The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 280


    With swift movements, Alex and Anna threw the three back into their car, climbing over


    the walls of the manor like roons.


    However, just as theynded on the ground inside, sharp beeping rm sounds were


    heard.


    “What’s happening? Are these infrared surveince cameras?”


    Both of them were stunned as they looked at each other, puzzled.


    Anna nodded. “Yeah, I was too careless.”


    Alex helplessly said, “I find you’re kind of amateur, could it be that you are a part-timer


    in Divine Constabry?”


    Anna fumed and said, “I’m an official member! Isn’t that just an rm? Why would we


    need to dismantle it beforehand? It’s just the same if I barge in openly.”


    Her team member earlier had given her the urate bearings of Pepper’s location.


    The two proceeded to rush to the north of the manor while ignoring the rms.


    Just then, a man in ck came to meet up with them. He was a member of Divine


    Constabry and a member of Sky’s team as well. He was in charge of gathering


    information and scouting the area.


    “She’s in there.” The man pointed toward one of the maids’ bedrooms but his


    expression seemed odd.


    Alex could sense an abnormal level of hormones within the man.


    Bang!


    Anna, the brute woman, immediately kicked the door open.


    At the same time, Alex noticed that the man in ck quickly retreated into the dark.


    After all, he wasn’t in the fighting units. Since Anna came and took over the situation, he


    had sessfullypleted his mission and he could leave immediately, as if he had


    nevere here in the first ce.


    Screams could be heard from the inside of the room. Alex was quite familiar with this

    room, so he stepped forward to turn on the light switch. After switching on the lights, he


    saw John in disheveled clothes, whereas their target, Pepper Kimmich, was wearing her


    clothes.


    “Oh Lord, my eyes!” Alex froze for a while and then smiled. “Oh, it’s Secretary Kimmich.


    Are you still working thiste at night? A secretary’s job must be pretty hard!”


    Only now did Alex realize the reason that guy earlier had such an odd expression.


    “Alex Rockefeller, it’s you. Why are you here? Who let you in?” John was enraged. After


    all, no one would be in a good mood after being exposed at a time like this, especially


    when he saw Alex whom he hated so much.


    Pepper was shocked as well. She was more terrified than John. That was because she,


    who tried to assassinate Alex on the hillside just a while ago, learned about ck


    Skeleton’s death. However, she believed that her identity had not been exposed. After


    all, she had been hiding her identity for years safe and sound.


    Hence, she knew that she had to keep herself calm and act normally in moments like


    these. This was why she still came over to the manor after receiving orders from John.


    Alex said calmly, “This is my manor, would it be a problem if Ie here and walk


    around? There’s still one month to go till it’s returned to its rightful owner. So, don’t you


    dare destroy anything… Such sneaky activities, you should avoid doing them too!”


    Pepper, who looked shy and embarrassed, was on the verge of tears. She really did


    look like a weak secretary, who was forced to obey her boss’s irrational orders. She


    might as well get an Oscar with such acting skills.


    Anna didn’t want to dawdle any longer, she wanted to reveal her identity and arrest


    Pepper. Suddenly, a group of people rushed over, they were the security guards and the


    members of Rockefellers. They hade over to check out what the nuisance was all


    about.


    Even Bill came while being pushed over by one of the caretakers.


    “Ah!”


    “Hubby, why are you here? Aren’t you working abroad? You… Ah! You two actually…”


    Olivia was deeply shocked as soon as she saw John and Pepper in such states. She


    only regained herposure after a while. In the next second, she madly rushed up to


    Pepper and attacked her, scratching her face and pulling her hair.


    In order to hide her identity, Pepper didn’t even retaliate despite possessing a cultivation


    base of Intermediate-Royal rank. She just dodged a few times, letting her face get


    scratched till several bloody wounds surfaced.


    John pitied Pepper, hence he pushed Olivia hard, causing her to fall to the ground.


    Olivia was really livid by his actions.


    Pepper sobbed uncontrobly. She hurriedly lowered her head and said “sorry” before


    trying to leave the room while covering her face. Everything unfolded just as she


    nned, as if all of this was natural and wless.


    However, at this moment, Anna blocked Pepper’s way and said calmly, “You can’t


    escape now.”
