The Invincible Arthur Gardner novel Chapter 39

Arthur remained quietly seated in his chair, with Edna following suit, undeterred by the commotion of the people gathering around them.

"What on earth do you think you're doing? Don't you understand how things work here? You're nothing more than a fool who has delusions of grandeur, trying to occupy a seat that you are clearly not entitled to. How can someone who is not a part of the fan club possibly have access to the priciest and most sought-after seats at this concert?"

Robin glared at Arthur with a furious expression.

Arthur raised his head and looked towards Robin, standing with his back straight and suddenly appearing taller than Robin. His gaze was both intense and serene.

"Good day to you, Mr. Robin, the most distinguished individual of the fan club. As I am here at the direct request of Claudina, I must insist that you leave this place immediately. Should the need arise, I will not hesitate to remove you from the VIP area altogether!"

"What the heck!" Robin's face reddened with anger in response to Arthur's words. "You appear to be completely oblivious to the kind of person you are, displaying your self-absorbed antics in front of me and the entire fan-club. Tonight, I'm going to make sure you learn your lesson and feel ashamed in front of everyone."

Arthur fearlessly challenged the man, his voice steady and strong. "I double-dare you to try!"

"Hey, you!" Robin yelled firmly at Arthur, pointing an accusing finger in his direction. "It's time for you to leave. This event is too important to Claudina for it to be ruined by someone who doesn't even have the decency to respect the senior members of this fan-club."

The other VIP members all glared at Arthur in agreement.

"If you don't leave immediately, I'll make you regret it," the man continued, his voice full of rage.

Then, Robin softened his tone and looked at Edna. "She may stay here though, this lovely woman deserves to be here more than you do."

Arthur smiled gently and looked into Robin's eyes, his gaze tranquil and calming. "Come on," he encouraged. "Show me what you're capable of. You're the best one here, so I know you'll do your very best."

Robin shouted with a wrathful expression, exasperated by the situation, "What am I supposed to do with you, you fool?!"

Robin lunged at Arthur with a clenched fist, but Arthur easily caught it and with a sudden twist of his wrist, sent Robin crashing to the ground with a loud thud, making all of the onlookers direct their attention towards them.

All those present at the concert instantly rose to their feet, holding up their smartphones to capture the events unfolding in the VIP area. Robin, someone they knew who held a high rank in the Claudina Fan Club, had dropped to the ground in a seemingly unsuccessful attempt to assault an unfamiliar man who had recently become the center of attention due to his companion – a woman of stunning beauty.

"Wow, that man must be someone really important," said someone, his eyes wide with awe. "He was able to get the VIP seat, which is usually reserved for the most esteemed members of Claudina's fan club. I can't help but wonder who he could be - a prince from a foreign kingdom, or just a wealthy individual who values his privacy? Either way, it's hard to imagine he was able to get that seat without paying a hefty price!"
