The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 496

There was complete silence in the minivan, only the rotor sounds of the helicopter could
be heard, reminding them that they were getting further away from the land.
Boom!
Until a certain moment, the minivan suddenly landed with a loud sound.
Looking out of the windows, Alex and the rest found that they were now on the deck of a
cruise ship.
It was so isolated here that one would bail his eyes out and cry for help to
no avail.
As for the helicopter, it just flew away after setting the minivan down, deigning to even
care about them as if they were just completing a delivery.
“It seems there’s no one here?!”
Missy stuck her face onto the window and nervously looked outside but she couldn’t
catch any signs of life.
Hunter directly kicked the door open. After getting off the passenger seat, he yanked the
door to the rear seats open. He shouted at Alex, who was seated inside, “Get out, get
out of the car now!”

Alex patted Zendaya and said, “He’s telling us to get out of the car, Miss Zendaya.
Since he’s so fierce, we better get off now.”
Hunter’s expression darkened. “I’m talking about you. Only you, get off now! I am
counting down from three, if you don’t get off by then, I will break your legs!”
“Hunter, why are you doing this to Mr. Rockefeller? He has nothing against you, are you
nuts?” Zendaya retorted angrily.
Seeing Zendaya still backing Alex, Hunter couldn’t help but lose his cool.
“Zendaya, the patriarch promised me that he would give me your hand in marriage if I could achieve
Mystic rank. I’m confident thatl will definitely achieve Mystic rank in three months. When
the time comes, you will be my wife. You said, why did I target him? Because you are
my fiancée, and this b*stard tried to make advances to my fiancée! He should feel
fortunate that I did not throw him overboard immediately!”
“What?”
Zendaya’s expression changed drastically when she heard it as she had never
heard of such an arrangement.
Meanwhile, her first reaction was to clutch Alex’s arm, much to Hunter’s chagrin. He
extended his arm and wanted to yank Alex out of the minivan.
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out with a bang. Someone fired a shot near his feet, with the
bullet grazing his shoe sole. He trembled in fear and hurriedly hid in front of the minivan.
“Who is it?” He shouted.
“What’s the hurry? Isn’t it nice to take a look at the surrounding scenery while you are
still alive? ” A man’s slightly hoarse voice sounded in the dark.
Alex condensed his Chi onto his eyes, turning them into night vision, and looked toward
the direction of the sound. He could see a row of men standing on the balcony of the
deck’s second floor, all of them had weapons in their hands as they covetously eyed
them down.
The darkness of the night, along with the strong ocean breeze hid them from view. Even
Alex had not noticed their presence earlier until the gunshot.
Hunter stole a glimpse at the men and asked, “Who are you people? What do you
