His mind was about to explode as the dayâs events flooded his head. âI lost. The Jenkins familyâs top chess prodigy from Ybaulla was defeated by a Clusia woman like this? Her name isnât even on the international chess rankings. How could she have beaten me?â Robin couldnât accept the fact. His face turned pale, and his veins bulged.
The bodyguard heard the noise and pushed the door open. Seeing that Robin was awake, he immediately reported to Kyle.
When Robin saw the two people pushing the door open, he immediately started cursing loudly. âGet out! Get out right now! Who gave you the right to push the door open without my permission? Iâm definitely going to tell Prime Minister Kyle that you two are extremely rude. Rude! Get out!â
Robinâs roaring only earned him the cold sneers and disdain of the two bodyguards. âDoes this Robin still think heâs some highâ
andâmighty world chess champion?â Todayâs match video has already gone viral. He lost to a relatively unknown girl in the chess world, and this has caused a huge scandal in their country. About thirty thousand comments are all cursing him. Even if he returns to Ybaulla, heâs just a despised person. The two bodyguards exchanged a glance. âThis Robin really canât get it through his thick skull. He still has time to throw a tantrum here!
One of the bodyguards spoke up, not very politely, showing a stark contrast to how they treated Robin a few days ago. âRobin, this is Mr. Hallâs orders. Once you wake up, you need to report immediately. Weâre just following orders. Besides, when you suddenly started making such loud noises, we thought something happened and had to push the door open. Since everythingâs fine, weâre leaving now.â
Robin was so furious at the bodyguardsâ words that he became even more frantic. Donât think he didnât see the contempt in their eyes. âThese two bodyguards dare to treat me like this? Theyâre really pushing it!â âWhat attitude are you two showing? Iâm the eldest son of the Jenkins family, do you think you can talk to me like that? Two watchdogs, get out! I wonât let you off easily!â
The two bodyguards left without even turning their heads after hearing this. âRobin is nothing but a paper tiger. Whatâs there to be afraid of?â
Of course, Robin didnât know that his harsh words to the bodyguards would eventually lead to his mysterious death. After the bodyguards left, the dimly lit hospital room only had Robinâs eerie and terrifying face faintly visible. Suddenly, the phone on the cabinet rang. Robin immediately turned to stare at the phone and then started laughing sinisterly. His laugh was chilling. âYeah, Iâve already placed an order with Zola, the top killer from Black Gold online. Zola will definitely kill that Yvette. With a top killer on the job, that woman is doomed. Even if I win, whatâs the point if I canât live to enjoy the applause and praise? Itâs all just pathetic.
He couldnât wait to pick up the phone, and a text message was prominently displayed on the screen.
âBetrico, left at the third fork, rooftop of the tall building. Your person has arrived.ââ The sender was Zola.
Seeing these words, Robinâs eyes immediately lit up. He excitedly held his phone, quickly grabbing it without even changing out of his hospital gown. He didnât expect the top killer Zola to be so efficient in his work, catching someone so quickly. Wearing only a thin jacket, Robin ran out of the hospital room, laughing as he ran. He looked completely insane.
The two bodyguards happened to come out of the bathroom and saw Robinâs state. One wanted to stop him, but the other held him back, saying bitterly, âWhy stop him? What if he runs away? Letâs just stay on our posts. Maybe Robin is just going somewhere to vent his emotions. We shouldnât follow him.â The bodyguard who wanted to stop him found his reasoning valid and stayed in place.
way, he tried On the rooftop, Robin ran out of the hospital and hailed a taxi without even driving his own car. Along the hard to suppress his inner hatred. âSoon I can see Yvette being humiliated with my own eyes. When she dies, I wonât let her off. I must capture the most painful and desperate moment of her death and upload it online for the whole world to see. Let everyone see how miserable the soâcalled Goddess of Clusia dies. This is the fate of someone who goes against us Ybaulla!â
In Skyland, Yvette came downstairs. In the living room, Samantha, Andrew, and Charles were dealing with the landlord. The three saw Yvette dressed in a leather jacket, black casual clothes, and a baseball cap. Her long hair was tied up, revealing only half of her delicate face. She obviously looks like sheâs going out Samantha put down her cards. âYve, are you going out? What about Jeremiah? Isnât he coming with you?â
Yvette put her hands in her pockets, flicked her eyelids, and casually said, âHeâs tired and went to sleep. Iâm going out by myself.â With that, she left.
Andrew exclaimed, âDamn!â Then he turned to Charles and Samantha mysteriously. âJeremiah is tired... Is Jeremiah not up to it?
Look, Yve seems fine. Didnât expect Jeremiah to be so weak inside.â
Charles raised his chin slightly. âAlthough I donât think it should be like this, Andrew does have a point. Maybe itâs true. But isnât there a possibility that itâs not Jeremiahâs fault, but that the instructor is too harsh?â
Samantha nodded and continued to sit down, picking up her cards. âItâs really hard to say if this is going to work or not!â
Twenty minutes later, Robin arrived at the location based on the address Zola provided. He glanced around the environment.
âIsnât this place a bit too secluded? How can there be such a gloomy spot in the city center?â But then he thought, âAfter all, Zola is a killer dealing with shady business. Itâs normal to meet in such places for transactions. Feeling relieved, he took the elevator and then walked to the topâfloor balcony. He was so eager to get there that he wanted to run the rest of the way, not wanting to wait another moment.
The night was deep and silent. The entire city of Betrico was engulfed in thick darkness. Looking out from the rooftop, Betrico was brilliantly lit up.
Robin shakily pushed open the balcony door. He was only wearing a thin hospital gown and a jacket, barely keeping out the cold night wind and chill air. His teeth were chattering from the cold. To avoid losing face in front of Zola, he forced himself to pretend he wasnât cold.
On the rooftop, as soon as Robin opened the door, he saw a figure wearing a hat sitting on the edge. From his angle, the back was very slender, not at all like a manâs back. Robin didnât expect a top killer to have a back as thin as a womanâs. âCan someone like this really be a top killer?â
Robin looked around, thinking it was just his imagination in the dark. Besides them, there was no one else on the rooftop. As he walked in, he cautiously asked, âHello, are you Zola? Iâm Mr. Jenkins. Didnât you say that woman has arrived? Where is she? I havenât seen her!â
As Robin moved closer, he noticed Zolaâs sitting position. âThis is too dangerous. If a person moves even a little, they might fall off the rooftop! What a lunatic!â
