The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 457

Alex’s gaze turned cold when he saw Roger Graham. This man was Louis Graham,
Paradise Corp’s president’s son.
Alex had also met Louis when he attended the Rockefeller family’s funeral service.
Louis received a lot of help from William Rockefeller in the past, but he had later jumped
ship to work for John Rockefeller.
In other words, like father, like son.
Roger used to follow Alex around during their time in college. Afterward, when things
went south in the Rockefeller family, and Alex turned from a rich, upper-class child into a
man who depended on women for survival, Louis immediately changed his attitude.
Louis started calling Spark Rockefeller his buddy. On many occasions, Louis kept
throwing Alex under the bus and made sarcastic remarks about Alex behind his back.
Louis and his entire family were a bunch of traitors.
Alex glanced at Maya Howards. He found it odd that she would actually tolerate this
fellow sitting at their table. In the end, Maya turned to look at Alex with a playful gaze.
Alex was truly speechless. Did she want to watch him humiliate other people this badly?
Maya showed a pretty smile. “Roger Graham. If I remember correctly, you used to follow
Alex around and called him your boss.
You were so eager to please him. If he asked

you to head east, you wouldn’t dare head west. Have you gotten bolder now? How
could you dare speak to him like this? Aren’t you afraid something unfortunate might
happen to you?” she asked.
Roger was completely charmed by Maya’s smile. “Maya, what you speak of happened
ages ago.
Now, everyone in California knows that Alex is a man who depends on
women for a living. He doesn’t deserve to be my boss. He doesn’t even deserve to call
me his boss,” he said.
“This means you’re a traitor!” Maya snapped.
Roger was stunned. He felt his face burning up, and he was tremendously annoyed.
Meanwhile, Alex put his food down and looked at Roger. “Can you get lost now? Don’t
disturb us while we eat!”
Roger, already enraged and embarrassed after Maya called him a traitor, slammed his
hand on the table. “Alex, are you living in your dreams? Think you’re still the same
person you were a year ago? You’re a broke b*stard now, and you even need to rely on
your wife to live. How dare you speak to me like this?” Roger roared.
“I get to depend on my wife because I’m capable of doing so. What does it have to do
with you anyway? Get lost!” retorted Alex.
Alex pushed Roger aside. “If you keep annoying us, you’ll regret it,” Alex said coldly.
Maya chuckled. “I thought you’d beat him up,” she said.
Alex took a sip at his beverage. “I’m not a barbarian. Hitting a traitor like him would only
make my hands dirty,” he said.
“What did you say?” Roger’s face turned sullen.
“Rockefeller, get out of here right now. You’re not welcome here,” he added.
“On what basis? Do you own this restaurant?” Alex asked.
Right then, a woman with thick makeup walked over. “I own this restaurant,” she said.
Alex looked up. “Shayna Morrison? Is this your restaurant?” he asked in a surprised
tone.
It turned out that this woman was also his classmate from before.
Back in college, Shayna even pursued Alex! Unfortunately, her looks were too average
for Alex’s fancy.
For this reason, she had always held a grudge against him.
