"What? Robin took down the Landers, the fifth-strongest family in Brookhaven, and bankrupted the Hamiltons of Harmonfield?"
"Justst night, 50panies that partnered with the Dunns in Eastvale, all spurred on by Liam, turned against them at the Wrights'' grand feast."
"But the Dunns had help-a powerful ally and the Phoenix Vanguard at their side. They squashed the Hamiltons'' scheme, securing their ce as the top family in Harmonfield." "And from the way Ms. Silva speaks... could it be that Robin is this mystery backer?"
The crowd of reporters perked up, eyes glinting with newfound excitement.
At that moment, Zachary and Alice''s engagement seemed small, like a side tale in the shadow of something far greater.
Robin was the story now.
It didn''t take long before news of the Millers'' engagement took over every tform, with new twists spiraling by the second:
"The man once promised to Ms. Miller crashes her engagement to shake up her world."
"The unknown force behind the fall of the Landers and the ruin of the Hamiltons makes an appearance at Vi One!"
Before long, footage of Alice, Hank, and the Miller family mocking Robin outside the vi was streaming online, stirring a storm of reactions: "A nobody trying to w his way into the Millers'' life? That''s bold!"
"Why can''t he make his own way instead of chasing after a wealthy family?"
"He''s the worst kind, looking for someone else to carry him. Some people just don''t want to work for their
own sess."
"Plenty of folks like him around. They''d rathertch onto the rich than build their own legacy.
"Though, I heard this Robin might be dating the Dunn family''s heiress.
"Rumor has it he''s got some powerful connections, maybe more than we know.
"Sure, I''ll believe it when I see it."
"If Robin''s some great, hidden power, why waste time crashing Ms. Miller''s engagement?
"And what''s with this obsession? If he''s so mighty, why follow her around like a lost pup?
"Are you sure it''s him? Look at the man in the video. That''s not someone who''s here for trouble. "Check his expression. He''s barely interested.

"Or maybe you don''t see it right. Sure, the man looks sharp. But did you notice his ride?

"In Dawnspire Heights, the streets are filled with cars worth more money than we''ll ever see. And yet, herees Robin in a humble, worn-out vehicle, far from what you''d expect of a big shot. "Meanwhile, Ms. Miller has imed the grand Vi One for her engagement feast. That''s a first in Harmonfield. It''ll lift the Millers higher than they''ve ever flown.
"That alone proves Robin isn''t the man the rumors im.
"And besides, could someone wielding that kind of power be this young? Never heard of such a tale."
By now, the whispers about Robin, Alice, and Vi One spread like wildfire across thend, finding eager ears in every room.
Meanwhile, in her chamber at Vista Lake Vi, Shirley rosete, savoring the breakfast Robin had left her.
Her trance was broken by the chime of her phone as Amber''s voice echoed in her ear.
"Ms. Dunn, have you heard the news?"
Shirley took another bite of her doughnut, her voice calm. "I tend to avoid it. What''s happened?"
"You might care about this one. The Millers are stirring up trouble for Mr. Ramsey again. It''s be the talk of the nation!" Shirley''s brow furrowed as she set her food aside, her fingers tracing the edges of the device as she opened TikTok.
Her gaze turned icy as she watched the clips, read the spreading gossip.
Robin... What led him to that gathering?
The Millers meant nothing, less than nothing to him-
Alice was nothing. She was a shadow, a speck in the great scheme of things.
Who do they think they are, insulting my family''s honored guest?
Robin is mine. The man I, Shirley, had chosen.
No one would dishonor him, not the Millers, not anyone.
Shirley picked up her phone, her fingers trembling with rage. She called Drake immediately and told him about the event at Vi One.
Drake''s voice was thick with anger. "Carlos, gather every bodyguard we have. We''re going to Vi One. The Millers will pay for this, for what they''ve done to Mr. Ramsey. "Just one word from Mr. Ramsey, and I''ll wipe the Millers and the Gills off the map."
Within moments, the sound of heavy engines filled the air as the Dunn family''s most powerful

bodyguards sped toward Vi One.
Shirley barely finished her breakfast.
She jumped to her feet, grabbed her keys, and raced toward Dawnspire Heights Estates.
Meanwhile, in Area Two of the same estate, Daphney back in her bed, lost in thought.
She remembered the first time she had met Robin. The way he looked, the way he made her feel.
Her face softened, a faint blush creeping up her checks.
"Ms. West, there''s troubleing for Mr. Ramsey," Rita said, walking into the room.
Daphne''s eyes snapped open. She shot up, her heart already racing. "What''s going on?"

Rita held out her phone, showing her the news-the Millers'' engagement, the scenes from Vi One, the rumors swirling around Robin. Daphne''s lips curled into a dark smile.
"Mr. Ramsey has been patient-too patient. But this ends now. The Millers have no idea who they''re messing with.
"He saved my life. I won''t let that vile woman, humiliate him.
"Today, I''ll make them regret it.
"Rita, get Rowan. We''re going to Vi One."
At the gates of Vi One, Alice and her family stood firm, blocking the entrance.
"Robin, you''re wasting your time. Today''s my daughter''s engagement. If you don''t leave, the Millers will break your legs."
Julie''s finger jabbed toward Robin, her eyes cold like ice. "You won''t make a mess here," she warned.
a look full of contempt, barely hiding her disgust. "Know your ce. If you don''t, you''ll Hannah shot him only embarrass yourself.
"The Millers are above people like you. The Dunns might have handed you some title, but it means nothing.
"Get out now. This isn''t where you belong. Thest thing you want is to be the joke of the night."
