?Chapter 788:
“I’m perfectly fine,” Robin grumbled. If he hadn’t just lost to Christina three times in a row, he’d feel even better.
“I’ll try,” Kurt said finally. “But no promises. Back when ine rose to fame, I tried to recruit him as our family’s private chef, but failed.”
“So he really is that elusive…” Robin mused. “Since even you couldn’t track him down, then he definitely wasn’t just some ordinary chef.” His eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint flickering in them. With the Miller family’s reach and resources, finding someone was usually a breeze. Anyone they couldn’t find had to be something special.
“Why do you suddenly want to learn how to cook?” Kurt asked.
“Because cooking’s Christina’s weak spot. I want to beat her at it.” Robin figured that if he couldn’t outdo her anywhere else, maybe he could at least one-up her in the kitchen.<fnb92e> ???s ??????? ?s ?????? ?? FιndNovel</fnb92e>
But Kurt saw it differently. In his mind, Robin wasn’t just trying to outmatch Christina in terms of cooking skills—he was trying to win her over. The fact that he was even searching for the legendary master chef just to master his skills said everything. Robin had finally figured it out: the way to a woman’s heart was through her stomach!
Kurt could barely contain his grin. He didn’t say a word about it, though. As a doting grandfather, he was all in. “Alright then! Leave it to me. I’ll dig through every connection I’ve got in Lorbridge to help you track down ine.”
“Thanks, Grandpa!” Robin said, beaming.
They chatted a bit more before ending the call.
Robin looked back out at the water. Everyone was having a st on the jet skis, carefree andughing. It was the perfect picture of fun—almost too perfect. The only ones missing from the picture were Dn and Elliott.
Robin’s eyes settled on Christina, and without meaning to, he smiled. But just as he was watching her, totally zoned in, something wild happened right before his eyes.

Not knowing whether it was because Ralphy’s jet ski had suddenly gone haywire or some other unexpected mishap, he made a sharp, unforeseen turn. Christina was speeding straight toward him, and it looked like a crash was imminent.
Everything unfolded in a blur. Robin barely had time to scramble to his feet. By the time his body kicked into motion and he bolted forward, Christina had already veered off sharply, sending a cascade of waves crashing into Ralphy’s path.
They narrowly avoided a full-blown collision, but the sudden swerve left no room for adjustment, forcing Christina into a dangerously tight turn that sent her jet ski flipping over.
As the spray settled and the water calmed, everyone saw the same rming sight—the jet ski was empty. Christina and Chloe had been flung into the water! In that instant, all movement froze, and Robin took off in blind panic. The sounds around him faded to nothing. All he could hear was his heart pounding like thunder in his ears. She had to be fine. With him here, she had to be okay! It was the first time Robin had ever felt this scared and powerless. His mind wentpletely nk, and dread tore through his chest like a wildfire.
“Christina!” Dn and Elliott yelled in unison as they dove into the water.
