The Deadly Assassin Robin novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 Who Are You Calling Trash?
The following morning, Robin and Shirley made their way to Violetcrest Club, accompanied by Amber Jenning, a business assistant from the Dunns.

The gathering at the Violetcrest Club had been arranged by Daphne from Alphacrest Group.

The purpose was to discuss how investment shares for the Eastvale Ecological Project would be distributed.

The Eastvale Ecological Project had four main stakeholders: Daphne from Alphacrest Group, Shirley from the Dunns Group, Rygar from Helix Group, and Perry Hamilton from Universal Estates.

Recently, disagreements have arisen regarding the redistribution of investments and the classification of project funds.

Daphne of Alphacrest Group maintained that the Eastvale Ecological Project should be viewed as a unified entity.

Any changes to the pre-established development plan would likely result in fierce competition and unnecessary internal strife among the four parties.

To resolve these issues, they had scheduled a meeting at Violetcrest Club, a leisure facility owned by Alphacrest Group.

It was at Violetcrest Club that Daphne built her empire.

This legendary woman in the business world of Harmonfield has created numerous astonishing miracles since she arrived here.

In just five years, she had consolidated various fragmented leisure resources in Harmonfield, outmaneuvered Rygar in five direct confrontations, and eventually secured a non-aggression pact.

Through constant struggle, she had built her current ecological leisure industry empire in Harmonfield, named Alphacrest Group.

Daphne was domineering, extremely talented, and possessed unparalleled beauty—a queen-like figure in the business world of Harmonfield.

Nevertheless, she was also known for her coldheartedness.

In the early years, anyone who dared to challenge her or her organization often met an untimely demise.

Her success in the competitive business world was not only due to her ruthless strategies but also because of her extraordinarily influential and enigmatic background.

All the underground forces in Harmonfield kept their distance.

Even Rygar, the underground kingpin of Harmonfield, treaded carefully around her.

About thirty minutes later, Robin, Shirley, and Amber arrived at the Violetcrest Club, nestled in the vast Mount Azure.

The club was luxurious and expansive, with grand facilities that contradicted the usual subtlety and privacy of a private club.

Its impressive exterior was a clear reflection of its owner's extravagant taste.

The Violetcrest Club boasted a variety of recreational amenities: bars, restaurants, golf courses, game rooms, and shooting ranges.

As soon as Robin and the others exited the parking lot, they encountered familiar faces: Alice and Zachary.

They were accompanied by Alice's friend, Vera Silva, and Raymond Hampton, the heir of Hampton Properties.

Robin, disinterested in their presence, led Shirley and Amber toward the dart and archery range.

Daphne had planned for the morning to be a relaxed affair, allowing everyone to enjoy the club's amenities, with the important discussions scheduled for the afternoon.

Shirley, a fan of darts, was eager to play, and Robin, indifferent to the activity, chose to accompany her to the range.

Right after they had gotten the darts, Alice and Zachary arrived.

With a smirk, Zachary approached them and said, "Hi, Ms. Dunn.

"I've heard you're quite proficient in darts and archery. Since we're all here together, why not make it a friendly competition and add some excitement to the day?"

Shirley, recognizing their underlying motives, replied coolly, "I'm not interested."

Faced with Shirley's refusal, Zachary gave her a dismissive shrug and a self-deprecating smile. "Alright, Ms. Dunn. If you're not interested, we'll drop it."

He then turned to Robin with a mocking tone. "Oh, right, darts and archery are typically for the refined and elite. Some people might not have even had the chance to try them.

"Ms. Dunn probably doesn't want to compete with us because she's trying to save face for him."

Exchanging glances with Alice, Raymond, and Vera, they all laughed together.

Zachary's bold attitude in front of Shirley stemmed from the Gills' connections with the Hamiltons, who owned Universal Group and had managed to arrange this meeting with Daphne.

Robin recognized that Zachary and Alice were deliberately trying to embarrass him, but he was too indifferent to engage.

He chose to ignore them and focused instead on the guests in the horseback riding and archery range.

Shirley, noticing the covert jabs aimed at Robin, was clearly annoyed.

"Alright, if you're so eager, let's have a contest," she said firmly.
