The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 325


    “There are so many people here today!” said Hailey with a smile on her face.


    The white dress she wore gave her a mature and virtuous look, and she was only older


    than Alex by two years. She was also a rich young woman who ran a beauty salon and


    knew how to upkeep herself well. If she deliberately dressed up as a college student, no


    one would even bat an eye at it.


    “Who is she?” ire asked as she frowned, thinking that the woman in front of her


    looked familiar.


    “It’s Charles’s wife, Charles from Waylon Realty,”


    Dorothy whispered in ire’s ears before stepping forward to greet the woman.


    Her construction materialspany had gotten the favor of a big shot such as Charles,


    so it was only natural to build a good rtionship.


    She stepped forward, smiling. “Sister Hailey, allow me to introduce my mother to you,


    and this is my Aunt…”


    Hailey obviously knew who ire was. Thest time they had gone to the Assex family


    residence to look for Alex, she had witnessed her spiteful attitude with her own eyes.


    Later on, she heard about the conflict between the two families from Brittany. Thus, she


    didn’t have the slightest affection for these people. If it weren’t for Alex’s sake, she


    wouldn’t have given the slightest face to Dorothy.


    Her beautiful eyes swept past the room, letting out a soft hum as she returned the


    greeting.


    “Sister Dorothy, I would like to borrow your husband. Could you lend him to me


    for the day?”


    ire frowned at Hailey’s ambiguity.


    Dorothy however, remainedpletely unaffected. She smiled and said, “Go ahead,


    you can have him as long as you want.”


    Hailey giggled. “Really, you won’t be secretly jealous, right?”


    “Sister Hailey, you’re really funny… How could I? Even if l don’t trust him, I definitely


    trust you!”


    “Alright, then I’m taking him! Don’t worry. I just need him to help me with a favor.”


    Having said that, she looked at the Assex sisters and added, “Feel free to roam about,


    but… Don’t go upstairs.


    My godmother doesn’t like people invading her personal space.


    If anything goes missing… Well, I can’t say for sure what will happen.”


    Hearing her words, ire and everyone else flinched, their expressions turning sour.


    Dorothyughed bitterly. She knew about the conflict between her own mother and her


    mother-inw, so of course, Hailey would also be made known.


    Dorothy was also well


    aware of what kind of person her mother was, but ire was still her biological mother,


    and she didn’t have any choice when it came to that.


    Alex handed the key over to Dorothy before bidding his goodbyes, then left the vi with


    Hailey.


    The moment they left, Beatrice jumped into a fit. She had been in an awful mood since

    the beginning.


    “What was that? Treating us like we’re some thieves? If anything goes missing?”


    “Who was that vixen? Borrowing a man in public… How shameless could she get?!


    Dorothy, you have to buck up. Don’t wait until your husband bes a piece of meat to


    be thrown to the dogs. Being borrowed like this, he won’t be returned one day!”


    “Did you listen to how she spoke?


    Shepletely considered herself the master of this


    house. Dorothy, you’re the rightful owner!”


    Dorothy shook her head. “Aunt, this house originally belonged to her. She’s my


    mother-inw’s goddaughter.”


    Adrianna was taken aback, then startedughing loudly. “So it turns out that it’s not


    even your own house, sister.


    I’m afraid that this is just a brief but empty bout of joy for


    you. If you move this sofa, you’d be considered a thief.”


    ire’s heart sank dramatically.


    Sternly, she roared, “What’s so funny that you’reughing? Don’t you want your two


    million dors?


    Why aren’t you hurrying to look for it?”


    ***


    Alex walked behind Hailey, watching her hips sway. His thoughts flew back to that


    particr morning.


    ‘Bah! Why am I thinking about that?!’


    Alex cursed himself, suppressing all those thoughts in his mind. Instead, he asked,


    “Sister Hailey, what did you need help with?


    Oh, right, where’s Charles and Zoey? I


    haven’t seen them the entire day.”


    “Charles has gone to the Imperial Capital on a business trip, and Zoey has gone to her


    grandmother’s house by the countryside. My parents missed her.”


    Alex was surprised.


    “Your hometown is in the country?”


    “What, you have something against country folk? Who weren’t farmers three


    generations ago?”


    “No, whatI meant was, based on the way you carry yourself, one can’t possibly tell that


    you’re a country girl.”
