Chapter 901 Robin dropped his gaze to the knife at his throat, a smirk playing on his lips.
âSo you wanna know, huh?â
He chuckled as if he knew Bernard wouldnât really hurt him. There was a touch of sass in his grin.
âWell, I ainât spillin Knife in hand, Bernard stared at Robinâs raised eyebrows. His initially emotionless eyes gradually turned icy âYou donât have to tell me â
As his words fell, the knife slowly slid down to his chest. Feeling his heart pounding faster, the knife pointed straight at the heart.
âBut your heart, might just get ripped out.â
Robin was fully aware that if Bernard truly decided to strike, it would be a hell of a showdown. But he wasnât scared one bit.
âIf you donât want your kin to end up like the Pine family, go on, give it a shot.â
He was the leader of the Spencer family. If Bernard actually killed him, the Spencers might end up on the Laurence familyâs shit list just like the Pines.
Even with all the tricks up Bernardâs sleeve, he wouldnât mess with his own bloodline, right?
Thatâs what Robin thought. He believed Bernard would consider his descendants.
However, without any hesitation, Bernard gripped the knife handle lighter, and plunged it straight in.
Feeling his heart suddenly stop beating, Robinâs face turned ashen within seconds.
Looking up at Bernard in disbelief, he stammered. âYou...â
Bernard pulled out the knife, pressing the blade against his lips, âDo you know why you can never beat me?â
Robin clutched his bleeding chest, enduring the pain with a cold laugh. âBecause Iâm not ruthless enough, right?â

ï¤Chapter 1765 (END)
Bernard pulled out a wet wipe, slowly wiping off the bloodâstained blade, âNot that youâre not ruthless, just not as ruthless as me!
He remembered Mr. Penrod telling him as a kid, as a future leader, he had to be more ruthless than anyone, or else heâd be the one to bite the dust.
Bernard never forgot that and never showed mercy when dealing with enemies.
Robin always aspired to stand on equal footing with him, but alas, heâd always been a coddled child, untested by lifeâs harshest trials. How could one who had never traversed darkness truly embody ruthlessness?
Robinâs gaze lowered to his chest, spotting the knife that had narrowly missed his heart, prompting another burst of laughter, âIf you truly had a ruthless streak, you wouldnât have stayed your hand just now.â
Bernard also permitted a faint smile, âYou still havenât answered my question, what exactly does your mother seek from my wife?â
Robinâs eyes widened imperceptibly. Despite the shock, he endeavored to maintain his composure, âShe wishes to meet her sisterâs child, one final timeâ
Despite his best efforts to cloak his surprise, Bernard discerned the subtle shift in his gaze. It appeared Robin was taken aback by Bernardâs knowledge of his motherâs quest for Eleanor.
Toying with the petite knife in his grip, Bernard swiveled to face Robin, a smirk etched on his face, âYour father was originally betrothed to your motherâs sister. Surely, youâd be more informed about how your mother ended up with your father, right?â
Hearing this, Robinâs eyebrows furrowed slightly. âWhat the hell are you on about?â
There was a trace of confusion in his eyes, and it didnât look like an act. Did Robin really not know about the history of his familyâs previous generation?
