The Pinnacle of Life novel Chapter 2087

Alex was appalled.

‘That’s way too expensive, isn’t that?’

‘Ugh… If I’d known, I wouldn’t have given it to Khloe.’

Staring at the tower, Alex felt uninterested. Blood energy pills were among the lowest-ranked pills. They didn’t even have enough carats. However, ordinary people could consume blood energy pills without having trained in cultivation. Hence, that pill became a necessity for anyone who wanted to begin cultivating.

At the time, Shawn and Khloe had arrived at Alex’s place.

Rushing into the manor, both wore black suits and masked themselves. To their demise, they couldn’t find Alex. There wasn’t even anyone in there.

“Could they have received news and ran away?” Shawn was enraged. He swore to obtain the treasure Alex held.

If he ran away, it meant they’d lose an extremely rare opportunity.

“That’s impossible! Where could he have run to?” Khloe asked.

Although she really didn’t want such a thing, she was still a businesswoman. Moreover, her face was scarred, hence she had a twisted mind. Business was the center of her life. Everything else wasn’t particularly important Besides that, Alex was just a nobody to her. She couldn’t care less about him.

‘Money is the root of all evil, so goes the saying,’ she thought. ‘This treasure would only bring disaster to him if he kept it. So, it’s best you hand it to us, the Yggdrasill’s, instead. We’ll be helping him remove any misfortune too.’

“Their possessions are still here!”

“That’s Dory’s stuff. Since it’s left here, they’d definitely be coming back for it,” Khloe said. “Let’s wait here, grandpa. They’ll be back soon.”

‘It’s… It’s Dad!’

He actually felt his father’s Chi in this place. The discovery had completely overwhelmed him. He may have been going from place to place to achieve different goals, but his main goal was still to find his missing father. He really didn’t expect to be able to feel him here before he even entered the teleportation circle.

He turned and scanned his surroundings, only to realize that the sensation was coming from an accessory store.

‘Could Dad be in there?’

“Dory, quick! Push me into that store!” Alex said, panicked, his voice quivering.

Dory nodded and immediately brought him inside. However, she wasn’t paying much attention and accidentally bumped the wheelchair into a woman.

“Huh, isn’t that one of the Yggdrasills’ maids? Weren’t you supposed to serve your little masked lady? Why are you pushing this man? Aww, it’s a cripple with no legs! And great, he has a child too… Good for you. You’re someone’s stepmom now. You sure have a unique taste.”
