The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 746

After speaking, Dorothy went upstairs to get change while texting Alex. “Babe, I miss you!” Alex replied immediately. “Where do you miss me?” Dorothy was putting on lipstick while she replied with a smile. “There!” Alex replied with a tongue-licking emoji. “I’ll meet you outside your housing area in half an hour.” When Dorothy was done dressing up seductively and leaving the house with a small bag, Beatrice stared at her back as she talked to Claire, “Mom, don’t you think Sis is a bit odd? Why would she dress up so beautifully at this hour? Is she really out to talk about business?” Claire only hummed twice, her mind was not on this matter at all. After a while, she suddenly looked at Beatrice and said, “Beatrice, do you think that Alex could defeat Rockefeller Group and take it back?” Beatrice was dumbfounded. “Why do you suddenly ask about this?” Claire said, “Think about it, even the shareholder of Thousand Miles Conglomerate had to bow down to that ungrateful rascal. What qualification does he have? Don’t you find it odd? It couldn’t be because of Lush Cosmetics that was opened by his mother, right?… Also, the boss of Thousand Miles actually came personally and apologized to us last time. He even gave you many presents, how is that normal? Thinking about it now, something is really wrong. Even with the help of your university classmate from the Yowells, she couldn’t possibly make Lord Lex speak to Alex humbly, right?” Beatrice thought about it and her eyes were widened as she said, “Do you think Alex has been playing dumb to take advantages of others all this while? In fact, he’s actually an heir of the royalties?” “What are you talking about? What royalties?” “Mom, you don’t understand it! I saw an entirely new world when I went to the Eastward Island. There are really martial artists in this world. They could break metals with a punch and even reach out their hands to summon lightning! Furthermore, the royalties truly exist.” She thought of Mask when she spoke about this. Her face was filled with admiration and fascination. Of course, Claire did not believe her. “I think you’re just addicted to your martial arts novels. If they could summon lightning with their bare hands, do you believe that I know Buddha Palm Technique and I could slap sh*t out of you with just a palm strike? I’ll give you a mission. Go and find out any hidden information behind Alex and to what extent the business of Lush Cosmetics has reached.” “Sure. l just happen to have an omniscient classmate about California. I’ll just call him and ask!” While both the mother and daughter were having their axes to grind with their plans, Alex picked up Dorothy and went to Maple Villa. Once they entered the villa, the two people were excited to get together. Bags were thrown to the side, shoes were flung to the corner of the wall and their clothes were all over the place. The temperature in the room was rising rapidly. After all, they were energetic young people. They couldn’t forget the taste once they had tried it and they wanted to try it again. Furthermore, short partings made the reunion even sweeter than a honeymoon. How could they withstand the temptation? Soon after, everywhere in that villa had become a scene for them. Two hours later, Dorothy lay on Alex’s chest lazily. She closed her eyes as she listened to his heartbeat. After a while, she suddenly said, “I heard that Zendaya is engaged and her fiance is Coleman’s young master of Missouri. You should know about that, right?” Alex’s heart instantly skipped a beat. He thought,‘Why is she talking about this?’ He immediately sounded her out by asking, “I think I heard a bit of rumors, but I’m not sure about the details.” Dorothy smirked. “I thought you were planning to snatch the bride!” Alex was shocked and a trace of panic flashed through his eyes. He hurriedly covered up for himself. “How’s that even possible? I can’t afford to mess with the Colemans of Missouri nor the Stoerrners of Michigan!” “Does that mean that you would go and snatch the bride if you could afford to mess with them?
