Robin stared blankly at the man placed before him. It was Alexander’s assistant and he realized that in all of his planning, he had not even thought of the man who was always by the old man’s side.

“How could I have missed you?” Robin asked as he stepped forward toward the man. The assistant still had a defiant look in his eyes and he didn’t seem to fear Bruce yet. It was obvious that Bruce hadn’t tortured him and that was why he was still defiant.

“What’s your name again?” Robin asked.

“Oh, common! Is that how you want to interrogate him? Get in the mood for some torture!” Bruce yelled feeling a bit irritated that Robin wouldn’t just swing into action.

Robin turned to look at Bruce with raised brows knowing that Bruce didn’t know that he only used violence when worst came to worst, if he was being overridden, or when his life was completely in danger.

“By the way, his name is Smith, so save yourself the stress,” Bruce said with a roll of his eyes. Aside from being an underworld boss

    “That’s more like it!” Bruce yelled in glee and the next second he winced in pain as he hit his bandaged thigh. Robin didn’t even cast a glance at him as he followed the screaming Smith into one of the cages.“Tie him to that chair,” Robin said as soon as he spotted a chair in the middle of a cage. Soon, he was left alone in the cage while Bruce, his men, and Mac stood outside the cage while the rest of the prisoners continued to cower in fear. They weren’t ready for the nightmare that was about to happen.“What the fuck do you want to do?” Smith spat out with an angry look in his eyes. But then Robin didn’t bother to reply to him. “What do you think?” Robin asked back as he walked around the cage looking through the torture tools scattered around. His eyes twinkled as he saw a switch on the wall and he halted.“What does that switch do?” He asked Bruce with eager eyes as he wouldn’t mind zapping electricity through Smith’s body.“Well, it sends showers of boiling hot water toward yo

    Robin raised his brows in surprise as soon as he heard that. Bruce had said his mansion was one of the hardest to break into but now it seemed that wasn’t so.“So much for bragging, isn’t it?” He asked with a taunting look on his face while Bruce rolled his eyes at him.“What do we do, Robin? We don’t have time for such chats.” Mac came forward with a serious look on his face. Now, he wasn’t even scared to face danger or unsettling situations with Robin unlike how he used to be before. “We have to face him head-on,” Robin replied and Bruce nodded but still he didn’t make any move or command his men to do some security protocols. However, there was a look of contemplation on Bruce’s face which got Robin wondering what was wrong.“Is anything wrong?” Robin asked.“Yes, the most baffling thing is that Jared didn’t come with anyone else but himself. How is that possible? He knows it’s a death trap to come into my mansion without adequate security.” Bruce said out his concerns with a frow

    “He has her,” Robin whispered to Mac. Just like he had expected, he knew that Jared would have gotten to Angie and now, she was dragged into the cell and placed in another empty cage.“What are we going to do? He is going to do something bad… and maybe kill her.” Mac said in worry but Robin was entirely aware of those worries. Jared could decide to do what he did to Isabella to Angie as well. Even though Angie was not Robin’s lover, he might go crazy if history repeats itself again.“Look who we have here…” Jared called out with a glowing smile on his face as he stood by Angie’s cage. Angie looked straight at Robin with a calm look in her eyes. She was prepared for whatever was going to happen and she wasn’t even scared one bit.However, her attitude made Robin worry the more as he started to think that he had caused all of this. Low-key he thought that his problems would be solved and he would finally put an end to all of his worries when he got into the underworld but that was not

    “Why? Why?” Robin asked almost immediately. His eyes dimmed as he continued to watch Angie get manhandled while his fists tightened around the bar railings in anger.[You have neglected your missions and tasks, it’s only a matter of time before the Squandering System disappears.]“Shit!” Robin cussed in anger and dismay as he regretted never involving the system in his plans. No matter what, the system had assisted him to where he was now, and now he neglected it because he thought that the system would get in his way.“Is there anything I can do? I need to save her!” Robin asked desperately. Right at this moment, Jared was laying on Angie and he was really trying to force himself on her. At the same time, she was desperately trying to wade him off but then it was as if her little fight was enjoyed by Jared and he only gave her room to fight more before he finally devoured her.No matter what Robin asked, the system didn’t care to answer, deciding to neglect Robin at this point as wel

    The whole place went silent as the gunshot sound went off and Robin’s eyes widened in shock when he saw blood spurt out of Bruce’s body. It was like everything was moving in a slow motion and it wasn’t even reality for anyone present.“Die! You bastard!” Jared let out with a wicked look in his eyes as he staggered. Mac held onto him tightly and he wished he could strangle him to death.“What have you done?” Mac asked with gritted teeth as his fingers dug into Jared's arms tightly.“Ended a decade-old feud! I overcame! I overcame…” Jared let out a victorious smirk on his face and soon he burst into a peal of hilarious laughter. The wickedness in his eyes was evident and he wasn’t even remorseful that he had just killed his brother.“You bastard!” Robin rushed forward and dragged Jared, smacking him in the face. He was still in control of the menacing skill and the smack almost caused Jared’s neck to snap. His face got swollen immediately and his eyes turned blurry. In the next second,

    Robin immediately rushed to Bruce's bedside with a panicked look on his face. Bruce's lost look caused him to frown, wondering if the underworld lord had turned into a dummy. "Bruce..." He called out and he was about to touch him but then the medics suddenly rushed in to push him backward. "You can't stay in here, sir. We have to take a look at him first." One of the medics pushed Robin away and he frowned. "But he is awake..." Robin said with a confused look on his face. He didn't know how these things worked but then he was already thinking that Bruce was okay."Yes, but we still need to check on him. It is also unexpected that he is awake now. Something must be wrong." The medic said and Robin nodded, casting a fleeting glance at Bruce on the bed. "Take care of him then..." He said, understandingly and instantly, he turned to walk out. He just couldn't wait for Bruce to get hold of himself. They had plans to keep up with and he didn't think he could do it all alone. A few minu

    Bruce’s declaration caught Robin off guard so much that he couldn’t utter any more words. His eyes dimmed and for the first time after his mother’s death, tears spilled from his eyes.“You… can’t die,” Robin said with a shaky tone. He had not spent so much time with Bruce and he had not formed a deep bond with the underworld boss, but then he had seen Bruce’s pain and frustration.“I have to go… Robin.” Bruce let out with a happy smile on his face and before Robin could even say anything, two men walked into the medical room dressed in black suits. Robin turned to look at them with a frown on his face. Instantly, he stood upright, ready to face them in a fight.If they were here to finish what Jared started, then they were mistaken.“Boss…” The men called out and they rushed toward Bruce’s bedside but Robin was quick to stop them with a ferocious look on his face. Seeing Robin, the men immediately stepped back with a scared looks on their faces.“Let… them through…” Bruce said from be

    The words of the system rang through Robin’s head like a storm! It was something he refused to believe and he wanted to convince himself that the system was probably joking.“You are joking right?” He asked with raised brows. Bruce, willing everything to him was already a heavy burden to him and now he was tasked with a near-impossible mission. He wasn’t even interested in staying in the underworld if eventually he got his revenge done. He wanted to live a peaceful life afterward but the mission would never let him do that.[No, the system would never joke with a mission.] “Then, I can’t do what you have asked me. I have no desire to be an underworld boss.” Robin replied with a firm look on his face. He scrunched up the document in his hand knowing that was what possibly caused the system to give him such a ridiculous mission.[You have no choice, Robin. You have made a pledge and you cannot back out. Else, there will be consequences.] The system said, and it was the first time sinc

    “Did you find anything?” Robin asked as soon as Leon came back and the old man nodded. “He is telling the truth,” Leon said simply causing Robin to look at Arti with a probing look. However, he didn't want to probe too much as what he needed to do now was to find Angie. “I think you need to go back to the underworld. They abducted her.” Arti chipped. “I hate to say this but if we don't act fast, Angie might die.” “Shit!” Robin cussed in anger and punched the air. He didn't want to go back there at all. But then the dark band was still with him and there was no way they wouldn't look out for him. “Get ready, we are leaving!” He ordered and then turned to go to his bedroom with Leon to prepare. On the other hand, Arti smirked in victory. He was the one who planned the abduction. No matter what, he wanted his previous boss, Bruce’s legacy to go on. He would do everything to get Robin back there. Arti was itching to put more bullets into the heads of people and he couldn't do that

    “Are you okay?” Robin asked as he patted down on Angie’s hair. He led her into his bedroom and Angie could only smile sheepishly. “Tell me what you want to eat. I will get it for you.” Robin uttered, as he made her lay on his bed and he covered her up. He did everything with so much care that Angie was blushing continuously. “No… you don't have to do that.” She said, holding his hand. “You just got out of the police cell, you should rest.” “No, you should be the one resting. Look at me, I'm fine.” Robin put her words down and then stood up to his feet. “Wait here. I'll get you something to eat.” He quickly turned around to leave and before Angie could say something he was gone. She was left sighing on the bed and as she stared blankly at the ceiling, her heart felt full and at the same time, it was in turmoil. She didn't know if Robin was being so caring because of the recent happenings. It was likely so but then why did he have to kiss her before everyone earlier? Does he lik

    Robin was remanded in the interrogation room which had dim lighting and two police officers sat before him. “So, where were you with Mac before he died?” They asked. “We were on a work trip,” Robin replied. His reply was vague but then that was the truth. However, it only made the officers more suspicious. “You can't just say you were on a work trip. Where exactly?” They asked. “I–” Knock!Knock!!Robin was cut off with a knock on the door and in the next second, the door opened and a police officer in uniform walked in. “Sir, Angie Hamilton appeared and is demanding to speak to the detective in charge of the case.” The police officer announced. “Angie? Angie is here?” Robin shot up to his feet with a surprised look on his face. How did she get there when she was supposed to be hospitalized? That was the thought in his head and he was about to move to go to her without thinking of anything else.“Mr. Claire, you will have to stay here.” One officer, held him by his shoulder an

    Mac’s parents left the mansion in tears as Robin refused to hand over the company to them. However, they looked like they were really going to carry out their threats.“How are you going to solve this? You can't give them the company.” Leon said, walking up and down while Robin sat on the couch. He was silent as he tapped his fingers on the handrest. Claire’s Logistics was the dearest company to him. It was what he founded first and even at that, he could give it out freely for the sake of Mac. But then the moment he starts to give them whatever they wanted, they would come back and ask for more, stating the fact that he killed their son. Mac died because of him but then it didn't mean Robic killed him. He was ready to atone for his sins but with how greedy the parents were, they weren't worth the stress. “Leon…” Robin spoke up as he stood up to his feet. “Let them do their worst. I am not giving them a single penny anymore.” He declared and Leon nodded gleefully. “But if they c

    Two days had passed since Robin buried his mother, Mac and Bruce. Several articles had been going all over the internet speculating how Alexander was killed and who killed him. The netizens were also trying to connect his death with the deaths that happened in the underworld. Surprisingly, the police had decided to intervene in the issue. The hideouts of Kaden and his brothers were raided but they couldn't find anything leading back to Robin, he had cleared up everything. And as the bearer of the dark band, no one was willing to snitch on Robin.Also, he had made sure to move Angie to a private hospital, and as of now, though he didn't want anything to do with the underworld, the members still wanted him back and they were already proposing that he reunite every organization in there.A few seconds later, there was a knock on Robin's bedroom and he opened his eyes slowly but he could see nothing. The bedroom was dark and the windows were closed while the curtains were drawn. No amoun

    "It's done..." Robin said on the phone with a sigh through his lips. Alexander was locked up in the cell and he was back in Bruce's mansion. "Really? You have Alexander?" Leon said from the other side of the phone. His heart was filled with glee at the thought that their efforts were not in vain. "Yes, Leon. I have a few plans I would need you to carry out." Robin said and Leon answered accordingly. He was ready to do whatever Robin said and a few seconds later, Robin dished out a few instructions and Leon understood. However, before the call got disconnected, Robin revealed what had transpired, "Leon, Bruce and Mac are dead. While Angie is in a critical condition. She might not make it." He dropped the bombshell shell and directly disconnected the call. He didn't want Leon to blame him or try to comfort him. In the next second, Robin threw his phone to the other side and slipped to the floor in his bedroom. This was the time when he was alone and now, he could let it all out. Tea

    "No! He is not!" Kaden suddenly screamed, in annoyance. He stood up to his feet immediately and dashed toward them, standing in between Robin and the three men. "He is not the possessor! I am!" Kaden said, angrily. "I have him in my custody! Everything that is on him, belongs to me. So, technically, I am the possessor." He explained in one breath, hoping the three men would come to their senses and acknowledge him instead. "No, he has the band, he is the possessor." One of the men said, pointing at Robin. "No..." Kaden continued to yell but in the next second, they pushed him off and stood before Robin again. "We came as soon as we saw that you are the new possessor. We saw that you were in distress and we decided to come to your aid." One of the men said and Robin who was still reeling in and thinking about what was happening, shook his head slightly. He thought that he was dreaming but then it was real and he needed to put this moment to use accordingly. "Kill him," Robin orde

    Immediately, Robin dashed toward Alexander going for the kill. There was nothing in his way to stop and at this moment, he decided that he was going to end this so-called feud between them. On the other hand, Rico suddenly shot up to his feet and dragged Alexander backward in his wheelchair.While Robin was about to launch his attack, there was a sudden bang, and then a gunshot followed. The bullet hit Robin's shield and bounced back, however, it halted his movements rapidly. "Stop!" Kaden's voice rang out with a brutal edge to it. Immediately, Robin's head snapped to look at him and he was right there, beside Angie, pointing a gun at her head. "If you move, I'll shoot. I'll shoot her and you will be losing someone else as well!" Kaden yelled, however, he was in great shock. He was shocked to see that the bullet he shot bounced off. Different scenarios of why that could happen crossed his mind and he even started to think that it was because of the dark band! He was so delusional an

    "Fuck! Are we too late? Is she dead?" Mac asked, with a bit of panic in his tone as the audio from the video went off. On the other hand, Robin held onto his phone tightly, and it was obvious it was going to get crushed in the next second. "She better not! They will regret ever doing that!" Robin threatened and he was really going to carry out his threat if Angie was really dead. But deep down, he refused to believe that was what happened. He knew that Kaden was just trying to get him to the location quicker. "Let's go..." Robin said, and he didn't forget to snatch a few weapons from Bruce's armory. He was ready to kill anyone on his way to Angie. A few minutes later, they got into a car and drove off while Arti was looking down at the departing car with regret in his eyes. Deep down, he wished that he was able to tie Robin down, so he could take that band away. On the other hand, Robin drove speedily, following the direction of the GPS in his car. Soon, they arrived before an aban
