Chapter 158 Tislis Café

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Cecilia personally drove Robin back to the Eastern District Development Corporation.

Melvin waited in front of the company hall’s entrance.

After witnessing Cecilia's respectful behavior in front of Robin, | was extremely shocked.

| became even more determined to join Robin.

“Mr. Bruce, | finally waited for you,” Melvin hurriedly approached.

That kind of appearance, just like meeting a long-lost relative, trembling with excitement and tears welling up in the eyes.

“Did you get drunk at lunch today?” Robin glanced at Melvin, “Are you so excited to see me? It makes me feel like I’m your own father.”

Melvin wiped away the tears from his eyes and said, “Mr. Bruce, | am willing to be your dog forever!” Robin raised an eyebrow and chuckled with interest, “What’s the matter, had an epiphany?”

Melvin followed Robin closely as they walked towards the hall. “Mr. Bruce, from now on, | will only take orders from you. Whatever you ask me to do, | will do it!”

Robin stopped in his tracks. “By doing this, are you not afraid that Nathen will chop you?”

Melvin gritted his teeth and said. “Mr. Bruce, Nathen that bastard, he was nothing but an animal!”

“Since he came back. | have been living a miserable life at World Real Estate!”

“| had long stopped wanting to be with him!”

“Even his father was so angry that he didn’t want to go back to the company anymore. Nathen’s mother is just a pervert!” Robin smiled indifferently, “Melvin, you waited all afternoon just to tell me this?”

“Mr. Bruce, this is just the beginning,” Melvin looked around and leaned in closer, whispering, “There’s something | need to tell you.”

“The vice presidents of the Huber Group, Reginald and Shawn, both joined Nathen today.” “They were plotting behind your back to stab you!” Robin nodded, “Oh, that’s indeed good news.”

“Not...” Melvin saw Robin's indifferent reaction to this news and anxiously said, “Mr. Bruce, aren't you going to prepare how to deal with them?”

“Deal with them?” Robin smirked coldly, “They are not even worth our attention.”

Melvin stood in front of the lobby for a while and caught up with Robin, saying, “Mr. Bruce, didn’t you say you were going to hire me as a dog?”

Robin was speechless. “Accept you? What would | do with a wretch like you, a disgrace to your family?” 9.78%

Melvin was taken aback. “Mr. Bruce, | could do anything for you!”

Robin shook his head and said, “Well, since it's like this, fine, you can be a dog.

Melvin was extremely grateful and said, “Thank you so much for rescuing the dog. Mr. Bruce! Sir, Nathen, Reginald, and others were setting a trap for the Huber Group behind the scenes. Aren’t you planning to deal with them?”

Robin sneered, “If people like Nathen and Reginald could easily defeat Harold, the Huber family would have been finished long ago.”

“Alright, let's not bring up this matter again. Now, there is something | need you to do.”

Upon hearing Robin’s words, Melvin exclaimed excitedly, “Mr. Bruce, whatever you command, | will do my utmost to fulfill it!” “Did the Thompson Group know?”

“| know, | know,” Melvin nodded. “What's wrong, Mr. Bruce?”

“Did someone from the Thompson family offend Mr. without thinking? | will immediately send my subordinates to teach them a lesson and make the members of the Thompson family beg for mercy in no time!”

Robin tapped Melvin’s head and said, “Put away those brainless things of yours!” “What | wanted you to do was to collect information about several shareholders of the Thompson Group.”

“Within a week, Conrad and Adrienne, along with their relatives from the Baldwin family, were kicked out of the Thompson family!”

Melvin was instantly stunned, “This... “Can't do it?” Robin said indifferently. “Then forget it.

Melvin hurriedly said, “Mr. Bruce, | can handle the task of collecting the Thompson family shareholders’ information in just one day.”

“Just... just getting the Conrad couple out of the Thompson Group, maybe, maybe it would take some time...” Robin nodded, “Alright, you go ahead and gather their information, and then I'll tell you what to do.”

“Yes, Mr. Bruce, | will go right away!” Melvin exclaimed excitedly as he received Robin’s instructions, and immediately left the Eastern District Development Corporation.

Robin had just pressed the elevator button when a gust of fragrance hit him.

“Haha, it’s a small world! We meet again!”

Crystal appeared before him like a ghost.

On that exquisite face, a brilliant smile bloomed.

Robin chuckled. “It seems like you were everywhere.”

Crystal held onto Robin’s arm and said, “You were always in my sight.”

“| can’t believe it! Gone for a while and you’ve changed your style. becoming a female poet?” Robin shook his head. “Is life just about the mundane present, or is there also poetry and distant places?” Crystal said earnestly.

“If living without a bit of poetry, it would be so meaningless!”

“Alright, you go ahead and enjoy your poetry.” Robin let go of Crystal’s hand. “I have to go upstairs.”

“Don't go! | have been waiting for you since noon, and | haven’t had lunch yet,” Crystal stood in front of Robin. “Wait for me, wait for me to do what?” Robin furrowed his brow.

“Please have a meal, you have helped me so much. Having a meal is a small favor | can do to repay you,” Crystal said, holding onto Robin again and smiling.

“A meal and you think you've repaid me?” Robin glanced at Crystal.

“What do you suggest then? | can only do so much,” Crystal said, lowering her eyebrows and thinking for a moment. A pair of elf-like clear eyes suddenly looked affectionately at Robin, “How about this, I’ll repay your favor in a different way.” Robin shivered as he looked into the mischievous gleam in Crystal's

eyes.

At this moment, standing in front of oneself, it seemed not to be at beautiful woman, but a cunning little fox.

“What way?” Robin asked cautiously.

Crystal held onto Robin tightly.

Standing on tiptoe, leaning close to his ear, exhaling warm breath, “Can | just pretend to be your girlfriend for a while?” “Go away!” Robin sighed with relief, her heart still racing.

“Hahaha... Crystal laughed, “You are actually nervous...”

Robin shook his head and said. “Go away!”

“Judging by the way you were seared, are you afraid that | would cat you?” Crystal finally put down her heels and smiled, “Come on, let me treat veu to a nice place for afternoon tea.”

“the Eastern Business District opened a new trendy restaurant.”

“Although it was not the most high-end, in Hallcester, it was the most trendy, poetic, and charming.”

Robin looked at Crystal’s serious expression and it seemed that she really liked the style of this restaurant. When it comes to this restaurant, Crystal gets excited.

“Besides these, | preferred the ambiance of this restaurant.”

“This restaurant was located by Hallcester Lake.”

“Sitting by the window in a private room of the restaurant, | watched the scenery outside.”

While savoring afternoon tea, | enjoyed the picturesque scenery of the lake, including the spring water, ripples, gentle breeze, and the setting

sun. “What a poetic and picturesque scene it was.

Robin shrugged. “Are you the marketing manager of this casual restaurant? You speak so highly of it. I’m actually a little tempted.”

Crystal angrily glanced at Robin and said, “What are you thinking? You have no emotional intelligence at all.” “When this restaurant first opened, | only found out about it through word of mouth.” “Later, | went in to experience it myself and was instantly captivated by the scenery and style there.”

“A cup of clear tea, a lake of spring water, a touch of slanting sun, a wisp of gentle breeze, free from attachments, and indifferent to the world.”

“Entering the private room of the restaurant, it felt like stepping into a peach garden, free from worldly constraints and earthly troubles.”

“Pushing open the door, the outside was a bustling and prosperous. world.”

Sitting there, keeping a distance from this world, it felt so comfortable!

“| really enjoyed that feeling.”

Robin looked at Crystal and said with a smile, “Two days apart and you've become a true poet?”

“Alright, based on your sales pitch, | will go with you to Shangri-La

once.”

“We won't be disappointed, for sure!” Crystal exclaimed excitedly ast she walked out of the hall with Robin.

Twenty minutes later, they drove to Tislis Café next to Hallcester Lake.

Although it was only three o’clock in the afternoon..

However, in front of Tislis Café, numerous fashionable and luxurious cars had already parked..

From the styles of these luxury cars, it is obvious that the majority of people who come here to consume are young. Some young men and women from the upper class society used to

enjoy this leisurely and lazy afternoon tea time.

Crystal brought Robin to the reserved private room on the second floor.

This private room was the best one in the entire café.

Not only spacious, but also sitting in front of the window in the private room, one can see all the scenery of Hallcester Lake, Its price is also the most expensive, with a private room fee of 10,000 dollars per hour.

Crystal booked the whole day.

Entered the private room.

The sound of the piano was melodious, and the fragrance of tea filled the air.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Sitting by the window, a gentle breeze blew.

The lazy afternoon sun was awakened by a gentle breeze, which ruffled the cool spring water in the lake. The several ducks playing in the water on the lake were startled and scattered in all directions.

This scene indeed gave people a feeling of being away from the world.

Crystal looked at Robin excitedly and said, “How do you feel? | didn’t lie to you, did 1?”

Robin nodded and said. “Not bad.”

Crystal exclaimed happily, “If you stay here for an afternoon, you won't want to leave this place anymore.” In a short while, the waiter in the restaurant placed various pastries on

the table

Most of these pastries were of Hashville State flavor.

Robin picked up a piece of sponge cake and put it in his mouth.

In an instant, the glutinous rice became fragrant and penetrated into the heart and soul.

Acup of clear tea was tasted.

Bitter and sweet, from life to death, | am intoxicated by the past and present of this cup of clear tea.

Under the warm sunshine and gentle breeze, Crystal held her chin with both hands, gazing at Robin without moving, her eyes filled with warm smiles...

This was the happiest time of her life in the past 20 years.

After my mother and my brother and sister-in-law left one after another, her world became dim.

Until she met Robin, Crystal suddenly realized that everything had started to become warm and bright. She didn’t ask for any results, she just wanted to quietly stay by this man’s side.

As soon as she saw him, heard him, or thought of him, she would be inexplicably happy...

“Bang!” The door of the private room was rudely pushed open.

Ayoung and fashionable woman appeared at the door.

There were two tall bodyguards and a woman in her thirties following

Crystal was very displeased. “What’s wrong with you guys? Why did you barge in without knocking*?”

The woman in her thirties walked forward and said coldly. “Ms. Martinez has taken a liking to this private room. You all need to leave immediately. How much? Name your price, and | will transfer the money to you right away!”
