The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 996

Alex realized that she was stepping on him with great force. He grabbed onto her leg, which was wrapped in stockings, and tried moving it off him. After realizing his struggle was useless, he stopped and said, “Aunt, I believe in your power. Trash like that wouldn’t be able to handle a single slap from you! Five million just fell from the sky. Would you like it? I’ll just give it all to you! Consider it a gift from me!” Aunt Rockefeller took the bank card away and said, “No matter when or what, you must not betray me. I don’t like how that feels, got it?” “Yeah, got it.” After Alex’s promise, Aunt Rockefeller took her foot off of him. “Go back and fully absorb the power of this spiritual amethyst marrow! You could probably achieve Divine Transcendence with this!” She stood up straight and ruffled Alex’s hair, leaving immediately after waving to him. Deep in thought, Alex watched on as she walked away. ‘This aunt’s actions and emotions are kind of unstable. It’s like she’s just following her heart.’ Alex couldn’t put the finger on her personality; hence he didn’t tell her anything about the Holy Book and tomb raiding at the time. Looking at the spiritual amethyst marrow in his hand, he could tell that she didn’t have any bad intentions. The value of such marrow would most likely exceed the Holy book after all. *** In just a few moments, Alex left the hotel and rushed towards Dorothy-Alex Constructions with great speed. However, Alex was disappointed to see the empty office. Dorothy was nowhere to be found. He found Dorothy’s secretary, Jenny, and asked about his wife. Jenny replied. “I’m not sure where she went either. She doesn’t frequent the office as much anymore, handling most of the work to other employees… Hey Alex, I heard you, and Ms. Assex got a divorce, right? Maybe she couldn’t accept it and got upset.” Since Jenny and Alex were well acquainted, she wasn’t afraid to speak about such sensitive topics with him. “Really? Then what has she been working on lately?” “I don’t know! Oh right, a news story about her was trending today. Ms. Assex smashed a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost a while ago. Have you seen it? Everyone in the company couldn’t believe it too! How could Ms. Assex ever do such a thing? Alex, I think you should check up on her more. Your relationship with Ms. Assex shouldn’t have ended like this. All the older employees know that Ms. Assex loves you very, very deeply.” Alex nodded, a serious expression on his face. “Alright then. Jenny. if you ever notice something wrong with Dorothy, please call me in private.” “Huh? Wouldn’t that mean I’m betraying my boss?” Jenny was put in a difficult spot. Alex took a card out, a member card for City Salon, and handed it to her. Upon seeing it, Jenny gasped. “A diamond member card of City Salon?” Alex smiled. “Yep, it’s yours now.” Jenny giggled. “Thanks, Alex! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely inform you everything about Ms. Assex from now on.” Alex asked, “Are you not scared of betraying your boss anymore?” Jenny replied. “Our company is called Dorothy-Alex Constructions! So you’re a boss too. That doesn’t count!” “Smarty-pants! That will be all then. I’ll be off now!” Alex left the company immediately and decided to head to her villa to take a look Just then, Dorothy called him. “Darling, I heard that you’re looking for me?” “Where are you?” “I’m at home?” “I’ll be there in a few!” “Alright!” When Alex was rushing toward the Assex villa, Ronald’s broken arm surgery at First City Hospital had been completed. His parents had come by right after receiving the news. After seeing how badly their son was injured, his mother, Krystal Packwood’s expressions, turned cold. “Son, tell mom which god-d*mn b*stard beat you up like this? Mom will definitely seek revenge for you.” His father, Danial Johansson, was furious as well. “How dare they beat up my son? No matter who it is, I will definitely make them pay for what they’ve done! I’ll make them pay greatly!” Suddenly, three people walked into the ward. It was Timothy and the Duncan siblings. Timothy said, “Ronald, you would never guess who’s living in Maple Villa 8!”
