“If you’re willing to join me, once I take over the Eastvale Ecological Investment Project, I’ll hand it over to the Dunns. It’ll be a much more stable path than sticking with that unreliable man, Robin.”
Shirley let out a cold laugh and held onto Robin’s arm even tighter. “Even if you had 200 billion, it wouldn’t be enough to make a beast like you into a man!
“The Dunns may have nothing, but I would never follow someone as vile as you!”
Robin laughed, too. “Gentlemen, I’m guessing this money must be some kind of clerical error, right?”
The five presidents looked at Robin with blank expressions. “We’ve each been in finance and banking for. over 20 years. Are you saying you’re more qualified than us?
“We personally verified this massive transfer ourselves–how could we have made a mistake? Hmph!” Liam smirked dismissively. “Robin, have you even seen a sum like 200 billion? These five bank presidents are seasoned financial experts–do you really think they’d mess up something this huge?iow ridiculous! “Mr. Wright, for the overall development of Harmonfield, and for the benefit of its people, I formally request that the Eastvale Ecological Investment Project be handed over to our Universal Group immediately!”

Lazlo’s face darkened. “Technically, yes. However, all the paperwork and details are completed, and the sender has confirmed the transfer. We just have to wait until after 3 p.m. today to access the funds.”
Robin replied calmly. “You could call right now to double–check. Let’s see if this money is actually ready to be used, or if it’s just a number on a screen.
Liam sneered. “Robin, are you still not done? Do you dare make a bet with me?”
Robin shrugged. “Why not?”
Liam pointed at him. “If the five bank presidents confirm the money is real, you have to hand over the Dunn Group’s development rights for the Eastvale Ecological Investment Project and get on your knees to apologize to me!”
“Fine!” Robin chuckled. “And if it’s not real?”
“If it’s not, I’ll get on my knees and bark like a dog!” Liam laughed boisterously, then tumed to the presidents, full of swagger.

Could it be that the person who wiped out Phoenix Vanguard Headquarters and the Ugosea branch leaders… was him alone?
Five days ago, Jack had received a message from the Dragon Palace’s black–clad guards.
It said that Robin had appeared on Hydra Island alongside the martial arts families, the Nevilles and the Rogarios.
As for what Robin actually did inside the Dragon Hall at Phoenix Vanguard Headquarters, they had received no information at all.
If the Hamiltons 200 billion was indeed controlled by Drogo from Phoenix Vanguard, then everything Robin said was true.

Carson quickly ordered someone to switch the channe

The former deputy boss, Drogo, had put the vice Dragon Leader, Cassian, and his wife under house arrest in a bid to seize the Dragon Leader’s position.
The Nevilles and the Rogarios had gone to Hydra Island together to support Cassian in restoring order to Phoenix Vanguard.
All the Ugosea branch leaders who had sided with Drogo were killed.
Cassian was once again in charge of Phoenix Vanguard

It was Universal Group’s finance department, frantically alerting him to an emergency: the Hamiltons were facing a flood of contract cancellations and debt collections.
Every bank that had previously worked with the Hamiltons was now ending their loan terms early.
All 137 projects that the Hamiltons had invested in across Brookhaven were terminating their contracts.
Each and every investment partner had just informed Universal Group’s finance department that they were retracting their previous agreements.
In other words, all of the Hamiltons‘ projects were now unfunded, and the money they’d initially invested was locked up with no hope of recovery.
The Hamiltons were finished.
Homer burst into laughter. “Liam, you scheming bastard, you totally deserve this downfall! I couldn’t be happier! Hahaha…
Liam lunged at Homer, grabbing his hair and slapping him hard across the face. “You old fool! I’ll shut that filthy mouth of yours!”

Seeing the chaos, Trinity picked up a bottle from the table and smashed it over Liam’s head. “Liam, you liar! Let go of my dad!”

The powerful figures of Brookhavencs elite finally snapped out of their shock.

Drake and Shirley were stunned.
The 200 billion had actually been deposited into the account of the Dunns Eastvale Development Group?
They instinctively turned to look at Robin.
“Is… is this real?” Shirley asked nervously.
Robin nodded. “Ms. Jenning, call the finance department to confirm.”
But before Amber could dial, her phone started ringing
She put it on speaker.
On the other end, the finance director was practically shouting with excitement, “Ms. Jenning, you… you need to report to Ms. Dunn immediately! A massive sum of 200 billion has just been transferred into the Eastvale Development Group’s account!
“Please confirm with Ms. Dunn–does she know anything about this?
“And, the funds are available for immediate withdrawall”
The entire banquet hall erupted in shock.
Two hundred billion had been transferred into the Dunns Eastvale Development Group’s account!
Henry, Carson, and the others were equally astonished,
So it was Phoenix Vanguard who had funneled the funds into the Dunns!
In that moment, Drake was utterly bewildered.
This 200 billion–what had the Dunns done to deserve Phoenix Vanguard’s support?
And with no strings attached?
Just when he thought the betrayal of 50 investment partners would ruin the Dunns, they’d unexpectedly received this massive infusion of capital.
With these funds, the Dunns‘ crisis was resolved in an instant!
Drake looked at Robin, his gaze filled with overwhelming gratitude.
In his weathered, tear–filled eyes, emotions brimmed to the surface.
The Dunns had been pulled from the brink of ruin time and time again, all thanks to Robin.
He was truly the Dunns greatest benefactor.
Drake was trembling with emotion as he walked up to Robin and bowed deeply. “Mr. Ramsey… Mr. Ramsey, thank you!”

Finally, he understood.
From the very beginning, he’d schemed against the Dunns, poisoning Timothy.
Later, when Robin interfered with his plans and got involved in the Eastvale Business District, Liam had made it his mission to destroy him.
But now, it was painfully clear–he was nothing in Robin’s presence.
Not even a blip.
He had thought he could use the Poison King Sect and Phoenix Vanguard to elevate the Hamiltons, hoping to dominate Harmonfield and eventually all of Brookhaven.
But he had never imagined that Robin would be this powerful, or that he’d have the support of Cassian from Phoenix Vanguard.
This 200 billion fund had single–handedly dragged the Hamiltons down from their pedestal, plunging them into a bottomless pit.
Now, only Robin could save the Hamiltons.
Realizing this, Liam crawled over to Robin.

Calvin took a deep breath. “Mr. Miller. Sr., I’m just as eager to meet Master Ramsey. But I need to see my mentor, Mr. Wilder, first–only he would know where Master Ramsey is. My mentor’s flight was delayed. so he’ll be arriving at the resort hotel a bit late.”

“Mr. Miller Sr., let’s head to the hotel entrance to greet him. There’s a chance Master Ramsey may have arrived with him.”
“Perfect, let’s go!” Hank replied eagerly, practically dragging Calvin along as they headed outside.
Meanwhile, Robin and his group had already exited the resort hotel, climbed into the Dunns‘ cars, and were now slowly making their way out of the resort.
At that exact moment, Wilder arrived at the hotel entrance.
He froze in place, squinting into the distance.
Was that Master Ramsey he spotted in one of the luxury cars driving away?
Why was he leaving?
Could he be mistaken?
Wilder furrowed his brows, lost in thought
Just then, Martin and his group exited through the private elevator hallway.
Seeing Martin, Wilder walked up with a smile. “Old Mr. Wright, has the banquet sorry for being late–my flight was delayed.”
ady? I’m so
Martin chuckled, “Mr. Lennon, it’s a real shame you missed it! Today’s celebration was quite the show, and I couldn’t be happier, haha…”
Wilder observed Martin’s joyful expression. ‘Really? Well, as long as Old Mr. Wright enjoyed yourself! You’re looking better than ever–your energy and vitality are remarkable!
“My mentor truly is a miracle worker! At this rate, Old Mr. Wright could easily live another 20 years in perfect health!
“By the way, Old Mr. Wright–did my mentor arrive?”
Martin nodded. “He was here just a moment ago. Didn’t you see him on your way in?”
“No, I didn’t,” Wilder said, shaking his head, disappointment clear in his eyes.
“Mr. Ramsey left in one of the Dunns‘ cars. Look at that line of cars over there,” Martin said, pointing ahead.
“If you’d arrived just a bit sooner, you would have met him.”
Wilder looked toward the resort entrance, practically beating his chest in frustration. “Ah, what a shame! I’ve been looking forward to meeting Master Ramsey for so long, and now, because of a delayed flight, I missed my chance!”
After exchanging a few words with Wilder, Martin and his group left the hotel and headed back to their own cars to leave the resort.

Wilder shook his head. The flight delay made me miss a golden opportunity. It’s infuriating! If I’d arrived just ten minutes earlier, I could’ve at least spoken a few words with him.”
Hank looked crushed. “He’s gone? Master Ramsey was actually here at the hotel?”
Wilder nodded, pointing toward the Dunns‘ convoy: “Yes, did you see those cars just now? Master Ramsey was in that black Mercedes,”
Calvin watched the Dunns‘ black Mercedes as it disappeared into the distance, feeling deeply disappointed. “What a pity… Master Ramsey truly keeps a low profile.”

Hank stepped forward and bowed respectfully. “Mr. Lennon, please, you have to help me find Master Ramsey. My life depends on it.”
Then Hank suddenly remembered something and pulled out an invitation. “Mr. Lennon, my granddaughter is having her engagement ceremony tomorrow, and we’d be honored if you would attend.”
Wilder was about to decline, but Hank added excitedly The engagement ceremoi. One of Dawnspire Heights Estates!”
Wilder froze in surprise. “Where did you say?”
“Mr. Lennon, at Villa One of Dawnspire Heights Estates!” Hank repeated, smiling.

“The owner of Harmonfield’s most prestigious villa is actually my granddaughter’s close friend, and he’s letting her use the space for the event.”
Wilder was stunned.
Being friends with the owner of such a place was no small feat.
“Alright, Mr. Miller Sr., I’ll be there on time tomorrow!
