Eric's hands clenched into fists as he listened to Robin's mocking words. The anger in him was reaching a boiling point, and he looked ready to strike.
His fist tightened, and he took a step forward, but just then, Leo appeared, stepping in between Eric and Robin. Little away stood his girlfriend, Susan, who watched the scene with concern.
Leo quickly grabbed Eric's wrist, stopping him mid-swing.
Eric's eyes, blazing with fury, locked onto Robin, but before he could lash out, Adam spoke up, cutting through the tension with an icy tone. "Are you out of your mind, Robin?" Adam's voice was steady but fierce, his masked face giving him an intimidating air. "If you're so desperate to pick a fight, then take your shot. But why provoke Eric like this?"
Robin sneered, a smug smirk spreading across his face. "Oh, look at this! Even this loser has found some courage now that his friends are here," he taunted, his voice dripping with disdain.
