The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 587
The underling fell to the ground, cradling his cheek with a hand and was visibly upset. âDid I say
something wrong?â
âBut Iâm not wrong!â
âThatâs eighty million weâre talking about here! The budget is forty million too, how could Boss just not
want
it back?â Alex didnât want to watch their conflict any further. He nodded and said, âThatâll be all then!â He
turned around and left, disappearing into the crowd.
The underlings were frustrated and confused. The one
who was slapped crawled up to his feet and asked, âBoss, why wouldnât you want the eighty million? If
you
didnât want it, you couldâve given it to us!â Smack!
The leader slapped him again and kicked him in the gut as well. âWant it? Why in the hell would we
want the money? Do you want to live or what?
Do you know who he is?
If it werenât for me, all of us wouldâve died right there and then!â Another underling asked, âBoss, who is
he?â
The leader took a gulp. âYouâve guys heard of what happened back in Valtameri Tower yesterday, right?
Heâs
the cold-blooded killer who chopped two heads off in one slice, and punched a hole into Mr. Onoâs
body! The
underling who just crawled back to his feet fell to the ground in fear upon listening to this.
All of his underlings widened their eyes, gasping loudly. âBoss, were you mistaken?â
âI know who that guy is, heâs the son-in-law of the third brother in the Assex family. I heard heâs nothing
more but a loser who relies on women! All of California knowsâ¦â Before he could finish his sentence,
the leader punched the underling hard, knocking three of his teeth out. âYou dumb*ss!
If you really want to die, then go ahead! Donât get us involved!â
âThat man had sent a sharp flow of inner force into my body just now. Itâs still flowing in my body too! I
almost peed my pants from this, you know?â ***
On the other hand, Alex called Dorothy. âDarling, Iâve settled the loan sharks. The IOU is destroyed too.
So
donât worry and just take over Assex Constructions.â Dorothy asked, âHow did you do that?â Alex
smiled. âDo you really want to know?
Sure, but you have to finish where we left off yesterday. â
âYouâ¦â Dorothy blushed profusely. âWhy are you always thinking about such naughty things?â
Alex replied, âI think itâs a wonderful thing though. We could always help each other tooâ¦â Dorothy was
extremely flustered. âNope, nope, nope! I canât hear you now! Youâre breaking up!â Alex knew that
some things cannot be rushed. âWell, thatâs all I wanted to tell you.
I still have some things to
tend to, so I wonât be going back to your place. Your mother might start giving me another lecture after
all.â
âShe said she wanted to treat you to a meal!â
âAh, itâs fine. I feel like she just wants me to cook. Darling, I really do have some things to tend to.
Since
Lush Cosmetics is out, all thatâs left is to crush Rockefeller Group.
When that happens, youâll be one of the
owners of Lush Cosmetics and youâll become the cosmetics queen.â Dorothy lowered her voice. âI just
want to be yours.â Alex felt excited as soon as he heard this. He wished that he could rush over to her
and get down to business
immediately.
However, he did have other things to do. Waltz had locked herself up for training so she could regain
her cultivation. He had to make another set of pills
for her in order to help push her cultivation to Intermediate-Mystic rank after sheâs done with her
training. On the way home, Alex dialed Michelleâs number, asking her to come over as well. He had
chosen his team for the SCBA Battles. His team consisted of himself, Nathan, Waltz, Michelle and
Holly.
The Sky Tower included information on his father, hence he was determined to get it. He would kill
anyone he
faced during the battles, no matter who it was. At the same time, he knew that he had to try and push
his cultivation to further heights as wellâ¦
After building the foundation, his Chi was strong and concentrated, his Mystic Armor was much
stronger as well. However, if heâd have to go against an extremely skilled fighter, he had to get himself
a trump card up his
sleeve. âOh right!â
âThe Stake of Exorcism!â
