slips as he
She was the type of woman who loved to overthink everything, weaving elaborate stories in her mind.
“Think whatever you want; just enjoy your own little world,” he thought, dismissing her silently. Unable to ignore her frustration, Piper became increasingly agitated. “Hey, I’m talking to you!” she snapped.
“Did you witness three guys bullying me at Four Seas Entertainment World yesterday afternoon?”
Robin chuckled coldly and answered. “Of course I saw it. It’s hard to miss something that close. What’s your point?”
“Since you saw me getting picked on, why didn’t you risk your life to save me?” Piper shot back, her voice icy.
Robin shrugged nonchalantly. “Why should I?”
Piper’s teeth clenched in anger, and he accused, “You’re such a coward! A useless good–for–nothing!”
Robin only laughed.
“What I am doesn’t matter. What matters is that a woman like you, who isn’t even second–rate in looks, adoesn’t deserve anyone risking their life for her in a situation like that. That would be insane.”
“You! Couldn’t be reasoned with!” Piper hissed, her eyes blazing with disdain.
“If you can’t handle it, don’t go to places like that,” Robin replied with a dismissive tone.
He pointed toward Rosalie and said, “But if she were in that situation, I would definitely step in.”
At that moment, the elevator doors opened on the 20th floor. Robin gestured to Rosalie. “Excuse me, I need to get through.”
“You! You hypocrite! Piper shouted and stop her foot in frustration as she dragged Rosalie out of the elevator and positioned herself in front of Robin.
“You clearly like me and are trying every trick in the book to get my attention, yet playing hard to get! It’s disgusting!”
“Oh please! You’re just delusional!” Robin shook his head, uninterested in further banter
“Piper, can you stop this?” Rosalie interjected. Her friend’s behavior left her speechless.
She turned to Robin with an apologetic smile and said, “Robin, I’m really sorry about this.”
“It’s fine,” Robin shrugged. “I won’t stoop to arguing with a lunatic. Don’t lose hope, you’ll secure the job.
With that, he walked toward the executive conference room of Dunn Group.
“Stop right there! Piper called out after him. That’s the senior executive meeting room! What makes you think you can just waltz in there?”
Ignoring her completely, Robin continued on his way.
Piper rushed ahead of him, gesturing accusingly. “You think just because you’re a security guard here, can enter the senior executive area at will? Dunn Group has strict rules to protect its business secrets.
Robin pushed past her, entering the room without another word.

Fuming, Piper glared at Robin’s retreating figure. Just as she contemplated stopping him, Amber stepped out of the conference room and blocked her path.
“Excuse me, miss, but please keep your voice down! You’re not a senior executive and can’t enter this area,” she said firmly.
Piper’s gaze shifted to Amber’s name tag, which read President Assistant, Amber Jenning
Her demeanor changed instantly as she replied, “Hello, Ms. Jenning. I’m Piper Dawson, here for an interview,”
Amber nodded and said. “The HR department is on the 15th floor. You need to go there for your interview.”
“Ms. Jenning, I’m trying to stop him!” Piper pointed at Robin’s back and explained. “He’s just a lowly security guard, barging in here without à care.”
Amber raised an eyebrow and said, “Did you just say he’s a security guard? Who told you that?” “Connor, the assistant team leader from the sales department, said so, Piper replied confidently. “Oh. I see. The group is about to hold a senior executive meeting, and we need all non–executive personnel to leave the 20th floor immediately!” Amber gave a clear instruction, leaving no room for disagreement.
“But, Ms. Jenning, he’s just a- Piper began to protest again.
Amber interrupted her, coldly stating, “If you don’t leave. I will have security escort you out!”
With that, she picked up her radio. “Security, please dispatch two securities to the 20th floor to ensure the senior executive meeting goes smoothly.”
Piper continued to argue, but Rosalie pulled her toward the elevator.
Once inside, Piper shook off Rosalie’s grip, her anger flaring. “Why did you pull me away?
“I need to tell Ms. Jenning that Robin, that jerk, is sneaking into the executive meeting! Piper exclaimed.
Rosalie shook her head and said, “Piper, Robin hasn’t done anything to you. Why are you always after him?”
“What did you mean he didn’t do anything to me? Piper exploded.
