Robin quickly made his way to Marrisa, gently pressing on several pressure points along her leg.
“Marrisa, were you bitten by a dog?”
Marrisa sighed as she glanced at the breakfast spilled on the ground. “Robin, let’s go. I’ll grab you another breakfast.”
Robin looked up at the woman across from them. “Did your dog bite Marrisa?”
The woman, holding the dog leash, absentmindedly tugged at her split eyelids while eyeing Robin, who was wearing oversized shorts.
“How could you say my dog bit her?
“My dog was practicing dance moves in the plaza. It just moved to her leg!
“She’s the one who was walking in the wrong place!”
What the hell?!
Moved?
Robin was left completely bewildered.
The crowd watching was equally stunned, their minds filled with cursing words.
Such shameless logic. So mind–blowing!
Give her a lever, and she could probably win a Nobel Prize!
Her dog clearly bit someone, yet she somehow turned it into her two dogs just moving to Marrisa’s leg?
What the hell?!
How did she even come up with these words?!
Robin had intended to let the woman apologize and be done with it.
But instead, she opened her mouth and immediately started spouting nonsense.
“I’m not going to argue with someone like you, a man with no manners!” The woman scoffed when she saw Robin standing there, stunned.
“Just tell me, how much do you want? I know people like you. You’re just trying to cause trouble in front of our wealthy neighborhood to extort money!”
The woman raised an eyebrow, looking Robin and Marrisa up and down with utter disdain.
Her heavily powdered face practically showed her attitude. “I’ve got plenty of money, I’ll throw some at you poor fools and be done with it!”

Marrisa fugged on Robin’s arm. “Let’s just leave, Robin It’s not worth it
“Oh, cut the act! Just name the price, will you? 2,000?”

The woman scoffed. Trying to act noble while you’re out here scamming people! What a joke!
“Coming out so early to pull a scam–gotta admit, you’re pretty dedicated!
“If all this effort isn’t for money, then what? Morning exercise? Come on, just say it, how much?
“Two thousand? Not enough? Fine, 5,000! Will that do
She sneered at Robin. “Get your phone out and pull up your payment app. The generous and send it to you!
“You’re young, you look halfway decent, yet here you are, out scamming people. Don’t you shameful?”

With that, she crouched down, and both of her dogs immediately leaned forward to lick her face.
“Oh, sweeties, did you eat poop again today? I told you, no eating poop! If you do, you’ll lose your little
wee–wees.
She pulled a tissue from her bag, wiped the poop from her dogs‘ mouths, and then used the same tissue on her own lips.
Ugh!
Robin almost threw up.
She might as well have eaten it herself!
No wonder her words stank.
The woman glanced at Robin, noticing he still hadn’t pulled up his payment app. With an arrogant tone. she sneered, “Five thousand. I’m practically gifting it to you. Take it or leave it!”
Robin replied indifferently, “Keep it. But I am going to shut that foul mouth of yours!”
Smack! With a single slap, the woman was knocked to the ground.
The crowd immediately took a step back in shock.
“You… you hit me?” The woman finally snapped out of her shock. “How dare you hit a woman?!”
Robin wiped his palin calmly. “You’re no woman, you’re a shameless pest.
“Marrisa, let’s go.”
You think you can just walk away after hitting me? Nota chance!”
Robin stopped in his tracks. “Oh? And what do you plan to do about it?

Robin chuckled. “Let your husband.come”
The woman quickly grabbed her phone. “Hubby, I’ve been attacked at the gate of the villa! Hurry up and get here! Wuwuwu…
At that moment, a woman around 40 years old pushed her way through the crowd.
She spotted Robin and quickly approached. “Mr. Ramsey, you’re home today?”
Robin nodded. “Ms. River, good to see you”
This woman was Casey River, the wife of Brad Yale, the Vice President of the Harmonfield Chamber of Commerce.
She was also the CEO of Harmonfield’s Windstorm Group.
Robin had met her once before at Dunn’s villa
The Rivers were one of the top–tier families in Harmonfield, ranking among the elite.
Her husband, Brad, came from a humble background.
They had been college classmates, and later, he married into the Rivers
With Casey’s support, Brad became the Vice President of the Harmonfield Chamber of Commerce.
Casey turned her attention to Marrisa. “Mr. Ramsey, may I ask who this is?”
“Ms. River, this is Marrisa Holt,” Robin introduced.
“Hi, Marrisa. What happened to your leg?” Casey glanced over at the woman and her two dogs, quickly piecing things together.
She understood what had happened.
The woman’s dog had bitten Marrisa.
“Excuse me, miss, but your dog bit her-

Casey thought to herself, Even if your husband shows up, he’ll have to back down!
They say a wise wife keeps her husband out of trouble.
Any man who ends up with a woman like her will eventually end up ruining himself.
“If your husband shows up, things are only going to get worse. I’ll give you one last piece of slice, apologize to Marrisa and Mr. Ramsey now!”
The woman shrieked, “Haha, I heard my husband’s coming and now you’re scared, right If you’re scared. come over here and apologize to me and my dogs!”
Casey was instantly enraged. “How dare you insult Mr. Ramsey? Who is your husband? Do you want to die?!”
The woman sneered, “Who’s my husband? Ha, you’ll be shocked when I tell you! My husband is Brad Yale the vice president of the Harmonfield Chamber of Commerce!
Casey froze for a moment. “Your husband is Brad Yale?
“That’s right! Did that surprise you? The woman tossed her messy hair and taunted.
“You think you can scam me? Are you out of your mind?”
Casey stood there, stunned for a moment. “Say that again, who’s your husband?”
The woman shook her head dismissively. “My husband is Brad Yale! Vice President of the Harmonfield Chamber of Commerce!”
Robin rolled his eyes. Whoa! I actually ran into someone trying to scam with her husband’s title today!

She feared that if she lost control in a fit of anger, she would ruin the image of a refined, intellectual

She clenched her fists, trying to keep her anger in check, and gave Robin an awkward smile. “Mr. Ramey, there seems to be some misunderstanding… Hehe, perhaps… Her husband and mine share the same
name.
“I’ll just call and ask Brad.”
Robin nodded. “Go ahead.”
Watching Casey make the call, Robin could tell this wasn’t some misunderstanding at all. It was the truth
Robin looked up at the woman causing a scene and shook his head.
It seems that today, the vice president of the Harmonfield Chamber of Commerce will have to be replaced
Casey finally got through to Brad.
As soon as the call connected, the woman’s phone was abruptly disconnected.
This was enough proof. Casey and that woman had been calling the same person.
“Brad, where are you right now?” Casey asked, her voice carefully controlled.
On the other end, Brad immediately responded with a sweet tone, “Honey. I’m at the Chamber of

“Brad, are you really at the Chamber of Commerce? It sounds like you’re outside, in the square.”
Brad shifted his overweight body and got out of the car, four bodyguards trailing behind him.
He hurried toward the square, speaking on the phone as he went.

“Oh, Honey, some people from the Chamber of Commerce are here. They’re discussing plans for a shopping mall in Harmonfield.”
Casey watched as Brad jogged closer. “Is that so? You’re not lying to me, are you?”
“Honey, how could I lie to you? You must have misunderstood. I’ve got to go now. I’m tied up with work.”
At that moment, a murderous rage flashed in Casey’s eyes. “Fine, we’ll talk later!”
There was a brief hesitation on the other end. “Yes, oh by the way, you mentioned you were bringing over a relative of Mr. Ramsey’s today. Don’t worry, I’ve already handled the paperwork. She just needs to come in and sign it. I’ll hang up now. I’m swamped here.”
Casey took a deep breath. “Alright, we’ll talk in person.
After hanging up, she turned her gaze toward Brad, who was panting and running toward her.
She fought to keep her rage from erupting like a volcano.
Turning to Robin, she forced a dry smile. “Mr. Ramsey, sorry about that.”
Robin nodded. “No worries, take care of your family matters first.”
Just then, a commotion erupted from the crowd outside.
Brad awkwardly made his way over to the woman walking her dog, his short, fat frame hustling toward her.
As he got closer, he even paused to smooth down the two sparse strands of hair on his head.
With a dramatic flourish, he asked, “Stella, sweetheart, what happened?”
The woman sitting on the ground, Stella Burns, looked up at him with tear–filled eyes,
“Hubby, I’ve been mistreated.”
Brad rolled and crawled to Stella, hugged her in his arms, and kissed her on the mouth tenderly. “Baby, I’m here, don’t worry about anything! Wait… Why does your mouth smell like shit?”
Stella patted his fat head in exasperation. “You fool! Your dog ate shit, and when I kissed it, all of it ended up on my lips. What do you think?”
Brad turned to the two little dogs, playfully tapping them on the head. “Kids, don’t eat shit anymore! Look at what you did to your mom’s mouth! Little troublemakers!”
Casey watched the scene in disgust, almost gagging.
“Godd*mn it, Brad, you’re nothing but trash, only deserve to eat shit!”
Stella pointed at Casey, about to speak, but before she could, Casey had already stormed up to them and kicked Brad squarely in his fat butt.
“Ouch!” Brad fell face–first onto the ground.

Brad had no idea who kicked him, but he pointed at the four bodyguards and yelled, “Who the hell was that? Get her!”
The bodyguards, panic–stricken, quickly responded. “Mr. Yale, it… it was Madam!”
“Madam? Which Madam?” Brad fumed, his anger boiling over. “To hell with it, I don’t care who she is!”
Casey, unbothered, stepped forward and gave Brad and her hard kick to his butt. “What the hell, Brad? Do you want to die?”
Stella, seeing Casey kick Brad, exploded in fury. “Why are you hitting my husband?”
It was then that Brad realized his wife, Casey, was standing right in front of him.
The harsh sunlight hit his eyes, making them sting. “Honey, this must be an illusion, right?”
Casey’slapped him hard across the face. “To hell with your illusion‘! It’s me, idiot!”
Without a second thought, Casey threw another slap across his fat face, completely disregarding her image as she continued to strike him.
Stella grabbed Brad’s arm in a panic. “Hubby, this woman’s lost her mind!”
Brad, in a fit of rage, slapped Stella across the face. To hell with you! You’re the one who’s crazy! She’s my
wife!”
With a heavy thud, Brad fell to the ground before Casey. “Honey, please forgive me!
“It’s this woman who’s been pestering me–she tricked me, blackmailed me. I had no choice… I kept her in this villa because I was afraid you’d find out.”
“Spent millions on a villa for her just to keep me in the dark?!” Casey shouted. “If you’d told me she was pestering you, I would’ve turned her into a corpse by now!

“Brad, can you at least make your lies sound a little more convincing? She’s calling you ‘hubby, and you’re still trying to deceive me?
“Alright, that’s it. I’m divorcing you today!

Brad–crawled in front of Casey, desperate. “Honey, please, forgive me just this once!”
Stella was stunned. She grabbed Brad, pulling him back. “What are you begging her for? She’s just a woman trying to cause trouble. What can she do?”
Brad kicked Stella hard. “To hell with you! You’re calling the CEO of the Rivers‘ Windstorm Group a troublemaker?!”
At that moment, Brad’s eyes locked on Robin, standing in the sunlight. A cold chill ran through him, his,

He glanced at the wound on Marrisa’s leg
At that moment, he felt a murderous rage toward Stella
Grabbing a fistful of Stella’s hair, he dragged her in front of Robin. “Apologize!
“Mr. Ramsey, this b*tch offended Marrisa. I’ll make her a cripple right now!”
To prove his loyalty, he ran to the car, grabbed a metal pipe, and slammed it down onto Stella’s leg
Robin smiled indifferently. “Ms. River, I won’t get involved in your family matters. I’ll take Marrisa to get her wound treated.”

After applying his specially formulated bruise and injury powder, the bite marks from the dog visibly healed before their eyes.
Shirley, who was helping nearby, was astonished. “Robin, is your medicine really that amazing?”
Robin gave Shirley a light tap on the head. “Of course. You’ve never seen anything like it, have you? I’ll leave a few bottles in the car for you, just in case”
“I don’t want that! I want you with me every day! Shirley wrapped her arm around Robin’s, her gaze burning with intensity.
Robin froze for a moment.
Had this cool, stunning goddess from Harmonfield really become so… clingy?
“Huh? Okay!” Robin squeezed Shirley’s flushed cheek. “So, are you planning to settle down, retire, and start having kids?
“Ah?” Shirley gasped, her blush spreading quickly from her cheeks to her ears and down her neck.
Ring, ring. The phone suddenly rang again, interrupting the moment.
Shirley froze for a moment, then pointed at the phone on the table. “S–should I answer it?”
“Yeah, go ahead,” Robin replied, nodding seriously as he watched Shirley’s flustered reaction.
Marrisa, observing the scene, couldn’t help but smile warmly, her eyes filled with happiness.
She tugged at Robin’s arm and whispered, ‘Robin, you two should pick a good day to get married. Seeing how happy you both are really makes me feel joyful. Once I finish up everything back home, I’ll retire and help take care of the kids.”
Robin instinctively glanced at Shirley’s stunning figure and then grinned. I’m thinking of having a dozen or so. You think you can handle all of them on your own?”
Marrisa’s eyes lit up, and she couldn’t help but laugh as she eyed Shirley’s figure. “Hehehe… Robin, you little rascal!”
Shirley finished her call and glanced at Robin and Marrisa, both wearing amused expressions. “What are you two talking about?”
Robin looked genuinely puzzled. “Oh? Did we say something. Marrisa?”
Ahahaha… Marrisa finally couldn’t hold it in, her eyes still fixed on Shirley. “Robin said… Hahaha…”

Robin pretended nothing was out of the ordinary and shook his head, glancing at Shirley. “I have no idea”
Marrisa couldn’t hold back her laughter, almost falling over from how hard she was laughing at Robin and Shirley’s reaction.
Shirley, feeling self–conscious under Marrisa’s gaze, instinctively checked her outfit.
It was perfectly appropriate–accentuating her curves just right.
“No!” Shirley grabbed Robin’s car, pulling him closer. “You’re definitely hiding something from me! What did you say about me?”
Robin continued to act confused, looking at Shirley with a blank expression. “I don’t know. Maybe the little old lady was bitten by a dog, and it’s affecting her mind
“Hahaha…” The more Robin feigned ignorance, the more anxious Shirley became, and the more Marrisa struggled to contain her laughter. She pointed at Shirley and teased, “Robin said… he plans on having a
dozen or so kids….
“Ah?” Shirley’s delicate face turned as red as a ripe apple.
Flustered, she raised her small fists and began playfully hitting Robin’s shoulder.
Robin wrapped his arms around Shirley, pulling her close. “I meant every word, so you’d better brace yourself.”
“Ah!” Shirley buried her face into Robin’s chest, her small fists scratching at his chest like little cat claws, while her long, pale legs kicked restlessly.
Amber walked into the villa’s living room and froze when she saw the scene before her. “Marrisa, Ms. Dunn, what’s going on here?”
Marrisa grinned and replied. They were just talking about having kids,”
“Ah?” Amber’s face instantly turned red as she took in the situation. “Maybe I should come back later.”
Shirley quickly pulled away from Robin’s embrace, shooting him an annoyed glare. “Ms. Jenning, come on
over.”
“Oh!” Amber glanced at Shirley’s messy hair and the rosy glow on her face, then leaned in close, whispering in her ear. “Ms. Dunn, are you two planning to… do it now?”
Shirley blinked in confusion. “Huh? Do what?”
Amber pointed at Shirley’s figure with a playful yet serious expression. “How about I tell them to push the meeting to tomorrow? You two can stay home and take care of the… baby–making business?”
Shirley almost fainted from embarrassment, her face turning bright red. She raised her hand and slapped Amber on the head, whispering. “You naughty Amber, what are you saying?!”
Amber stuck out her tongue, then helped Shirley straighten her disheveled hair and clothes, smiling as she said, “Ms. Dunn, Ivy’s team has arrived in Harmonfield. They’ve prepared the product design proposal for this quarter’s Dunn Group brand endorsement, just waiting for your review and approval.”

“Did you schedule a time for them to come over?”
Shirley took a moment to calm herself, glancing at the me. Have her come straight to the villa for the meeting. Once we finalize this, I’ve got another meeting to attend.”
Half an hour later, Ivy arrived at the Vista Lake villa.
“Hi, Mr. Ramsey!” Ivy’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
Robin nodded, then stood and sat beside Marrisa. “You wo can talk.”
“Hello, Ms. Dickinson!” Marrisa waved her hand, smiling warmly.
“Marrisa, it’s good to see you again. You look so much better than before.”
Marrisa smiled, her face full of wrinkles, like a blooming flower. “I’ve been living the good life with Robin. Now he’s made me a big boss, and I’m still getting used to it.”
Ivy smiled, linking her arm with Marrisa’s, and then cast a quick glance at Robin. “Mr. Ramsey, will you be staying in Harmonfield for a while?”
Robin smiled faintly. “Not sure yet.”
Just then, Marrisa’s phone rang. The caller ID was Finley, the director of the PR team for Marrisa’s international chain group.
“Hello, Marrisa. The outreach department at Brighton University has confirmed the signing date for the donation agreement. Is 10 AM tomorrow convenient for you?”
Marrisa glanced at her legs and paused for a moment before replying, “Alright, let the school know that 10 AM tomorrow works.”
Marrisa’s group had donated 300 million to Brighton University to establish a fund for financially disadvantaged students.
This was the second major item on the agenda for her trip to Draconia.
“Robin, it looks like I’ll need to head to Brighton tonight. Otherwise, I won’t make it by tomorrow

Robin glanced at Marrisa’s legs. “Alright, I’ll take you there. I don’t have much going on here in Harmonfield anyway. It’s a good opportunity to check on Brenda.”
“Ms. Jenning, please book two high–speed train tickets for us. Taking the train is more convenient than flying
“Got

Robin shrugged casually. “Second–class seats are fine. Marrisa and I aren’t picky about the seats. It’s only a four–hour trip to Brighton.”
“Okay, I’ll book it.”

Ivy was shocked when she heard that Marrisa was going to donate 300 million to Brighton University to establish a scholarship fund for students in need.
“Marrisa, I have a sponsored student who is also attending Brighton University. I was just getting ready to send her some birthday gifts and living expenses today.
Marrisa exclaimed with delight, ‘Ms. Dickinson, you’re so kind. You’re doing something wonderful!
“How much do you provide her every month?”
“I gave her 3,000 Draconia coins for living expenses, with additional funds for tuition and any school- related activities. Over the past few years, it’s been about 100,000 a year, Ivy replied without hesitation.
“One hundred thousand? That’s a lot!” Amber exclaimed in surprise.
“Yes.” Ivy nodded.
“Her name is Rhea Chandler.
She mentioned that the expenses at Brighton are quite high. With so many activities each month, the 3,000 barely covers it.
“That’s why I’ve been thinking about increasing her allowance, so she can focus on her studies without the financial strain.”
Amber shook her head. “Aren’t you worried that giving her too much might spoil her? It could lead to some awkward situations later on.”
Ivy smiled bitterly. “When I was in school, my family was very poor. I know firsthand how hard it is to struggle just to afford an education.
“But, compared to before, the costs at school are definitely higher now.
“It’s alright. I earn a lot now, so I can give her a little more to case her burden.
Amber nodded but didn’t say anything else.
Marrisa took Ivy’s hand. “I’m actually heading to Brighton University. Let me take the money and deliver it to the girl for you.”
Ivy immediately waved her off.
“Marrisa, I understand. When you’re poor, your pride is at its strongest.
“If either of us personally hands her the money, it could hurt her pride..
“I’ll transfer it through the funding account instead. This way, she won’t feel like she’s being pitied.”
Marrisa nodded. That’s true! I hadn’t thought of that. You’re very considerate.”
She glanced at Shirley, who was busy, then looked back at Ivy, her eyes bright with pleasure.

She whispered to Robin, “Robin, it seems like Ms. Dickinson really likes you. I think that’s great.
Robin looked at Marrisa, amused by her excitement, and shook his head. “Since when did you love to gossip? You’re so boring! Go away!”
Marrisa gave him an exasperated look. “You troublemaker!”
As she glanced around at the other beautiful women in the lounge, a mischievous smile played on her lips.
Robin will never have trouble finding a wife now, hehe…
At 11 AM, after Casey helped Marrisa finish the necessary paperwork for the chamber of commerce, Robin accompanied Marrisa to Harmonfield High–Speed Rail Station.
As they entered the station, Robin noticed a mother and daughter walking slowly ahead of them.
The mother, around 50 years old, walked with noticeable difficulty.
Robin quickly deduced that the middle–aged woman likely had a heart condition.
The blood clots blocking her coronary arteries were causing her to struggle like this.
-Under normal circumstances, there wouldn’t be an immediate danger to her life.
However, any sudden physical strain could cause the clot to block the artery, potentially leading to a fatal heart attack due to a lack of blood flow to the heart.
He briefly thought about stepping in to help clear the blood clot that had been troubling her for years.
However, to outsiders, he would likely come across as a scammer.
It wasn’t a situation where he could offer assistance without raising suspicion.
He wasn’t a saint and couldn’t save everyone.
But there was something about the woman walking alongside her that piqued his interest.
The moment Robin caught sight of her back, he suddenly had a strong feeling of déjà vu.
It was a sense he had never experienced before.
The station was bustling with people heading to Brighton, and soon the mother and daughter disappeared into the crowd.
The second–class carriages were a bit crowded, and the station had even sold some standing tickets.
Robin and Marrisa made their way through the crowd and finally found two seats in the third row of the carriage.
The second–class seats were arranged in a 3+2 arrangement–three seats on one side and two on the other. Amber had purchased tickets for Robin and Marrisa, which were for two of the three seats on one side.
As they settled into their seats, they were surprised to find that the mother and daughter they had

encountered at the station were seated in the same row
The mother was coughing intermittently.

The young woman sat on the opposite side of the aisle from her mother, continuously weaving through the crowd to attend to her.
Seeing this, Robin stood up and said, “Miss, let me switch seats with you so you can better take care of your mother.”
The young woman nodded gratefully,
When their eyes met, both were momentarily taken aback by an overwhelming sense of familiarity.
Amid the crowd, they felt an unexpected connection.
Marrisa was stunned.
From the side profiles of Robin and the young woman, their eyes, noses, and even the shape of their lips were strikingly similar.
At first glance, they truly resembled a brother and sister
Could there really be such a striking resemblance between a man and a woman?
Robin stood frozen for a moment, staring absentmindedly at the young woman in front of him.
The woman blushed slightly. “Well, thank you, sir.”
Robin couldn’t help but gaze at her graceful figure and beautiful face.
An inexplicable sense of warmth and familiarity washed over him, as if this feeling had come from a distant childhood memory.
Robin watched the woman’s figure disappear into the crowd, lost in thought for a while, then shook his head with a self–mocking smile. How could he be feeling like this?
Is it possible I have a long–lost sister?
That dmn Old Fred never wanted to talk about these things
It was as if he had escaped from somewhere.
Marrisa noticed the middle–aged woman’s labored breathing and asked with concern, “Are you feeling unwell?”
The woman nodded. “Yes, I’ve had heart problems for many years.
“My daughter heard that there’s a hospital in Brookhaven that might be able to treat my condition, so she brought me here to get checked. But when we arrived, they couldn’t find anything wrong, so we had no choice but to come back..
“Sigh, the high–speed train tickets are so expensive,” the middle–aged woman said, shaking her head in
distress.

“She used up her entire year’s salary to bring me here for treatment, but we didn’t get any results. It really breaks my heart.
Behind them sat a young couple in their thirties, along with their two children, around ten years old.
The woman overheard Marrisa and the middle–aged woman’s conversation and sneered, muttering under her breath. “No money? What’s she doing taking the high–speed train? So tacky
Both Marrisa and the middle–aged woman heard the woman’s mockery. They just smiled and shook the heads.
They had both been on the receiving end of such mockery countless times and had long since grown used to the cruel behavior of people like that.

“Just a little trinket. I bought it for fun,” she said,
Robin nodded and pulled his hand back.

Once Marge and Marissa repacked, they decided to keep the package with them rather than storing it overhead.
Soon, Danny in the row behind began jumping around hitting Marge and Joanna’s seats repeatedly.
Marge frowned, wanting to ask him to stop, but Bonnie shot her a glare, so she let it go.
A few moments later, Danny grew tired of jumping and started eating snacks, tossing the trash forward.
Worse, his father, Horace Reese, propped his shoeless feet on the seat ahead, filling the air with an unpleasant smell.
Unable to stand it any longer, Marissa turned and asked, “Could you please quiet your child and take down your feet? This is a bit too much!”
With the aisle crowded, Robin couldn’t see what was happening.
Horace angrily pointed at Marissa and Marge, shouting. “Who do you think you are? This high–speed rail Isn’t yours! Who gave you the right to boss us around? Get lost!”
After pausing for a moment, Joanna said with displeasure. “What you’re doing is just out of line. Look around your child’s trash is everywhere, and it’s all over my mother and our seats.
“As a father, shouldn’t you set a good example? Putting your feet on our seats–is that appropriate?”
At that, Bonnie stood up and shoved Marrisa away. “What’s with you people? You act like you’ve never been on a high–speed rail! What are you comparing and arguing here? You’re causing a scene with no
manners!”
Horace gave a sneering look at Joanna. “Since you haven’t been on high–speed rail before, I’ll let it slide! But if you keep bothering my kid, don’t expect me to be polite!”
Marge quickly stepped in front of Joanna. “Fine, we won’t argue with you. this?
But bringing up kids lik You’re only spoiling them-
Suddenly, Bonnie slapped Marge’s face.
“How can you hit me?” Marge gasped, covering her cheek.
With a harsh shove, Bonnie snapped, “I’ll do whatever I want! What are you going to do about it? You beggar!”
Already unsteady, Marge was pushed so hard that she fell into the aisle, scattering the contents of her bag.
She lay there, face pale, struggling to breathe. In a moment, the carriage was in an uproar.
It was only then that Robin noticed what was happening. He quickly pulled off his headphones and rushed to help Marge with acupuncture.
If she wasn’t treated immediately, she might have suffocated.

Seeing Marge on the ground, Bonnie smirked. Trying to pull a scam on the rail, huh? You all saw it–1 didn’t touch her‘ If anything happens, don’t blame me
Robin ignored her taunts and focused on Marge, carefully working to stabilize her.
Bonnie shouted, “Guys, be my witnesses in this matter I didn’t lay a hand on her! If anything happens, it’s not my fault!”
“Be quiet” Robin snapped at her.
He quickly took out a silver needle and treated Marge, reducing the blood stasis near her heart.
Her face gradually regained color. Then, with a firm pat on her back, Marge coughed up some blood, her breathing finally casing.
Marge looked at Robin, feeling a sense of relief she hadn’t felt in years. “You know medicine?”
Robin nodded slightly. “I know a bit. You have a blood clot in your chest, likely from being struck by something heavy a long time ago. Since it was never removed, it’s led to these complications
At that moment. Marge grew alarmed. She noticed the emerald pendant she had dropped had been picked up by Danny.
“Mom, I want this pendant!” he said.
Before Bonnie could respond. Marge became extremely anxious and shouted, “Give me back my pendant!”
Danny refused and darted away.
Bonnie stepped in front of Marge, sneering. “It’s just an old pendant–not worth much. Here, take ten dollars for it!”
With a sharp slap, Robin struck her face. “Who do you think you are to act with such arrogance?”
A loud uproar erupted in the carriage.
Bonnie, still dazed from the slap Robin had delivered, was in shock.
Marge and Joanna couldn’t believe Robin had acted so boldly.
Marge apologetically pulled him back and said. “I’m sorry about this.”
Robin gave them a calm smile. “You two rest. I’ll handle it.”
Marissa, knowing what was coming, shook her head helplessly at the couple. She whispered, “Robin, let go. A small lesson is enough. Don’t take it too far.”
Though Marissa spoke softly, everyone around could hear her.
The other passengers, used to such behavior from arrogant and troublesome parents, knew better than to get involved. Confronting such people was worse than facing the most unpleasant situations.
The authorities usually took a passive approach in those cases, choosing not to punish unless necessary. Instead, they aimed for social harmony, which only encouraged more audacity from those rascals.
It was hard to say if staying silent was the only way to survive in this society, as ignoring them allowed those rascals to multiply.
Most people simply kept their distance from troublemakers, not wanting to get caught up in their mess.
They consoled themselves with the saying, “I can’t change the world, so I’ll change myself.”
So, they allowed kindness to suffocate while scoundrels flourished. Provoking such people meant inviting
disaster.
If a mad dog bit you, would you bite it back? If you stepped in cow dung, would you step in it again out of revenge? That would only make you dirtier because those rascals were like dung!
Many wondered if scholars ever studied this. How many generations of immorality did it take for such people to come into existence?
Those behaviors were passed down, making scoundrels like cockroaches that multiplied with each generation, thinking their actions were something to be proud of.
They would wear a badge that said, “I’m a scoundrel, and I’m proud of it! What can you do to me?”
So, when Robin stood up and Marissa spoke, the onlookers‘ eyes lit up with hope. They couldn’t act themselves, but they longed for a hero.
Robin patted Marissa’s shoulder. Tve got it. You help Mrs. Leif sit down. She needs a moment to rest.”
Bonnie, who had been slapped, and her husband, Horace, stood up abruptly.
Horace was tall, strong, and wore glasses, giving off a smug, refined air. He looked like a man who had experienced much in life, particularly with women.

When someone like him stood, an umpleasant aura filled the space, making everyone around instinctively step back. It was as if scoundrels had their presence when pushed too far.
Horace pointed at Robin angrily. “What kind of person are you to hit someone? You even hit a woman!”
Robin ignored him and coldly pointed at Danny “Give me back the pendant
Danny glared at Robin. “I like this pendant. It’s mine! 1th not giving it back! Daddy, Mommy-
Horace shoved Robin. “What the hell! You’re truly rude How dare you shout at a child-
Robin slowly turned to Horace. “Are you insulting me?
“Isn’t it right to scold you?” Horace pointed at his child. “He’s just a kid, but you treat him like this. You’re uncivilized and uncultured-”
Robin slapped him hard. “There’s a price for insulting me! If you don’t want things to get worse, hand over the pendant now!”
Horace was sent flying back to his seat, looking at Robin in shock. “You… you hit me? It’s too violent! I’ll call the police!”
“Give me back the pendant!” Robin’s voice was icy.
The temperature in the carriage seemed to drop instantly. The scoundrel couple sat frozen, dizzy from the turn of events.
They had always bullied others. No one had ever dared to treat them this way.
Danny stopped crying. Then, he abruptly threw the emerald pendant to the ground.
Crack!
The pendant shattered into three pieces. The onlookers gasped in disbelief. How could a ten–year–old be so malicious?
Trembling in shock, Marge rushed to the shattered pieces, and dropped to her knees, tears streaming as she murmured, “Ma’am, I deserve to die…”
But even that wasn’t enough for Danny. He stomped on Marge’s hand as she held the broken pieces. In a flash, Robin grabbed Danny’s neck and lifted him off the ground. “How can you be so wicked? You don’t deserve to live!”
Danny burst into tears.
Horace and Bonnie panicked, shouting. “Murder! Someone’s trying to kill our child!”
Joanna, fearing Robin might do something irreversible, quickly grabbed his arm. “Don’t! Let him go.” Seeing the pleading in her eyes, Robin softened, nodded, and tossed Danny into his parents‘ arms.
“You despicable family! You shouldn’t even be alive!”

“Still causing trouble? Robin snapped, pointing at Bonnie. “Next stop, you all get off! You guys will be doomed!”
She fell silent at the sheer hostility radiating from Robin.
Horace regained his composure and shouted, “You… you’re too cruel! Fine, we’ll settle this in Brighton!”
Robin nodded. Let’s see what you can do when we get there.”
Horace adjusted his glasses smugly. “Do you know who I am? I’m a department manager at the Northern Grand Hotel, under the Northlorn Residence-
“Northlon Residence?” Robin pulled out his phone and dialed. “Elliott Chandler, meet me at the Brighton high–speed rail station in ten minutes!”
Elliott Chandler?
Some of the onlookers recognized Elliott’s name.
They wondered if Robin was Elliott’s friend. But from the way he spoke, it sounded like Robin was more Impressive than Elliott.
Horace was slightly stunned but then chuckled. Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to Mr. Elliott like that!”
Robin ignored him and squatted to help Marge to her feet.
He looked at the broken pendant and comforted her, “I know a craftsman who’s an expert at repairing emeralds
Marge shook her head. “Thank you, but I don’t need it
She carefully wrapped the broken pendant, holding it close to her chest, tears still falling.
Ten minutes later, the high–speed rail arrived at Brighton.

The high–speed rail glided to a stop. Marge clutched the broken emerald pendant, overwhelmed by guilt.
Joanna embraced her, offering comfort, “Mom, please don’t be sad. As this kind man suggested, once I start earning, we can find someone to repair it..
“Let’s go. I still have to go to work later.”
Marge shook her head, eyes filled with helplessness. Streking Joanna’s face, she whispered tearfully, Tve failed you, dear. I couldn’t give you a better life. You shouldn’t have to endure so much
Joanna held Marge’s hand and smiled. “Mom, don’t talk like that. I’ll graduate in two years, and once I’m working. I’ll make plenty. Things will improve for us,”
Changing the subject she asked, “You said your chest feels lighter–was that real?”
Marge nodded. “Yes, it feels like two decades of pressure are gone, but I’m still a little tired. Mr. Ramsey-”
She suddenly paused, staring at Robin in amazement.
Robin frowned slightly. “Mrs. Leif, please don’t get agitated. You need rest. Try to stay in bed more and eat healthily.
“If you can, make soup with herbs a couple of times a month.”
Marge stood in a daze, unable to shake off her surprise Her gaze remained fixed on Robin, captivated by his tone, appearance, and commanding presence.
She murmured as if lost in disbelief, “How is this possible? Could it be…”
Joanna noticed her mother’s shock and quickly stepped in, saying. Thank you for helping my mother, Mr
Ramsey. We appreciate it.
“Let me treat you to a meal once I get my paycheck this month.”
“Okay!” Robin replied without hesitation, nodding readily.
He was eager to see Joanna again, sensing that they had stories yet to unfold–and that somehow, those stories might link to his past.
Joanna helped Marge to her feet. “Mom, I’ll take you home first after we get off”
Marge tried to divert her attention from Robin, packing her things quickly. “I can go back on my own, or you’ll be late for work.
She brushed off the idea, telling herself she was overthinking..
After finishing up, Marge checked the time. “It’ll probably take an hour to reach the Northern Grand Hotel. Let’s head to your workplace together”
Joanna thought about it. ‘Sure, Mom. I’ll buy you something to eat at the hotel first. You can relax in the lobby until my shift ends in a few hours.”

Just as they were about to leave, Horace behind them pointed accusingly at Robin. “You think you can just walk away after hitting me? This is my turf, and you won’t leave Brighton that easily!”
The passengers around them exchanged glances, noticing Horace’s swollen face and the threat in his
words.
Now that they were in his territory, he planned to call people to deal with Robin and his group,
Ignoring him. Robin supported Marrisa as they approached the station exit.
Horace persisted, shouting. “Stop! You can’t just hit someone and leave!”
Robin finally turned, saying, “So eager to meet your end? Even if everyone else runs, I’ll stay. I won’t back down from sc*m like you.
“Take a good look at this world–your time is ticking away!”
“What do you mean?” Bonnie scoffed. “Acting like a hero, are you?”
“You’ll understand soon,” Robin said, glancing at them with cold disdain. “Make the most of this life, for Your next is around the corner.
He reflected bitterly. He’d once been kind–hearted, but the ugliness of the world had hardened him. Scoundrels never changed. Better they were gone to cleanse the world.
As Robin, Marrisa, Marge, and Joanna walked away, Bonnie seethed, glaring at them. Her family had never backed down from a fight, and she wouldn’t let this be the first.
No way! We’re not going to let our pride be trampled today! You might think you’re tough, but you’re still just rookies. compared to us!
“Call my brother and tell him to bring some people to beat them up! They must be out of their minds to mess with us!”
Upon hearing her words, Horace quickly sent a message
Others nearby, who were originally in the same carriage, trailed after Robin and his group, intrigued by the brewing clash.
They were eager to see if the rogues would win or if justice would come out on top. Some passengers even left their bags behind to wait at the station entrance, excited for the showdown.
Exiting the high–speed rail station, onlookers were stunned by the view outside the square.
Private cars weren’t usually allowed to park there, yet today, 20 luxury cars were lined up, each guarded by men in black suits. It looked like someone of great importance had arrived in Brighton.
While flashy arrivals weren’t rare here, those who recognized the expensive cars and their unique plates knew they were reserved for Northlorn Residence’s VIP receptions. Who could they possibly be here to greet?
People stopped to watch as a young man stepped out of the second car, causing a murmur of surprise.

Marge and Joanna were astonished. They hadn’t realized the man sitting next to them on the high speed. rail was someone of such high standing
Marge quickly bid farewell to Marrisa and Robin, sensing they didn’t belong in such a setting
As Joanna hurried off with her, Robin wanted to stop them but chose to stay silent.
Before he could say a word, Danny’s family appeared, equally stunned by the scene,
Horace looked at Bonnie, exclaiming, “Your brother’s truly thriving in Brighton–he’s gone a whole fleet of luxury can!”
Pointing at Robin and Marrisa as they walked away, Horace shouted, Just wait and see Danny tugged his father’s sleeve and said, “Daddy, I want you to kill them!”

Dabby and his sister, Daisy, nodded. “Yes, Mommy, we got it. We’ll ask Uncle Brennan to deal with that fool!”
Daisy shot a fierce look toward Robin. Let’s make him pay by cutting off his hands before he dies”
Bonnie smiled and asked, “Why?”
“Because he hit Daddy! Even if he’s dead, he needs to know that anyone who messes with us loses their hands! Daisy’s words, full of defiance, took others aback.
Bonnie, however, laughed. “That’s what I like to hear! You two are brilliant. You’ll go far!”
Just then, a heavyset man arrived, panting, with two strong men in tow. “What’s going on, Bonnie? Horace? Who dared mess with you?”
Bonnie pointed over at Robin and Marrisa. They did!”
“Well, let’s see who’s brave enough to cause trouble-”
Brennan Meyer trailed off as he noticed Elliott and others bowing to Robin. “Bonnie, are you sure it’s him?”
“Yes!” Horace began to sense something was amiss.
“Those cars–they aren’t yours?” he asked.
Brennan shook his head. “Definitely not. They belong to Elliott’s hotel. We should leave immediately.”

The siblings dug in, refusing to budge
“Uncle Brennan, take us to kill them they yelled. “We want to cut off his hands!”
Bonnie hurried to hush them, terrified. “Quiet! I was talking about regular people. With folks like this, we need to show respect-
But before she could finish, Robin turned and addressed Elliott. Do you know them?” he asked coldly
Elliott, sensing Robin’s anger, shook his head. “No, Mr. Ramsey. Did they say they’re connected to me?”
He looked at Danny’s family and said, ‘I don’t know them. Mr. Ramsey, is that what they said?”
Robin sneered. “They said as much, claiming they’d ruin me once you arrived.”
Elliott stiffened. He cursed inwardly–how dared they use his name!
He took a deep breath and said, “Mr. Ramsey, I know what needs to be done!”
With a quick gesture toward the couple, Brennan felt a shiver of fear.
Realizing that Elliott was prepared to deal with them harshly, Brennan knew it was too late to flee.
Summoning his courage, he nudged Horace and Bonnie and warned. “Get down on your knees and beg for mercy from Mr. Elliott and his friend, or you’re done for!”
Trembling. Horace and Bonnie hurriedly held their children and stumbled over to Robin and Elliott.
But before they could speak, Danny raised his finger at Robin and yelled. “You struck us! I want you dead!”
Daisy, equally fierce, glared at Robin and shouted, “Cut off his hands first!”
Enraged, Elliott slapped both Danny and Daisy. “You brats! Who gave you the courage to insult Mr. Ramsey!”
Horace and Bonnie immediately dropped to their knees, pleading. “Mr. Elliott, we had no idea he was your friend. Please show mercy! We’ll make sure to raise our children properly and treat others with kindness
At that moment, it hit them that Robin might be someone far more important than Elliott. They understood then that their only hope was to gain his forgiveness.
“Mr. Ramsey…
With a cold stare, Robin said, “If I weren’t friends with Elliott–just an average person without influence- you’d walk all over me without a second thought! I won’t forgive those who provoke me!”
He added sharply. “For people like you to act this arrogantly–it’s a travesty if you don’t face justice!”

Marrisa was still shaken by the panic she’d just felt. Glancing up, she noticed Robin gazing blankly out the rain–streaked window.
Following his gaze, she saw two figures, Joanna and Marge, walking side by side in the dim, rainy twilight. Her heart fluttered with a sudden pang of sadness.
With the cold wind blowing and rain falling, the sight of Joanna and Marge–frail and thin–became at hauntingly poignant scene on the long, empty road.
In a hushed voice, Marrisa asked, “Robin, should we help them?”
Sitting in the passenger seat, Elliott turned his attention to Robin as well.
Robin sighed softly. Wo, let them go their own way. I don’t want to disturb their calm. They be happier that way.
Marrisa nodded in agreement, understanding his point. She looked back out the window at th
women, soaked yet smiling in the rain.
It reminded her of the tough times she had endured with Robin and Brenda in Chinatown–those difficult days when just being together as a family brought happiness.
That was the simple, deep joy that people of humble hearts and modest means truly valued.
No wealth could ever replace such genuine happiness. Thinking of Robin’s harsh treatment toward that family, she finally understood.
There were always gentle souls struggling below while others, with only a hint of money, bullied them, trying to assert their worth.
Those kinds of people deserved no sympathy!
The convoy from Northlorn Residence moved slowly past Joanna and Marge. Elliott signaled for the vehicles to slow down, not wanting the tires to splash water on them.
“Mr. Ramsey, should we intervene?” he noticed the look in Robin’s eyes and asked softly.
Robin dismissed the idea with a wave. “No need. Let them live their lives.”
He then instructed Elliott to let his convoy stop following them after entering the city, asking him to leave just one car to take him to Brighton University.
Elliott, eager to host Robin, suggested a dinner first, or even personally escorting Brenda from the university, but Robin declined with a slight smile, saying, “That won’t be necessary.”
So, Elliott dismissed all vehicles and drove Robin and Marrisa to Brighton University.
As the drizzle eased, Brighton University appeared refreshed and vibrant. The courtyard was a vision of blossoms in bloom, and petals from recent rains carpeted the paths in a stunning array of colors.
Strolling along the blossoming path on campus, the scent of books and youthful energy enveloped them..

The deep academic atmosphere made Marissa, who had never been on a university campus before, feel unexpectedly sophisticated.
“Robin, hack when I was young. I always envied the wealthy girls who got to go to school” she said. “If I could turn back time, I’d love to experience school”
Robin grinned. “Marissa, you could still go to school now
Marissa chuckled. “I barely finished elementary school don’t think I’m cut out for it.”
Robin frowned a bit. “These days, plenty of people who never went past elementary school have titles like master, doctor, or even professor. At least you finished elementary school–what’s stopping you?”
Marissa shook her head. “It’s not about the titles, I just yearn for the chance to study and learn. Titles don’t mean anything to me. I’m satisfied that Brenda has the opportunity to attend university.
“Brenda knows she has to catch up, so she’s working hard now. Seeing her make the most of this opportunity you helped her, I feel relieved.”
Just then, Brenda hurried over from the library, beaming “Robin! Marissa! You’re here!
“When I heard you were coming by, I was thrilled. Let me take you both to lunch in the cafeteria.”

Robin noticed how thin Brenda had become and affectionately patted her head. “Let me treat proper meal. You’re practically all skin and bones!”
“Great! That’ll save me a meal. Brenda laughed.
Robin turned to her. “So, how much allowance docs Marissa give you each month?”
“She gave me a card with a balance of one million. But I’m careful with it. My monthly expenses come to about 800 dollars, which is more than enough,” Brenda explained. “After a few months, I can afford some new books and clothes with extra left over. The annual tuition runs around 25,000, not more than 30,000.
Robin nodded. “You don’t have to be so frugal, you know. Money is always around. If Marissa isn’t giving you enough, I can help too.”
Brenda laughed. “We used to be so tight on money that it still feels strange to spend much. But I promise I’m taking care of myself.
“Spending less doesn’t mean I’m skimping on food or clothes. Look at this outfit–I got it online for a little over 100 dollars. I think it looks pretty nice!”
Robin gave her an affectionate pat. “Good job, Brenda!
“Alright, let’s go! I’ll treat you to something tasty at Northern Food Plaza, just up ahead–it’s close to your school, so we can walk there”
“Oh, I love the Northern Food Plaza!” Brenda said happily, linking arms with them as they headed toward the gate.
“There’s Northern Hotel and all kinds of places like tutoring centers, gyms, and entertainment shops. I think it’s all under the ownership of Northlorn Residence.

Marissa stopped abruptly, looking thoughtful. “Brenda, do you know someone named Rhea Chandler
“Rhea?” Brenda looked surprised. “How do you know her?”
Marissa hesitated, then replied, “I just heard her name on the way here and was curious. Is she having a tough time? If so, maybe you could invite her to join us
“Invite her?” Brenda hesitated. “She’s not having a tough time at all–she’s way wealthier than I am
“She’s richer than you?” Marissa tried to hide her surprise. She remembered Ivy’s advice to keep Phee’s sponsored status private to avoid hurting her pride.
“Is she well–off?” Marrisa asked.
Brenda shrugged. “Oh, definitely. She’s always in designer brands, changes outfits constantly, and even bas shoes worth thousands. She’s always got the latest gadgets, too.”
Marissa glanced at Robin, saying. That might not be the same person.”
“That’s Rhea.” Brenda pointed to a girl biking nearby,
“She’s my roommate. See that bike? It’s worth over 30,000! She’s truly well–off

Altogether, her outfit and accessories probably cost around 50,000.
Her stylish new haircut and makeup alone seemed like they cost a small fortune. That was the kind of life only the children of the very wealthy enjoyed.
Rhea noticed Brenda and the others, riding her flashy bike right up to them. She stopped and rested one Jeg on the ground, casting a condescending glance over Marrisa’s outfit and bag.
Marrisa’s entire outfit–carefully chosen online with Shirley the day before–had taken them more than an hour to pick.
The shoes cost 370 dollars, the handbag cost 350 dollars, and the clothes cost 580 dollars.
Shirley loved the store’s styles and even bought herself two outfits.
Sizing up Marrisa’s look, Rhea glanced at the casually dressed Robin. With a smirk, she asked Brenda, “Who are they?”
Proudly linking arms with Marrisa and Robin, Brenda replied, “My mom and brother.”
“Oh, they’re from the countryside, aren’t they?” Rhea sneered. “You could take them to the cafeteria later and add a few more dishes. If it’s not enough, I could spot you for more.”
Brenda simply smiled. “Thanks, but no need. My brother’s taking us out for a nice meal”
“A nice meal?” Rhea tried not to laugh. “Oh, I know–a street near the school with vendors at night. People say the food there is super cheap”

She snickered. “I’d never go; it’s filthy. But hey, you might enjoy it.”
Holding up a small, ornate box, she continued, “Brenda, look at this bag my sister sent me for my birthday. It was 8,000! How does it look to me?”
Robin noticed Ivy’s name on the shipping label.
“Your sister?” Brenda casually asked.
“Yep, she’s a big star Rhea said proudly.
Brenda forced a smile, not wanting to continue the conversation. “Oh, I see. I envy you.”

She was about to leave with Marrisa and Robin when Rhea pulled out a bank card, waving it in Brenda’s face. “My sister sent me another 3,000, just to spend as like.”
She gave Brenda a dismissive look. “You should try not to be so thrifty. School food’s not great. I haven’t eaten in the cafeteria once–all my meals are from upale places. That’s what real living is.”

With a sneer, she added, “Oh, but I forgot. You’d need the money to keep up with that.”
Laughing, she said, “Let’s chat next time–I’ll go to a party tonight with the most popular guy at school!”
Robin watched her go, shaking his head. “What a naive show–off.”
Marissa seemed to have caught on as well, looking puzzled at Rhea’s back.
“What’s going on?” She looked at Robin. “Did Ms. Dickinson fall for it?”
“Maybe. Either way, she deserves it for having too much sympathy, Robin said with a shrug. “Come on, let’s grab a bite.”
Marissa frowned. “Should we tell Ms. Dickinson about it?”
Robin pulled her along. “Hey, remember to stay out of others‘ affairs!”
“But Ms. Dickinson was tricked, wasn’t she?” Marissa said, frustrated.
Robin shook his head. “So what? Telling her now wouldn’t make a difference–she wouldn’t believe it.
“Reality will eventually show her that not all acts of kindness get recognized, and they can sometimes lead to resentment or greed.
“You’re not a savior; things will play out as they’re meant to. Now, let’s go eat.”
Brenda patted Marissa, who was still a bit stunned. “Come on, Marissa, listen to Robin. You’re a big boss. now–think like one. Let people live their lives; no need to overthink things.”
“Alright.” Marrisa quickly caught on and followed Robin.
After a ten–minute walk, the three arrived at Northern Business Plaza, a bustling complex owned by Northlorn Residence.
It housed the Northern Grand Hotel, Northern Delights, and Northern Department Store, covering almost every kind of business. It was one of Brighton’s three main commercial hubs,
Located near Brighton University, Northern Business Plaza also hosted rooms leased to various training institutions, offering everything from early childhood to postgrad and overseas prep programs. Each evening, the area buzzed with activity.
Entering the lobby, Marissa spotted Marge seated in a lounge area with a bottle of water and a pancake in hand.
“Robin, look, do you see who’s there?”
Robin glanced in the direction Marissa pointed, noticing Marge cheerfully eating her snack.
