The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 863

Claire Assex was now in a mood that could be described as extremely depressed.
There was an old saying that one must always suffer for one’s own mistakes.
As a woman who was obsessed with money, Claire had recently succeeded in driving her son-in-law away. After that, she realized that he was actually a wealthy person who was making more and more money, and that such attractive sums of money had nothing to do with her.
But all that money should have belonged to her!
She wondered if she would wake up laughing from her dreams if she had so much money.
But…
“Dorothy, have you… Have you been in touch with Alex recently?” Claire asked.

“We’ve already divorced. Why would we still keep in touch?” Dorothy raised her brows and glanced at her mother while she spoke.
“Oh, I’m just… I’m just worried about you. You’re not young anymore, and you got divorced. What I mean is, if you really can’t stop thinking about him, you can go and look for him. I won’t be against it anymore.” Claire didn’t mind occasion ally stooping low to become a rich woman.
“Have you forgotten about where the scar on your face came from?” Dorothy asked.
“Er… This… This was an accident. Which rich person wouldn’t attract attention from others? We’ll just have to get a few bodyguards. Look at those celebrities who have seven or eight bodyguards around them all the time. Since Alex is so rich, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to hire a dozen or so bodyguards, right?” Claire asked.
Dorothy shook her head without saying anything.
When Claire saw how her daughter responded, she felt truly remorseful. “Dorothy, how’s Assex Construction doing? Did you make any money? You invested so much money in the company previously. Has there been any returns?”
“It’s not too bad. It’s an entire process. Don’t be in a hurry,” Dorothy said.
“How can I not be in a hurry? We’re running out of money. Can you give me a few hundred thousand dollars? I want to buy the Lush Scar Removal Cream,” Claire said.
She did use a little of it last time and it was indeed effective.
Dorothy pursed her lips. “Alex gave you a bottle last time, but you threw it away. Who can you blame? I’ll get you another bottle in a few days. I don’t have any money right now. There’s a bunch of bills I need to pay for Assex Construction.”
Hearing this, Claire felt even more bitter and remorseful.
