The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 312

Afternoon, after a meal. Hailey had managed to successfully avoid suspicion and was getting ready to drive back alone to California. California was actually close by, an hour and a half journey by car. Before leaving, Hailey grabbed Alex and said, “Stinking brat, tell me honestly, did you touch me last night?” Alex was disheveled for a moment. “Sister, I really didn’t. Weren’t your clothes all neat?” “Hmph. Who knows? You could have straightened up my clothes after you did it. Anyway, if I get pregnant, you’ll have to take responsibility.” “What?” Vroom! The car started and Hailey sped away in her Mercedes Benz. Hailey sniggered as she observed Alex’s expression in the rearview mirror. “Let’s see how scared you get!” Then, she rubbed her chest where her heart was. “Stinking brat, how sneaky. It hurts!” *** The next week. Belle Blossom, the skin care product assembly factory was changing at a rapid pace. Money is good as long as you have enough of it, you can accomplish anything, you would be able to see success. Soon, Nicholas Hudson and Chloe Zea also came to report. In the Research and Development Center, Brittany and Maya have also made a sample of a new anti-freckle cream. “This is the new anti-freckle cream that your dad and I have nailed down before the car accident,” Madame Brittany said. She was pleased and obviously had great hopes for it. “The formula for the Bounty Acne Cream was actually obtained by accident from an ancient relic. It was an ancient royal prescription and produced excellent results!” “However, our current formula uses the original one as a base with a few improvements. Now, its efficacy has increased by 20%.” “With this, I’m confident we can beat the Rockefeller family.” Alex took the sample box and gave it a whiff. Very quickly, he could tell what kind of medicinal ingredients had been used in it. It was also clear to him the benefits of each ingredient used. Alex shook his head. “Mom, it would still be difficult to beat the Rockefeller family, especially since it’s only a 20% increase in efficacy. If you’re really planning to achieve it in 3 months, the chances are not looking good.” Brittany smiled. “What if I told you that our new cream would also be able to remove the residual effects of the original Bounty Acne Cream?” “What?!” “There’s a residual effect from using Bounty Acne Cream. It can remove freckles, but it leaves behind some no-so-obvious white spots. Although they aren’t obvious, they can still be seen on your face if you look closer. However, my cream will be able to remove those white spots.” Alex smiled. “So it seems that you’re already well prepared with an ace up your sleeves, Mom.” After a pause, he said, “Then, let me give you another hidden card.” He quicldy took out a piece of paper and scribbled a formula on it. Brittany looked at him, stunned. “Alex, you… Have you seen my new formula before?” The formula that Alex wrote was almost exactly the same as the one she currently used, except that the amount of some of the ingredients had been reduced, and a herb had been added. However, she was sure that her son had never laid eyes on the formula before. So, how did he know? Alex smiled and shook his head. “Mom, if you try this formula, you may get some unexpected results.” Brittany was puzzled, yet surprised. “This is…” “Just match it up together and do a test, you’ll find out soon enough.” Alex didn’t give her a direct answer. No matter what he said, it would not be as convincing as witnessing the results of the actual test. After pondering for a moment, Alex picked up another piece of paper. He wrote a completely different formula and handed it over to Brittany with a smile. “Mom, I’ll give this one to you too. Since we’re going to launch a sneak attack in this war, we must make sure to do so brilliantly and completely overtake them! We’ll create a bigger and greater Rockefeller Group, and create an even bigger legend than before.” He had promised Claire that he would make Dorothy the richest woman in California before they were to have children. He couldn’t possibly wait ten or more years for that, right? The Ultimate Book of Medicine was all encompassing, containing many extraordinary methods. He could easily extract many more medicinal formulae like the ones he had just written down. However, it was not good to be too greedy. Quality over quantity, two types were good enough. When Brittany heard his words, there was a bright glint in her eyes. Just then, Alex’s phone started to ring. He saw that it was Cheryl calling. Her helpless cries came through as soon as he answered, “Alex, where are you?”
