The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 892

Colby looked at Alex and felt more grateful toward him than he ever did. “Bro, thank you, thank you!” he gushed. Alex smiled. “Don’t worry about it, don’t worry about it. I wish you and Miss Larsen an early marriage, and may you have children quickly. Remember to write me a cheque on the child’s first month!” “Of course, for sure. It’s a promise,” Colby hurriedly said. Seeing that Alex was about to pay the bill for the food, he quickly said he would settle it. Then, Alex pulled Cheryl out the doors and left. “Cheryl? Cheryl, don’t go!” Phoebe yelled, but Alex’s kick had injured her foot, and she didn’t have one shoe. Even if Colby had intentionally blocked her path or not, it wasn’t like she could walk even if she wanted to. After they walked out of the steakhouse, Alex didn’t really leave the place but stood outside instead. He was well aware of the nature of some guys, and though Phoebe did upset him, something terrible might happen to her if he left her here just like that. If something really did, then Cheryl would probably feel guilty for the rest of her life. So, this was just a minor punishment. However, it was Cheryl who blinked and said, “Why aren’t we leaving?” Alex was taken aback “Leaving her for real, are you really okay with it?” Cheryl smiled and said, “What could happen? Phoebe had called Colby to come here herself. She can handle it by herself.” “You’re not afraid that something would happen to her?” “Don’t worry. She’s not some random commoner. As long as Colby isn’t stupid, he wouldn’t dare to do anything untoward to her. “She has such an influential background?” “Quite. If it were back in ancient times, he should be a magistrate in Michigan.” “A magistrate of Michigan? F*ck! Then she’s the daughter of the mayor? No wonder she’s so narcissistic.” “Narcissistic? I don’t think that’s how she is. She has extremely high standards, but she was brought up in that kind of household after all.” Alex nodded. Although it was said that all beings were equal, the moment they were born, whether they would be noble or lowly, had all been predetermined. Some people even had food and clothing problems, while some could ride luxury cars that cost tens of millions of dollars, eat the best delicacies one could get from the seas and mountains, and wear the most luxurious silk and satin. So, was it fair? Not at all! Alex then said, “Then… I’ll send you home?” Cheryl looked at the time, then said, “It’s still early. How about… You accompany me on a walk?” Looking at her beautiful, peerless face, Alex readily agreed. Then, the two walked on the road like an actual couple, chatting about some of the exciting things they found around them. Suddenly, an electric car whizzed past them, shocking Cheryl, who quickly grabbed Alex in surprise. Then… She didn’t let go. Alex could feel the soft bounciness on his arm from time to time, which caused periodic ripples to course through his heart. Unexpectedly, while they were walking, they bumped into someone familiar. It was his former mother-in-law, Claire Assex. Claire had come out from nowhere, all dressed up, suddenly running into Alex and Cheryl, who were holding hands. Her face immediately twisted into an ugly expression, her temper flaring up. “Hey, and there I thought who it was! So, it turns out it’s the two of you! Rockefeller, you ungrateful ingrate! Back then, before you divorced my daughter, you said nothing was going on between you and this female doctor. Look at this… Is this what you call nothing? You’re practically melting into each other. Why bother to embarrass people with your display? You might as well just get a room and get on with making babies!”
