The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 771

Alex was indeed walking along the hall outside the room. However, he wasn’t alone, there were two women next to him. One was Sharpay whereas the other was Hailey. Hailey found out that he was still in California. She decided to call him up to treat him to lunch, so they agreed to meet up at the salon. Hailey was smiling. “Brother, the scar removing cream that you invented is way too effective! I’ll bet that this product would be much more successful than the previous two. I just found some good customers who had scars to try it out and it’s already become quite a sensation online! I’ve received hundreds of texts from people trying to get their hands on that product!” Alex already knew that the development of the scar removing cream was a success since be last visited. That was why he decided to send some to City Salon. But, he never expected it to be this popular. Surprised, he said, “I thought the scar removing cream wouldn’t have that wide of a market.” Hailey shook her head. “That’s where you’re wrong. People get scars more than freckles. No, it’s not even just a possibility. Like, who wouldn’t get hurt once or twice in their whole life? Scars are inevitable! No matter the age, scars are likely to occur, so this cream could potentially be considered a necessity at this point! I have a scar too.” Alex asked, “Where?” Hailey’s eyes were filled with mischief. “On my thigh, want to see?” Alex was speechless. ‘Sharpay is literally next to us yet you’re still openly flirting?’ As expected, Sharpay took a glance at the two, suspicious. Suddenly, the door to one of the VIP rooms flung open, and Sharpay jumped in surprise. She turned towards it and noticed her aunt standing there. She suddenly froze in fear. ‘I don’t want Claire to know that Alex is the owner of this salon!’ Despite her actions, it appeared to be too late. “Aunt Claire? Why are you here? Did you come to look for me?” Sharpay was almost as tall as Claire, both around five foot four. Since Sharpay was wearing a pair of high heels, she currently stood slightly taller than Claire. She was hoping that she’d block her view, preventing her from seeing Alex. However, Claire had rushed out only because she had heard Alex’s voice. She pushed Sharpay aside forcefully and scolded. “Who said I’m here for you? Get lost, you shameless brat!” She then pointed at Alex. “How could you do this to me, Rockefeller?!” Claire’s words were slightly misleading. Anyone who didn’t know them personally would ’ve thought that Alex was her husband who had cheated behind her back. Alex had quite a scare. He didn’t expect Claire to pop up out of nowhere. Although he had gotten a divorce with Dorothy, it was still a fake divorce. So, this woman was still his mother-in-law in every way. Val and Eloise rushed out of the room as well. Val almost screamed when she noticed Alex and Hailey at the door. She immediately greeted them respectfully. “Welcome, Mr. Rockefeller! Welcome, Mrs. Carter!” On the other hand, Eloise’s eyes lit up when she saw Alex. Every woman had different beauty standards for men. When she saw a dashing young man, she reacted just like how any man would react when they see beautiful women. After hearing how Val addressed him, she became shocked. She realized that this young man was the owner of City Salon. She pulled Claire aside and lowered her voice. “Claire, what are you doing? Have you gone mad? That’s Mr. Rockefeller, the owner of this salon.”
