The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 780

The woman who got out of the car was Brittany, who hadn’t been back for quite a while. After realizing who it was, Claire almost wanted to run away and make an escape. Brittany noticed her nervousness and smiled coldly as she approached Claire. “So, Ms. Bardot, why have you
been waiting at my house?” Claire clenched her fists to muster up more courage. She smiled and said, “Oh, hello, you just came back, my
dear in-law, I… ” Brittany interrupted her. “Stop right there, we’re no longer in-laws, don’t call me that.” Claire smiled awkwardly. “Oh don’t say that. Once in-laws, always in-laws, right?”
Brittany’s expression darkened. “Claire Bardot, what are you even saying? My son has gotten a divorce with
your daughter, so how are we still in-laws? Our family doesn’t have the luck to be your in-laws! Just tell me
what you’re here for. But I’ll have you know that we don’t welcome you. ” Claire insulted Brittany in all the ways she could in her mind. However, she continued to put up a smile.
“Well, I’m just here to talk to Alex.” Brittany refused. “Talk to me instead!”
“Uhm… Well, alright! Our children’s divorced was just caused by a misunderstanding! I have wronged Alex
in the past, so it ended in such a way. I noticed that both of them had been quite miserable after the divorce, so I’m starting to regret my decision. That’s why I’m suggesting for them to remarry. They’ve been through a
lot, and it hasn‘ t been easy. I admit to my mistakes now, so please, my dear in-law, I promise to treat Alex
as my own.”
Claire’s father was a professor and she had studied in university as well, so she definitely had a way with

words. Upon listening to this, Brittney‘s rage went down significantly. No one would ever got angry at someone who
spoke nicely. However, Brittany had never considered letting her son get back together with Dorothy. “What’s the point in
changing things now? They’ve divorced, so why remarry? Do you think you can put a shattered mirror back
together?”
Claire was quite a dramatic person and would do anything for money. She slapped herself, looking extremely pitiful as she cried. “This is all my fault! The two children love each
other so much, so deeply! I’ve watched them grow together when you were still in a coma. The one who
interfered was Joanne!”
“When tragedy struck your family, the old lady just refused to let them get married. My daughter had to stab
herself in the heart to be able to marry him!
You have no idea how frightening it was. Alex had stabbed
himself for her a few days ago too! These two just love each other too much!” She even managed to let a few drops of tears stream down her cheeks. Brittany seemed slightly swayed. She glared at Claire. “And now you’re regretting your actions? Did you forget how you treated my son in the
past?”
Claire said, “Oh in-law, you’re a mother too, so you should be able to understand. Before you woke up, all
your son did was take care of you. He didn’t earn a single penny, he even asked our family for money every
single month! Do you know just how people gossiped about us behind our backs? They said that we’ve found
a loser as our son-in-law! But my daughter is one of the prettiest girls in California.”
“Dorothy may not mind the insults, but I’m her mother and I felt upset for her!
I’m a widow, and my daughter
is finally becoming more successful now, yet my son-in-law did nothing but burden us! What do you expect
me to do? But now that you’re awake, I’m not as upset anymore. Let’s just let the two children be. I can tell
