The Deadly Assassin Robin novel Chapter 164

 

Chapter 164 Darling, Do You Still Need Money? 

Piper watched in disbelief as Vera clung to Robin, laughing in a way that was both carefree and disconcerting. 

Shaking her head, she exclaimed, “Ms. Silva, I’m not joking around here. You really should distance yourself from him!” 

Vera deliberately leaned her head on Robin’s shoulder, adopting an excessively affectionate posture. 

“Why should I stay away from him?” she asked, her tone playful. “If he’s so charming, shouldn’t I be close to him? If I keep my distance, another woman might steal him away, don’t you think? Hehe!” 

Piper looked at Vera with disdain, unable to understand her stubbornness, “Ms. Silva, it’s inappropriate for someone of your status to be with him. He’s not up to your level. That guy is nothing but a conman! He’ll drain your bank account dry!” 

“Is that so?” Vera responded, still smiling nonchalantly. 

Tactually wish he would con me. Whatever amount he needs, I’d give it to him! Because I like him, hehe.” 

Piper was taken aback. “Ms. Silva, how can you be so blind? You are aware that he is lying to you, yet you continue to allow him to do so. 

Just then, the elevator dinged, announcing their arrival at the 20th floor. 

Vera suddenly placed a hand over her heart and said, “Ms. Dawson, thank you for your advice, but there’s nothing I can do about this.” 

Fury sparked in Piper’s eyes as she questioned, “What do you mean, Ms. Silva? Is he threatening you?” 

Vera’s playful demeanor vanished as she clung to Robin’s arm, her voice turning painful, “No, he hasn’t threatened me. H–he’s stolen my heart! I couldn’t live a moment without him! Hahaha!“ 

“Oh dear!” Robin could only shake his head in disbelief. 

Watching Vera’s theatrics, he felt close to losing his mind. 

This woman could be an actress; her talent was wasted on everyday life. 

“Come on, darling, let’s go home and eat,” Vera said, linking her arm with Robin as they exited the elevator. 

Piper watched them leave, her mind racing with frustration. After a moment, she shook her head in disappointment and said, “What a disgrace!” 

Rosalie tugged at her sleeves. “Piper, maybe you should keep those words to yourself. 

“It’s not nice for you to call Robin a conman every time you see him,” Rosalie advised gently. 

“What if Ms. Silva is Robin’s girlfriend? It’s rather rude, 

Gritting her teeth, Piper glared at Vera’s seductive figure. “I will expose that fraud Robin for who he truly

As they reached Robin’s door, Vera turned back and waved at Piper with a bright smile. “Goodbye, you 

Iwol 

With that, she laughed playfully and stepped into the apartment with Robin. 

Fuming, Piper exclaimed, “That shameless woman! Robin, that fraud, is only fooling around with someone as foolish as her. She deserves every bit of it! 

Rosalie pulled on Piper’s arm, speaking softly. “Piper, why do you care so much about other people’s affairs?” 

“Why shouldn’t I? Piper shot back, her frustration bubbling over. “Every time I see that conman, I feel sick! Especially when he’s with other women, it makes my skin crawl! 

Rosalie frowned slightly, timidly asking, “Piper, do you have feelings for Robin?” 

“What?!” Piper’s eyes widened in shock. “You think I would like that conman?! Haha! If I ever did that, I would be the biggest fool alive. 

“Then why do you keep staring at him?” Rosalie shook her head in exasperation. “What kind of person Robin is has nothing to do with you. Besides, he hasn’t harmed you or scammed you.” 

…Piper was left dumbfounded and responded angrily. “How has he not hurt me! He’s always hanging around, trying to catch my attention! 

“I’m beautiful and charming, and I work for the Dunn Group. He’s always showing up in front of me, it’s obvious he wants me to notice him and fall for him! 

Hmph! He doesn’t even have the guts to pursue me directly. What a pathetic man!” 

Rosalie shook her head and chose not to pursue the conversation further. “Alright, what should we have for dinner tonight? I can cook.” 

“Pastal Piper slammed the door behind her in anger. 

“Rosalie, I need to talk to you about the rent. It’s due soon, and you need to contribute more this month. You’ll cover two–thirds, and I’ll cover one–third!” 

“Didn’t we agree to split everything evenly!” Rosalie asked, shocked. 

Piper chuckled coldly. “Things have changed. Since you didn’t receive the job offer, you’re currently unemployed. That’s why I suggested we divide the payment. 

“Now, you got this job through dubious means, and your salary is much higher than mine. You should definitely contribute more!” 

But 

Rosalie frowned. 

No buts! If you don’t want to, you can move out! But you must pay this month’s rent first!” 

With resignation, Rosalie replied. “Fine, Piper. I may need to move out next month. My mom needs a significant amount of money to cover her hospital bills 

Piper scrutinized Rosalie. “Do what you

As Rosalie entered the kitchen, her phone vibrated. 

It was a call from her brother. 

“Sis, the money you sent me isn’t enough for Mom’s hospital fees,” he said urgently. 

“If I can’t gather enough by the day after tomorrow, she won’t be able to continue her treatment.

“I’ve already borrowed a lot of online loans, and they’re overdue. They keep hounding me for repayments, 

and I can’t borrow any more.” 

Rosalie tried to comfort him, “Don’t worry, just take good care of Mom. I’ll figure out the money situation.” 

After hanging up, Rosalie furrowed her brows in deep thought. 

She recalled receiving some loan offers on her phone recently. 

Despite the high interest rates, it was a viable option during difficult times. 

She decided to finish dinner first and then reach out to those lending agencies to see what could be done. 

She was determined to get her mom treated, regardless of the circumstances.
