Chapter 22
The Lethal Love Hunter
Chapter 22 Like a Queen
A ray of sunlight shone through the French window of Purpeak Towerâs flyover passage.
The sunlight slanted on Ceciliaâs charming and cold face.
She was surrounded by a team of female bodyguards. They all had a perfect body.
Ceciliaâs dignified and elegant air made her look like a queen.
She looked out the window and saw Robin at Purpeak Plaza. He was on the way.
There was a smirk on her lips.
It came to Cecilia that her master had warned her. There was no turning back once Cecilia stepped into this mortal world.
Dangers lurked around every corner.
If Cecilia wanted to find the royal road to success, she must work hard.
There was no turning back!
To survive this trek, Cecilia had to learn to be more ruthless and unscrupulous.
Her pretty face wouldnât help.
Cecilia aspired to stand alone, rise to fame, and make a mark.
But this would be harder for a woman than any man who was already powerful

In this world, kindness and indulgence were for the weak.
People would fear and respect Cecilia only when she was at the top of the pyramid.
Then she could rule the world the way she wanted.
And then Cecilia could hold her fate in her hands.
Bearing that in mind, Cecilia killed her way out.
She was bloodthirsty.
The more intimidating her enemy was, the more she enjoyed the fight.
The handsome Robin came all the way here.
Cecilia was impressed by him.
It was because he was strong and exceptional.
And he was proud and defiant.
He wouldnât give a damn even if he was alone against the whole world.â
Cecilia looked at men with a critical eye. Only talents like Robin could get her attention.
She gazed at Robinâs rugged face under the sun.
An untamed soul was hiding beneath the defiant look in his deep eyes.
Cecilia thought, âRobin is like some kind of mellow wine.
He must be an interesting man.
And he must have many good stories!

I want to know more about him.
I want to know how come he has such a domineering air.
I actually have a crush on him!â

Robin followed Livia to the foyer of Purpeak Hotel.
He sneezed.
At this momentâ¦
Robin sensed that from a 15âdegree angle above, a pair of seductive and sharp eyes were studying him.
That made him uncomfortable and feel like he was walking in the wild, being watched by a monster.
Robin glanced in that direction.
The strong sunlight, reflected by the glass, helped to disguise all the furtive movements.
Livia kept a close eye on him.
She was seizing him up and wondering why Cecilia took a shine to him.
In Liviaâs eyes, Robin was just a handsome man, nothing special.
If she looked at his riding and shooting skills, he was still average.
What distinguished Robin from other men was his arrogance.
Livia didnât understand.

Cecilia was a lofty and perfect lady.
Cecilia was totally out of Robinâs league!
Back then, Livia chose to serve Cecilia in this mortal world.
She had been there for Cecilia all the time when Cecilia fought and defeated one tough enemy after another to get where she was today.
No man had ever had such a privilege to be liked by Cecilia.
However, Cecilia fell in love with Robin at first sight.
There must be something special about Robin.
Livia stared at him, trying to figure it out.
Yet again, she failed to see anything special.
It had been years.
Robin was the first man who had received such special treatment.
This had become countless menâs dreams even since Cecilia entered this world.
They all dreamt of sitting and drinking tea with Cecilia.
These men were loaded and came from powerful families.
But Cecilia refused them.
Why was Robin so lucky?
Cecilia made him an exception.
Livia was curious, looking down and moving ahead.

Robin suddenly stopped, and Livia collided with him.
âYou⦠Why did you stop?â Livia asked angrily, fixing her hair.
âI feel you are staring at me from behind. It makes me uncomfortable!â
Livia blushed and tried to hide the guilty look on her face.
âDonât flatter yourself. Why would I stare at you? I would rather stare at a dog!â
With that, Livia nervously shifted her gaze at a maid next to her.
The maid whispered, âMs. Colon, donât look at me like that. I⦠Iâm not a dogâ¦â
âShut up!â Livia pursed her lips and shot her a cold glance.
Robin shook his head. âAlright, you lead the way. I donât like people watching me like a wolf watching its prey.â
Livia rolled her eyes and walked into the elevator first.
She cursed in her heart, âDamn you. Iâm not a wolf.
I will make you pay a price when I get the chance.â
Livia put on a stern face and was silent. She didnât look back at Robin again.
Livia did an aboutâface on Robin. She used to be very nice to Robin when they were at the Riding and Shooting Recreation Center.
Robin shook his head.
He felt that he couldnât stand this hypocritical woman.
Robin thought Livia was interested in him. Now she was pretending to

be cold.
Livia stole a glance at him.
She met Robinâs eyes, blushed, and turned her head away from his aggressive eyes.
Livia thought, âDamn Robin. You were looking at me secretly. What are you up to?
Men are all the same.
Look at yourself! Youâre a lecher like them.
Is Ms. Decker mad or something? Why did she insist on inviting you?â
Soon they arrived on the top floor.
Two female bodyguards stopped them right after they were out of the elevator.
âWait! Youâre not allowed to take weapons of any kind. Weâll keep it for you.â
Robin paused and was displeased.
âMs. Decker invited me. This is not the way to treat a guest.â
Livia said coldly, âThis is one of the rules here. Guests are not allowed to take weapons inside her private meeting room, no matter how distinguished they are.
âThis has been the way for a long time.â
Robin shrugged and questioned indifferently, âSeriously?
âIâll do it my own way. I wonât cave into othersâ rules.â

âYour way? Forget it. Itâs Ms. Deckerâs place. You must do it her way.â
Livia was getting impatient.
She added, âMs. Decker sent me to fetch you, but that didnât mean anything. Know your place.
âThere are countless people in the city or even in the country dying to come here, you know.
âShe condescended to invite you, which makes you the luckiest man on this planet. Hand over your weapon and shut up!â
âFine, Iâm leaving!â With that, Robin turned around and walked to the elevator.
Livia and the bodyguards were stunned.
Robin didnât hesitate at all.
He reached the elevator and pushed the button.
His behavior seemed to suggest that he didnât want to waste one second here.
Livia was confused.
She cursed in her heart, âScumbag!
Canât you act like a gentleman?
Ms. Decker invited you. Can you just be humble?â
But soon Livia changed her mind.
If Robin left, Cecilia would blame her.
Livia didnât understand. Robin wouldnât get a second chance if he

walked away.
People in Hallcester competed to get invited by Cecilia.
Such an opportunity was worthy of a fortune and years of waiting. Even tough requirements wouldnât discourage them.
But Robin just walked away!
Livia thought, âF***! Whatâs wrong with this Robin?
How could he let the chance slip through his fingers?â
After traveling with Cecilia for so many years, Livia had met a lot of people.
But none of them was like Robin.
Robin was too arrogant!
Livia cursed in her heart, âYou piece of shit! Who do you think you
are?
You are just like one of Karinaâs bodyguards!
How dare you defy Ms. Decker?
This is ridiculous!â
As Livia watched Robin leave, she was ready to explode with anger!
At this time, the maid whispered to Livia, âLivia, go chase him, otherwise, Ms. Decker will blame you for that.â
The reminder made Livia feel worse. She snapped, âYou donât get to tell me what to do!
âI know what to do.

âMr. Bruce, wait!â
Livia started running after Robin.
