After getting out of the car, Riccardo and Lillian wanted to approach Amanda. However, the latter suddenly turned around, entering her store again.
"Amanda, wait!" Riccardo wanted to chase, but he was stopped by the security who was Robin.
"I'm sorry sir, but anyone other than retail associate and management are prohibited from entering this store before it is officially opened," said the man.
"You? Do you know I'm the big boss here?" Riccardo was instantly enraged at Robin's words.
However, when he saw the man's face, he was stunned.
"R-Robin? Is this you?" He said spontaneously.
Of course,she knew Robin because Amanda herself knew the mercenary group from her father.
"Yes, here I am working for someone you'd better not offend, so you'd better stay standing here," Robin replied.
"What?" Riccardo's face showed confusion, like he couldn't believe his own ears.
"Hey, you, is that girl the person you're referring to?" Lillian approached and asked.
She herself wasn't sure what was going on, but as far as she knew this was a store bought using money belonging to her boyfriend's company.
"No, she's not," Robin replied.
"Robin, what do you mean, is this not the store my daughter opened?" Riccardo gave Robin a doubtful look.
The thing was that he knew Robin very well, even respected him very much. Hence, he became cautious because of Robin's expression when he talked about that person.
"Interesting, are you talking about Arthur?" Anna suddenly approached and asked.
She had been standing in a corner, but Robin's words caught her attention.
Robin looked at her and then nodded.
Seeing that, Anna wondered to herself: 'Dear Arthur, who exactly are you?
Of course, Riccardo knew who Arthur was because ever since his daughter got close to him, he had also been investigating him.
Lillian had also been about Arthur. After all, it was that man who got her into trouble and almost jailed.
She couldn't help but say in a snide tone, "what's with that nasty little boy? He may be the nephew of a congresswoman, but so what, he's just a little boy, I'll slap him if I see him again!"
The woman was certainly angry as she remembered about Arthur.
Plus, she didn't really take Robin's words seriously. Unlike Riccardo, she didn't know anything about Robin.
She thought he was just security who overestimated his boss.
And she also didn't know that her words had offended Robin.
The man's eyes quickly became very cold.
"Say that again and I'll make sure you can't take another step from where you're standing now," he said, startling Lillian.
As a woman who even dared to snatch other people's men, Lillian should not have been easily intimidated, but when she heard Robin's cold voice, her heart immediately raced so fast that cold sweat broke out from her neck.
Riccardo didn't expect that Robin was threatening his woman, but even though he wanted to protest, he refrained. He even pulled Lillian's hand, signaling her not to speak just yet.
He scanned Robin's face again to see if he was playing around. Unfortunately, Robin did look so serious that he was unable to say anything.
He stared at the store again as if looking for Amanda, who was unfortunately nowhere to be seen.
'What the hell is going on?' In the end, he was still wondering.
Meanwhile, Amanda came to her room again, where Arthur and Isabel were.
"Dear!" She called Arthur dear even though Isabel was there.
However, Isabel just stayed silent with an indifferent expression, looking like she wasn't interested in teasing her.
Of course, Amanda's focus was now only on Arthur, so she didn't care about Isabel's lack of attention.
"Dear, did you see something?" She asked Arthur.
Currently, the latter was looking down, right at Riccardo, her father.
His eyes were narrowed and sometimes there was a light that flashed for a split second.
"Indeed, there is magic in your father's body," Arthur said calmly, but caused Amanda to take a deep breath.
The previously indifferent Isabel couldn't help but stare at Arthur. She asked, "what happened?"
She also looked down.
Actually she hadn't seen the moment Riccardo came in, so she was a little surprised when she saw him holding the hand of a woman who wasn't his wife.
She might not have a close friendship with him, but they still knew each other, so she knew quite a lot about his life.
"Lillian," she said again.
"Aunt, you know that woman too?" asked Arthur.
Amanda also looked at her in surprise because she herself did not know Lillian's origins.
As far as she knew, this woman suddenly appeared with her father.
"Yes, she once tried to contest the congressional election from England, but failed because she didn't get enough votes, and even went to court accusing her opponent of cheating," Isabel replied.
"Huh!" Hearing that, Amanda snorted softly.
"I'm not surprised she has such a scandalous past," she said before looking at Arthur again.
"Dear, can the magic in my father's body be removed?" She then asked Arthur.
"Sure, but that doesn't mean your father will instantly hate that woman. Although he fell in love due to the influence of magic, but the feeling is truly in his heart. Therefore, when the magic is removed from his body, he will still like that woman. It's just that afterwards he'll think more rationally, or even rethink whether it's the right relationship considering he already has a wife and two daughters." Arthur explained.
"That's enough as long as his brain is still there," Amanda replied.
"However, when are you going to remove the magic?"
"Let's just wait until everything here is finished. And by the way, have all the guests you invited arrived?"
"No, there are still some who haven't come, I also invited some professors who are experts in forestry and perfume. And some figures who like things like this."
Right after saying that, she pointed at a car that had just arrived.
"That's the car of a very successful investor, the richest one here and he really likes agarwood, he seems to be interested in my words," he said.
"Mr. Parker, what did you say to him?" asked Isabel, she also knew whose car it was.
"Just saying that he doesn't need to burn his agarwood anymore if he comes here," Amanda replied with a faint smile.
