll follow your orders!"

He turned to Mateo, shaking in fear. "Mateo, I'm sorry, but I must do this. Mr. Ramsey's orders must be followed."

Before Mateo could respond, Darson fired at Asher.

The bullet struck directly between the brows, killing him instantly with a single shot.

Although Darson claimed he wasn't capable of killing and even feigned an appearance of extreme fear, every movement in the act of pulling the trigger was too precise to escape Robin's keen observation. The shot was executed so swiftly that no one had time to react before Asher had already met his end.

Mateo stood frozen, his grief giving way to rage. "You b*stard! How could you kill Asher? I swear I'll get revenge. I'll make you all pay!

"Mateo, calm down. I'm just following orders... " Darson protested, stepping back with the gun still clutched in his hands.

Robin's voice was like ice. "Kill him too."

Darson flinched. "Mr. Ramsey..."

"Do you have a problem with that?" Robin demanded, flicking his fingers impatiently.

"N-no, I don't," Darson stammered. He raised the gun, shaking violently, and aimed at Mateo. "I'll do as you say!"

In a desperate attempt, Mateo threw a punch at Darson's stomach, knocking the wind out of him. Seizing the opportunity, Mateo dashed to a car and sped off. Darson immediately fired a few shots, but they all missed.

Luella quickly ordered the Aldridge guards to shoot.

Robin raised a hand to stop them. "Forget it. He's already gone. Chasing him now is pointless."

"I'll send someone after him," Luella insisted, stepping forward.

"No need. He'll come back on his own," Robin said with a soft chuckle.

Felix and Luella exchanged uncertain glances, still unsure of Robin's meaning. Before they could voice their confusion, the words remained unspoken.

Darson wiped his forehead nervously, bowing in apology. "Mr. Ramsey, I'm so sorry. I've never killed anyone before, and I was just so nervous..."

Robin chuckled knowingly. "It's fine. Let's just hope next time you aren't as nervous."

He then turned to Felix. "Old man, it's been a while."

Felix finally relaxed, his tense nerves easing. "Mr. Ramsey, you really scared me just now. I thought you might take out your anger on me. I wouldn't have made it out alive

then."

"You really think I'm that petty?" Robin said with a pat on Felix's shoulder. "Let's go and talk."

"You came all the way to Qacalisle Island to visit me. I'm sure you've got something on your mind."

Luella looped her arm through Robin's, leading the way. "Grandpa, Mr. Ramsey is not that petty. Let's get in the car."

The three of them boarded Aldridge's private vehicle, which took them straight to a secluded villa on the island's western shore.

This villa had been arranged secretly by Luella, with everything kept hidden from the Aldridge staff to ensure privacy.

Felix led Robin into a private meeting room in the villa.

Once inside, Luella had the security team inspect every inch of the room before she closed the door. She then prepared drinks and poured red wine for Robin.

"Mr. Ramsey, it's been years, but you're still as sharp as ever," Felix said with a shrug as he handed Robin a glass.

"I don't understand, though," he continued. "Why did you let Mateo go, and why did you say he would return on his own?

"Also, why did you kill Julius, the

captain of my guards, who's been with me for almost eight years?

Felix asked. "From what I know, you don't kill without reason."

Robin casually spread his hand. "Old man, take a look at this."

He produced a small black coin-like object.

"This was on Julius," Robin said, showing it to Felix.

Felix recognized it immediately. It was the same object the security team had reported to him about when Julius first joined the team, though nothing seemed unusual at the time.

Robin carefully rubbed the coin, and it opened, releasing a cloud of foul-smelling black smoke.

Felix and Luella staggered back, their vision blurring as they lost consciousness.

After Robin sprayed some medicinal powder in front of their nose, it took moment before they slowly regained their senses.

"Wh-what was that?" Luella murmured, confused.

"That man was a member of the Dark Night Alliance. If I'm right, he's a pawn planted by your old rival, Ernst. And he's just one of many," Robin explained coldly. Felix broke out in a cold sweat. "He's actually one of the Dark Night Alliance!"
