The Pinnacle of Life

        
        

As soon as he got home, Alex started making more pills with the stove. When Michelle arrived, he

immediately helped her restore her core and aided her… Moreover, he had to help Nathan reform the Golden

Crushing Punch. In the end, he was exhausted out of his mind, falling asleep immediately as soon as night fell.

Waltz rushed over to him once again, lying down on his bed. Alex didn’t have the energy to chase her out this time, hence he just turned over and hugged her, falling into

deep sleep. The next day, Alex was studying the Stake of Exorcism, he wanted to reform it into his secret weapon. However, he received a call from Zendaya at three in the afternoon. “Alex, my filming team had filmed a few clips for the Lush Cosmetics commercials.

Are you free to come

over and review them now?” Zendaya asked nervously. She was hoping to see him again, but she was worried that she’d lose control over herself if she did. ‘This is so difficult.’

‘I know he has a wife, but I can’t help but think about him.’ Alex agreed cheerily. “Alright! Where are you? I’ll head over now!”

“Golden Universal, my company has an indoor filming studio here.”

“I’ll be there in a bit.”

At 4:20 pm, Alex drove to Golden Universal. Zendaya told him that the filming studio was on the eighteenth

floor. As he walked to the entrance, the guards blocked his way. Another man, who was wearing an elegant suit and shades, was blocked outside as well. He was holding a

bouquet of bright red roses. “What?

You’re here for Zendaya too?”

“Who are you? Do you think you can see her any time you want to?” The guard stared at Alex, noticing his casual clothes and empty hands. He furrowed his eyebrows, obviously

annoyed at the sight of him. He thought that Alex was one of Zendaya’s hardcore fans. “I’m Zendaya’s friend.” Alex said. “Everyone who comes here for her says that.

Just leave, Miss Zendaya is still filming, so she doesn’t have the

time for fans like you. Really now, as a fan, you should be more considerate of your idol. How could you

cause her more trouble?” Alex replied, “Miss Zendaya was the one who told me to come over.” The guard couldn’t help it and let out a chuckle.

Just then, another guard rushed over to the man, who was holding the bouquet of flowers. Apologetically, he

said, “Sorry, Mr. Ellington.

Miss Zendaya said that she has to meet up with a very important guest later, so

she doesn’t have the time to see you. Why don’t you head back first?”

‘Ellington?’ Alex froze. He was all too familiar with this name, Ellington was a star actor in the entertainment industry after all. If

Zendaya were to be one of the best female celebrities in America, Ellington was the male version of that. However, Ellington was not his real name.

His real name was Cory Blainey. He had previously acted as a musician named Ellington, hence many started calling him that after the movie

premiered. Alex really didn’t expect him of all people would be here in California, holding a bouquet of roses and hoping

to see Zendaya. ‘An admirer?’ Alex didn’t know why but he felt quite uncomfortable with this. “The guest that Miss Zendaya mentioned is me!”

Alex said to the guard. Ellington furrowed his eyebrows and turned to the guard. “Throw this guy out, he’s a sore to the eye! Who

does he think he is? All these fans are just plain idiots! Oh, by the way, get me a stool too, I’ll just wait for

Zendaya here.” A guard immediately rushed off to get a stool for Ellington, while the other walked up to Alex, trying to chase

him out.

Alex narrowed his eyes. “Let me give Zendaya a call.” The guard laughed. “You still want to put up the act? If you really could dial Miss Zendaya’s phone number,
