The man wanted to respond but did not know what to say.

The truth was that he was just boasting, but he did not expect Robert to be so arrogant.

"Haha."Yahaira chuckled and changed the topic."Mr. Zabinski is really wealthy. But we don't dareto make money off your 20 million dollars. Kendrick only wants to get engaged with the woman he likes, yet you cause him to be held for one night. If I tried to make off with your 20 million dollars, I am afraid I won't be able to leave Yrinas."

"Kendrick is stupid. I can't do anything about it,"said Robert. He shook his head before adding, "Yahaira, if you don't even dare to make 20million dollars off me, I have to wonder, are all the successors of Zabel Group idiots?"

As soon as Robert said those words, the crowd's gaze concentrated on them. Many people had thoughts about what would happen today. Now that they had actually met each other, it was just like a diamond cut diamond, and there was a good show to watch.

Yahaira's expression did not fluctuate. She said

gently, "It is said that Mr. Zabinski is young and fearless, not to mention very arrogant. I didn't believe it at first, but now that I see it, you are indeed arrogant."

"Arrogant?" questioned Robert looking puzzled."Am I?"

"Of course." Yahaira nodded without thinking. "Aperson in charge of a small company with only a market value of billions of dollars dares to criticize the heir of the Zabel family. If this isn't arrogance, then what is it called?"

Shaking slightly, Robert replied, "I think you are mistaken. Arrogance is boasting in front of someone stronger than me. That is what I would call arrogance. But is it also called arrogance when I say something about my defeated opponent? In just over two months, he lost more than 200 million dollars. What else can he be called if not a loser? A business whiz?"

Yahaira frowned and fixed her eyes on Robert as she remarked, "You sound very confident. Where is your confidence coming from?"

"Nothing much." Robert shrugged. "I justimproved the brand image while creating brand power for Zabinski Group. Compared with the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars in Zabel Group, the share price of Zabinski Group has

increased. Considering the shares I took back from some shareholders at a low price, I have made tens of millions of dollars. That's all to it."

Yahaira's eyes instantly became extremely chilly as she warned, "Believe it or not, I can let you spit up all those millions of dollars within a month."

"Whatever," scoffed Robert as he put his handsin his pockets. He added, "If you want to come and play in business, I can afford to play along with you. If I can make money, that's my capability. If I lose, then that only means that I am not capable enough. Are you planning to let me stay behind by looking at me like that?"

Yahaira sneered, "Haha, you're so sharp-tongued. No wonder Marilyn would rather deliberate between Kendrick and Caleb than give you a chance. Robert, how about we make a deal? Go and apologize to my hopeless brother, and I will let you have Marilyn for a night. How about it? I heard you have been chasing after her for so long, so I think this is a good deal for you. What do you think?"

Robert was smiling throughout, but now the smile gradually disappeared.

Robert knew very well that Zabel Group definitely had a hand in the disquiet caused by

the post last night. He was also aware that the. topic would be brought out today.

After all, the two sides had long shed all pretenses of cordiality with each other. They each knew what the other was thinking about. To put it bluntly, if they did not want to put up a farce, they would not do it then.

Although Robert was prepared for them to provoke him by using Marilyn before he arrived here, he still could not suppress the anger bubbling inside after he heard that.

It was not about Robert's dignity, but Marilyn still occupied the most important position in his heart.
