Chapter 902 Robin gritted his teeth, fighting the metallic taste of blood in his mouth, and retorted painfully at Bernard, âTor the record, it was Eleanorâs mother who pressured my dad into the engagement The woman my dadâs always been in love with is my mom!â
His parents, in their quest to save face in their marriage, had conveniently shifted the blame onto Vanya Pine Clever ploy, really No wonder their son turned out so ânaive...
Bernard didnât want to argue with Robin on this He just responded coldly. âLook up what the Pine family did back in the day yourselfâ
Was he suggesting his parents had lied to him? Impossible. His parents loved him, they would never deceive him.
Robin found himself cornered. Bernard leveled a frosty glare at him, âBy my estimate, youâve got roughly twenty minutes. Reveal why your mother is seeking Eleanor within that timeframe, and I might consider saving you.â
Despite his heart remaining unscathed, he risked succumbing to blood loss. Robin was no stranger to such perilous circumstances, having engaged in this deadly dance numerous times. He needed to think this through.
Shaking off his daze, Robin resolved to ponder his options, but he refrained from spilling the true motive to Bernard. Instead, he offered a compromise, âFine, take Eleanor and accompany me to G Country My mother merely wishes to meet her sisterâs offspring.â
Once they set foot in G Country, the Spencers domain, he could seize both Eleanor and Bernard in one fell swoop, settling the score for todayâs embarrassment Thankfully, Robin had preemptively swallowed a mood stabilizer before stepping out, enabling him to construct this escape plan while maintaining his composure.
His meticulously crafted plan nearly betrayed him. Bernard saw straight through his façade, âDo you genuinely expect me to believe you?â
His gaze flickered to his steadily bleeding wound Impatience creeping in, yet Robin willed himself to maintain his calm.
âMaybe like you said, my mom did something wrong to her sister and wants to apologize, or she wants to tell Eleanor a secret about her sister. Thatâs why she wants to see Eleanor one last timeâ
Robinâs explanation was more convincing than before. Bernard seemed almost swayed, but....

Bernard looked up at a paleâfaced Robin, âThereâs something about you... reminds me of myself.â
Robin thought he would either agree or refuse outright. He didnât expect him to say something like that.
Although Bernard seemed a bit off, Robin asked out of curiosity. âWhat part of me reminds you of yourself?â
Bernard gave a slow smile. âThe willingness to protect those you want to protect, even at the risk of your own life, without choosing betrayal.â
What did he mean by that?
Robin was completely baffled He looked at Bernard and said, âSometimes, I really think youâre nuts.â
Bernard lifted a finger, tapping on the car window, âGive him the hemostatic...â
The bodyguard waiting outside immediately turned around, got a bottle of hemostatic from another car, and handed it to Robin.
Robin accepted the medicine, puzzled again, âBernard, I really think youâre not just nuts, youâre seriously messed up.â
Robin thought to himself, âHe attacked me without asking for a reason, said some cryptic things, and now heâs giving me a hemostatic? Doesnât that prove heâs seriously messed up?â
