The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 863
ire Assex was now in a mood that could be described as extremely depressed.
There was an old saying that one must always suffer for one’s own mistakes.
As a woman who was obsessed with money, ire had recently seeded in driving her son-inw
away. After that, she realized that he was actually a wealthy person who was making more and more
money, and that such attractive sums of money had nothing to do with her.
But all that money should have belonged to her!
She wondered if she would wake upughing from her dreams if she had so much money.
But…
“Dorothy, have you… Have you been in touch with Alex recently?” ire asked.
“We’ve already divorced. Why would we still keep in touch?” Dorothy raised her brows and nced at
her mother while she spoke.
“Oh, I’m just… I’m just worried about you. You’re not young anymore, and you got divorced. What I
mean is, if you really can’t stop thinking about him, you can go and look for him. I won’t be against it
anymore.” ire didn’t mind asion ally stooping low to be a rich woman.
“Have you forgotten about where the scar on your face came from?” Dorothy asked.
“Er… This… This was an ident. Which rich person wouldn’t attract attention from others? We’ll just
have to get a few bodyguards. Look at those celebrities who have seven or eight bodyguards around
them all the time. Since Alex is so rich, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to hire a dozen or so
bodyguards, right?” ire asked.
Dorothy shook her head without saying anything.
When ire saw how her daughter responded, she felt truly remorseful. “Dorothy, how’s Assex
Construction doing? Did you make any money? You invested so much money in thepany
previously. Has there been any returns?”
“It’s not too bad. It’s an entire process. Don’t be in a hurry,” Dorothy said.
“How can I not be in a hurry? We’re running out of money. Can you give me a few hundred thousand
dors? I want to buy the Lush Scar Removal Cream,” ire said.
She did use a little of itst time and it was indeed effective.
Dorothy pursed her lips. “Alex gave you a bottlest time, but you threw it away. Who can you me?
I’ll get you another bottle in a few days. I don’t have any money right now. There’s a bunch of bills I
need to pay for Assex Construction.”
Hearing this, ire felt even more bitter and remorseful.

At the same time, in California’s Rockefeller family, the folks weren’t doing too well.
Grandpa Rockefeller had passed away, and Spark Rockefeller died too. The saddest thing was that
even John Rockefeller had slipped into aa. He nowy on the bed and was unable to move. He
couldn’t deal with any business, and even needed to be taken care of by other people.
Meanwhile, without John’s dominant control, Rockefeller Group started to waver.
Noah Rockefeller, who had temporarily taken over his position, wasn’t capable enough to persuade
everyone. He made several strategic mistakes consecutively, and he had long lost the charisma toOriginal from N?velDrama.Org.
lead.
Shareholders of thepany were beginning to fight for power, and nobody was willing to give in to
each other.
In fact, fights even broke out during the shareholders’ meeting. They had differing opinions, and some
were already sneakily selling off their shares. The biggest concern was that if Rockefeller Group
crumbled, its share price would plummet. When the time came, these people would have nobody to cry
to.
Right then in Rockefeller Manor, the primary members of the Rockefeller family were gathered for an
important family meeting.
The person who spoke up was Noah’s eldest daughter, Carol Rockefeller.
“The appearance of Lush Cosmetics’ e cream in California has already severely impacted our
market share. This is also because they are mainly focusing on high-end products. Once theyy a firm
foundation, we’ll suffer even greater losses.”
