The Pinnacle Of Life

When Alex saw Dorothy appear in the room and faced Daya for the first time, he felt a huge headache coming on. The extremely frosty look on Dorothy’s face made him feel especially uneasy.

He wasn’t sure if he was thinking too much, but ever since the divorce, and although they two had finally broken through, reaching the point where they joined flesh and spirit, where they should have been a step closer than before, it seemed to have had the opposite effect, creating a wall between them instead. They were supposed to be each other’s closest person, but it felt like their souls were not close at all.

For example, now, the frosty look on Dorothy’s face made it seem like she had an aura around her that wouldn’t stand to be questioned.

“Cough. Dorothy, it’s actually like this…”

Just as Alex was about to speak, his phone rang.

He was quietly overjoyed when it happened, and thought to himself, ‘This phone call came just at the right time. No matter who it was, I can leave once I pick it up. I really have to show my thanks to this person properly. This call is a real life-saver!’

When he looked at the caller, he found that it was Hailey.

‘Oh my, oh my. Sister Hailey, I really love you to death.’

He picked up the call immediately. “Sister Hailey! calling me at this time… Anything urgent?”

But what came from the other side was the voice of an old man.

“Rockefeller, your sister is in my hands. Whether she lives or dies depends on what you do in the next moments.”

Woosh!
