The President's Chapter 159 – Robin, I’m sorry

Chapter 159: Chapter 159 – Robin, I’m sorry

Earlier

Zayla woke up to her phone ringing. She felt a little more groggy than usual but seeing it was her father, she soon answered after recalling everything Robin said to her last night including the villa.

She was smiling like a fool, feeling like she won after all. In the end, Robin was hers for real and was even going to take the villa from Sabrina and give it to her.

She was just disappointed to have fallen asleep before seducing him to sleep with her but since he has shown a change in making things right between them, she was certain that that would happen tonight.

"Hello,"

"Zayla, what the fuck is wrong with Robin?"

Her father’s yell caused every fantasy to disappear from her mind, as she was loaded with confusion and anxiety.

"Dad, what are you talking about?"

She tried to stay calm but her father’s loud and resounding voice caused her to panic.

"All my investors are calling

at the sa ti for repaynt and threatening to get

arrested if I don’t pay them in a week.".

"They said that Robin would do nothing and if they sent

behind bars, no one would be able to get

out."

Kennedy was furious for this to be happening since he had no intention of paying them back because his company already went bankrupt. Zayla was equally confused.

There must be sothing wrong sowhere because from what Robin said, things were supposed to change between them.

"That’s not true. Robin apologized to

last night for getting upset over the half a million I withdrew from the account he assigned to

and the supposed baby’s expenses. He said we were going to have a new start. We even had dinner together for the first ti."

Her father was happy to hear about this change of developnt and was filled with renewed hope. Perhaps there was indeed sothing wrong sowhere and he would wait for Zayla to resolve it.

"Then you better get

out of this ss."

"No worries. I will call you back," Zayla assured him with certainty.

Zayla hung up and called Robin on the phone. For a zillion tis, the man refused to answer her calls, which was frustrating after all they talked about last night and his gentleness towards her.

It was just that he looked tired but aside from that, everything was fine. so told the driver to send her to his office.

Since it was Robin’s office, the driver did not see anything wrong and did as told but reaching there, Robin was not in the office as Zayla expected, and began to wonder where he must have gone so early in the morning.

The secretary had confird that he left before she arrived and though she heard people inside, Aria refused to allow her in.

Aria wanted to make sure that not just her boss’s inner room but also his office was affected by the change before he arrives, so as not to incur his anger.

Anyti she arrived at the office to et an official email when her boss was not around, then it ant that he wanted things done before his arrival.

Zayla decided to wait at the reception for whoever was going to co out of the office and a woman did with two other girls, making her furious, as Aria would not tell her who the won were.

After they left, the secretary went inside and ca out but would still not let Zayla in. While she was still waiting at the reception, Robin walked in, aning he had indeed not been in the office before it clicked with Zayla that he must have been with Sabrina.

The thought of it drove her crazy, she lost her mind. How could Robin want to smoothen things with her and still have his ex-wife as a rump? He even ignored her calls. How disrespectful of him?

"Robin, why did you not answer my calls? Last night, you said we should start afresh and you changed again this morning. How could you even run a company when you can’t keep your word?"

Robin lost his resolve and before he knew it, his palms t Zayla’s cheek very hard, she felt more pain than she did when Devin slapped her.

Her eyes glistened with tears, as shock spread through her body.

"Robin, you hit ?"

Zayla was so pitiful, looking like an innocent lamb but Robin’s eyes were red with fury and there was no regret in it. Zayla trembled at how he glared at her with hate before spitting,

"This is the last ti you address

with disrespect."

Aria almost burst into laughter but had to control it to not offend her boss. Robin walked into his office soon after and Zayla’s confidence instantly disappeared, she turned into a lamb and followed him.

With her father’s debts after him, Zayla knew to not ss this up and spoke with humility,

"Robin, please, I’m sorry."

Robin’s cold glare made her cower. She thought the worst she ever saw of him was that night in the villa when he had the argunt with Sabrina before the divorce but this Robin was worse than that, she wondered exactly what happened after she fell asleep.

"What do you want?"

Zayla put on her acting mask since she needed his help and smiled flirtatiously. She went to hug him but he stopped her before she reached his desk. The distance between them was so wide.

"Stop there and tell , what do you want?"

Zayla was trembling like a mouse and the words could barely co out of her mouth.

"Robin, last night..."

"I’m very busy and I have a eting in a few minutes. Will you get straight to the point?"

Robin’s behavior was so strange, Zayla was sure that he would not treat even his enemies like that so why was he doing this to her?

Besides, he said that the money belonged to both of them so that should be good right?

Her confidence grew and she put her problems on the table,

"Robin, my father said the investors are after him. What happened? They gave him two years before but have suddenly changed their minds."

"The investors are businessn. If they need their money to invest, then there is nothing I can do about it now so GET OUT!" He roared, and Zayla paled imdiately.
