Chapter 271 Do You Enjoy Kneeling That Much?
The expressions on Conrad and Darren's faces instantly turned cold.
Darren had held some hope for Anna before.
But at this point, it was all gone!
The enchanting fairy tale of the bar's perfect couple had become a scar of time.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
He never imagined that Anna would say that to Robin.
Seeing Robin's attitude, Anna shook her head in frustration. "Robin, you're no longer that 13 or 14-year-old boy. You should handle issues like a real man, with reason. "This isn't a world where you rely on your fists; it's about a person's overall capabilities.
"Do you even understand what overall capabilities mean?
"If you can't understand this, your efforts will be misdirected, and your way of handling problems will be wrong.
"If your mindset is wrong, your life direction will be too."
Then, Anna glanced at the expressionless Robin and sighed.
"Fine, because we knew each other back then, I'll say a bit more.
"When we talk about a person's overall capabilities, it's not just about how much strength you possess; it includes your background, wealth, status, and network. "Those social resources are your true power. Do you get it?"
Alison exclaimed excitedly, "Yes, yes! Ms. Harlow is absolutely right!"
It was only then that Anna noticed Alison beside her, and a flash of irritation crossed her face. "Did I give you permission to speak?"
Alison quickly replied, "I'm sorry, Ms. Harlow! I got carried away by your words and spoke without thinking."
A hint of satisfaction flickered in Anna's eyes as she turned her attention back to Robin.
"Robin, I know that being at the bottom of society makes it difficult for you to understand the lifestyle and logic of the upper class. I can empathize with you. "Consider this. What would have happened if I hadn't arrived in time?
"Do you think you could confront the Grimwolf Crew, the Terenova police, or even the upper echelons of power all by yourself?
"That would be impossible!
"You might lose your life because of your stubbornness, and I really don't want to see that.
"After all, we once knew each other.
"Robin, a true man knows when to be flexible. What harm is there in apologizing to Adrian and the Grimwolf Crew?
"Forget about pride.
"Staying alive is what truly matters.
"No matter what social class you belong to, only living has real meaning.
"After this, I can introduce you to some influential people.
"If you cherish these connections and win their favor, your life could take a different direction.
"Even if you're not the sharpest, as long as you serve them well, you can at least reach the middle class, and you won't have to mingle with people at the bottom of society anymore. "Robin, I'm being patient and explaining all this because of the bond we shared seven years ago.
"Stop being stubborn and apologize to Adrian and the Grimwolf Crew. Then this matter will be over.
"And your friend Conrad won't have to deal with the Grimwolf Crew anymore."
After saying this, Anna proudly glanced at the few people in the bar.
The large Dreamscape Bar was eerily quiet.
Alison nodded in admiration and turned to Robin, saying, "Ms. Harlow is absolutely right! Why don't you hurry and apologize to Adrian?"
Robin raised an eyebrow. "Do you really enjoy apologizing that much?"
Brenda tugged at Alison, her anger flaring. "How can you say that? "Have you forgotten how the Grimwolf Crew bullied us?!
"Robin would never listen to that trashy woman and apologize to them!"
A flicker of annoyance crossed Anna's face. "Who do you think you are?"
Brenda glared at Anna defiantly. "I'm
his sister, and I look down on your
No matter how wealthy or
you are, you're not worthy of bin!"
Robin chuckled softly and affectionately ruffled Brenda's hair.
"How dare you!" Anna's two bodyguards stepped forward, ready to attack Brenda. Robin pulled Brenda close to him, smiling coldly. "Think twice before you act! "Brenda is my sister. If anyone dares to lay a finger on her, I will kill them!" "Robin!" Brenda's eyes glistened with tears as she leaned against him. Seven years ago, Robin would say this to the punks who dared to bully her. Anna's eyes lit up.
On that golden evening seven years ago, Robin had said something similar to her!
"Get out of here!" Anna commanded the bodyguards.
Then she turned to Robin, taking a deep breath. "Robin, I understand the fierce pride that comes from your world.
"Better to break than to bend.
"But what was the outcome?
"Why complicate things? Just apologize, and it will all be over."
Robin met Anna's scornful gaze with a chilling smile.
"The Grimwolf Crew forced Conrad's sister Charis to take drugs, and Adrian raped her.
"These monsters took turns violating Charis.
"And as if that wasn't enough, they cruelly killed her!
"You're a woman too. Don't you have any compassion for what happened to Charis?
"You want me to apologize to those inhuman beasts in exchange for my and Conrad's leaving here?
"Is this the logic of the so-called upper class that you pride yourself on?"
Anna listened to Robin's words with an expressionless face and replied coldly, "Robin, right now, you should be thinking about how to leave here alive with your friend Conrad
"Instead of obsessing over insignificant issues from the past.
"I'm not sure what you've experienced over the years.
"How did you become so stubborn?
"I just want to share a timeless truth with you!
"To be a hero who protects others, you must have the necessary strength.
"Without status, background, identity, wealth, or connections, you can achieve nothing!
"Otherwise, not only will you be unable to help others, but you'll also drag yourself into a bottomless abyss.
"In the end, you'll become everyone's laughingstock.
"When someone is in over their head, it's a recipe for disaster.
"And let's face it, that's a major cause of life's tragedy."
As Anna spoke, she shot a scornful glance at Robin, Darren, and Conrad, shaking her head. "The real world is like @jungle filled with wild beasts.
"The law of the jungle is that the weak are preyed upon while the strong survive.
"Conrad's sister was forced into drug use by the Grimwolf Crew and gang-raped to death by them; this means she was too weak. "Her tragic fate was unavoidable.
"The Grimwolf Crew's actions are hardly unexpected.
"It's like stepping on an ant. Do you think you've done anything wrong?
"Would you go to war with the entire world over the death of an ant?"
