Chapter 131 You Can Treat It as a Legend
Noticing two police officers still eyeing her warily, Vera gave them a disdainful look.
“Excuse me, officers,” she called out. “Shouldn’t you be focusing on crowd control instead of staring at a woman? If you keep staring. I’ll report you!“
The two young officers exchanged irritated glances with Vera but eventually looked away.
At that moment. Alice rugged her arm. “Vera, look at this mess. Robin’s antics have gone too far. With the way he’s behaving, he’s bound to face serious consequences.”
Vera pursed her lips. “Can’t you tell the officers are here to maintain order because of Robin’s influence?”
“Order? For him?” Alice scoffed. “They’re probably here to arrest him! It’s reckless to challenge SunEast Bank like this–it’s like attacking a mountain with a pebble.
“In today’s world, power belongs to the wealthy! Robin’s out of his depth if he thinks a little money will take on a bank. What’s next? Trying to pull this stunt to get my attention?
“He knows if he can’t pay back the money, it’ll become a trending topic online-
Alice continued her rant, but a nearby woman cut her off. “Ms. Dunn, Ms. West, and Mr. Rygar have already delivered a substantial amount to cover the debt
“How shameless! Why would he need your attention? Are you narcissistic? You should go to a doctor!” Alice snapped, “Robin was engaged to me back then! I ended it because I didn’t care for him!”
Vera quickly stepped in, “Come on, Alice, don’t get worked up over this. It’s not worth it.”
Alice gave a dismissive snort, silencing her argument with the other woman.
Vera leaned in and whispered, “Alice, she wasn’t lying. Ms. Dunn, Ms. West, and Mr. Rygar did send money to Robin.”
With a sarcastic chuckle, Alice replied, “You actually believe that? The way things are going, half the police force in Harmonfield is here; Robin’s probably in big trouble today!”
Vera replied earnestly, “I’m serious. I just talked to Robin on WhatsApp–they’ve raised 3.8 billion.” Alice shook her head with a smirk. “Are you telling me Shirley, Daphne, and Rygar all pitched in? Robin must be exaggerating. Maybe the Dunns helped a bit, but as for the others, that’s a stretch.
“Daphne’s too proud to come all this way for him!” she scoffed. “Do you think Robin is a legend, Vera?”

Laughing, Vera replied, “Well, you can think of him as legend if you want.”
As they talked, two military SUVs and an armored van pulled up in front of the SunEast Bank. Several police officers stepped in to check the vehicles, prompting Marcel and Peter to rush over.
Freya drove a training vehicle for the War Wolf Special Forces.

She handed her ID to Marcel and Peter. “Mr. Fisher, M. Shelton, here is my identification”

Recognizing her, Marcel and Peter smiled. “Ah, Mr. Wright’s daughter! What brings you here? “Robin is my uncle’s friend,” she explained. Tm here on his behalf to deliver funds–four billion in cash.” She gestured to the SUVs. “I had to request a special vehicle from the War Wolf Special Forces to safely bring this to the SunEast Bank. Please let us through.”
Marcel and Peter quickly ordered the officers to clear a path. Freya drove up to the bank entrance, followed by a dozen soldiers in plainclothes who unloaded several secured cash boxes and entered the lobby.
Inside, Freya spotted Robin in the crowd and approached him. The boxes were neatly stacked in the center of the lobby, creating quite a stir as people looked on in awe.
For a moment, they were a bit dazed, wondering what had happened.
“Here’s the four billion in cash. Get the bank staff to start counting.” Freya said.
Robin shrugged. “Freya, we already raised 3.8 billion, so your trip was kind of unnecessary
Caught off guard, Freya asked, “Already raised?”
She then noticed Shirley across the lobby. “Shirley, I should’ve guessed you had a hand in this.”
With a soft smile, Shirley replied, “I couldn’t do it alone. It was with help from Ms. West and Mr. Rygar that we just managed to scrape it together.
“If I’d known you were bringing four billion, I wouldn’t have been so anxious.”
