The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 700

How could Alex Rockefeller let Aaron Coleman get what he wanted? “Go on,” Alex said to Anna coleman. “Sanctuary Shrine is indeed very evil. A few years ago, it was a very popular place for people to burn incense there, especially when they heard that the Goddess of Fertility there was very reliable. Countless women from rich families went to make offerings at Sanctuary Shrine… But afterward, things started to happen. The women who made offerings at Sanctuary Shrine in return for fertility went through major personality shifts after getting pregnant. Some even intentionally moved to stay in Sanctuary Shrine. In the end, they all ended up with miscarriages. Do you know why?” Anna explained before asking. Alex was shocked. “I can’t believe something like this could happen. Why is that?” “I do not know either. Not only did they suffer miscarriages, but those women became terribly ill. When they woke up, they couldn’t even remember what happened! Divine Constabulary had also intervened to investigate in the past, but to no avail. Now, Sanctuary Shrine has been completely sealed away, yet some strange things are still happening.” “What kind of strange?” Waltz Fleur asked. Aaron Coleman finally found an opportunity to speak. “The ancient kind of strange. People often go missing, especially young women. And the strangest thing is that those women somehow get pregnant. Some of them get pregnant in just one day. Don’t you think that’s weird?” Alex and Waltz were stunned to hear this. From a biological point of view, this was impossible. “Anyway, we still have to go there and find out! Anna, please send us somewhere near Sanctuary Shrine. We can deal with the rest on our own,” Alex said. Aaron looked at Alex in jealousy. “What is the relationship between you two?” Aaron asked. “She’s my junior,” Alex said. When Aaron heard this, he immediately became happy again. “So, you’re her senior! Don’t worry, Ms. Fleur. Your problem is my problem too. Your godfather is also my elder. Michigan is my home anyway. Even if Sanctuary Shrine turns out to be a lion’s den, I will come with you.” Waltz could definitely tell that he was interested in her. She felt a little embarrassed. “But I’d feel bad if you got hurt because of me. You’re not even related to me.” Aaron patted his chest. “Ms. Fleur, we are partners in the business world. Besides, we live in a dangerous world. When we see injustice, we should help each other. This is my generation’s code of conduct. Even if it’s not you, Ms. Fleur, who is in trouble today, but Ms. Coleman or Ms. Pattingson, I would still help out all the same.” Waltz appeared grateful. “Thank you so much, Mr. Coleman. You’re a good man.” Anna listened to their conversation. For some unknown reason, she mourned for her brother. Waltz was clearly conveying that she didn’t want to owe Aaron any favors because of this incident, but Aaron still responded enthusiastically. More importantly, Waltz might not even appreciate his efforts. She’d only think of Aaron as a kind person. ‘My brother really is an idiot!’ Anna sighed. Soon, Alex and Waltz got into the helicopter. With Anna flying it, the four of them returned to Michigan together. Aaron turned to speak to Waltz. “Ms. Fleur, if we’re going to Sanctuary Shrine, we’d better be well prepared. I’ll get a few people to come with us,” he said. “It’s okay. My senior will be enough,” Waltz said. Aaron shook his head. He had carefully observed Alex long ago, and he realized Alex didn’t have any inner force at all. At most, Alex only knew some basic fighting techniques. Compared to someone who had gone through proper martial arts training like him, Alex was nothing. Hence, Aaron didn’t think much of Alex at all. “Your senior is too weak to fight. He won’t be of any help at all. In fact, he might even slow us down. Why don’t we let your senior stay out of our trip to Sanctuary Shrine this time? It’ll be better just in case he slows us down! He can wait for us outside… Sister, wait here for a while. I’ll get a few expert martial artists to come over,” Aaron said before rushing off to the Coleman family. Alex had an odd expression on his face. He was being looked down on again. But he didn’t care to explain. Instead, he thought about the possible situation he might encounter later.
