The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 797

“Do you think Tristan Coleman is stronger than me?” “Do you think I’m not as good as Tristan?” With Alex Rockefeller staring at her while he asked those straightforward questions, Zendaya Stoermer froze for a moment. After that, she shook her head gently. “No, that’s not it. Can you not ask me questions like that? You know that you’re the only one in my heart. It’s true in the past, it’s true now, and it’ll always be true in the future.” Alex moved his head a little closer to Zendaya and stared at her lips. The two were so close that they could inhale the carbon dioxide from each other’s breath, which still had warmth to it. “You’re lying!” Alex smiled and said softly. “I’m not.” Zendaya slowly backed away with a panicked look in her eyes. She also seemed a little nervous. “I can swear.” “What’s the use of swearing? You stole my virginity on the boat that day. Now, you’re going to get married to Tristan. Tell me, aren’t you intentionally cheating on me? How can you still tell me that I’m the only one for you? What do you mean by that?” Alex said. Zendaya’s facial expression became increasingly worse. Tears escaped her eyes. “Don’t cry…” Alex said softly. “I… I didn’t lie to you. I plan to kill myself to protect my virginity! If we can’t be together in this lifetime, there’s still the next…” Alex’s heart trembled. He couldn’t believe this. If he hadn’t come sooner to check on her, wouldn’t it all be too late if he showed up on the day she was supposed to be engaged? After a moment of fright, Alex began to feel angry. He pushed Zendaya away angrily. Zendaya fell forcefully backwards. There was a large and wide bed behind her. Zendaya fell on her back, and she let out a soft cry from the shock and pain. “If you dare to kill yourself, I’ll…” Alex couldn’t think of anything to threaten Zendaya after a long while. “I’ll become a monk in the next lifetime. Who would want to be in a relationship with you? A woman who chooses to kill herself doesn’t deserve to be loved by a man,” Alex said in the end. “What do you want me to do? The problem isn’t Tristan. I know you’ll be able to surpass Tristan one day. In fact, you’ll even be able to trample Missouri’s Coleman family under your feet. But there isn’t time left now! Not only the Coleman family, but the entire Michigan’s Stoermer family and even Alaska’s Stoermer family are looking forward to this marriage. I can’t drag you into this. You can’t beat the Stoermer family and the Coleman family if they work together,” Zendaya said. Alex acted as if he hadn’t heard anything she said. He looked down at her, as if he was judging her. Alex gently leaned forward. “I came to tell you one thing. That night, you shouldn’t have drugged me.” “I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” Zendaya felt ashamed of herself. “I wanted to tell you to be more confident in yourself. Even without the drugs, you’d still succeed,” Alex said. “Huh?” Zendaya said. Alex sighed. He wiped away her tears and spoke in a soft voice. “You’ve lost weight. Have you not been sleeping or eating well lately? Were you thinking about nothing but death?” Zendaya nodded at first, but she then shook her head. “I’ve been thinking about nothing but you.” Alex couldn’t possibly return such a huge favor! After hesitating for half a second, he pressed himself against Zendaya. If the woman before him was Waltz Fleur, he wouldn’t have taken such initiative. However, she was Zendaya. They had already had sex. The hurdle in his heart was practically non-existent. After doing it for the first time, they were bound to do it the second time, and the third time… Xyla Stoermer was in Zendaya’s room. Kazim Stoermer was still lying unconscious on the floor. Five minutes passed. Fifteen minutes passed. Fifty minutes passed… Zendaya began to feel anxious. Why hadn’t the two of them returned yet? Shouldn’t they have finished saying whatever they needed to say? The problem was, once Kazim woke up, or if Carey Stoermer entered, Zendaya wouldn’t be able to explain herself. If her father found out, the consequences would be even more severe. “Could they have… eloped?”
