The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 458

How could Alex Rockefeller not know what’s going on? It had to be Maya Howards, who had taken off her high heels, touching his shin with her toes. Alex turned to look at Maya with a confused expression on his face. Maya made a hooking motion with her finger. Alex leaned in, and Maya started whispering into his ear with a smile on her face. Roger watched this happening with intense jealousy. He wished he could kill Alex and approach Maya on his own. He had developed feelings for Maya ever since they were still studying but never had the chance to get close to her. When they met again after several years, Maya had become even prettier, gentler, and more enticing. Roger felt very tempted. “Did you say, Paradise Corp? If Paradise Corp went away, would you stop being so arrogant and be less annoying? As your previous boss, I think I bear the responsibility of leading you down the right path,” Alex said. As soon as Alex said that, Roger started laughing loudly. “Alex, who do you think you’re trying to intimidate? Do you think you alone can destroy Paradise Corp? That’ll only happen if the sun rises from the west,” Roger said. Alex shook his head before taking his phone out and making two calls. One of the calls was to Michelle Yowell, while the other was to Waltz Fleur. “Don’t ask me why, but I want Paradise Corp to disappear from California immediately!” Alex said. “Fine, I’ll tell you the reason. I don’t like Roger Graham because he won’t let me eat,” he added. Right away, Waltz Fleur’s Thousand Miles Conglomerate and the Yowell family’s Yowell Group started viciously attacking Paradise Corp. At this moment, Shayna Morrison finally returned with security. She pointed at Alex “Kick this person out. From now, he’s not allowed to dine in our restaurant,” she ordered sternly. “Huh?” The two security guards were at a loss for words. Alex wasn’t causing any trouble. Why did they have to kick him out? It was an extremely offensive act, and it would reflect badly on the restaurant. But Shayna was the boss here. When the security guards saw how determined she seemed, they had no choice but to shoo Alex away. Roger laughed coldly while he waited for the show to begin. As for the calls Alex made earlier, he didn’t take it to heart at all. He thought that Alex was probably just putting up an act. However, right about then, Roger’s phone started to ring loudly. When he looked at it, he saw that his father was calling. Maya chuckled. “Roger, I think you should quickly pick that up. Who knows? Paradise Corp might have really shut down!” she exclaimed. Roger laughed coldly with a look of disdain in his eyes. “Are you kidding me? If he’s capable of doing this, I’ll jump off the eighteenth floor of this building,” he proclaimed while answering the call. In an instant, his father, Louis Graham, could be heard shouting over the phone, “You b*stard! Who did you offend out there?!” “Who did you prevent from eating? Do you have any idea that Paradise Corp is done for because of you, you piece of trash? Yowell Group has canceled our contract, and Thousand Miles Conglomerate wants to stop working with us. The banks have ceased all loans and are asking us to pay our debts immediately. Tell me, what will we do?!” “The only way out for Paradise Corp is to declare bankruptcy to nullify our debts! We will all have to jump off a building!” Louis yelled. Buzz! Roger couldn’t believe what he heard as he listened to his father’s angry screams. At this moment, his heart was filled with nothing but extreme fear when he looked at Alex. Ba-dum! Roger kneeled before Alex with a loud thud.
