The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 739

Alex was actually a little disgusted when he saw the daydream-like expression on Adrianna’s face. He had been insulted countless times by her in the past. He didn’t want to let her benefit too much from this situation for no reason. A Porsche already cost one or two million dollars, and it was already a huge bargain to repay the loss and hurt that the mother and daughter went through. Since Alex had opened his mouth, how could Zane object? He hurriedly left a Porsche behind, then left quickly, as though he was fleeing for his life. Facing Alex, he felt as if his life was perilous despite staying close to the sovereign. Adrianna could only watch the Rolls Royce slowly left her vision, she was tempted to beat her own chest. Obviously she wasn’t stupid. Between a Rolls Royce and a Porsche, she knew exactly which one was more expensive. And now, because of that bad Alex, tens of millions dollars had been reduced to one million dollars with just a word. She really wanted to rush up at him and bite his head off. However, she didn’t dare to do so in the end. Seeing Alex’s calm and unconcerned demeanor as if he had chased the two people away like flies, she knew that she must show extreme gratitude and be as cordial as she could. “Oh Alex, it’s all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, Sharpay and I would really have been beaten to death today.” Alex nodded. “Don’t mention it. Do you want to head to the hospital to have your injuries treated?” Adrianna shook her head repeatedly. “It’s fine, it’s fine. These are just some small wounds. We’ll be fine after resting at home for a few days. It would be embarrassing if we go to the hospital!” Alex said, “Alright then. Take the Porsche as compensation today. You both can drive one of the cars each home, I’m leaving.” He was blunt and straightforward, and turned around to head back to the taxi. The matter that had just transpired was a trivial matter to him. Seeing that he was really leaving, Sharpay was anxious. She had finally gotten the opportunity to meet Alex, how could she let him leave just like that after saving them? She hurried forward and pulled Alex as she said, “Mr. Rockefeller, you’ve helped out family so much, let my mom and I treat you to a meal!” Alex waved his hand. “No need, I still have something to attend to.” “Mr. Rockefeller…” Sharpay’s voice was coquettish, and even the passer-bys who were listening couldn’t help but feel their heart melt. “My mom can’t drive, and I can’t possibly drive two cars home by myself. Why don’t… Could you help us drive one car back to our home? Also, I have a new idea about the membership module for the salon, and I want to report it to you.” “A new idea?” Alex looked at her with a strange look on his face. It was just that he was limited in his knowledge regarding Sharpay. He didn’t even know the university she had attended, nor the major that she studied. He saw the road was getting more congested, the drivers behind were desperately pressing the horns of their car, and some had even started to call the police to tow the cars away. He nodded. “Fine!” Alex got into the Porsche. Sharpay got into her own Camry, and drove all the way back to the Bellamy residence. On the way back, Adrianna sat in the passenger seat beside Sharpay. A gloomy look was on her face as she said, “I’m so angry right now. That b*stard Rockefeller, he just deliberately made our family get nothing good. If we managed to get the Rolls Royce earlier, it would be worth at least fifteen million dollars. I’ve seen that model on the internet before. Even if we were to resell it, we could get at least ten million dollars from it. Oh great, now we only get a dilapidated Porsche that costs two million dollars at most.” Sharpay only felt extreme satisfaction towards Alex in her heart right now. When she heard her mother speak that way, she was unhappy and said, “Mom, you’re being too unreasonable about this. If it weren’t for Alex’s appearance today, forget about the two million dollar Porsche, our entire family would have been drowned in a river!” Adrianna’s lips curled up. “I know that Alex has helped us out a lot today, but he also made me lose the chance to get a Rolls Royce! Can’t I just vent my anger by cursing him for a few sentences? It’s not like he can hear it anyway.” “Even if he can’t hear it, it’s not okay. Why are you like this? You’re really someone who bites the hand that feeds them. This is a personality problem, you know? That Director Zeig whosoever originally wanted to curry favour with Alex by offering the Rolls Royce. If it weren’t for Alex, do you think he’d even offer it up? Also, Alex is right about the situation in our family. How could we afford to drive the Rolls Royce? We can’t even afford the maintenance.” “If we can’t afford it, I can at least still sell it!” “Are you crazy? Without the registration or insurance, how could we sell it?” “This…” “Mom, I’ll put it this way. Since they have given us the car today, and the matter is done and over. That car still belongs to the shareholder of Thousand Miles Conglomerate. Do you really think we’d be able to go to his house and ask him to transfer the ownership of the car? So, the only option we’d have is to drive the car ourselves until it’s ruined. It’s impossible to sell it off in the first place!” When Adrianna heard that, she was discouraged instantly. “So, you’re saying that Alex really helped us a lot by giving us a Porsche instead.” Sharpay said, “That’s right. If he didn’t help us, we wouldn’t even be alive right now.
