The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 301

“What? Cancel all collaborations?” Benny Assex and Madame Joanne’s facial
expressions changed drastically. Their knees were going soft, and they could barely
stand.
By now, their projects would have already started.
In order to get a lower price, Assex
Construction had ordered large bulks of materials. In fact, the capital investment they
made was even greater than before, they invested nearly all of Assex Construction’s
funds. If Waylon Realty cancelled all collaborations with Assex Construction, the latter
wouldn’t even be able to last a month.
“Mr. Carter… P-Please don’t joke with us. We’ve already signed the agreement in black
and white. How could you terminate our collaboration just like that?” Benny stuttered.
“Yes, Mr. Carter. If you do so, Waylon Realty will have to pay a huge penalty to
compensate us! Are you sure about that?”
Madame Joanne said threateningly.
“I’m very sure!” Charles Carter chuckled coldly.
Madame Joanne turned to look at Dorothy with a piercing gaze. “Mr. Carter, you
shouldn’t mix business with pleasure. Why are you breaking the contract for a woman in
such a rash manner?
I’m sure it won’t be good for your reputation, Mr. Carter. Besides,

if your wife found out about you messing around with Dorothy, she might not be very
pleased. Don’t you agree?” Madame Joanne said.
“What are you saying?”
Charles was stunned for a moment before he became enraged.
“Madame Joanne, watch your mouth! How dare you say that Ms. Assex and I… You’re
defaming me. If you weren’t Madame Joanne, I would ’ve slapped you!” He fumed.
“If there’s nothing between the two of you, why are you helping her?”
Madame Joanne’s
face turned pale.
“That’s because she’s my sister-in-law. Alex is my brother-in-law. D*mn it. The penalty
of breaking the contract is only 200 million dollars. Waylon Realty can afford it! But if
you want this money, you’d have to beat me in court first,” Charles said before bidding
farewell to Alex Rockefeller and Dorothy Assex.
He said they would sign a new
agreement the next day and left.
If Assex Construction was to bring this case to court, they’d have to wait several months
until the results came out. By then, Assex Construction would’ve closed down.
Madame Joanne sat on the ground and started crying loudly.
Benny felt immensely remorseful for his actions. However, Alex and Dorothy felt no
sympathy for the two of them.
The Assex family had stormed into this villa proudly, but they now left with their heads
hung low.
Claire was so engrossed in the thought of the wealth she would be surrounded with in
the future that she had forgotten that Alex had slapped her earlier.
Alex held Dorothy’s hand as they went upstairs. “Honey, was what Charles said true?
Are we really going to sign the contract tomorrow?” Dorothy still felt as if she was in a
dream.
“That’s what Charles said. We’ll do it. Since the Assex family treated you in such a way,
it’s time to teach them a memorable lesson. Otherwise, that old woman will always try to
harm us in different ways.”
Dorothy sat Alex down on a chair and started gently massaging his shoulders to reward
him. Alex was stunned.
He had never been treated like this before.
