The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 288

Brittany looked as if she had been possessed by Khione, the goddess of ice and snow
to the Rockefellers and their guests. Every move she only made her aura grow colder
as she beat up the guards in her way. All of them fell to the ground, engulfed by
numbness.
Spark’s eyes were exceptionally wide in shock. “Holy sh*t. Did this bi*ch learn the Ice
Cold Touch? When did she become so strong?”
John’s mouth was agape. He had always been terrified of Brittany as his legs trembled
in fear.
“Out of my way!”
Brittany pushed John aside resentfully and walked towards the coffin
slowly. Everyone couldn’t help but stare. No one dared to stop them anymore. She then
picked up a flower to place on the deceased Bill’s casket.
Suddenly, Paige came forward and slapped Brittany’s flower out of her hands. “Don’t act
all sorry and sad. You two killed my dad! How dare you pay your respects to him? You
have no right!”
Brittany immediately slapped Paige, sending her falling to the ground.
“Do you not have a brain? It’s as if you don’t know who killed him!”
“I’m still his daughter-in-law. Even if he never treated us like family, I have to respect the

dead and forgive what he did to us. I came here to pay my respects and send him off on

home.”
Brittany shot Noah a dirty glare, her eyes were filled with hatred. However, she didn’t
leave even after she was asked to.
She stood aside and calmly said, “I thank all of you for coming here on behalf of
William.”
Olivia interrupted her. “You have been kicked out of the family. Besides, William is not
Dad’s biological son either! What makes you think you can thank the guests as a family
member?
Do you even know any of them?”
Brittany paid no attention to her words.
The guests, on the other hand, were extremely shocked…
“What?”
“William Rockefeller isn’t Bill Rockefeller’s son?”
“What does that mean?”
“I heard that William was just a child Bill picked up from the streets.”
“Ah, so that was what happened. Then they didn’t just kill him, they even came here to
ruin his funeral! They should be damned for life. How could they be so ungrateful?
They’re monsters!”
Such insults didn’t faze Brittany or Alex one bit.
They only stayed to wait until all the guests had arrived. They wanted to clear up the
misunderstandings the public had towards them. Alex had already thought of many
ways they could get the point across.
However, no one realized that Carol had gone missing. She had gone out to call the
cops.
“The CEO of Paradise Corp, Louis Graham, has come to pay his respects!”
Louis was wearing a black suit as he came forth to place a flower and presented a white
