Chapter 55
As the door crashed into the table, it trembled violently from the impact, dishes clattering and food spilling everywhere—some of it nearly landing on Robin. “Silas Langford! You said if I had the guts, I should come find you. Well, here I am!” Sebastian’s voice boomed as he strode into the room, flanked by Sarah and Marcus.Trailing closely behind them were two towering men, over 6 foot tall and built like tanks, their presence alone radiating a deadly pressure. From the energy they emitted, it was obvious—they were martial artists. One of them was likely the one who had sent the door flying.The entire hall froze in shock.The orchestra ceased.The dancers froze mid-motion.All eyes turned to the unexpected intruders, filled with disbelief.This was the Empyrean Hall—how could they just barge in like this?Did they not fear Silas? Or worse, Master Ramsey?Meanwhile, Sarah and Marcus, upon entering, froze in place. Their eyes darted about in awe. They’d never imagined a place like

Meanwhile, Silas turned back to Robin. “This way, Master Ramsey,” he said, gesturing with a slight bow.Robin didn’t respond, merely following him in silence. To his surprise, Silas didn’t lead him through the main entrance but rather took a discreet route through a back door and down a hidden corridor. Robin couldn’t help but raise a brow in quiet approval. Even after everything, Silas remained composed and tactful. He hadn’t allowed his emotions to cloud his judgment, remembering his identity was supposed to be kept as a close guarded secret.Robin’s guarded demeanor loosened slightly. In that moment, unknowing to Silas, he earned a sliver of Robin's respect.As they walked, Silas retrieved his phone and issued a flurry of swift commands.No matter what, The Empyrean Hall hadn't been used since its creation, so some things needed to be put in place. Additionally, he needed to arrange certain things to suit Robin alone. He just wanted everything to be perfect for Master Ramsey!A s

Silas was momentarily stunned to learn that they were friends with Sebastian Aldridge.But that was it.He chuckled darkly and sneered, “I couldn’t care less if you’re friends with Sebastian Aldridge or not. Even if you were chummy with the governor himself, it wouldn’t change a thing. You disrespected Master Ramsey, and for that, you can only get lost! And if Sebastian has a problem with it, then he can get lost too!”On a normal day, he wouldn't even fear Sebastian because he had Katherine to back him up, let alone now that Robin, the young master, was by his side.Who was a mere heir of the Aldridges compared to him?His words struck Marcus and Sarah like a slap in the face. Sarah swayed, nearly collapsing, and would have if Marcus hadn’t caught her in time.Marcus’s expression darkened as he stared Silas down. “It’s easy to talk tough, Mr. Langford. But are you truly prepared to back up your words with action?”Silas snorted with scorn. “Whether I can or not is none of your busine
Chapter 52
The doorman was dumbstruck by Robin’s words. Indeed, he had asked him if he was sure he wanted to send him away, if he was certain he wouldn't regret his actions, and he had arrogantly dismissed him, telling him to get lost. A wave of regret crushed over him, tears of dispair streaming down his face like a fountain. If only he could turn back time. If only! Unfortunately, wishes weren't horses and life didn’t deal in “ifs.” “Guards! Get these wastrels out of my sight!” Silas barked. At his command, five guards rushed forward, swiftly seized the doorman and the others, and dragged them away. The doorman and the guards kept begging, but Silas didn’t spare them a glance. Once the noise faded, he turned to Robin, his gaze lowered. "Master Ramsey, did I handle things to your satisfaction?” Robin gave a cold, dismissive nod. “You did alright. But if anything like this happens again, you’ll be out. No third chance!" Silas stiffened and nodded quickly. “Understood, Master Ramsey
Chapter 51
It felt like a bomb had gone off in the hearts of Marcus, Sarah, the doorman, and the guards, leaving them stunned and rooted to the spot. There was no way—absolutely no way—that Silas Langford had come running because of Robin. That couldn’t be possible. Robin was nothing but a washed-up nobody from the countryside. A stray dog, at best. Silas Langford, on the other hand, was the esteemed manager of Shangri-La, a man of status and influence. They couldn’t accept it. Right in front of their very eyes, Silas came to a skidding stop at the grand entrance, panting heavily as though he’d just sprinted the entire building. His eyes darted around the group. "Who is Robin Ramsey?" BOOM! This question was like another bomb. Everyone froze in sheer disbelief. He knew Robin? He really came running because of the pauper? What the hell was going on? Was the world suddenly fantastical? "I am," Robin said coolly. At Robin's words, Silas immediately rushed over to him and, without cari

Robin didn’t so much as glance her way. Instead, he pulled out his phone and sent a text to Katherine, asking for the manager’s number. "Texting your sugar mama, huh?" Marcus cackled. “I knew it. You’re completely useless without her. A shameless toy boy. Unfortunately, she can't help you this time! Hahaha." He couldn't hide how smug he felt. He grinned wide, full of confidence, as if he’d just won something. Hah! Katherine had always been helping Robin, now, this one time, she wouldn't be able to. He just couldn't wait to see the disappointment on Robin's face when he realized that and how the doorman would kick him out. The thought alone was so thrilling! Looking at Marcus and his brimming confidence, Robin gave a small, mocking smile but didn’t speak. Marcus's grin faltered. “And what the hell’s so funny?” he snapped angrily. Still saying nothing, Robin gave another quiet chuckle and kept his eyes on his phone. Arguing with clowns wasn’t worth the effort. CHIME! Robi
