The Pinnacle Of Life

Alex never expected to run into Claire here. What he worried about was whether or not she would go back and tell Dorothy about it.

As for Cheryl, her eyes lit up when she heard Claire’s words.

‘Alex and Dorothy are divorced?’

She hadn’t known about this before, and when she heard this, she was secretly happy on the inside. She and Dorothy hadn’t gotten along, after all, and felt that a woman like Dorothy was not worthy of Alex. All of the Assex family had never treated Alex like a human being, especially Claire, now standing in front of them.

Her freshest memory of Claire was how she continued humiliating Alex in every possible way.

So, she immediately said, “You have so much free time to care about others! Do you think you can do anything you want now? When he was your son-in-law back then, you treated him like a slave. Now, he’s no longer your son -in-law. What… Do you still intend to have him work as a slave for your family? You can’t bear to see him have a good life? I say, a woman like you really thinks herself a queen now, doesn’t she?”

When Claire thought about how wealthy Alex had become, and her own family had nothing, her anger flared up once again.

Her face twisted, and she shouted, “Oh, you shameless thing. You’ve become someone’s mistress, yet you still display a sense of superiority? You’ve robbed my daughter of her husband and embarrassed your grandfather, Doctor Coney. How are you not embarrassed about coming out to meet people?”

“Did I snatch him away? You’re the one who chased Alex away. Who in the whole state of California doesn’t know about it? Your family treated him like a servant, not letting them stay in the same room even though they’re married. You have him do the housework all day long, even having him wash all your feet… May I ask, which mother-in-law would treat their son-in-law like that? If it were anyone else, they would want to divorce your daughter immediately. When your daughter can’t find a husband in the future, it will be all your fault.”
