The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 554

She had even said that he was a liar with poor acting skills. She also said that she was Lord Lex Gunther in his
face. At that point, she suddenly thought of dying!
Would Lord Gunther kill her?
And thus, the reason she didn’t pay much attention even when news of Madam Joanne’s death reached her.
She only had one thought in her mind, and that was to figure out whether or not the person yesterday really
was Lex Gunther, California’s underworld king. When Alex walked through the doors, he immediately saw Lex’s face on the TV screen. His eyes flashed. Then, he glanced at Claire, who was clearly shocked and frightened and chuckled.
As expected, when Claire saw Alex, she immediately pointed to the TV screen and asked with a tone of
urgency, “Tell me honestly, the person who came to your house to look for you yesterday. Was it him? Lex
Gunther from Thousand Miles Conglomerate?” Dorothy’s expressions were that of great surprise. What was going on?
Yesterday, she had personally felt that Lord Gunther wasn’t such a reliable person, and when Claire pointed it
out, she also believed that he was someone Alex had found to act like him. This was because she personally never knew who Lex Gunther actually was. Since she had met the man

yesterday, the memory of him was still fresh on her mind. Now, compared to the man on the TV screen…
The similarities were uncanny, and they were clearly recognizable. It was the same person, after all.
“Hubby, the person yesterday… Didn’t you get him to pretend to be Lex Gunther?” Dorothy asked in

my god, what have I done? That’s California’s underworld king. He… He wouldn’t rush in with a bunch of
people, slice me up and feed my remains to the dogs, would he?”
Claire asked, evident desperation clouding
her tone. Alex wanted to scare her, and so he nodded intentionally. “Well, what you said is not entirely impossible. He’s Lord Lex, after all, the head of all of California’s gangsters.” Thump!
Claire had fallen to the ground on her butt, her legs spread apart in an undignified pose. Her face had gone
completely white, and she looked ghastly. Dorothy was in a more normal state, asking, “How did you meet Lord Gunther? Seeing the way he behaved
yesterday, it seems he respects you a lot.”
Alex had wanted to say that he had once saved his life and that he was also Waltz’s godfather. But when he
thought about the unfinished scene in the toilet and the fact that Waltz had always wanted to sleep with him, and how he had gotten out of the predicament with Dorothy about Michelle, he immediately decided to be
more tactful. “I went through the connections I had with the Yowell family. Lord Gunther probably needs to give them
