The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 38

Claire was queuing up outside of the clinic with the other patients. She was at the very end of the line, currently talking to the woman next to her…

“The legendary Dr. Coney is really something. I had to ask quite a few friends to help me get an appointment with him which I had to wait for another three months to happen.”

“Yeah, I had to wait for more than three months too. Well I can’t complain, no doctor is better than him!”

As she conversed, Claire felt someone approaching her and turned around. She frowned when she realized it was Alex. “Why are you here?”

Alex greeted her out of habit, “Mum.”

Claire exploded with anger, “What do you mean Mum? Who’s your Mum? Let me tell you something, you useless piece of sh*t. My daughter will soon divorce you and we’re cutting clean! Stop trying to crawl back to us! Heck, were you stalking me? You probably couldn’t find a place to stay, right? Are you going to beg me to take you back?”

Alex shook his head and said, “Ma’am, don’t you worry, I have a place to stay. You’re in my way, so will you please excuse me, ma’am?”

“What did you call me?” Claire was triggered.

Mum and Ma’am sounded slightly similar, but the meaning was one heck of a difference.

Claire was 46 years old at the time. But she had done her best to preserve her beauty and kept up with all the fashion trends just to look like she was in her early 30s. Thus, being called ‘Ma’am’ triggered her tremendously.

Frustration welled up in her chest.
