The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 470

On the road, Madame Claire Assex was talking to Alex Rockefeller in excitement. “Alex,
I can’t believe you’re Stone Gambling Prince. You’ve kept it a fine secret. With such
amazing abilities, you must have started out a long time ago. Why did Dorothy have to
work so hard to run a company? Why don’t we go stone gambling later? We’ll earn lots
of money. What do you think, my good son-in-law?”
All of a sudden, Alex had turned into a good son-in-law.
“Mother, I was just lucky that day. Did you really think I was a stone gambling expert? If I
were to go stone gambling again, I’m afraid you might not even have pants to wear,”
Alex said.
When Madame Claire heard this, she felt like a deflated balloon.
But quickly, she continued, “What about the jadeite? I don’t believe what you told Mr.
Lee.
You had moved out for a long time when that happened.”
“I sold it,” Alex said.
“Where’s the money?” Madame Claire asked.
“I gave it to my mother.”

“What? Did you give all of it to your mother? Am I not your mother-in-law? How could
you not give me a single cent? Such a good son-in-law you are,” Madame Claire
snapped, obviously furious.
“Mother, my mother-in-law intends to do great things with that money. She’ll be using it
for business. What would you use it for? You’d either spend it on stocks or buy all sorts
of useless stuff. You even went stone gambling after watching other people do it. I’ll tell
you, you are not allowed to go again. Honey, you’re not allowed either! You’ll lose nine
times out of ten. If that happens, our family will go bankrupt. Do you understand?” Lady
Dorothy said.
“Yes, honey!” Alex made a verbal promise, but he was thinking about when he could go
gambling again in his heart.

Meanwhile, at the Assex family’s place, Madame Joanne was with Anderson Assex and
his daughter.
“Grandma, you didn’t get to see the poor state Madame Claire Assex was in. Her nose
was bruised, and her face, swollen up.
She was even howling like a dog on the ground.
It felt great! Moreover, we destroyed everything in her house. Haha! I’d like to see where
else they can move to,” Lady Emma Assex gushed enthusiastically.
Madame Joanne seemed filled with excitement. “Good. We need to teach these b*tches
a lesson.”
Lady Emma suddenly took something out of her pocket. “Grandma, look what I found.
It’s a pearl necklace. I remember Madame Claire used to wear it, and she treated it like
a treasure. I’ve taken it away. It’s a gift for you, Grandma! Madame Claire doesn’t
deserve something so fine. You should wear it, Grandma.”
Lady Emma joyously helped Madame Joanne put it on. “It looks beautiful. It really
doesn’t seem out of place,” she complimented.
Madame Joanne chuckled. “My dear granddaughter, you’re the best.”
