As Yahaira saw the smile on Robert's face gradually disappear, delight flashed across her eyes.

Robert took a deep breath and was about to speak when he heard a clear voice behind him.

"Ms. Yahaira Zabel, right? I had already heard ofMs. Zabel's great name long ago. Ms. Zabel has been talked about enthusiastically during financial operations in Atharians several times. I thought you were a woman of substance but didn't realize that you would do things like gossip about people behind their backs. We are both women. Does belittling other women like this make you seem more different and eccentric?"

The moment he heard the voice, Robert's heart suddenly lifted. Turning around, he saw Marilyn in a black evening dress walking gracefully and slowly like a proud black swan before finally standing beside him.

"Marilyn?" Yahaira narrowed her eyes and said."You don't seem to have figured out thesituation. First of all, you are not a Zabel. No matter whether you have my brother's support or if my hopeless younger brother is obsessed

with you, you have not yet become part of the Zabel Group. Even if you become a part of the Zabel Group, when is it up to you to talk to me like this?"

"Becoming part of the Zabel Group?" repeatedMarilyn as her face showed puzzlement. She stretched out her tanned arm and removed the hairpin on her head.

At this moment, with the entire length of her hair let down, her womanly charm was unreservedly revealed. Marilyn shook the long hair behind her head. For her, in this etiquette-oriented scene, her seemingly messy long hair actually meant her throwing away many of the constraints on her.

Marilyn naturally held Robert's arm, who was beside her, and as Robert looked on in surprise, she said, "Who do you think the Zabel Group is? Was I the one who asked to be a part of the Zabel Group? From the beginning to the end, Kendrick was the one who was pestering me. As for the things on the internet, I remember an old saying in our country that says rumors stop at the wise. If you can't even distinguish between truth and rumors and take them out to gossip enthusiastically, then I don't think I have to explain anything anymore, right, Ms. Zabel?"

Yahaira did not expect Marilyn to be aggressive

with her words.

In Yahaira's opinion, this woman from the Quesnell family would not dare to offend the Zabel Group.

In front of the Zabel Group, the Quesnell family were just bootlickers.

Yahaira's eyes were full of strong discontent as she fumed, "Marilyn, do you know what you are doing now? Do your elders know how presumptuous you are being in front of me?"

"Ms. Zabel, it seems like you haven't listenedcarefully to what I just said," said Marilyn before she stepped forward and asked."Who does the Zabel Group think they are? What makes you so confident and proud of being a member of the Zabel family? Have you forgotten how you lost the last battle in Atharians?"

Yahaira could not help squeezing the wine glass harder as she said, "It was you?"

"Haha," Marilyn laughed and said nothing.

At this time, Robert stepped forward and blocked Marilyn so he was also facing Yahaira.

Yahaira was half a head shorter than Robert.

At this moment, Robert looked down at Yahajra and smiled, saying, "Ms. Zabel, this is Yrinas. Crown Club is my property. Your gaze has made me very uncomfortable. It makes me feel that you are threatening my date on my territory and in front of me! We are all from the northwest, and our personalities are a little hot-tempered. If you keep up with this gaze, I'm afraid that after you leave here, someone might not be able to tolerate it and do something to hurt you, Ms. Zabel."

Yahaira's expression changed, and all her indifference disappeared. "Robert, are you threatening me?"
