Chapter 774
Claire fell on her behind out of shock.She was appalled after hearing Hailey’s words. All she could think of were the words ‘100 billion’, ‘richest woman in California’ and ‘richest woman in the world’.However, all these words were just mere dreams, vanishing in front of her eyes.She thumped her fist to her chest, regretting her actions greatly.Eloise, on the other hand, was shocked to her core. She couldn’t help but scold Claire inside her head.‘She used to be so smart back when we were classmates, yet now she just has the IQ of a rock.‘How could she not want such a good son-in-law? Is she trying to get God to become her son-in-law or something?’She was shocked and disappointed at the same time.‘If Alex was still Claire’s son-in-law, our friendship could have helped bring our business to newer heights, yet…’Just then, a gorgeous and alluring woman walked into the salon. She looked as if she was a beautiful woman who came out of an ancient painting.Her aura was inte

Thud.Claire fell back to the ground again. This time, it wasn’t out of shock nor disappointment, it was out of fear.Money had blinded her thoughts a while ago. However, with Waltz’s cruel words, she was able to snap back to reality.She finally realized that this woman in front of her was the CEO of Thousand Miles Conglomerate. This woman could easily have someone drown their whole family as long as she said so. Claire knew that her greed had drowned her senses, otherwise she wouldn’t even have thought of trying to take any of Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s shares.Even if she could take it, she wouldn’t be able to live to spend it.She was so scared that her whole body was shivering. She couldn’t even stand up and apologize after imagining the terrifying consequences of her actions.However, she couldn’t understand how Alex became the biggest shareholder of Thousand Miles Conglomerate.‘Was William the founder of Thousand Miles Conglomerate?’No matter what she was thinking

“Yep!”“That’s great! Charles would be delighted to hear this!”In just a few moments, they finished the tour.Although City Salon was luxurious, Waltz was not just any woman. Since she grew up in luxury, she lost interest fairly quickly. She asked Alex, “Brother, are you done with work here? If you are, let’s go. We just need to show up. More importantly, we need you to sign the contract to transfer shares.”Alex found out that Waltz had transferred Jerry and Fabio’s shares to him from Frank’s account.She didn’t do anything to Lex’s shares, mainly because Clay wasn’t back yet.They decided to wait until he’s back to discuss how it’ll be distributed.“Give me half an hour!”The four then went into the CEO’s office.Alex read through Sharpay’s proposal, which she had put a lot of effort in.Poor Sharpay had dolled up just to meet Alex. She had specifically picked out her clothes and bought them with a large sum of money. She originally thought that this was a chance for

Their mother’s words shocked them.Beatrice yelled. “Mom, what happened to you? Have you taken your meds?”The person who didn’t want the two to get back together the most was Beatrice.She knew that Alex was Mask, the man who had stolen her heart. She even dreamed about doing the deed with him in a forest clearing last night.When she woke up, she felt quite wet down there.Since Alex and Dorothy had gotten a divorce, she figured that it wouldn’t be a problem if she were to date him now. Moreover, she believed that they haven’t had sex during their marriage, so Dorothy wouldn’t be able to bash her for doing so.‘Yet Mom here wants them to get back together!‘Wouldn’t that mean I’d have no chance?’Claire scolded her. “You’re the one who hasn’t taken your meds! Do you think I’ve gone mad?”Beatrice said, “Why would you want them to remarry if you haven’t? You were the one who put a knife to your neck, forcing them to get a divorce! It’s not even been a few days and you’re regr

Alex was at the meeting when he received the call.The meeting was similar to what Waltz had said, ijust a mere meet-and-greet.The shareholders, managers and CEOs of the subsidiary companies were present in a large meeting hall. Many had seen just how powerful Alex and Waltz were, so they showed absolute respect towards them. Moreover, some fighters had been slightly scornful of Lex since he knew no martial arts.Fighters would tend to admire and worship the strong.Since Lex had no power nor skill, he basically built this business empire with the help of his three godchildren.However, now that Waltz had become the CEO, everything felt much more different. Moreover, Waltz’s man was almost as powerful as God itself.Their power was enough to have everyone bow down for them.Just then, a director said, “Mr. Rockefeller, you’re the president of the SCBA now, right? Their organization is based in Michigan all this while, so wouldn’t that mean that you’d have to stay in Michigan

When Claire was on her way to Maple Villa, she was insanely confident in herself.She had analyzed Alex and Dorothy’s relationship thoroughly.From when they started dating in university until he came to live with them, she had remembered every single detail. This woman was extremely bigoted towards money, so she was able to recall all her memories just for money itself.She could remember just how Alex took care of Dorothy when she was sick.She even remembered how Alex massaged Dorothy’s feet when she felt tired.His expression filled with love was definitely not just a mere act.Back then, she saw Alex as just a mere loser for being willing to do such things for his woman. It’s like he didn’t have a man’s pride, as if he was willing to slave away for her.However, her attitude was much different this time—she figured that this could be her biggest trump card.‘There’s just no way that Alex could ever move on from my daughter.’With this, she came to a conclusion that Alex d

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 Ill 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 sm

There was water in the pool since it hadn’t been drained after the last use.Thump!Claire Assex fell into the pool.“Help! Help!”“I—Ouch, there’s a cramp in my leg…”Claire splashed around in the pool as she drank the pool water in big mouthfuls.Brittany Rockefeller immediately became furious. “Stop acting so miserable. Do you think I’m stupid? This pool is so shallow. You couldn’t possibly drown even if you have a leg cramp!”Waltz Fleur nodded. “That’s right. This woman just did something I’ve never seen before, all just for money! However, this is how she usually behaves anyway. Previously, she even forced my senior to get a divorce so that Dorothy Assex could get married to Spark Rockefeller, Alex’s cousin, the son of the culprit who snatched Rockefeller Group away! Is this something a human would do?”“…” Brittany was dumbfounded.She had yet to hear about all that happened in the past!Now that she had heard it, she was so angry that she could vomit blood. She then l
