“Get lost!” Conway kicked Barry away. Then Conway pointed to the confused subordinates behind him. “Tie him up and take him back for punishment!” Two disciples of Demon’s Lair took Barry away from Purpeak Club. A faint smile appeared on Conway’s cold face. “Ms. Huber, are you satisfied with it?” Karina was shocked. The situation was beyond her expectations. Since Conway made a concession, she didn’t want to strain their relationship further. Karina nodded slightly and said coldly, “Mr. Lambert, he’s your subordinate, and it’s up to you.” “Thank you, Ms. Huber, for your forgiveness.” Conway bowed slightly, feeling relieved. If Robin was unhappy and Conway had to kill Barry, Conway would do it on the spot today. “Ms. Huber, I have many subordinates, so the good and bad are intermingled. “I have been lax in disciplining them. I didn’t expect to offend you. Ms. Huber, I hope you and your friend will forgive me.” Karina nodded coldly. “Mr. Lambert, let’s leave it at that. Don’t bring it up again.” Conway secretly breathed a sigh of relief. “Ms. Huber, we came to Purpeak Club today to discuss investment projects in the Eastern Business District. “Before coming here, I noticed that there have been conflicts between the plots run by Demon’s Lair in Eastern Business District and the projects invested by Ms. Huber. “I wasn’t aware of this. My subordinates are lack of understanding of the rules. I apologize for that. “So, I promise you that we will accept all of the projects proposed by the Huber Group and continue the agreed project type. “For the projects that have already started, we will immediately stop them and rectify them until you are satisfied!” Karina was slightly startled. In the past six months, the Huber Group and Demon’s Lair had negotiated the type of investment projects on multiple occasions, but no agreement had been reached. What happened to Conway? He even requested an immediate suspension of work to rectify the projects. “Ms. Huber, today my people offended you and your friend. To express my sincere apologies, I’ll give you the southern part of the Eastern Business District I just take charge of without any cost.” Karina was even more shocked upon hearing it. That project was worth 160 million dollars. It was said that Conway had to pay a great price to take it away from World Real Estate. But Conway gave it to the Huber Group for free as compensation for Barry’s matter. This
seemed a bit too expensive. Karina didn’t think the Huber Group mattered so much in front of Conway. Could it be that Conway had other motives towards the Huber Group? “Mr. Lambert, the investment projects in the Eastern Business District will be rectified according to the original plan. I accept that. “You said you would offer the project in the southern part to the Huber Group for free. This is too extravagant. Just forget it!” Conway explained hurriedly, “Ms. Huber, I am not joking! Don’t worry. I promise that it will be free, and I mean it. There are no conditions! “In the afternoon’s negotiation meeting, I will have them prepare two copies of the contract and directly hand them to you in written form. I hope you can accept them!” Karina was still hesitating. Conway didn’t wait for her answer and continued, “Ms. Huber, it’s settled. Thank you for accepting my sincerity. “I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I need to take my leave first. Let’s talk again this afternoon.” After saying that, Conway hurriedly left with his subordinates. They walked towards other areas in Purpeak Club. He seemed to be in a hurry. He was afraid that if he delayed any longer, someone would kill him. What Karina didn’t know was that Conway was avoiding Robin. Conway dealt with Barry and didn’t provoke Robin any further. So, he wanted to leave quickly. If he made any wrong move and offended Robin, that would be troublesome. Karina’s beautiful eyes flickered. Watching Conway’s distressed receding figure, she felt puzzled. What had happened to Conway, the Underground Demon King from Hallcester? He came with such a fierce momentum. It seemed that he was determined to kill Robin and suppress the Huber Group. What surprised Karina even more was that Conway beat up his own subordinates. Moreover, Conway proposed to immediately stop work and rectify the improper project in the Eastern Business District! Besides, he even gave the project in the southern part for free as compensation! Had Conway ever been so polite and trustful in his actions in Hallcester? “Let’s go. Stop thinking about it. Just take what he gives you! What’s the big deal?” Robin took the coat handed to him by Karsyn and glanced at Karina who was still in shock. “I had a tough morning and helped you win 48 million dollars. Ms. Huber, aren’t you going to treat me for a drink?” Karina smiled lightly, “Alright. I’ll treat you to Purpeak Club. “However, I don’t want those 48 million dollars. You earned it. Give me your bank account number, and I’ll have Karsyn transfer it to you.” Robin thought for a moment and didn’t hesitate. He directly gave his account number to Karsyn. While passing by Jacob and Miranda, Robin shrugged his shoulders
and said, “Mr. Walsh, if you want to gamble next time, just come to me. I find making money like this interesting.” After that, Robin walked towards the Purpeak Bar with Karina. Jacob gritted his teeth in anger. “Wait, I will let you know what happens when one offends me!” Miranda coldly snorted and looked at Robin’s back disdainfully. “Hmph! How disgusting! “You are just a man who lives off others. Don’t be cocky. If it weren’t for Ms. Huber today, you would have died!” Crystal smiled, “Miranda, have you ever thought that Mr. Lambert did this because he’s afraid of Robin? “If that’s the case, will you regret breaking off the engagement with him?” “Ha… Crystal, you are thinking too highly of Robin,” Miranda mocked. “He is just a loser relying on the prestige of the Huber family. How could Mr. Lambert be afraid of him? “Even so, I will never regret breaking off the engagement! Robin is just a brute!” Just as they were talking, Livia walked over. Miranda hurriedly greeted, “Ms. Colon, hello. I am…” Livia coldly glanced at Miranda and ignored her before rushing towards Robin. “Mr. Bruce, please wait. Ms. Decker wants to see you!” Robin was at a loss. “I don’t know Ms. Decker, so I won’t go!” Livia was startled, and a touch of anger flashed in her eyes. During so many years with Cecilia, Livia had never seen any man dare to refuse Cecilia’s invitation. Of course, no man had ever deserved such an honor, except for Robin. Miranda was also extremely shocked. Then, she secretly sneered. Miranda thought, “Robin, it’s true that you’re just a brute! “How dignified Cecilia is! “Her maid personally came to invite you, but you have such an attitude. Humph! You’re beyond help!” “Robin, what do you mean? Ms. Colon asked you to see Ms. Decker. You should feel flattered and know your place! “Apologize to Ms. Colon right away!” Robin pouted and looked strangely at Miranda. “What does it have to do with you? “Besides, whether Ms. Decker invites me or not, it is none of my business. “Don’t worry about things that don’t concern you!” Miranda snapped, “Robin, you’re unreasonable! How could you say such disrespectful words? kneel down and apologize to Ms. Colon right away!” Karina’s face showed a hint of displeasure. Just as she was about to speak, Livia slapped Miranda across the face. “I am talking to Mr. Bruce, but you keep stirring up trouble. Do you want to die?” Miranda covered her cheek in shock. “Ms. Colon, I mean Robin doesn’t know his place…” “Mr. Bruce is Ms. Decker’s guest, but you humiliated him.” Livia looked coldly at Miranda, her words revealing murderous intent. Cecilia was a man of importance. Humiliating her guest was the same as slapping Cecilia in the face. Damn it! Did Miranda want to
die? Miranda hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry, Ms. Colon. I didn’t mean that…” “Get lost!” Without waiting for her to finish, Livia coldly reprimanded. Miranda had no choice but to hastily leave. As she passed by Robin, she glared at him. But Crystal cast Robin a flirtatious look. Robin’s heart skipped a beat. What did Crystal want? Livia took a step forward and respectfully said, “Mr. Bruce, Ms. Decker sincerely invites you. Please accept it.”
