Thirty minutes later…
Robin reached the signing event venue and his car stopped right on the red carpet. Immediately, all eyes were on the car, wondering who owned such a luxurious ride. Almost everyone there wanted to see who the leader of Julls Corp was and speculations were going around.
However, when Robin got out of the car, the guests frowned in confusion. They had never seen him before. He looked sophisticated and elegant but they couldn't associate his face with any big family in the city.
But then Robin didn't mind their gaze, he was escorted straight into the venue and ushered to the front side of the venue.
A large table was assigned to the officials of Julls Corp and also Carla Kia who would be signing a contract with them.
Robin wasn't fazed about seeing his ex-wife who betrayed him. To him, everything was just business and profits now so, he sat down, took a light snack, and started to eat before the event started officially.
On the other hand, at the entrance, the guests had gathered around Carla Kia who had just arrived.
They rushed to her, wanting to tap from her grace.
“Have you seen the chairman of Julls Corp?” They asked the one question they were all eager to know.
Carla stood there, liking the attention on her and she smiled proudly, “Of course. I had a little chat with him today. Don’t worry, I will introduce you all.”
She watched them grin and praise her. Her heart swelled in her chest, thanking Terry for putting her on such a high pedestal.
However, her date Terry was running late so, she decided to go sit. But as she approached the table, she spotted a familiar figure she never thought she would see.
His hair was sleeked perfectly and his face and jaw-line became accentuated. He was even more handsome than before but all these crumbled before her eyes when she recalled his cheating stunt.
“Robin?” She marched toward him with a fierce look. “What the hell are you doing here?”
Robin turned upon hearing her voice but then he gave her a little nod before turning around again.
“I am speaking to you!” His behavior irked her so much, that she yelled, drawing attention from the guests.
“I asked what the hell is a spineless man like you doing in a gathering of influential people?” She spat.
“Well…” Robin chuckled calmly. “If I am not here, the signing event won’t go on and your contract won't be signed. That’s all.”
“Haha…” Carla burst into a peal of mocking laughter. “Are you seriously saying that? A good for nothing like you? Are you trying to impersonate the chairman of Julls Corp?”
Hearing the chairman, some other guests quickly gathered around.
“Carla, are you saying that he is an impostor?” They asked.
“Of course. Because he is dressed in flashy clothes he probably borrowed, doesn't mean he is a big shot. He just wants to get into the high society!” She spat, her eyes spitting venom.
The other guests were already panicking, thinking Robin was there to harm them.
“Let’s get him out of here!”
“Security!”
They yelled, running around. Everyone wanted to cater to Carla, and so they took her word for it. However, Robin remained calm, shocking Carla.
“Are you done mobilizing your minions?” He sneered, pointing at the guests running around to get the security.
“You really have some balls, Robin. You failed to take credit for getting me the contract because I found out in time that Terry did it…”
“And now, you are here, trying to impersonate the chairman of Julls Corp. Are you stalking me?” Her eyes shone with pride and malice, feeling like she was a woman who was sought after by men.
“Do you want to get back together with me? You regret losing me, don’t you? And that is why you are trying so hard to prove that you are a real man here!” By this time, Carla was breathing heavily because of the spite she carried inside and the way she spewed out words.
Seeing her being so worked up, with her face all twisted up, Robin wondered how he was able to fall for her. The kind girl in his memory was meek, and kind, and had a beautiful presence but Carla…
“You have a lot of sick thoughts in your head, Carla. You just want to suit the sick narrative in your head. You claim Terry is the man you want. You cheated. Why don’t you go to him and leave me all alone!” Robin’s voice had a hint of warning that Carla couldn't deny.
“You…” She whispered, pointing a finger at him. “How dare you act all cocky? How dare you point accusing fingers at me when you cheated first!” She yelled, slamming her fists on the table.
The cutleries rattled and some fell off, startling them both.
“I cheated? What are you talking about?” Robin stood up to his feet, with a deep frown. Of all things he could tolerate, he couldn't tolerate a slander to his name.
“Oh, are you surprised I caught you?” She snickered, her angry self started to rummage through her back.
“Look at this!” She took out both jade rings, slamming them on the table angrily. “You gave Cora a ring, right? You gave her the second pair of this ring! You are the man she has been dreaming about!”
“You both cheated on me, under my nose! And yet you stand there, looking at me like I am the worst human on planet earth! You are a disgusting asshole, Robin!”

It Was Him
As Robin stepped out of the hotel, Mason was already waiting for him and he was ushered into the car. “I found Carla’s location. She has been cooped up at her office since the early hours of today. She left her mansion, unusually early and I think that is suspicious.” Mason explained. “Did you trace Cora’s whereabouts from the mansion?” Robin asked seriously. “Yes. But it seems Cora just vanished into thin air. The CCTV cameras in the estate that night were all down. It seemed like a pre-planned attack. But it’s so high level.” Just like he had thought, Carla couldn't implement such a kidnapping on this scale. But then, he didn't want to leave a stone unturned. He had to really confirm if she wasn't involved. They proceeded to leave, however, the minute he settled, his phone rang. It was Chairman Black. As soon as the call connected, the old man spoke up hurriedly, “It's almost time for the meeting, aren't you coming?” Robin flipped his wrist to check his time and indeed, it w
Redirection
“What?” Jane gasped, and she took a double-take at Robin’s back. She mirrored it with the disgust she felt from earlier and was finally making sense of the whole thing. But she didn't want to accept it! Would Robin be the boss of the Sky International Hotel? No way! He wasn't even part of the board. “Are you out of your mind, Ethan? What are you saying?” She yelled at her son but he was being held back again by the security. On the other hand, Diego couldn't take the ruckus and turmoil anymore. He rushed to the window and immediately caught Robin’s shoulder to make him face them.He forcefully pulled Robin, however, he didn't even move an inch. Robin had caught Diego’s hand, locked in with a tight grip.“You…” Diego gasped, as he finally saw Robin’s side profile. He tried to take his hand off his shoulder as if he was being burned but Robin’s grip was too strong. “Surprised to see me, Diego?” His sinister voice flowed through and for a moment, Diego shook in his pants. He had neve
Seducing Her Stepson
“Will you be needing anything at all?” Thorn asked, running around to cater to Robin. He couldn't afford to mess up again. Also, he knew the board meeting would be held in the designated building, later that day and he wondered why Robin had arrived so early. “Nothing. Thank you.” Robin smiled, calmly, enough to ease Thorn’s stress. In that moment, Thorn let out a deep breath of relief and wiped the imaginary sweat from his forehead. Thankfully, Robin was a calm and respectful man. Right now, Robin stood before the large windows in a dimly lit lounge that had a beautiful view of the hotel gardens and recreation centers scattered around the premises. He silently commended how the board members had grown the hotel into the massive force it was now. However, he needed to beat this. His assigned project must blow them off their feet. As he admired the work of art before him, the door was pushed open and two security officers stepped in while escorting Jane and Diego into the lounge.
True Power 2
“What do you mean he has to access the elevator? Are you trying to buy time until you can escape, huh?” the manager snarled angrily, while clicking his tongue in disdain. He hated scammers the most. He had gotten to, this position just by the way he fished out bad people. His works spoke for him and he was promoted. His direct boss trusted him with issues like this. “I am not trying to buy time. I didn't do anything wrong after all.” Robin shrugged. “All I want is for him to access the elevator and prove to us he is supposed to be here.”Ethan pursed his lips, realizing it wasn't a big deal. He had accessed the elevator that morning and he could do it again. However, the manager wasn't in tune with it at all, “You have no right to order a guest here–”“Don’t worry, I will do it.” Ethan stepped forward. “This is just to prove that this man here is a scammer. He has no right to be here and should be thrown out.”“I am a good person and I cannot stand for the wrong thing.” He puffed u

“Bah!” The staff member slammed his hands on his thighs, as if he were expecting Ethan to say that. “I knew it! Men like him who are not in tune with reality think they can pass off as rich!”“I guess he has seen just how much wealth can give and he wants to taste it.” Ethan joined in, however, his eyes flickered to Robin scornfully. He tilted his head to the side, silently anticipating what Robin was going to do next. “What would you like us to do to him? I will immediately inform the hotel’s manager.” The staff chimed in, waiting on Ethan’s order like he was god. All the while, Robin stood back, silently staring at Ethan and the staff as they discussed his appropriate punishment. The other staff members had dispersed to get the hotel manager. But Robin had no such patience to wait around. “What if I can access this elevator?” He asked. “No, you can’t!” The staff barked. “You measly cleaner, still trying to act like you are some big shot? Are you out of your mind?”“I bet you ca
A Cleaner In Eastbourne
Robin stared at the TV screen for long minutes, deeply regretting he had let her go last night. He was sure she had gone to Carla’s mansion after she stepped out of the Sky International Hotel. “Can you confirm her whereabouts? Use every single resource you can get! Find her!” He shot up to his feet and his swivel chair skidded backward. “Where are you going?” Mason asked hurriedly. “I need to confirm if the Davenson family has her myself.” He said seriously. From the reports he got from Mason that morning, Diego and Jane had not left the hotel since the event ended last night. They were probably too scared to go back to Eastbourne, after all, the news of their destruction which would be starting soon would be waiting for them. “I don’t think that is a wise decision.” Mason opposed. “The Davensons are in a bad place right and I don't think they would want to do something like this.”“But we never can tell.” Robin sneered and he took his suit jacket to put on. “Those people could
