Claire Assex was now in a mood that could be described as extremely depressed.
There was an old saying that one must always suffer for one’s own mistakes.
As a woman who was obsessed with money, Claire had recently succeeded in driving her son-in-law away. After that, she realized that he was actually a wealthy person who was making more and more money, and that such attractive sums of money had nothing to do with her.
But all that money should have belonged to her!
She wondered if she would wake up laughing from her dreams if she had so much money.
But…
“Dorothy, have you… Have you been in touch with Alex recently?” Claire asked.
“We’ve already divorced. Why would we still keep in touch?” Dorothy raised her brows and glanced at her mother while she spoke.
“Oh, I’m just… I’m just worried about you. You’re not young anymore, and you got divorced. What I mean is, if you really can’t stop thinking about him, you can go and look for him. I won’t be against it anymore.” Claire didn’t mind occasion ally stooping low to become a rich woman.
“Have you forgotten about where the scar on your face came from?” Dorothy asked.
“Er… This… This was an accident. Which rich person wouldn’t attract attention from others? We’ll just have to get a few bodyguards. Look at those celebrities who have seven or eight bodyguards around them all the time. Since Alex is so rich, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to hire a dozen or so bodyguards, right?” Claire asked.
Dorothy shook her head without saying anything.
When Claire saw how her daughter responded, she felt truly remorseful. “Dorothy, how’s Assex Construction doing? Did you make any money? You invested so much money in the company previously. Has there been any returns?”
“It’s not too bad. It’s an entire process. Don’t be in a hurry,” Dorothy said.
“How can I not be in a hurry? We’re running out of money. Can you give me a few hundred thousand dollars? I want to buy the Lush Scar Removal Cream,” Claire said.
She did use a little of it last time and it was indeed effective.
Dorothy pursed her lips. “Alex gave you a bottle last time, but you threw it away. Who can you blame? I’ll get you another bottle in a few days. I don’t have any money right now. There’s a bunch of bills I need to pay for Assex Construction.”
Hearing this, Claire felt even more bitter and remorseful.

At the same time, in California’s Rockefeller family, the folks weren’t doing too well.
Grandpa Rockefeller had passed away, and Spark Rockefeller died too. The saddest thing was that even John Rockefeller had slipped into a coma. He now lay on the bed and was unable to move. He couldn’t deal with any business, and even needed to be taken care of by other people.
Meanwhile, without John’s dominant control, Rockefeller Group started to waver.
Noah Rockefeller, who had temporarily taken over his position, wasn’t capable enough to persuade everyone. He made several strategic mistakes consecutively, and he had long lost the charisma to lead.
Shareholders of the company were beginning to fight for power, and nobody was willing to give in to each other.
In fact, fights even broke out during the shareholders’ meeting. They had differing opinions, and some were already sneakily selling off their shares. The biggest concern was that if Rockefeller Group crumbled, its share price would plummet. When the time came, these people would have nobody to cry to.
Right then in Rockefeller Manor, the primary members of the Rockefeller family were gathered for an important family meeting.
The person who spoke up was Noah’s eldest daughter, Carol Rockefeller.
“The appearance of Lush Cosmetics’ acne cream in California has already severely impacted our market share. This is also because they are mainly focusing on high-end products. Once they lay a firm foundation, we’ll suffer even greater losses.”
