It turned out to be because of another woman that he abandoned her. She finally understood.
“Well, now that you understand,” Robin Bailey nodded in his heart. Big brother, you finally understand. If you didn’t, I wouldn’t know what to do.
“Yvette, what’s all the fuss about? I have to take Patrick Bailey to meet an important figure,” Stuart Holt chuckled beside them.
On the surface, he was the chairman of Tianhua Tower, but in reality, he was more like a social butterfly. Stuart Holt had a wide network of contacts, no joking matter. In the Borderlands, he had connections with almost everyone.
That was also the reason why Ferdinand Braton didn’t dare to touch him initially.
But now, he was willing to take risks.
“Hmph,” Yvette Tang stood by, arms crossed, looking coldly at Robin Bailey.
“Let’s go, Brother Qin,” Stuart Holt, with a friendly expression, led Robin Bailey to the main venue. There, they met a man in his early twenties. His demeanor seemed inferior to Stuart Holt’s, but he had the presence of a hidden dragon, ready to soar and unstoppable.
He exuded an aura of someone in a higher position. Although his eyes appeared calm, they carried a certain dignity. Most people didn’t even have the courage to meet his gaze.
“It seems that Ray Harding has raised this illegitimate child quite well. He has the presence, like a hidden dragon ready to soar. I’ve already broken through the heavens for you. Let’s see where you soar,” Robin Bailey silently thought.
The Harding family, this person was like a god.
“This is Caldwell Harding, a significant figure. It’s hard to estimate his true status,” Stuart Holt said with a hint of mystery.
Caldwell Harding.
Caldwell Harding.
Patrick Bailey.
Robin Bailey.
These two were the main characters.
However, the people around didn’t think much of this person. After all, if Stuart Holt, who wasn’t a significant figure himself, said someone was important, how credible could it be? At most, he was just a wealthy young man.
Everyone here was from wealthy families.
No one took this person seriously.
But at that moment, a man and a woman arrived. The woman held the man’s hand as they walked step by step towards Robin Bailey. She looked at him with some arrogance and said, “Hey, what are you going to do today? By the way, this person beside me is Truman Tang, the young master of the Tang family. With him here, you won’t be able to protect your Yvette Tang like you did yesterday.”
This woman was Marie.
And this man was indeed Truman Tang, the young master of the Tang family. Marie had found him overnight, as she already knew him. Plus, Truman Tang was also interested in her beauty, so they spent the night together. Today, she brought Truman Tang along.
With Truman Tang present, he was a young master, someone that Yvette Tang couldn’t compare to in the Tang family.
“Hmph.”
On the side, Yvette Tang stood with her arms crossed, watching everything unfold. She had known about it since this morning, but she had originally planned to help Patrick Bailey, after all, he was her cousin, and she wanted to save face for herself.
However, she discovered that Robin Bailey was holding hands with Mimi Beckett.
She was furious.
Helping out?
Impossible!
But she didn’t leave, just stood there watching the scene.
However, the next scene surprised everyone in the hall. Marie wanted to mock something, but with a loud slap, she was fiercely slapped across the face.
Accurate and undeniable.
A bright red slap.
The crucial point was that it wasn’t Robin Bailey who slapped her, but Caldwell Harding sitting opposite him.
“Who allowed you to interrupt?” Caldwell Harding’s eyes turned cold as he glanced at Marie.
And with this, Truman Tang was provoked. For Truman Tang, hitting someone was nothing, but in this situation, hitting his own woman meant losing face, which was the worst.
“Kid, you’ve also angered me,” Truman Tang said as he threw a punch.
Without hesitation.
He was the young master of the Tang family, and with the Braton family destroyed, the Tang family was thriving. No one dared to provoke him.
However…
Boom.
Behind Caldwell Harding, an old man suddenly appeared, and a burst of power erupted, smashing Truman Tang away. He crashed into the wall and vomited blood.
“Ah!”
Truman Tang let out a miserable scream. After calming down for a moment, he spat out blood and said, “You, you, dare to offend me? Do you know who I am? I am Truman Tang, the young master of the Tang family. Do you want to die?”
He was furious.
Then, he began to make a phone call, but before he could connect, a man walked over.
“Dad, it’s this guy. He hit me. Help me take revenge,” Truman Tang looked at the man in front of him and smiled. His father, Emmett Tang, the head of the Tang family, had arrived. As the head of the Tang family, he was one of the most powerful figures in the Borderlands.
How could those few people compare?
They were doomed.
However, what was unexpected was that with a loud bang, Emmett Tang slapped Truman Tang across the face, his face full of anger. He knocked out his teeth and then Emmett Tang’s furious voice resounded, “Who do you think you are? How dare you provoke someone!”
After saying that, Emmett Tang walked up to Caldwell Harding and kneeled down, “Emmett Tang, the head of the Tang family, apologizes for not disciplining properly. Please forgive me, Young Master.”
This kneeling shocked the entire hall. This was Emmett Tang, one of the most powerful figures after the Braton family was destroyed. And now, he was kneeling before that young man.
This…
Marie’s mouth hung open, not knowing how to react. The support she brought with her had suddenly turned cold?
Mimi Beckett and Yvette Tang were also stunned. Who was this person, and what was his background?
The key point was that the young man didn’t let Emmett Tang get up. Instead, he turned his gaze to Robin Bailey and said with great interest, “I’ve heard about you. To be honest, I’m very interested in you. Are you interested in joining me and reaching the pinnacle together?”
He was trying to make Robin Bailey submit.
However, his words were extremely enticing.
But with Emmett Tang kneeling beside him, it also carried a great deal of intimidation.
“I was born free and don’t want to submit to anyone,” Robin Bailey stated directly.
Caldwell Harding burst into laughter. “Submit? Haha, you’re right. Submit, but submit to me, Caldwell Harding. I can give you something you won’t get in your entire life. I’ll give you another chance. Tell me, do you submit or not?”
In an instant, the old man behind Caldwell Harding took a step forward.
An unprecedented pressure instantly enveloped Robin Bailey, pressing heavily on him like Mount Tai, making it hard to breathe. Even the weaker individuals around struggled to stay on their feet.
They ended up sitting on the ground, their faces covered in cold sweat.
As for Robin Bailey, his body slightly bent, and finally, he placed his hands on the table, struggling to resist.
Of course, others were genuinely affected, but he was just pretending.
