The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 1130

The moment those words left her mouth, the entire Nine Stars Group tech exhibition hall fell into a suffocating silence.

No one doubted Shania's statement.

It wasn't just the president and the cabinet—nearly all the nation's top power was controlled by financial conglomerates like Nine Stars Group.

If Nine Stars Group's upper management wanted to mobilize the full force of the national apparatus against someone who challenged them, all it took was a single command.

Conall let out a dry laugh, realizing there was no point in trying to reason with the arrogant and untouchable Shania.

Most people believed that true power lay in a country's military and government institutions. What they failed to understand was that those forces were nothing more than an unspoken deterrent.

When tested, that deterrent could become ineffective, particularly against individuals like Robin who operate beyond the boundaries of conventional power.

A scoffing laugh shattered the silence in the exhibition hall.

"Ms. Shania, even if Robin is as formidable as the rumors claim, there's no need to involve national forces. Martial Arts alone would be enough to wipe that arrogant fool off the map!" Bran sneered.

"If Robin dares to show up at Nine Stars Group looking for trouble, I'll take him on myself and end him with a single punch!

"What's more, my master, Mr. Keegan, is about to end his seclusion.

"Even if I fail to defeat Robin, once Mr. Keegan steps in, he'll crush him effortlessly!"

Hearing this, Conall could already see Bran's impending doom.

At that moment, Thorne stepped into Nine Stars Group's tech exhibition center.

He had barely entered the hall when he overheard Bran's wild boasts.

Thorne merely chuckled without commenting.

Bran was nothing but a flashy, second-rate fighter who rode on Dubh's reputation, parading his arrogance around the world.

If he had ever witnessed Robin's earth-shattering power, he would've collapsed in terror.

Even Dubh himself might not be a match for Robin.

For someone at Bran's level to claim he could defeat Robin with a single punch—this was the epitome of ignorance and arrogance.

Just as Bran continued boasting to Shania, Robin, Daphne, and Rita stepped into the exhibition hall.

Spotting Shania standing proudly in the crowd like a queen, Robin let out a cold chuckle and walked toward her.

"You owe me money, yet you still dare to act all high and mighty in public?" Robin sneered. "Are all of Nine Stars Group and the Coyles as shameless as you?

"The newly appointed CEO of Nine Stars Group is a liar, treating dishonesty like some kind of virtue. With this kind of leadership, Nine Stars Group might as well cease to exist."

The entire hall fell into stunned silence.

Everyone turned to look at Robin, their expressions a mix of shock and confusion.

Who on earth would dare to humiliate Shania like this? Was this man insane?

Two martial artists attending the event immediately stepped forward, blocking Robin's path with aggressive stances. "How dare you insult Ms. Coyle in public!"

Before they could make a move, Daphne and Rita struck in unison—each landing a single palm strike that sent the two men flying.

The crowd instinctively staggered back several meters.

The two warriors weren't the strongest in attendance, but they were still top-tier fighters—yet they had been taken down by two women in an instant.

Realizing the situation wasn't as simple as it seemed, the onlookers became wary.

After a brief hesitation, a dozen Nine Stars Group security personnel rushed toward Robin and his companions.

Before they could close in, the Coyles' head steward, Maurice, hurriedly intervened. "Hold it! Step back! Ms. Shania hasn't spoken yet!"

Then, he quickly approached Shania and whispered, "Ms. Shania, should we consult Mr. Coyle before taking any action?

"My advice is not to provoke this man so recklessly. After all, back on Qacalisle Island, he was the one who saved Mr. Coyle's life.

Shania hesitated, her confidence wavering slightly.

With newfound confidence, Shania turned to Robin, her eyes cold and unwavering. "Mr. Ramsey, I barely even remember what happened on Qacalisle Island.

"And now, you suddenly demand Nine Stars Group to pay you one hundred billion dollars. Do you have a contract to support your claim?

"If you do, present it now, and we'll verify its authenticity. If everything checks out, we'll make the payment immediately."

Maurice and Conall exchanged bitter smiles. This was a blatant challenge to Robin.

At that moment, they could almost see the bloodthirsty blade of Drakebane, poised ominously above Shania's head.

Trying to deceive Robin was nothing short of a death wish.

What baffled them, however, was how Shania could be so clueless. Did she have no idea who Robin was?

But Neasan and Kendrick should know.

If they were aware that Robin was untouchable, why were they willingly walking into their demise?

Maurice was utterly confused and whispered, "Mr. Donohuei, I urge you to reconsider this carefully."

Neasan let out a low scoff. "Mr. Coyle's instructions are clear—Ms. Shania has full authority over the Nine Stars Group. This matter is hers to handle.

"You're just a steward. There's no need for you to meddle in Ms. Shania's affairs!"

Left with no choice, Maurice could only shake his head and step aside.

Robin glanced indifferently at Shania, who stood there, brimming with arrogance. "Now you want to talk about contracts?" His tone was calm but laced with ridicule.

"When your Grandpa was on the brink of death, did you care about legal agreements then?

"Hah ... A scoundrel always has an excuse.

"But let me tell you something—anyone who's ever tried to pull this kind of stunt with me ended up as a corpse!

"You want to act like a cheat?" Robin's voice grew colder. "Fine. Then I'll handle this another way."
