The Velmont Arch Exhibition Center is the onlyrge–scale multifunctional exhibition venue in Centraline.
It stands in the “Velmont Arch” area, positioned in Centraline’s southern 15th district.
Robin apanied Shirley to the Velmont Arch Exhibition Center.
Even when the car halted, Shirley clung to him like a kitten, unwilling to let go, her eyes remaining shut.
Robin handed over an additional hundred dors.
Understanding the gesture, the taxi driver stepped out, allowing their moment to linger undisturbed.
His fingers yed with her silky hair, gliding over her delicate shoulders, inhaling the intoxicating fragrance that belonged only to her.
The ruthless and ice–cold warrior, Divine Drakebane, was now lost in this moment.
Such warmth, such sweetness<b>, </b>such passion.
The evening breeze carried whispers of romance, turning this fleeting moment into a longing impossible to escape.

Under the dim glow, Shirley’s enchanting face captivated Robin. He leaned in and kissed her forehead gently.
Hershes remained closed, yet the faint curve of her lips revealed her secret joy.
She wanted to linger in thisforting embrace, letting the man she adored explore her world without restraint.
“You little fox, quite cunning, aren’t you?” Robin teased, biting her ear and tickling her most ticklish spot.
A burst ofughter rang through the square. “Hehe… of course, I am! I’ve spent a thousand years perfecting my charm just to seduce you!” Shirley giggled.
She wrapped her arms around Robin’s neck, pressing her lips passionately against his.
Ring, ring, ring! The jarring sound of a phone once again shattered their romantic moment.
“Shirley, have you arrived? We’ve been waiting at the exhibition center for ages,” Kaiya’s impatient voice came through the line.
“Oh, I’m here,” Shirley replied with an awkward smile, quickly fixing her disheveled clothes, smoothing her

Robin apanied her to the entrance of the exhibition center.
“Shirley, over here!” Kaiya and Renata waved as they walked up.
The moment their eyesnded on Robin, they froze for a second.
“Wait, we think we saw you on the ne. Did you just <i>fly </i>in from Sogas?”
Robin’s lips curled slightly. “You must be mistaken.”

“Oh? Then, are you two together?” Renata asked, her gaze flickering with curiosity and a hint of flirtation.
<i>What </i><i>a </i><i>strikinglyhandsome </i>man.
Robin chuckled. “I’m Shirley’s fiancé.”
Kaiya and Renata were momentarily speechless.
They hadn’t expected Shirley to show up with her fiancé.
Almost instinctively, their eyes darted to Sylvan, who stood nearby.
This wasn’t exactly an ideal situation to go through with their malicious scheme against Shirley.
Sylvan merely shrugged and offered a polite smile. “Ms. Dunn, it’s been a while.
“It’s been a long time since west met at Huffurd. There were so many moments when I wanted to invite you to this romantic city for dinner, but my schedule was always packed, and I never found the right moment. I truly regret that.
“But now that you’re here, I feel incredibly happy. Do you still remember? Back in our university days, I was relentless in my pursuit of you.”
Shirley offered a subtle smile. “Sylvan, let me introduce you. This is my fiancé, Robin Ramsey.”
Sylvan froze for a brief second before extending his hand in greeting.
Robin, instead of shaking hands, gently tucked a loose strand of Shirley’s hair behind her ear, letting the breeze settle.
Kaiya and Renata were clearly displeased.
Sylvan, however, simply chuckled and withdrew his hand. “Alright, let’s head inside. I wonder if my artwork will stir Ms. Dunn’s heart.”
Kaiya and Renata exchanged a nce, immediately stepping forward to nk Shirley as they made their way toward the exhibition center.
Shirley frowned and tried to pull away from them. “Let go. My fiancé is right behind me.”
Robin, fully aware of their intentions, gave her a reassuring nod. “Go ahead with your friends. I need to take a quick call. I’ll join you soon.”
“But…” Shirley hesitated.
Robin shed a calm smile. “It’s fine. Shirley. I’ll catch up in no time. Trust me.”

Kaiya and Renata took hold of her arms–no, to be precise, they were practically carrying her as they stepped through the grand entrance of Velmont Arch.
As they disappeared inside, a dangerous glint flickered in Robin’s eyes.
“Follow Shirley inside!”
A blue–d guard slipped through the Velmont Arch, moving stealthily in pursuit.
Earlier, Robin had discreetly sent an inquiry to the Dark Web to investigate the Athroods.
For years, the Athroods had deep ties to the Dark Night Alliance.
All their businesess were part of the Dark Night Alliance’s globalwork, meticulouslyid out in the early
years.
At its core, their rise to power had been built upon the influence of the Dark Night Alliance.
As Shirley stepped into the exhibition center, Robin’s phone buzzed. It was Reynold Frost, a military officer of Centraline.
After the battle on Qacalisle Ind, he had grown to admire Robin’s capabilities.
Not only Robin was themander–in–chief of one of the twenty elite squads within the Star Troopers, but he also held a high–ranking general position in the Thalrex Order.
Under that order, Reynold now served directly under Robin’smand.
“Commander–in–chief Ramsey, I’ve been informed you’ve arrived at Centraline. I’lle right away to wee you properly.”
Robin replied coldly, “Reynold, your appearance here today may not be advisable.”
A slight chuckle came from the other end. “And why is that? Is there anyone in Centraline who would dare turn me away?”
Robin’s tone remained cold. “It’s not about rejection. It’s about sparing you unnecessary trouble.
“Because tonight, I will destroy the Athroods.
“If you’re involved, it could causeplications.
“Since you’ve called, take this opportunity to ry a message to your relevant departments and higher–ups.
“Tell them this. Stay out of my way. If anyone dares to hinder me from wiping out the Athroods, I won’t hesitate to bring this entire country to ruin just to see them fall.
“Tonight, no force in this world can prevent me from carrying out their execution!
“For the woman I love, there is no limit to what I will do!”
On the other side of the call, Reynold felt a shiver run down his spine.
The words of Divine Drakebane were never to be ignored!

Without a second thought, Reynold responded at once, “Commander Ramsey, whatever you wish to eliminate, I will back youpletely! I’ll notify the top officials right away.
“No matter what choice you make, my Imperion Guards will follow your lead without question!
“I will takemand of the Imperion Guards and secure the perimeter around the Velmont Arch Exhibition Center immediately.
“When the momentes for action, I promise that no one will dare interfere with Commander Ramsey’s ns.”
Robin spoke calmly, “Good. Otherwise, it would be unfortunate for this beautiful city.”
Once the call ended, Reynold realized his back was drenched in cold sweat.
Without dy, he reported the situation to the higher–ups, grabbed the special authority token, and led the Imperion Guards to gather at the Velmont Arch Exhibition Center.
