"What the- Vera huffed, snatching the last big fried chicken from Robin's plate and taking a big bite.

"That's mine! Robin exclaimed as he watched her steal his fried chicken. He retaliated by grabbing a fried chicken from her plate, plus a fried potato, for good measure.

"That's mine!" Vera exclaimed, momentarily dazed. "Why are you being so stingy?"

"Who told you to steal my fried chicken?" Robin bit into his portion with gusto.

Rosalie, Piper, and Connor passed by and witnessed the scene.

Rosalie burst out laughing. "Haha!"

Vera paused, glaring at Robin, muttering. "You guys, fighting over a fried chicken!"

Rosalie rushed to the counter and ordered a fried chicken for each of them.

Piper glared at Robin from a distance, rolling her eyes. "Seriously? He's fighting a girl over a fried chicken?"

At their table nearby, Rosalie sat with Piper and Connor Robin and Vera waved at Rosalie, thanking her for the fried chicken.

Piper shot Rosalie a disapproving look. "Are you stupid? Why are you treating them? You're still seeking job: why are you so generous?

Rosalie stuck out her tongue. "I owe him for saving me this morning. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what would've happened."

"That man you're talking about-just look at him! Is that really the kind of hero who stands up for others? He's fighting with a woman over a fried chicken; what kind of future does he have?"

Piper shot Robin a disdainful glance. "Besides, that whole scene this morning might have been a show he put on himself! You fool!"

Rosalie whispered, "No way, Piper. He isn't as pathetic as you think."

"What's going on?" Connor asked, looking puzzled. "What are you guys talking about?"

Piper recounted the story of Rosalie buying youtiao that morning, scoffing, 'Connor, tell me, what kind of future can a man have if he's willing to wait in line for over ten minutes just for a few bucks' worth of doughnut?" Connor nodded along. "A guy who would queue for a cheap breakfast doesn't seem that ambitious." Rosalie looked uncertain. "But what if they're dating? Isn't it normal to tease each other?

"Plus, he really did save me this morning. How could he possibly stage that?" she defended.

Piper let out a cold smile. "Of course, he wouldn't go through all that trouble for someone like you." "Didn't I tell you? He's definitely trying to get close to you to catch my attention!

Piper shook her head "Common, you've only been at the hum Group for half a year, but you've drostly become the deputy team leader in the sales departmer That's impressive! Connor had admired Piper throughout his time at school.

Now that Piper had reached out to him regarding a potion at the Eastvale Development Company under the Dunn Group, he was more than willing to help.

"It's nothing special. Thanks to my work performance might be promoted to team leader of the sales

group soon."

Connor said excitedly. "The team leader told me that on the first day the development company is

nounced, I might even get to meet the president!"

"Oh, Connor, you're amazing!" Rosalie exclaimed.

"I'm just a bit slow; I'm not sure if I can even get into a big company like the Dunn Group.

Talmost ran late for my interview today.

"I could tell the interviewer was unhappy, so I'm afraid I won't get to work with you, Connor.

Luckily, Piper helped me out a lot with the interviewer, and that's how my resume got accepted."

Piper shot her a sideways glance. "Seriously, you're so careless with everything! How could you delay such an important thing? Can't you just come for the interview before grabbing breakfast? Honestly Connor chuckled. "It's okay; when the time comes, I'll talk to the HR interviewer and tell them you're my friend. That should work,"

Rosalie beamed. "Connor, what do you like to cat? I'll treat you today!"

"Uh?" Connor stammered. "Let's split the bill; that's how it's done nowadays."

"That's too embarrassing, Connor! I really want to treat you!" Rosalie insisted.

"Rosalie, don't do that! Just follow what he said and split the bill, Piper said with a hint of disdain in her eyes, though she kept a smile on her face.

In her opinion, since Connor liked her so much, he should definitely be the one treating her. Besides, he was the only man there and the only one already earning a salary!

Rosalie reluctantly agreed.

Robin and Vera walked by after finishing their lunch.

"Rosalie, thanks for the fried chicken! Enjoy your meal! Vera greeted them.

Rosalie quickly stood up with a smile. "Robin, if I get the chance, I'll treat you to a meal!"

Robin smiled back. "How did your interview at the Dunn Group go

"Robin, can I get your contact information?"

Before Robin could respond. Vera interjected. "His name is Robin Ramsey, Add for on Whey want give you his number.

"Don't worry; if you really want to join the Dunns, it'll be just a word from Polan

Robin quickly interrupted, "Don't listen to her nonsense: let's go

"Oh, you're also with the Dunns? Do you know anyone in HR? Hehe Connor semarked, sizing up Rope

"I've heard you're quite capable; you must be from the security department

""Uh... Robin didn't want to answer that question.

The disdain in Connor and Piper's eyes grew stronger. A mere security guard thought be could de Rosalie's employment issue?

"Ah, I'm the deputy of the sales group at the Dunn Group- Before Connor could finish his meme Robin had already pulled Vera toward the cashier.

Connor shook his head. "Haha, just like lower-class people to have a big temper, that's true! Haba

Piper glanced at Robin's retreating figure, shaking her head and sneering, "He's afraid of saving too much and embarrassing himself in front of me. People like that are just ridiculous "Let's stop talking about him and order instead."

"Excuse me, is Ms. Rosalie Grant here?" A waiter asked, holding a special king crab meal.

"Uh? I am" Rosalie replied nervously.

"Hello, Ms. Grant, Mr. Robin Ramsey ordered lunch for you. The bill has been paid; please enjoy

The three of them stared at the exclusive meal worth 2,800 dollars, completely stunned.

Rosalie looked at the single-serving king crab set meal in front of her, trembling with nerves

"Uh, are you sure you didn't get this wrong? This is the host expensive set on the menu.

The young waitress smiled and said, "Ms. Grant, you're table number seven, right?"

"Yes," Rosalie nodded, double-checking her table number.

"Then it's all good. Mr. Ramsey has already paid, so please enjoy your meal, the waitress said respectfully.

She then bowed and handed Rosalie a VIP card.

"Ms. Grant, this is our restaurant's VIP card. Please accept it...

"With this card, you can enjoy one free meal every weekend.

"Additionally, we'll set aside a special table for you. So whenever you visit, there will always be a place for

you

Enjoy your meal, Ms. Grant."

After the waitress left, Rosalie was still in shock.

A 2800 king crab set meal, a VIP card for free meals every weekend and a reserved table!

What kind of treatment was this?

For someone like Rosalie, who came from a humble background, she had never experienced such luxury.

Beside her, Piper and Connor were equally astonished,

At that moment, Robin's gesture made him seem like a wealthy heir.

"Ha, he really knows how to show off, huh?" Connor chuckled awkwardly, his face burning as he looked at the king crab set in front of Rosalie.

Piper's eyes blazed with anger.

"Ugh! Men like that are disgusting!"

Rosalie quickly said, "Piper, don't be mad. Let's share this meal together."

"Ha, I wouldn't touch that disgusting stuff!"

Piper said, "Connor, Rosalie, can't you see?

"Men like Robin do this just to provoke me, to get my attention.

"He'll never understand that I won't be swayed by his flashy 'big spender' act.

"Superficial!

"He's probably going to eat instant noodles for a month

Rosalie shook her head "Piper, come on. I don't think Robin is like that. He probably just felt bad for us after I ordered a fried chicken for them"

Piper let out a cold laugh. "You really need to think this through!"

"Rosalie, do you really think he'd spend 2800 yum on king crab just because you ordered a fried chicken for him! That makes no sense!

"It's clear he's just trying to get a rise out of me!

"Earlier, when Connor said he was in a low position at the Dunns, Robin immediately turned and left..

"His behavior shows he feels insecure. He doesn't want to admit his lowly position before me.

"Then he goes and orders a king crab set meal, trying to catch my attention and leave a good impression.

"Men like that are really repulsive!"

Connor paused for a moment.

Tie was surprised by what Piper had said, but he nodded in agreement.

Rosalie was completely stunned.

She just couldn't understand why Piper had such a strong prejudice against Robin.

"Piper, do you think you're reading too much into this

"I don't think he even knows you."

Piper huffed. "I've seen plenty of men like him! Who knows, he might have been planning this all along."

"Piper, the girl with Robin, seems really pretty and classy."

Rosalie almost mentioned that Vera was more attractive than Piper, but she held her tongue.

Piper shook her head, a look of disdain in her eyes.

"That girl? Ha! She was out shopping, wearing those tacky shoes. What kind of status do you think she has?

"She's just a sloppy, bottom-tier girl!

"Only someone like that would hang around a guy like Robin."

After taking a phone call, Connor said, "Piper, Rosalie, let's not eat here. I'll take you to the Four Seas Entertainment Bar across the street.

I'll also introduce you to some friends in the circle."

Rosalie glanced at the king crab set in front of her and said apologetically, "Connor, I think I'll pass. I'm not really used to that kind of bar environment."
