The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 267
Chapter 267
Claire held the side of her face that had been slapped, with her eyes widened in
disbelief. She thought, “It’s Brittany, it’s really Brittany. She has actually woken up from
her coma.”
Alex was shocked as well. “Mom, you… Why are you guys here?”
He saw Waltz and Maya were behind Brittany as well.
In that instant, Alex knew that
chaos would soon ensue. He was worried the most that such a situation would happen,
therefore he never told Claire that his mother had woken up.
For Dorothy’s sake, he was willing to endure Claire’s unreasonable and lunatic behavior
to make things more difficult for him.
However, Brittany would never stand back and
tolerate her behavior.
Dorothy felt the same too, but her face was pale, with her lips trembling. She was about
to faint out of shock. Beatrice was in shock as well, with her mouth agape.
Meanwhile, the Bardot family and the other guests were taken aback as soon as they
saw such a scene, but their expressions turned excited shortly after… Especially
Adrianna and her family, they almost wanted to cheer out loud.
Claire snapped back to reality and instinctively asked, “Brittany, how did you survive?
Aren’t you almost dead?”
Brittany’s cold glare was as sharp as a spear. “Claire Assex, of course you wish me to
die so you can keep bullying my son like this, right?
You even cursed both my son and I
to die, why don’t you just drop dead instead?”
Brittany continued, “I didn’t believe the rumours about you at first. But now, I’ve seen it
with my own eyes, this is far worse than what I’ve heard. Do you even deserve to be a
mother-in-law?”
Dorothy immediately flung Beatrice’s hands away and rushed over. She held Claire
back as she turned to Brittany and said, “Mom, please calm down.”
Brittany lifted her arm and slapped Dorothy across her face. “Get lost! Dorothy Assex,
do you still remember what did I say back then, when I gave you permission to marry
into the Rockefellers?
I told you to take care of m y son! Is this how you take care of
him?”
She added, “How dare you let your mom scold my son all she wants, calling him a loser,
and even letting him slave away for your family as a nanny?! Even though you’ve been
married for ten months, he’s still a virgin even now too, for god’s sake!
You’ve turned my
son into the biggest laughing stock in California, you’ll be condemned for the rest of
your life!”
A slight smile flashed on Waltz’s face.
Dorothy, on the other hand, burst into tears as she covered her face with her hands.
Alex held Brittany back. “Mom, what are you doing? What does this have got to do with
Dorothy? Come on, stop this ruckus. We should at least give face to Aidan, after all
today is his 66th birthday celebration. Let’s just leave!”
After all, Brittany was known as the Steel Woman. Alex was worried that if this ever kept
up, this wouldn’t end up well. He might actually have to divorce Dorothy.
However, how could Brittany back down and the Assexes off the hook? NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Brittany said, “Go away, don’t even try to stop me!
You’re William’s son, and my son too!
Your dad and I would never allow you to get bullied like this!”
“You’re the most precious thing to us in the world, we wouldn’t even trade you for the
stars up in the sky. Yet, in these people’s eyes, you are nothing but sh*t, they think
you’re trash! If your father were to know that you have degraded yourself just for this
woman, he would kick his coffin open to beat you up!”
As Brittany spoke, her eyes were
reddened. After all, this was her beloved son.
After being slapped in front of the crowd, Claire, who was enraged, pointed at Brittany
and shouted, “You hot headed b*tch, how dare you slap me and even my daughter?
What makes you think you could do that?
Have you gone mental from being half-dead
for half a year? Who do you think you are? Do you think William Rockefeller is still the
great man that he used to be?”
She added, “Your husband is just a corrupted traitor who abused the law and colluded
with the enemies!
He’s just a street rat detested by everyone! And you? If it weren’t for
us, the Assexes funding your hospital bills every month, do you think you can live up till
now? You would’ve died long ago!”
Beatrice came over to help her mother too. “That’s right, you brute woman, you’re really
unreasonable! What makes you think you can slap my mom?”
Just then, the Bardots finally came over to stick up for them.
After all, Claire was still part of the Bardots. Now that she was bullied by an outsider, if
they were to stand back and watch, everyone would gossip and criticize them behind
their back.
While smiling coldly, Brittany stared at the crowd and said, “You want to get even with
us, right? Fine, I want to settle the account with you guys too.”
