The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 1284


    When Alex Rockefeller turned around, he discovered that Maya Howards had alsoe down.


    Maya could feel what Alex was feeling. She walked over and pulled him into her arms. “If you feel like


    crying, go ahead! I know how much harder it is to forget your first love, not to mention bidding farewell


    under such circumstances.”


    At first, Alex felt heartbroken. However, after being gently approached by Maya like this, and smelling


    her strong fragrance, all his emotions from before disappeared. “I don’t want to cry! She isn’t exactly


    my first love. It ended before it even began,” Alex said.


    But was this what he really thought?


    Comparing Hayley Hanson and Lady Dorothy Assex, who was more important to him?


    Alex actually didn’t have an answer!


    “I didn’t think Papa’s daughter would be your first love,” Maya said.


    “Let’s go! She’s been affected by the Blood Curse. However, I know nothing about this kind of curse. If


    we want to rescue her, we must start with the Blood Cult! Unfortunately, the Blood Cult was annihted


    by the Justice Alliance of America over a century ago. Now, the members still alive have all gone into


    hiding. For the sake of their cult’s work, they are willing to sacrifice their lives at any given time. This is


    the most terrifying part. It’s almost like… They’ve been brainwashed,” Alex said.

    Maya sighed. “I didn’t think that Blood Curse would require one to drink human blood. It’s way too evil.


    In that case, do you think Papa Hanson has also been afflicted by such curse?” she asked.


    “Perhaps!” Alex answered.


    After that, the two of them returned to the first floor. In fact, they even sealed the entrancepletely.


    Although the blood pool Papa Hanson had created for his daughter was a little odd, it would still be


    beneficial for Hayley Hanson’s body even after Alex had amended the spell formation. The Life


    Extension Spell Formation ensured that Hayley wouldn’t die.


    After walking out of the vi, Anna Coleman bid farewell to Alex and Maya.


    Meanwhile, Alex and Maya slowly walked down the street.


    By then, the sky had already turned dark. When they checked the time, they saw that it was already


    five minutes to twelve.


    “Your birthday will end in five minutes,” Alex said to Maya. “In the end, I didn’t give you a worthy


    birthday gift,” he added.


    “Haven’t you already given me a gift? If you think that wasn’t enough, you can extend its time,” Maya


    said.


    She was referring to the kiss.


    Alex looked at her. Suddenly, he picked her up and pinned her against the trunk of a random BMW


    before kissing her passionately.

    The next day, certain news had spread throughout California.


    Rockefeller Group had gone through a change of hand. Previously, it had been taken away by John


    Rockefeller. Now, it returned to its founder, Madame Brittany Rockefeller. Moreover, Madame Brittany


    would now lead the well establishedpany in the cosmetics industry, Lush Cosmetics, to cooperate


    with Rockefeller Group extensively.


    As soon as the news came out, Rockefeller Group’s share price instantly skyrocketed and hit the


    raising limit.


    One ought to know that Rockefeller Group had gone downhill a year ago after it received negative


    media attention. Meanwhile, John and Noah Rockefeller weren’t exactly gifted at business


    management. As a result, Rockefeller Group had always been on a decline in the industry.


    In reality, many of Rockefeller Group’s shareholders were displeased with its performance. Now that


    Madame Brittany had made a forcefuleback, many shareholders of thepany seemed a s if


    they were on steroids. They were all prepared to make a great deal of money off a strong woman like


    Madame Brittany.


    However, during the general meeting of shareholders at ten that morning, over ten shareholders went


    through a reshuffle they had never experienced before in the face of Madame Brittany.


    Knock, knock, knock…


    After Maya walked in, she respectively ced nine document holders in front of nine people. “For the


    shareholders who have received a document holder, you have one day to cough up your shares. You’ll


    be given a fifty percent discount based on the market price. Thepany will repurchase all your


    shares,” Maya said.


    As soon as she said this, the shareholders who received the document holder all jumped out of their


    seats.


    “What? What right do you have to make us sell our shares? And a fifty percent discount?”


    “What is the meaning of this? Is this robbery? Madame Brittany, I’m afraid you must be dreaming,


    right?”


    “I disagree. I absolutely will not agree to this.”


    Madame Brittany smiled calmly before flicking a fingernail that she had just painted with nail polish.


    “What’s the hurry? You can all first take a look at the documents inside,” she said.
