The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 486

On the other hand, Serena was utterly shocked to see Lord Lex slapping himself while apologizing profusely to Alex. Who exactly was this man? “What are you doing, Lord Lex?” Alex frowned and looked at Lord Lex, who was weak-willed. “You are Waltz’s foster father, which means that we are a family. Don’t do this anymore, otherwise Waltz will get mad at me.” Having said that, Lord Lex also laughed. He was laughing heartily! He thought, ‘It was the wisest decision to send Waltz to master’s side.’ “What do you say, Miss Wai? I’m giving you the final chance, reduce your profit margin by 30% and cede it to Belle Blossom. If you agree to do so, I will treat you right now and you will recover on the same day. If you disagree to do so, I will turn around and leave, you will never see me again,” Alex told Serena in an indifferent tone. Serena shouted, “If we ever lower our profit margin by 30%, it would be equivalent to giving all the earned profits to Hailey Lawson! Not only will we not be able to make a profit of a single penny, but we will also incur losses by hearing transportation costs! Do you think this is possible?” Alex said, “Just take it as paying the price for the continuation of your life. You have ten seconds to consider, your life and death are just within a hair’s breadth… If I am not mistaken, pus starts oozing out of your belly button as we speak, right? Looks like my estimation earlier was too conservative, you might not live past tomorrow.” “Five, four, three, two…” “I agree! I agree!” Serena screamed hysterically. Alex broke into a faint smile and immediately dialed Hailey’s number. “Hailey, go ahead and prepare a contract to be signed with Arles Cosmetics. Miss Wai has agreed to cede 30% of their profit margin to Belle Blossom. I’ll be waiting for you here at Hell’s Angels.” Hailey took a long time to calm down after receiving the call. However, soon after she had her secretary prepared the contract and went straight to Hell’s Angels. Half an hour later, Serena put her signature on the contract and said to Alex with a long face, “Can we proceed with the treatment now?” Alex nodded and smiled as he said, “Of course, since Miss Wai is so sincere, I’m a person who keeps my promises too! By the way, can I ask something, Lord Lex? What is your relationship with Miss Wai from Hong Kong?” Lord Lex was obviously embarrassed. Finally, he said, albeit in an embarrassed tone, “Actually, I didn’t know her previously but her assistant secretary came to California a while ago. She and I… Had an ill-fated relationship.” With that, Alex understood the gist of it. After asking Lord Lex for an empty room, both Alex and Serena entered the room. He went straight to the point and said, “Miss Wai, I can treat your condition within a minute.” Serena was startled. “That fast? Are you lying to me?” Alex smiled coldly. “Are the black spots on your stomach deception as well? Look, I will be frank with you, you are pregnant with a fetus, a haunting fetus to be exact. Unfortunately, it’s not a happy event to be celebrated. Once the haunting fetus is born, you will die of an excruciating death with a ruptured stomach. Looking at how things are, this little thing will be born tonight.” “Ah!” After listening to his words, Serena got goosebumps all over her body as her face instantly turned pale as a sheet of paper. She fell and kneeled before Alex with a thud. “Save me, Doctor Rockefeller, you must save me!” Alex said, “Don’t worry, I already said, once you have signed the contract, I’ll definitely save you… But, I also said earlier, I can remove your haunting fetus within a minute. It may treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Most importantly, the problem lies within yourself.” “What should I do?” Serena hastily asked. Alex raised the corner of his month. “It’s not really difficult. Miss Wai, you are still single, right? Hurry and find a man to get married, that will be no more problem after that.” “This… What does this have got to do with my marital status?” Serena was puzzled. Alex said, “Of course there is. Once you’re married, you won’t be needing this.”… He suddenly stepped forward and opened Serena’s purse and took out an item from within. Seeing the object in question, Serena trembled and flushed. She was on the verge of collapse.
