The Deadly Assassin Robin

Chapter 179 Robin Won't Make It Through the Night

Vera was initially taken aback when she heard Robin demand a staggering billion from the Lynches.

However, a glimmer of joy soon lit up her eyes.

She wiped away her tears and focused on Robin's determined face, which was as indifferent as a gentle breeze.

A wave of warmth swelled in her chest, melting away the ice that had settled in her heart.

Sunlight broke through the swaying tree branches, showering the ground in golden sparkles that twinkled like a sky full of stars. Surrounded by the aura of Robin's tall and confident presence, she felt as if she were lost in a dream.

The radiant light morphed into his magnificent armor.

Vera found herself enchanted!

In a trance, the light seemed to dance around her, and her captivating eyes shone brightly.

A soft breeze swept by, carrying the freshness of a vibrant spring morning.

The man riding the clouds of a rainbow, stepping lightly upon the wind, was the very hero she had envisioned in her dreams!

As a child, her mother had told her that regardless of the trials and tribulations one faces in life, as long as she persevered and maintained faith that true kindness existed in the world, the great hero she awaited would undoubtedly arrive by her side under the watchful gaze of spring.

"Haha... "Vera laughed, wrapping her arm around Robin's, her voice bubbling with joy. "Robin, are you really my hero coming to whisk me away and marry me on a rainbow cloud?"

Robin paused, looking bewildered. "Huh? A hero coming to marry you?..."

Why is this woman suddenly speaking in such theatrical lines?

"

"Hmph! What nonsense! Are you both out of your minds?" Lewis interjected, his tone icy.

"Kid, do you really think the Lynches would pay you a billion for a broken car? Why not just rob a bank instead?"

Robin gently freed Vera's arm from his and replied, "Let's talk about marriage later... I mean, let's save your lines for another time."

"Hehe... "Vera giggled at Robin's flustered response, seemingly unaware of the chaos surrounding them.

Watching Robin and Vera interact ignited a furious blaze in Lewis's eyes.

Clearly, Robin had no respect for him, the second steward of the Lynches.

If it weren't for Freya being present, Lewis would have been tempted to strike both Robin and Vera down right then and there.

Robin and Vera exchanged knowing glances before he shot Lewis a cool smile. "I'm robbing you right now! You damaged the gift I gave to Vera; if you can't cough up a billion, you can't even think about leaving!"

Lewis shot a glance at the unflappable Freya, pointing at Robin. "Kid, don't test your luck! If it weren't for the Wrights' reputation, I would have dealt with you by now!"

Turning to Freya, he continued, "Ms. Wright, it's not that I want to leave; it's just that this guy is making a scene. He's demanding a billion for a wrecked car-that's just plain extortion!"

Freya examined the damaged Porsche with an air of indifference. "This is your problem. If you deliberately damage someone else's property, of course you have to make it right! How you go about it is for you to sort out." Lewis frowned, clearly irked. Freya was clearly siding with Robin!

He took a step forward. "Kid, just give me your card number. We'll settle on ten million! Not a cent more! The Lynches will never pay you a billion!"

"What if I don't agree?" Robin replied coolly.

"Don't agree?" Lewis looked at the Porsche 918 and scoffed, "If you don't want the money, why not just crash into me, and we'll call it even?"

"Is that your proposal? If I crash into your car, we're square?" Robin glanced at the three modified Mercedes SUVs the Lynches had brought, which were worth at least 50 million.

Lewis smirked coldly, surprised that Robin was even considering settling things with a crash. Ha, this kid must be out of his mind.

He raised his eyes to Robin. "Of course, no matter how you crash, we'll accept any outcome!"

Robin replied nonchalantly, "Any outcome, huh?"

Lewis waved him off. "Do whatever you want! Hurry up; we've got places to go and no time to waste on you!"

"Alright, then!" Robin nodded.

Lewis instructed his team to help Jamie into the back of one of the SUVs.

In his mind, no matter how Robin crashed the Porsche 918, it wouldn't leave a mark on their heavily modified Mercedes SUVs.

They couldn't care less about Robin crashing the cars.

The Lynches all piled into their cars, waiting for Robin to finish his crash before they drove away.

Quincy, who had been observing from the sidelines, suddenly burst into laughter. "He's saying no to ten million and are going to use a Porsche to crash into a Mercedes instead? He must be out of his mind!" Onlookers mocked Robin's plan, "This guy is a bit slow; he's completely missing the point!"

"Ugh, he's so irrational! He's just venting frustration without any benefit, and he might even get hurt."

"Who in their right mind would pick such a ridiculous way to resolve a problem?!"

Vera was perplexed by Robin's choice.

Could it really be that the Porsche 918 was more resistant to impacts than their customized Mercedes SUV? Hadn't that car already been involved in an accident?

The Mercedes belonging to the Lynches appeared completely intact, while the Porsche was utterly destroyed.

The steel plating they had added was double the thickness of what you'd find in a standard vehicle, and the windows were fortified against bullets.

If another crash occurred, it was highly likely that the people inside would sustain injuries.

Freya also found herself questioning Robin's logic.

It was clear that solving things in this manner was futile.

Even if the situation didn't revolve around finances, acting out of anger wouldn't bring them any true satisfaction.

At that moment, Eric pushed his way through the throng, searching for Robin. "Mr. Ramsey, what's going on? I was trying to discuss the Silva shares with you-"

Robin cut him off, "You arrived just in time. Let's set the Silva shares aside for the moment. I need two heavy-duty trucks to be brought here immediately."

Eric hesitated, clearly bewildered. "Heavy-duty trucks? Absolutely! I've got a construction site nearby with a few trucks, all over 30 tons. If you need them, they can be here in 30 seconds.

"Mr. Ramsey, what do you need those trucks for?" Eric inquired, curious.

Robin gestured toward the three Mercedes SUVs ahead. "I want you to run them over!"

Eric glanced at Lewis and Jamie in the vehicles, paused briefly, then grinned. "Alright, consider it done! I'll bring five trucks; I can guarantee those three cars will be reduced to scrap metal!"

Moments later, five thirty-ton trucks roared toward them, the thunder of their engines reverberating through the ground.

Inside their vehicles, Lewis and the others were beginning to panic. Noticing that Robin had yet to take the Porsche to crash into them, they leaned out and shouted, "Robin, are you going to hit us or what? If not, we're leaving!" Robin shot back a smirk. "Of course I'm going to hit you. Here it comes!"

With that, Eric directed the five trucks to charge toward the Mercedes SUVs.

Seeing the trucks hurtling toward them, Lewis bolted out of the car, yelling at Eric, "Who do you think you are? You dare to mess with the Lynches of Brighton?"

Eric retorted, "That's ridiculous! I don't care about the Lynches or your family. I only answer to Mr. Ramsey!"

He waved his hand toward the approaching trucks and shouted, "Hit them!"

The five trucks lined up and mercilessly collided with the three luxury Mercedes SUVs.

Meanwhile, Jamie remained inside the car.

Observing the chaos unfold, Lewis urged them to pull Jamie out.

They stumbled away, yelling, "Robin! How can you use these trucks to smash our cars?"

The five trucks rolled over the three Mercedes like a line of tanks, crushing them again and again.

Onlookers gasped in horror.

It turned out Robin had no intention of using the Porsche; he was opting for these enormous trucks instead!

The three SUVs, valued at over 50 million, were swiftly reduced to a pile of twisted metal. Everyone stood in shock.

Vera finally snapped back to her senses.

As she watched Lewis and his crew scatter in a panic, she jumped up excitedly, linking arms with Robin. All her previous frustrations seemed to disappear in an instant.

"Feeling a little better now?" Robin asked, pulling out a wet wipe to clean his hands as he looked down at her.

Suddenly, Vera rose onto her tiptoes and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

Startled, Robin stepped back, exclaiming, "Hey! You can't just take advantage of me like that!" Vera flushed and shot him a teasing glare, muttering, "Geez, this guy has zero sense of romance!" Freya, witnessing the exchange, quickly averted her gaze, a light blush creeping across her face. Robin examined the wreckage and gave Eric a friendly pat on the shoulder. "You did great with this."

Eric beamed as though he had just received a huge reward and jumped onto one of the trucks, riding off with a big smile.

Lewis stormed up to Robin. "Are you trying to provoke the Lynches?"

Robin shrugged. "What's it to you? So what if I am?"

"Look at the destruction you caused to our cars!" Lewis yelled, angrily gesturing toward the mangled remains.

Robin shrugged again. "Weren't you the one who said you wouldn't pay a billion for the damage? You told me to just crash into your cars and promised you'd accept any consequences! Are you backing down now?" "You're completely unreasonable!" Lewis fumed. "You used five trucks to smash my car...

Robin chuckled lightly. "Old man, didn't you say the Lynches don't care about right or wrong, just what they need?

"I did according to your logic!

"I needed those heavy-duty trucks to demolish your cars, so that's what I did."

Lewis, infuriated, pointed at Robin, momentarily at a loss for words.

Jamie wiped blood from his mouth, gritting his teeth. "Freya, you saw how that jerk treated me. Are you really defending him?"

Freya ignored Jamie's outburst as two armed security guards swiftly moved in front of her.

Recognizing that the situation was escalating, Lewis realized that if he pressed on, Freya would undoubtedly step in.

He shot Robin a fierce glare. "Just wait! I won't forget this!"

Robin smiled coldly. "I'll be here waiting. I hope you have the guts to confront me when we meet again."

Lewis swallowed his anger and, along with his four bodyguards supporting Jamie, quickly exited the area.

Once away from the crowd, Jamie fumed, "Lewis, we can't let this go! We need to deal with Robin tonight!" Lewis nodded firmly. "Don't worry, Mr. Jamie. Robin won't make it through the night!"

Freya and the others drove off.

Quincy, who had just gotten back on her feet, pointed at Vera. "You witch! You and Robin have crossed the Lynches! You've endangered us all! Lewis won't let this slide!"

Vera ignored her tirade and turned coldly to Harvey. "This afternoon, we're having a shareholders meeting for the Silva Group. I have something significant to announce!"
