The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

Chapter 338 Fragile Pride Chapter 338 Fragile Pride 1 % +5 Free Coins Robin sat in the small chair , scrolling through his phone , ignoring Diana entirely .

Shirley glanced down , lost in thought for a moment , then remarked coolly , Were on a different level than they are , so lets not interrupt their meeting .

Amber heard this and nodded , also focusing on her phone in silence .

Diana watched their indifference , feeling somewhat annoyed , but she didnt say anything outright .

She still didnt fully understand what kind of relationship these three had with Rosalie .

Shirley looked over at Robin , who was still engrossed in his phone and signaled to Amber to bring out the wild ginseng .

This wild ginseng had been gifted to Timothy by a client from Nordeast .

Known as mountain ginseng , it was purchased at the Eighth Nordeast Expo in Halton , with a winning bid of 10 million dollars .

Weighing about 80 grams in dried form , it was a top quality specimen .

Robin had mentioned that Timothys health couldnt handle it .

Since then , Shirley had kept the wildly valuable ginseng in her office , but today she brought it along to gift to Diana as a health supplement .

Although she had second thoughts when she saw Diana , a sudden impulse to tease Robin made her change her mind .

So she gestured for Amber to present it .

Amber whispered , Ms.

Dunn , are you giving her such a valuable ginseng ? Shirley nodded .

Since I brought it along , I may as well .

Its not that big of a deal .

Ms.

Dunn , this wild ginseng is worth 10 million dollars ! With how shes treated you and Mr.

Ramsey , gifting it to her is such a waste ! Shirley chuckled .

Once something has a price tag , it loses its meaning .

Go ahead and bring it out .

Robins here to meet Diana and Dorothys family , so he cant show up empty- handed , can he ? Amber blinked , then stifled a giggle .

She reached into her bag and took out an elegant wooden box .

Shirley smiled and announced , Diana , Robin even brought you a special gift of ginseng today .

Robin looked up at Shirley , shaking his head , amused by her antics .

Shirley winked at him with a mischievous grin .

Diana , this is premium ginseng itll do wonders for your health , Shirley added with a smile .

Right , Robin ? Robin chuckled lightly .

Right , whatever you say .

Dianas eyes lit up , and she smiled .

A gift from Robin ? But when Amber handed her the small wooden box , the smile faded from Dianas face .

1/3 10:49 Wed , Nov 27 Chapter 338 Fragile Pride Robin , this is all youre giving me ? +5 Free Coins Robin looked up at the ginseng , recognizing it as the outrageously expensive one someone had given to Timothy .

Diana didnt seem pleased .

Whats wrong ? You dont like the gift ? Diana glanced at the small , palm sized ginseng and said coldly , Robin , bringing over something this cheap imagine how embarrassing itd be if Ethans colleagues saw this .

You have no sense at all ! At an event like this , you should bring something larger like those big gift sets of wine they sell in stores .

Sure , theyre pricier , but were only talking about , what , a couple of thousand dollars ? But you , you come in with this tiny box that looks like it barely costs a hundred bucks ! Robins mouth twitched .

Uh … if youre looking for one of those big gift boxes , I dont buy that kind of junk .

Do you even realize how rude that sounds ? Diana , frustrated , slammed the box of pricey ginseng onto the table .

Robin shook his head , going back to scrolling on his phone .

Cant help it youve got no taste .

Diana , annoyed by Robins nonchalant attitude , shook her head .

Youre completely out of line ! Their voices drew the attention of everyone at the nearby table .

Who are those three ? a woman in her 30s asked , pointing to the backs of Shirley and her friends .

Ethan squinted , studying the trio .

Maybe theyre colleagues of Rosalie ? The woman looked Shirley and Amber up and down , sneering , Those two couldnt be anything other than Eastvale Development Groups cleaning staff , could they ? Just look at what theyre wearing- laughable .

Keep your voice down ; dont bruise their egos .

People from the lower rungs have such fragile pride , another woman chimed in , covering her mouth and letting out an exaggerated laugh , her voice intentionally loud enough for everyone to hear .

The room was filled with mocking snickers and whispered remarks .

Mr.

Armstrong , your niece has no class , inviting low level employees to dine with us .

Imagine if word got out how humiliating would that be ? The womens voices grew louder , increasingly disdainful .

Unable to bear it anymore , Dorothy stood up and walked over .

Diana , who are these people ? Diana apologized , Dorothy , they said Rosalie invited them .

Im sorry are they disrupting Mr.

Armstrong and the others ? Dorothy shook her head , irritated .

Unbelievable ! I already told her to invite a few company executives , not people who dont belong at a gathering like this .

2/3 10:49 Wed , Nov Chapter 338 Fragile Pride Diana , anxious , replied , Uh … maybe we can ask them to leave once Rosalie gets here .

Oh , right , Dorothy , thats Robin .

He helped me out a lot when I was sick .

81 % +5 Free Coins Rosalie hadnt mentioned anything about Robins position in the company or his connection to Shirley .

In their minds , Robin was just a low level employee who had a crush on Rosalie .

Dorothy sized up Robin , who was still looking at his phone and scoffed .

Hes not bad looking , but … Oh , here , this is the gift Robin gave me .

Diana handed the ginseng box to Dorothy .

Thats it ? Dorothy snorted .
