The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1142

They were carrying a few boxes respectfully. When Alex and Cheryl stopped walking, they also stopped at once and carefully waited. “Oh, we got delayed by an urgent matter!” Alex said with a smile, “Are you okay? You should get some rest soon!” Thea pursed her lips and said, “Hubert was very worried about you. Good for you, do you think it’s fine by saying a few simple words? What’s in these boxes?” Cheryl let out a grunt. If it weren’t for Alex to rescue Hubert, it would be hard to say whether he could come back safely! However, it was really a waste of breath to argue with this woman, so she did not even deign to explain to her. Other than that, Alex seemed like he did not want to reveal the matter of his murder. Alex said, “Didn’t you see them before? These are all my jades. ” Then, he turned to the people behind him and said, “Alright, send them up for me! Room 206 on the second floor!” The leader of those subordinates immediately replied, “Yes, Mr. Rockefeller!” Thea thought that those few people seemed a bit familiar to her. In addition, they were all wearing the same outfit, they were none other than the subordinates of the Golden Tower. She could not figure it out at all. Why would the people treat Alex with so much respect and they even personally helped him to send the jades over. Why did they not snatch those jades, knowing that they were such valuable treasures? Were they idiots? However, if she were to find out that these people would even kneel down to lick Alex’s shoes with just a word, it was unknown if she would faint on the spot. After sending the jades to Room 206, the subordinates of Golden Tower put them down. After seeing Alex waving his hand at them, they were immediately relieved, as if they had heard the good news of amnesty. They hurriedly retreated with great gratitude, even their footsteps became much lighter. “Alex, Thea said that you won a piece of one billion dollar emerald in stone gambling. Is it true?” Hubert asked in an extreme amazement. He wanted to find out the accurate answer from him as well. “Worth a billion dollars?” Alex nodded his head. He kicked one of the boxes. “You must be talking about this. This emerald is of good quality. Indeed, it should be able to be sold for more than a billion dollars if it is auctioned.” The box was kicked open, revealing the true appearance emerald inside it. Hubert was stunned. “So, it’s actually true?!” Whereas, a strong sense of envy and jealousy flashed through Thea’s eyes. Even though she was now Hubert’s girlfriend, she could not even expect to get one billion dollars. One hundred million dollars was considered a huge amount of money for a lady from families of average income like her. However, Alex did not take it seriously at all. After that, he remembered something all of a sudden and said to Hubert, “Hubert, I happen to have something to tell you too. Previously, you said that your family used to sell Mr. Winn’s cosmeceutical products, but now I’ve noticed a problem.” Hubert replied, “What problem is it?” “The cosmeceuticals are poisonous!” “Huh?” “Nonsense. Where did you hear the rumors from?” Thea immediately scowled. “I’m using this brand of cosmeceutical product too. Moreover, I’ve used all of their products before and they are all great, so where did the poison come from? I think you just hate to see that Hubert is doing good, so you even dare to say such hypothetical things.” Hubert asked, “Alex, how did you know about it?” Alex replied, “I saw a document in Giovanni Winn’s safe keep. It was the core technical component in the cosmeceutical products. It’s a new venom that could make people’s human skin dependent on it. If the product is not used for a period of time, the skin will fester. Moreover, psychologically, it will also create a strong sense of dependency, just like taking those stuff.” “No way?” Hubert’s expression changed abruptly. It was because he suddenly remembered that some people did have such side effects. However, after they continued using the product, they were fine again. At this time, Alex smiled. “But, don’t you worry. There’s a type of antidote that can detoxify the poison, that’s Lush Cosmetics.”
