Chapter 8 The Very Survival of the Dunns Chapter 8 The Very Survival of the Dunns Noticing Alices continued gloom , Zachary wiped the blood from his lip and continued , Alice , are you worried about the Eastvale Ecological Project ? Theres no need for concern ! My dad has already reached out to Daphne from Alphacrest Group .

She mentioned that she might offer us a ten billion dollar stake in the Eastvale project .

When the time comes , Ill speak with Ms.

West and arrange for us to give the Millers a 30 % share of our portion .

As you know , Alphacrest Group primarily owns the Eastvale Ecological Project .

Alices eyes sparkled with interest in this information .

Daphne from Alphacrest Group was a powerful figure , on par with Harmonfields underground kingpin .

Rygar ! She was Alices idol and represented the kind of woman she aspired to be ! When Alphacrest Group first arrived in Harmonfield , Rygar attempted to stifle them .

However , within a month , all his efforts were in vai Instead , he had to personally apologize and agree to a truce , From that point on , Alphacrest Group rapidly ascended in Harmonfield , with Daphne becoming one of the most enigmatic and formidable figures in the citys business community .

Alice asked , half in disbelief , Mr.

Gill , are you saying the Gills have really established contact with Ms.

West from Alphacrest Group ? Zachary , momentarily taken aback , smiled and replied , Yes , Alice .

So , we dont need to worry about the Dunns .

Robin is just a lowly pauper compared to us .

The guests at the party were equally astonished by this revelation .

Daphne from Alphacrest Group wielded immense influence in Harmonfield , despite her low profile .

Her mysterious background commanded respect without the need for overt displays of anger .

With such a formidable figure involved , the Dunns wouldnt dare assert themselves as the top players in her presence .

To think that the Gills had managed to align themselves with her ! It appeared that the Gills , as one of Harmonfields leading families , still possessed significant clout .

The Millers breathed a sigh of relief .

Juliet , Alices mother , who had been anxious , now felt a surge of excitement upon hearing this news .

West from Alphacrest Group is no ordinary person Zachary , the Millers are counting on your family Once we partner with Alphacrest Group , Im eager to see how Robin will behave in our presence A smile slowly spread across Alices face .

She thought with a touch of cold amusement , Robin , you uncouth pauper , do you think youve achieved something by associating with the Dunns ? How ridiculous ! Youll never match up to Mr.

Gill ! Dont even think about being arrogant in front of me ! I will eventually become a queen , like Daphne from Alphacrest Group ! When that time comes , if you dare to ignore me again , Ill make you beg for mercy ! Outside the Miller Group , Drake hurried to catch up with Robin and said respectfully , Mr.

Ramsey , may I ask that you join me in the car for a private discussion ? Robin stopped in his tracks .

He had initially intended to decline , but seeing the carnest expressions on Drake and Shirleys faces , he reconsidered .

He remembered how the Dunns had publicly supported him at the Millers party , and Shirley had set aside her own dignity to declare her feelings for him Their gesture showed a profound respect for Robin .

While Robin didnt necessarily require such flattery , the Dunns approach was undeniably heartfelt If it hadnt been for your intervention today , Mr.

Ramsey , my beloved granddaughter could have been in serious danger , Drake said .

Mr.

Ramsey , youre the Dunns lifesaver .

Id willingly give you all the assets of the Dunns if it meant showing our gratitude .

From now on , Mr.

Ramsey , you are our most honored guest .

Feel free to take whatever you need from the Dunns properties at any time , and all of us at the Dunns will follow your directives .

And , he added , what my granddaughter expressed at the party wasnt just for appearances or to flatter you .

Mr.

Ramsey .

Its a genuine sentiment , and I hope you will give it serious consideration At this point , Shirleys blush had spread to her neck , and she shyly avoided meeting Robins eyes .

Robin gave a faint smile .

My previous help was purely coincidental .

It was just a minor gesture .

Mr.

Ramsey , if I muy , could you please stay a moment longer ? I have one more request .

Would you join me in the car for a private discussion ? This matter concerns the very survival of the Duns Robin had initially planned to refuse and leave , but Shirley added , Mr.

Ramsey , those who kidnapped me are old enemies of the Dunns .

They have returned to threaten us .

We urgently need your assistance , or we may not survive this crisis .

Robin frowned .

I … dont want to get involved in your problems Drake hesitated for a moment but then nodded reluctantly .

Mr.

Ramsey , if you truly dont wish to help , I wont insist .

But its snowing heavily tonight , and its already very late .

It would be best if you stayed with us at the Dunns for the night and left tomorrow .

Robin looked at the thick snowfall ; finding a taxi would be nearly impossible .

Old Freds villa at Eastvales Crescent Lake was quite far away .

Alright , then .

Ill stay for the night , Robin said , begrudgingly agreeing .

Drake sighed in relief and promptly invited Robin into his car .

Drake took the front seat , deliberately placing Robin in the back with Shirley beside him .

Inside the car , a pleasant fragrance filled the air .

Robin couldnt help but glance at Shirley .

It was hard not to be captivated by her presence .

Despite the troubles of the world , Shirley seemed like a celestial being , untouched by earthly concerns .

Fresh and pure , she was breathtakingly beautiful .

Shirleys cheeks flushed under Robins gaze .

She was about to express her gratitude , but Robin leaned back and closed his eyes , appearing lost in thought .

Noticing that Robin preferred silence , Shirley and Drake also fell quiet .

After about ten minutes of driving , the car abruptly stopped on the snowy mountain road leading to the Dunns villa .

The slippery road had caused Drakes convoy of SUVS to collide with one another .

Mr.

Dunn Sr.

, were under attack by assassins hired by Norris ! Andrew , leading a group of bodyguards , quickly surrounded the car for protection .

There are about four armed assassins .

Mr.

Dunn Sr.

, we need to call the police for assistance ! Drakes face tightened with concern .

Theres no time .

Even if we call the police , they wont arrive in time to make a difference …
