Ch. 391..400

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 391

Since they were on the phone, Heath did not know what expression had suddenly formed on his father’s face. However, after his father picked up the phone again, he had solemnly warned him that he should not act rashly or try to investigate Alex, let alone find someone to deal with him. They would talk about it after Frank returned.

It was then that he knew that this Alex whom Chloe called a spineless coward must have some strong backing to the point that even his father, a formidable person, had a hint of fear towards him.

“What on earth is going on here, Dad?” Heath was so surprised, but he still couldn’t help asking.

“Don’t ask too much. Just pretend that you never saw that person,” Frank said.

“Fine!”

After hanging up the call, Heath felt a chill on his back. He had initially planned to gather some masters from the Valtameri to bait Alex out and attack him as a group. He believed that they would be able to take down Alex this way.

Even if he could fight, could he fight against guns?

Fortunately, he hadn’t acted on it yet.

Bang!

Heath walked back in and gave a hard kick to Chloe’s stomach. “Motherf*cker, bastard, harbinger of misfortune.”

Then, he turned to several of his subordinates and asked, “Who wants this woman?”

All of his subordinates shook their heads.

Even though she was an extremely beautiful girl, the bad luck that followed her made it so that they wouldn’t want her even if Heath paid them.

“Do you want to…”

One of his other subordinates made a gesture at his neck, clicking his tongue.

When Chloe saw that, she exclaimed in shock and urinated in fear. She hurriedly laid herself at Heath Accardo’s feet. “Young Master Accardo, please don’t kill me. Please, don’ t kill me! I can do anything for you! Dorothy Assex! That’s right, Alex’s wife, Dorothy is a beauty. Her younger sister is also a beauty, she’s the campus belle. I can help you get them. They’re a hundred times more beautiful than me, and they’re virgins…”

Bang

Heath kicked her in the chest “Who said that I’m going after Alex? Motherf*cker, it’s all because of you.”

After kicking her continuously over and over again, Chloe finally passed out.

“Find a place and toss her out!”

“You’re not going to kill her?” asked one of his subordinates.

A glint flashed in Heath’s eyes. “She can’t die just yet.”

Her position as Alex’s ex-girlfriend had saved her life.

***

As for Alex, after he had dropped off Daya at a parking lot, he drove home.

When he had resonated with Daya’s mental power, he had benefited a lot from it, and his mental powers had seen a relatively large increase.

That was strange.

Previously when he had listened to her singing in her concert, he never felt anything like this but when she had sung for him alone, it was obvious that her mental powers were like a gigantic magnetic field. Unfortunately, Daya probably wouldn’t agree to a solo performance after that ambiguous hug.

His phone rang at this moment, it was a call from Dorothy.

She was having a little tantrum and said, “What have you been busy with these few days? You didn’t even call me or come home to eat. Do you still even care for this wife of yours?”

Alex was taken aback for a moment, then silently calculated the timing of her period. It shouldn’t have come yet!

“My wife, I’m busy making money. It’s not easy work to make you the richest woman in California.” Alex replied with a smile on his lips.

“Really? Having a date with a shameless female doctor would make me the richest woman in California?”

Dorothy coldly shot back, and Alex’s car almost hit the railings.

“My wife, have you been listening to your sister’s nonsense again? She doesn’t have a good impression of us at all, and she just can’t wait for you to divorce me and find a new husband for you.”

“Did you meet her?”

“Well… I had some serious business.”

“Come and pick me up tonight. I’ll give you a chance to explain it in person. Also, buy a washboard on the way,” Dorothy said coldly.

“What do you need a washboard for?” Alex asked, shocked. “Don’t we have a washing machine at home?”

“It’s for you to kneel on!” Dorothy scoffed.

Alex’s face froze for a moment, but then he suddenly recalled that there was actually something he needed to do tonight, and hurriedly said, “I can’t do tonight, I have an appointment.”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 392

“With the female doctor?”

“Of course not. It’s with Jack Trent from Thousand Leaves Construction, the one who gave us the contract. I have to maintain a good relationship with him, right? I wonder who I’m doing all of these for, hmm?” he asked, hoping to be given credit for his work.

“Then… Once you’re done, bring a change of clothes.”

“What for?”

“What do you think? To sleepover.”

“I won’t sleep in the housekeeper’s room!”

“Do what you want!”

After hanging up, Alex’s car almost rammed into the car in front of him.

What was that supposed to mean?!

Did that mean they could sleep in the same bed?

F*ck, it’s not that easy to always see the light at the end of the tunnel!

As for the washboard, it was impossible for him to buy one in this day and age…

***

At 5 o’clock, Alex came to the commendation meeting specially organized by Leanne’s company.

In order not to draw attention, he had come alone.

Leanne’s company was called Alluring Paradise Clothing, involved in fashion design and trade. Leanne herself is an excellent fashion designer. After meeting Jack and receiving his investment, Alluring Paradise Clothing was established. They hadn’t expected the business to continue growing bigger and bigger to the point where the business had branches abroad.

That’s why the company had a lot of employees.

Leanne had booked a large buffet restaurant to hold the commendation meeting.

“Alex?”

Unexpectedly, he was called before he had even stepped into the entrance.

He turned and saw a beautiful woman wearing glasses and a white shirt, about 5.4 feet tall.

It was obvious that she was the one who called out to him, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.

She behaved as if you must obey her once she’s called you.

Alex was stunned for a moment. Even after taking a good look at her, he couldn’t recognize who she was. He also didn’t like the look in her eyes.

So, he simply ignored her and continued walking towards the hall with his hands behind his back.

“Stop!” The woman yelled at him. “Where are you going? I know that you’ve gone from being at the top of the young and rich, to the bottom as a discarded and abandoned piece of trash who doesn’t have any merit to meet people. And don’t you know me?”

Alex was puzzled as he turned around and said, “Do you know me?”

The woman exploded. “F*ck, are you serious? I’m sure you remember Chloe, right? I’m Megan Tyrell.”

Alex instantly remembered when he heard the name. “Ah, so it’s you!”

It was the girl that had been Chloe’s roommate.

But Alex and Chloe had only been together for a month before they decided that it wasn’t working out and broke up. So it wasn’t too much of a surprise that he didn’t remember her roommate, Megan Tyrell.

Megan sighed, making no attempt to hide the contempt she felt. “All this while, you’re actually working in Alluring Paradise? I’ve never seen you before. Which department are you in? Could it be that you’ve not heard of my name, I’m from the secretarial department. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me! I’ll help you solve it, since we’ve known each other before this. Even if you’ve dropped to the bottom now, you don’t have to have such low self-esteem! How unsightly!”

She continued to blabber on endlessly.

This woman had a real temperament. Although her words weren’t pleasant, the meaning behind them was sincere, she wanted to help him.

Alex didn’t bother explaining, but only nodded his head. “Okay, I’ll look for you if I need any help.”

Megan nodded. “Go on in, and remember to come by table No. 3 to have a toast. Have some confidence, don’t act like some good-for-nothing.”

Alex was speechless.

Since when did he act like he was a good-for-nothing?

At this moment, another woman in an office outfit came by, pointing to Megan. “Meg, and whoever you are, come help me move some things.”

Megan’s demeanor immediately flipped 180 degrees. With a bright smile on her face, she said, “Of course, Sister Weber. I’m very strong after all.”

Alex’s eyes widened, and his laugh almost slipped out.

Megan glared at him. “What are you staring at? Let’s go, we need to move things.”

Alex scratched his nose, then turned to follow her.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 393

Alex followed, but his eyes kept wandering to Sister Weber’s butt.

He had come to find the person who had placed the parasite on Leanne.

He didn’t plan to spend much effort to do so, expecting the answer to just come to him. Sure enough, he found the person the moment he arrived.

When Sister Weber had approached them earlier, the parasitic worm that Alex had placed in a glass bottle in his pocket had reacted fiercely. It started jumping around inside the bottle, wanting to return its mother’s embrace.

Fortunately, he had made the necessary preparations on the worm.

Even if it was anxious and made any fierce movements, wanting to return its mother, she would not feel it. Otherwise, Sister Weber, who had the mother parasite in her body, would have felt it earlier.

“These are the things. Move all the wine and drinks inside. Then, distribute five bottles of red wine and one box of drinks per table. Don’t mess up. I will know because you’re the only one I have asked to do this.”

Sister Weber pointed at the pile of drinks at the entrance, instructing Megan bluntly.

Megan was shocked at the mountain of goods that needed to be moved. “This is a bit too much, Sister Weber. Let me call some male colleagues to help. It would be faster that way.”

Sister Weber glared at her. “Why would you need to look for others? It’s just some wine and drinks. Didn’t you say that you’re quite strong? If you can’t even do these little things well, how will you hope to play a bigger role in the secretarial department? Just the two of you is enough. Hurry up and get moving. If you don’t complete this task, the consequences won’t be pleasant.”

Having said that, she turned around, her hips swaying just as they did when she first walked in.

Megan was close to tears. “How can we move this many boxes by ourselves? And she didn’t even allow us to get more help. What did she mean by that?”

Alex looked at Sister Weber as she walked away with a frosty look.

He had previously suspected the person who planted the parasite on Leanne to be a man because it was the kind of spell usually done between lovers.

He didn’t expect the culprit to be a woman instead.

Was it possible that there was something between Sister Weber and Leanne?

The other possibility was that there was something between Sister Weber and Jack.

“Can’t you see it, Megan? You’re being targeted. Did you have some disagreement with her before? Who is she?” Alex asked calmly.

“Don’t you know who she is? Did you just join the company recently?” Megan said suspiciously. “She’s the first secretary of Alluring Paradise, and Miss Leane’s right hand. She’s practically Miss Leanne’s favourite, and is an amazing person… Alex, I’m sure you would have known this. Don’t offend her, otherwise, even I can’t save you.”

Alex was speechless. “You don’t seem able to protect yourself. If I remain next to you, I’m sure I’ll also be targeted by her. Seems like it’s better if I don’t go to your table to toast with you later.”

Megan shot him a cold look, but she had nothing better to say.

Instead, Alex started asking her about Sister Weber. Alex soon found out that Sister Weber’s name is Cindy Weber. Apart from being first secretary, she was also an executive director of the company, second only to the chairman. She was someone who did things swiftly and decisively. Many people in the company were afraid of her.

Then, she asked, “Why are you asking for such details? You can’t possibly be interested in her?”

Alex scoffed lightly. “No way. Not in the slightest.”

At this time, he saw Jack walking over. Not wanting to expose his identity in front of Megan, he quickly said, “Oh, I really need to pee. You start moving the things first, I have to go.”

Having said that, he turned around and left.

He didn’t want to expose his identity because he wanted to find out if Cindy was alone, or if she had accomplices.

Megan was anxious. “Hey, seriously? Moving all these by myself?”

Soon, Jack quietly followed him into the washroom.

“Mr. Alex!”

“Mr. Jack, just pretend you don’t know me for the time being, and treat me like an employee of your company. I’ll check once more. Rest assured, I already have a lead.”

When Jack heard this, he was overjoyed.

Alex entered the hall and walked around the place, appearing casual but silently alert.

Suddenly, a loud sound rang out and the crowd cried out in surprise.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 394

Alex took a closer look and found that it was Megan. She had been carrying a box of red wine, but had accidentally tripped and fallen.

Coincidentally, after the wine bottles broke, some of the liquid splashed against Cindy‘s white heels.

“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, Sister Weber. I didn’t mean it. ” Megan apologized in a hurry.

Slap!

Cindy slapped Megan in the face.

“Are you kidding me? You can’t even handle a few bottles of wine? What use is there for the company to keep you? Or did you do it deliberately? Did you hold a grudge against me for making you move the beverages for you to pretend to slip? Did you want to crush me to death with it? Get out of my sight. You don’t have to come to work anymore tomorrow.” Cindy didn’t spareMegan any mercy at all as she slapped her again.

Everyone present couldn’t bear to watch the scene unfold, but none of them dared to interfere either. Everyone knew Cindy’s temper. If you dared to interfere, she would also make you cry.

Just then, a hand shot out to grab Cindy’s wrist just as she raised her hand to deliver another slap.

Obviously, it was Alex.

“Who are you? How dare you touch me! Let go, or are you tired of working here already? You’re fired!” Cindy said furiously as she scolded Alex.

Megan pulled on Alex, telling him not to do anything rash.

However, Alex ignored all of it, looking at Cindy with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “There is someone who will be fired indeed, but that person isn’t me, it’s you!”

What?

Everyone present was stunned, and they looked at Alex as if he was a lunatic.

Some were even whispering to each other, “Who is this person? How can he be such an idiot Ihat he even dares to mess with Secretary Weber?”

“Who knows?”

“Maybe he got too excited? Could he be Secretary Tyrell’s boyfriend? Is that why he stood up for her?”

Cindy was so angry, she laughed. “Fire me? What a joke. Are you out of your mind?”

As for Megan, she let out an anguished sigh in her heart. If he just let things be, she could probably still have a chance to keep her job. But after Alex stepped in and caused this ruckus, Cindy would definitely not let her off.

It was obvious that she would be fired.

Since it would have happened anyway, she pulled Alex away and faced Cindy. “This has nothing to do with him, Secretary Weber. If you have any grievances towards me, then come at me alone! If you want to fire me, then fine, I’ll acknowledge it! I don’t want to work here any longer with a person like you in the company anyway!”

“The reason I fell wasn’t because I was careless, but it was because I really can’t move the things anymore. You asked me, a woman, to move so many boxes of wine, and didn’t allow me to call for help at all. Did you have a hidden agenda? When have I offended you?”

Megan’s words made everyone focused on Cindy suddenly.

However, Cindy didn’t feel any shame for being exposed at all. Instead, she said, “That’s right, I was targeting you. I don’t like the looks of you, so what about it? The secretarial department belongs to me, Cindy Weber. I’m warning you, stay away from Chairman Graves! Forget it, get out of my sight. You can head to the company to pack your things and hand in your resignation tomorrow. You don’t need to attend the banquet tonight either. Get lost!”

“Fine, I’ll leave, did you think I like it here?”

Megan was about to turn around, intending to leave with a huff.

However, Alex pulled her back. “The one who has to leave is her, not you.”

Everyone sighed again. Was this person insane?

Who the heck was he?

Megan sighed, and said to Alex, “I know you’re reluctant to leave this job. I’m sorry, you may also be fired by this stinking lady because of me! But it doesn’t matter, I’ll introduce you to a better one.”

Cindy snorted coldly. “Megan Tyrell, you’re too naive. No other company will hire you in the future. I’ll make sure you won’t be able to live your life in California.”

All the employees watching were shocked, their eyes full of sympathy as they turned to look at Megan.

Just then, a voice came from the background.

“Oh, really? It seems that the person who won’t be able to continue living here should be you!”

“Cindy Weber, you’re fired!”

Jack and Leanne walked over together, looking at Cindy with cold eyes.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 395

“What?”

“It’s Miss Leanne! What did she say just now?”

“The one who’s fired isn’t Megan, it’s… It’s Cindy!”

At that moment, everyone was stunned speechless.

No one could figure out what had happened. Cindy was Leanne’s favourite. They even heard that Cindy had saved Leanne’s life before, hence the rumors of Cindy owning half the shares of Alluring Paradise. Usually, the two got on well enough that they seemed to be of one mind.

For her to suddenly say that Cindy was fired was completely unbelievable.

“Miss Leanne, are you mistaken?” Cindy was also stunned. “How could the one who’s getting fired be me?”

Jack said coldly, “It is you, Cindy Weber. From now on, you’re fired.”

He repeated his earlier words.

Everyone finally heard it crystal clear that it was indeed Cindy that had been fired.

Megan was as shocked as everyone else. This scene was just too unexpected!

Cindy stared at Jack, then burst out laughing suddenly.

“Who do you think you are, Jack? What right do you have to fire me? You’re just Miss Leanne’s husband, one who can’t even make her pregnant, I might add. You’re not qualified to fire me!”

As soon as she said this, everyone was stunned. They looked at Jack with weird expressions on their faces.

No man could bear this kind of insult.

Jack’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot in an instant.

Slap!

Leanne suddenly slapped Cindy, her eyes chillingly cold as she said, “Wouldn’t you know the reason I can’t get pregnant until now, Cindy? Whatever my husband said is also with my agreement. Let me repeat this, you are fired!”

“What?” Cindy’s face changed drastically, her head snapping to look at Leanne. In the next moment, she pursed her lips and softly whistled a sound.

Many people were confused. Was it possible that Cindy had lost her mind from the shock of getting fired? She was actually whistling at this time, how incredible.

Of course, this was no ordinary whistling. It was a special sound to control the worm.

With the existence of the parasite, not only could it prevent the woman from getting pregnant, but the one who held the mother parasite could use different sounds to drive the child parasite into movements. For example, biting.

The person with the parasite would start to feel unimaginable pain, to a point where they would have to obediently obey orders.

However… Nothing happened!

Leanne stood there quietly, her cold eyes looking at Cindy indifferently.

“How is that possible? How could this be?”

Cold sweat broke out on Cindy’s forehead. She whistled harder once again.

Just then, Alex pulled out the bottle from his pocket. The worm inside was wriggling around frantically.

“Is this the thing you’re trying to call out to?”

When Cindy caught sight of it, her mind buzzed and she looked like she was about to explode.

Everyone was horrified especially the women when they saw such a disgusting and terrifying worm. They quickly covered her mouths, exclaiming in surprise.

“This… What is that?!”

“It’s so disgusting, I’m getting goosebumps!”

Cindy violently made a grab for the bottle.

Thud!

Alex drew back his hand instantly and directly landed a hit on Cindy’s neck in the next second, knocking her out immediately.

Ignoring everyone’s surprise, Alex picked Cindy up and walked out towards the entrance.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 396

“Hey, where are you going, Alex? Why are you carrying her away?” Megan cried out in surprise and hurriedly chased after him.

In fact, everyone also looked equally as confused. No one understood why Alex suddenly brought out that disgusting bug and knocked Cindy out. It really puzzled them.

Leanne suddenly opened her mouth to speak at this moment, “Meg, you know Mr. Alex?”

‘Mr. Alex?’

Megan nodded without much thought. “We… Used to be college mates. He didn’t mean it, he was only trying to help me.”

Leanne’s eyes softened, then she patted Megan on the shoulder as she nodded. “Ah, so you’re Mr. Alex’s classmate. You’ll be the first secretary from now on. Help me host the commendation meeting matters. I have something to settle with Mr. Alex, I’ll be back in a bit.”

Megan’s eyes widened she thought that she was dreaming.

It wasn’t until this moment that she realized that Alex wasn’t an employee of Alluring Paradise, but that he and the married couple had been working together to handle Cindy Weber. This guy actually lied to her about being an employee and she was idiotic enough to fall for it. How hateful!

‘But didn’t he fall into such disgrace that he had to work as a housekeeper in his mother-in-law’s house? Are the rumors untrue after all?’

***

Bang!

Alex threw Cindy onto a bed. The proud figure bounced on the bed and almost fell off. This woke her up from her unconsciousness.

They were in a room that Jack had reserved, just below where the commendation meeting of the company was being held.

Jack rushed forward and delivered a slap to Cindy’s face. It was followed by a round of punches and kicks. Previously, he had held back because they were in front of the company employees. Now that there was no one else around, he no longer needed to hold back.

In just a few moments, the beautiful woman had been beaten up and bruised all over her face.

“Tell us, why would you plant that parasite in Leanne? She’s always treated you well!”

However, Cindy ignored Jack.

It was as though the blows landed on her body didn’t hurt at all.

In the end, Alex took action. With his Soul Banishing Touch, she only lasted a few seconds before spilling everything truthfully.

But her confession was unacceptable to Leanne. Her reason was that she loved her!

“Oh!” Alex’s mouth was wide opened as he stared at Cindy, before turning his gaze towards Leanne with a strange expression on his face.

To be honest, putting aside the various aura that surrounded them, the two were beauties who were eagerly pursued by men. It was a pity that something had gone differently with Cindy’s orientation. Cindy continued her confession with a melodramatic story.

But Alex was no longer interested in hearing more about her twisted and obsessive love. He smashed the glass bottle in his hand. Including the parasite that had been in Leanne.

Cindy spat out a mouthful of blood and rolled around the bed before finally falling to the ground, wailing the entire time.

With the child parasite dead, the mother parasite rebelled and started biting its host-she had lost at least half her life.

“Chairman Trent, Mrs. Leanne, I leave the rest to you! I still have something to settle, so I’ll be leaving!”

Leanne quickly reached out to stop him. “You haven’t even eaten anything, how could you leave? Come, you’re my benefactor, Mr. Alex! The banquet hall is too noisy so I’ve reserved a private room downstairs. It’s a nice restaurant there, let’s head down and eat together.”

Alex nodded gently, seeing that he would be unable to refuse.

Half an hour later, he was full with wine and food. Needing to answer the call of nature, Alex ran to the washroom. As he was bent down in the cubicle, he unexpectedly heard someone on the phone.

He ignored it at first, but when he heard the name ‘Dorothy Assex’, he perked up and listened intently.

“… Yes, Beatrice Assex drank quite a lot. She’s not drunk yet, though she’s quite bewitched by Mask.”

“The moment she heard it was news about Mask, she immediately agreed.”

“Brother Spark, are you ready? When you are, I’ll bring her up to meet you. Heh, could I have a little taste too? I also have… A very good impression of her.”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 397

After listening to the call from the man in the next cubicle, Alex’s face turned solemn immediately. How despicable and shameless!

Beatrice is his sister-in-law, and although she had many flaws, she was still family. How could he stand by and watch her be ruined?

The main point here though, is that she had been deceived because of his alias, ‘Mask’.

‘Seriously, I’m just speechless! To be obsessed to this extent, what else can I say about you?’

Alex didn’t make a sound and waited until the guy left. He didn’t act yet because the volume of the voice from the phone was soft. It would have been difficult for ordinary people to hear the conversation. However, for an expert like Alex, it was not a problem at all.

Through the crack in the door, he saw that the man was the groupie who had been with Beatrice before.

***

At the same time, two men were in room 0804 of the same building…

One of them was Alex’s former cousin, Spark Rockefeller.

If Alex could see him now, he would definitely be shocked because Spark was supposed to be sitting in a prison cell right now. He didn’t know that the case had not been handed over to the Divine Constabulary, but to the ordinary officials instead. To the Rockefeller family, this meant that there were many loopholes to be exploited.

They found someone to take the blame for the crime committed, stating that the account had been stolen and used. If that hadn’t worked, it was easy enough to forge a proof of certificate for a mental disorder.

Spark looked at the cameras that had been set up and coldly said to the man beside him, “Once I’m done playing, I’ll give her to you. Oh, Alex’s sister-in-law, I’m sure it’ll be satisfying!”

There was an extremely bitter expression on his face. Whenever he thought about Alex, pain would shoot through his body, especially his back. Because of the ten days he spent in jail, he had suffered unprecedented torture. This had caused him to suffer a pain that he would never forget in his entire life.

“As long as any woman has a shred of connection to Alex, I will sleep with them one by one and take a video of it. Then, I’ll send it to him. I’m sure the expression on his face will be very entertaining.

“Unfortunately, his wife stays at the company everyday. There isn’t even a chance to catch her. How vexing!”

The man next to him was a fighter that his father had hired at a very high price. Hearing those words, he said, “Young Master Rockefeller, don’t worry. I think it won’t be long before you get what you want. In addition, I think his mother-in-law is also verybeautiful. It’s possible that she would be even more satisfying than Beatrice Assex.”

When Spark heard that, an evil spread across his face, like a hungry wolf.

“So that’s the kind you like, eh? Good, that’s not a problem!”

He wondered, what would happen once he had all three of the Assex ladies brought down together when the time comes?

Alex would be so angry that he would throw up blood! He wanted Alex to live the remainder of his life in sorrow and regret from now on.

***

At the same time, in a certain private room in the restaurant, Beatrice’s face was flushed from all the wine that she had drank.

Mona Weiss was also with her.

The other two were Daya’s fans, one was Harry Trump, while the other was Yeferson. They were both from Michigan University.

“Of course I’m not lying to you, Beatrice. I was only able to contact Mask through my brother’s connection. You know that my cousin is from one of the army’s secret departments. It turns out that they’re working in the same unit.

“Come on, hurry up. Mask is really busy, once he sees you, he’s going to leave.”

The man named Yeferson was trying his best to persuade Beatrice.

It was also the same man who was on the phone in the washroom before.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 398

Beatrice was feeling dizzy. When she recalled the heroic image of Mask saving her, she became even more drunk. “Alright, I’ll go with you now.”

Beatrice followed Yeferson out of the room.

Only Mona and Harry were left.

Harry was more of an honest person, so he was nervous and said anxiously, “Won’t this be bad if we do this, Mona? Something big may happen when the time comes.”

Mona hesitated for a moment, then tapped on the message that she had just received, in forming her that she had just received half a million, before saying, “Why does it matter? Beatrice is almost out of her mind because of that Mask. Letting her lose out once will be good for her. It’ll keep her grounded without any of that fanciful thoughts and make her forget about Mask! It’s better if you think about how you want to spend the money we just received. Didn’t you want to buy a car?”

Harry immediately started laughing he heard her.

***

Beatrice followed Yeferson to the door of room 0804. She was super excited on the inside, what should she say first on their meeting?

However, the wine made it hard for her to think of anything at all.

She even felt that her body was unusually warm, like a fire was burning in the area under her belly.

She didn’t care though, because she was going to see Mask soon, and the excitement overtook everything else she was feeling.

But she would never have expected that her own best friend had sold her out. A drug had been mixed into the wine that she drank.

Click!

Just then, the door to the room opened.

Spark, who was wearing a mask, stood at the door.

“B-Brother… Mask? I…” Beatrice stammered nervously. Because Spark had deliberately dressed up as Mask, coupled with the effect of the drug and alcohol, she was completely unable to tell the difference.

“That’s me. You’re here, come in!” Spark smiled, Beatrice looked even more attractive in her drunken state, and he couldn’t wait to start rubbing against her on the ground all night long. But he needed to restrain himself at this moment. He needed to properly play with her, and make sure to take all the pictures too.

He waved his hand, signaling for Yeferson to leave.

Although Yeferson really wanted to stay on and participate in the next part of the game, he could only leave when Spark didn’t say anything further.

When Beatrice entered the room, she caught sight of the cameras that had been set up, and was stunned for a moment. However, she didn’t think much of it, immediately saying, “Brother Mask, I… My name is Beatrice Assex. Thank you for saving me in the last concert. I… I’m here to thank you.”

“Well, it was just a small matter. Don’t worry about it.”

Once he had played the role of Mask and watched Beatrice slowly enter this state, he finally dropped all pretenses, pushing her onto the bed as he jumped on top of her.

“Ah, what are you doing? Let go of me!”

“What am I doing? Don’t you love me? I just want to love you properly… Isn’t it great that I’m fulfilling your wishes?” Spark roared with laughter.

“What? How could you do this… Ah, no! You’re not Brother Mask!”

“I’m wearing a mask, so I am Mask. Little beauty, don’t you feel hot? Don’t you feel desperate for the touch of a man? I’ll tell you the truth, you’ve already been drugged, and it’s too late to regret it now. It’ll creep up onto you soon enough. I heard that you’re virgin too, fabulous.”

A buzzing sound was echoing in Beatrice’s mind, she couldn’t accept what was happening.

She struggled frantically, but she could feel her strength waning. Instead, the desire in her heart had been amplified, and some part of her actually felt that Spark was Mask.

“No! No!” The last shred of reasoning made her shake her head and struggle harder as tears of regret sliding down her eyes silently.

She knew that she was going to give in to her fate soon with no way to escape.

Spark got even more excited. He tore off Beatrice’s jacket easily, and was about to pull off her pants when suddenly, a faint voice spoke, “Did you get a kick out of playing pretend?”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 399

Spark was shocked, and his head whizzed around to look behind him only to find a masked figure looking at him coldly as he stood next to the camera.

“Y-You…who are you?!”

The excitement in Spark died out immediately, like a flame that had been extinguished. His eyes were glancing around, looking for someone, for his bodyguard.

His bodyguard should obviously be in the washroom, but how had he not come out yet? Why wasn’t he reacting?

“You’re pretending to be me, and you’re asking who I am?”

Alex raised his leg, kicking Spark and sending him somersaulting through the air. His body hit the bedside table and blood flowed freely from his forehead.

Beatrice struggled to get up. When she caught sight of another Mask, her mind was even more jumbled.

“You… Are you the real Brother Mask?”

Alex’s brows furrowed, and he nodded. He didn’t want her to know that he was Mask.

He had planned to let Spark play pretend as Mask for a bit, deliberately making her suffer a certain degree of persecution and fear. Let her learn her lesson.

Only then did he make his appearance.

“That’s great, Brother Mask, I…”

The effect of the drug burst out suddenly. She started to lunge towards the real Mask. She hugged him fiercely, pursing her red lips.

Slap!

Alex was completely merciless, and slapped Beatrice on her face.

“Huh? Why did you hit me?” Beatrice’s mind started to clear up.

“Because you’ve been drugged, and you’re confused. I’m waking you up.”

Beatrice’s eyes were rimmed red, and her face felt hot as she lowered her head. “Oh, thank you.”

Alex shook his head. This time, he knocked her out.

Spark clutched his bleeding forehead, his face full of dread as he shouted loudly, “Ah Jones! Brother Jones! Come out!”

He was shouting for his bodyguard.

“Are you talking about the guy in the washroom? Sorry, he’s dead!” Alex said nonchalantly, taking off his mask as he did so.

“Alex? It’s… It’s you!”

Spark almost started freaking out the moment he saw Alex’s face.

“You’re the Mask at Daya’s concert?”

He really hadn’t expected this. How could there be such coincidences in the world? So, the man that Beatrice had been going on and on about was actually her own brother-in-law?!

Alex didn’t deny or admit it. He only shook his head and said, “Spark, I thought you were in prison for a time. Since we’re family, I was lenient to you, giving you back your life temporarily. Unfortunately, it seems that you don’t know how to cherish that, and once again, you’ve done something that deserves death.”

Alex sighed, then continued bluntly, “Let’s do it this way, then. I’ll let you choose how you want to die!”

He had heard everything clearly.

Spark had plans not only to deal with Beatrice, but also Dorothy and Claire. How could this threat be allowed to live?

Spark was in complete panic right now!

He knew that Alex’s strength and martial arts skills were not something he could ever hope to overcome.

Bam!

He knelt on the ground, bitter tears leaking from his eyes. “Spare my life, Alex. I know I was wrong, I really know that. My obsession with revenge blinded me, please spare me. I… I’ll be your lap dog in the future, I won’t even think of going against anything you ask me to do… I’ll also give you back Rockefeller Group, I’ll give everything back, okay?”

Alex shook his head. “It’s too late!”

Seeing that the expression on Alex’s face remained unchanged and his heart was already determined, Spark jumped up and said, “Do you really dare to kill me, Alex? Don’t forget that society is under the rule of law, and this is a hotel. There are cameras everywhere. If you kill me, you’ll be sentenced to death too.”

“Are those your last words?” Once Alex finished speaking, he glanced at Beatrice.

Although she had been knocked out, the effect of the drug was still in her body and had not been removed. If the drug remained in her body for a long time, it would cause problems in the future.

Spark took the chance while his attention was elsewhere to run out.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 400

Alex reached out into the empty air, gathering his Chi and grabbed Spark directly through the air and pulled him back. Then, he used the palm of his hand to lightly tap Spark’s head.

Bang!

Spark groaned softly, falling to the ground. He wasn’t hurt on the outside, but the tissues in his brain had been completely destroyed before he breathed his last breath.

“Since we’re relatives, I’ll give you an easy death! Farewell!”

Alex beheaded Spark with a single blow indifferently.

This wasn’t the first time he had killed someone, and it seemed to have become a common occurrence.

Then, he gave Anna a call. “I have something that I need your help with. I just killed two people.”

The way he said it sounded like it had been as easy as slaughtering two chickens.

The problem was, when Anna received the call, she was in the shower. Her mood plummeted immediately. “Are you serious? You just killed two people and you’re telling me that? Can’ t you handle it yourself?”

“No,” Alex said.

“I’m not free right now, I’m taking a shower,” Anna replied.

Alex was speechless. “You can take a shower later.”

“I hate it the most when someone bothers me while I’m taking a shower.”

“Could it be that you’re having some personal me time during your shower?” Alex couldn’t stop the images that appeared in his mind, his breath becoming laboured immediately. Before Anna could explode, he quickly threw an incentive out. “I can improve your Dragon-Tusk Punch.”

There was silence from the other side for two minutes before Anna finally said, “Give me the address, I’ll be there soon.”

Then, the call was cut off.

Alex put on the mask once again and helped Beatrice get dressed.

In the past, he had occasionally seen her wearing sexy pajamas, but it was a rare sight now. He couldn’t help but admit that the two Assex sisters have definitely inherited all the good points that Claire had. There was no doubt as to why she was called the campus belle.

As for her bust…

Well, Alex had washed her clothes countless times, so he was extremely familiar with it. Even the one she was wearing right now was one that he remembered very well and had hand washed before.

After taking a look at her, he didn’t dare to waste anymore time and quickly helped her get rid of the drug in her body.

Just then, he heard movement outside the door. He thought it was Anna who had reached quickly. But when he opened the door, Yeferson fell in.

“Ah, Brother Spark. Are you done?”

He thought Alex was Spark, since they both wore masks.

“Yup!” A cold glint came from Alex’s eyes.

“Then, could you let me have a round?”

Alex nodded, opening the door fully.

Yeferson was overjoyed as he crab walked sideways into the room.

Then, he saw Spark lying on the ground. “Y-You’re not Brother Spark. Who are you?”

Alex calmly said, “Weren’t you trying to help Beatrice look for me? Well, here I am.”

“M-Mask?”

Alex pointed to Beatrice. “Do you still want a go?”

Yeferson was tongue tied. “A… A…”

Alex casually patted him with his palm, his eyes cold and sharp as a knife. “I’ll send you off.”

Ten minutes later, Anna arrived. She had also brought with her a few members of the Divine Constabulary. Her hair was still dripping wet.

‘She really was taking a shower just now,’ Alex thought to himself.

“Huh? Didn’t you say there were two? Why is there an extra one now?”

“Hades wanted to take him, what else could I do?” Alex shrugged.

After learning what had transpired here, Anna cursed loudly. For women, these types of low life scum were what they hated the most. Then, she said, “Fine, I’ll deal with things here. Take her with you when you leave. Oh, and remember your promise.”

“While you’re dealing with things, I’ll take her off your hands then!”

Anna nodded.

Half an hour later, Beatrice woke up and found herself lying in the courtyard of her villa with a letter on her body.
