The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 294

After leaving Rockefeller Manor, Alex Rockefeller quickly went to search for Dorothy
Assex.
That was because Hailey Lawson whispered in his ear that Dorothy went looking for him
earlier. According to Hailey, Dorothy was very worried and she seemed to have lost a lot
of weight.
In fact, she was in such a poor state that she nearly passed out. When Alex
heard this, he wished he could be next to Dorothy right away.
After the conflict with the Assex family, Alex had gone through one thing after another.
Throughout these ordeals, he was so preoccupied that he didn’t realize that his phone’s
battery had run out and automatically turned off. Since Dorothy couldn’t contact him,
she might have thought that he really did go on the run after committing murder.
She
must be worried sick. Alex borrowed Waltz Fleur’s cell phone and tried to call Dorothy.
It turned out that Dorothy’s phone was switched off.
“Mom, you should go back with Waltz first. I’m going to look for Dorothy,” Alex said
hurriedly.
“Why are you looking for her again?
Are you addicted to being abused? You still can’t let
her go?” Brittany Rockefeller was very mad. Whenever she thought of how Claire Assex
treated her son, she felt agitated.

“Dorothy has nothing to do with her mother. I’ve always thought of her mother as a
mentally sick patient.
There’s no reason to hold a grudge against a lunatic, right? Okay,
I have to go,” Alex said.
Alex rushed into his car and drove away hastily. Very soon, he arrived at Assex Villa.
To his surprise, he witnessed Claire arguing with Beatrice Assex. This was
unprecedented because these two had always agreed with each other.
This time,
however, they were quarreling more fiercely than ever. In fact, the neighbors next door
had stopped outside to watch them fight.
Alex saw that Beatrice had a band-aid on her forehead. Clearly, she was wounded.
After listening to their argument for a while, he figured out what was going on. However,
he couldn’t care less. “Where’s Dorothy?”
Alex asked.
In the heat of the moment, Madame Claire directed all her anger at Alex when she saw
him. “What are you doing in my house? Who let you in? Do you think this is your home?
Get the hell out, or I’ll cut you into pieces with a kitchen knife for trespassing!” She
yelled.
Alex ignored her.
After shouting Dorothy’s name a few times and not receiving any
response, he directly ran upstairs.
Beatrice was in a dilemma, unsure if she should say anything. In the end, she kept
quiet.
Claire wanted to run after Alex, but her feet hurt whenever she walked. It was
impossible for her to catch up with him.
She was so angry that she started yelling for
help, claiming there was a thief in the house. However, all the neighbors knew Alex was
her son-in-law. Hence, they all just thought of it as an amusing joke.
After looking around, Alex still couldn’t find Dorothy. Alex ran down the stairs before
fixing his cold gaze on Beatrice.
“Where’s your sister?” He asked.
“Why should I tell you?” Beatrice snorted coldly.
Alex took a step toward her. His imposing manner was overwhelming.
Suddenly, he grabbed her by the collar of her shirt.
“Your sister’s phone is switched off.
