The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 586
In the end, Benny had to nod sadly as he took up Alexâs offer. He knew just how bad of a situation
Assex Constructions was in right now. The bank loans were still on hold, hence they couldnât pay any of
their employees. Moreover, some of their important projects were facing
various problems. They wouldnât last a month if this went on.
Theyâd go bankrupt. However, if Dorothy took over the company, the large projects she was handling
now would most likely help
their company get through this. The 30% of shares that the Assexes would hold was the best profitable
option they had now. Dorothy pulled Alex aside, whispering. âHubby, where would we find eighty million
to pay them back? All
of the projects at hand need money to keep operating.
We would have twenty million of working capital at
most.â Alex smiled and leaned forward, whispering into her ear. âDonât worry, we wonât have to pay a
single
penny.â
âHuh?â
âI have my ways.â Benny immediately had someone print out the contract and signed it on the spot.
With hundreds of people here as witnesses, Dorothy had just taken over Assex Constructions.
She didnât hesitate one bit and turned to Jeremy.
âJeremy, please bring the other employees back. Iâll be
responsible for paying last monthâs salary to all of you. Youâll receive it latest by tomorrow. The finance
department would transfer the funds to your bank accounts once everythingâs calculated. Also, tell all
the
directors to head to Dorothy-Alex Constructions tomorrow, weâre having a meeting at nine in the
morning.â
Jeremy bowed to her.
âAlright, Ms. Assex!â Alex, on the other hand, turned to the leader. âAlright, Iâll be responsible for the
loan then. Follow me to get
the money. Donât worry, I wonât dare to stall this loan any longer.â ***
After leaving the memorial hall, Claire was still in a daze, confused. However, thinking back to how her
daughter became the owner of Assex Constructions, she was overjoyed
and excited.
Beatrice was confused as well. âSis, those people are asking for eighty million, does Alex⦠Really
have that
much money?â Dorothy was puzzled as well, she shook her head. âI donât think so. I donât know what
heâs trying to do, but
he mentioned that we wouldnât need to pay a single penny to settle this.â Beatrice was slightly worried.
âHe wonât get himself in danger right?â Claire replied. âWhat danger could he possibly get into? Heâs the
one who bluffed about it, so itâs only right
that he takes responsibility for his own words!
If he really needed the money, he could always ask his mother, right? She might be hiding some dirty
money from back then!â
Dorothy fumed. âMom, for the love of god, can you not say something like that? What do you mean by
âdirty
moneyâ?â Claire replied, âIf it wasnât dirty money, then why would William be accused of being a
traitor?â Dorothy explained. âHe was wrongfully accused! John Rockefeller made everything up!â
Beatrice nodded. âYeah, Alexâs family was definitely wrongfully accused. John Rockefeller, Spark
Rockefeller and every other Rockefeller in that family are all trash!
Scums! They deserved to die! If I were
him, I wouldâve stabbed them with a knife the moment I saw them.â Thinking back to what Spark tried to
do to her, she clenched her teeth angrily. She was fortunate to have Mask
save her at the very last moment.
âBut Mask is already married. How unfortunate!â Claire asked, âBeatrice, have you gone mental? Why
do you keep defending him lately?â Beatrice replied, âThatâs because⦠I think Alex is pretty reliable
now! Heâs much better compared to back
then.â At the same time, Alex left with the men in red. Alex smiled at the leader coldly and asked, âDo
you still want
the money?â
The leader immediately replied, âNo, no, you donât have to pay us. Not a single penny.â One of his
underlings froze. âBoss, are you mad? Why wouldnât he need to pay?â Smack!
The leader slapped his underling. âShut your f*cking mouth!
