The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 271

“How much does it cost?” Christopher glared at Claire with murderous intent.

After that, he said, heartbroken, “Jean Peculli’s artworks are priceless, you wouldn’t be

able to buy it even if you wanted to.

However, if The Landscape really were to be put up

in an auction, it should be way more expensive than the one that was bidded in Port

City last time, with a worth at least a billion dollars.”

‘What?! It’s actually worth a billion dollars?!’

Upon hearing those words, Claire thought

as she fell and sat on the ground, due to her legs enervated.

Realizing that she had tore a billion dollars apart, she wanted to ram her head into a

wall out of regret.

After all it was a billion dollars, when would she have the opportunity

to see such a large amount of money?

On the other hand, Edison, who was ashen-faced, immediately explained as he faced

Sharpay and Adrianna with doubtful looks on their face, “Sharpay, Aunty, I was fooled

too.

F*ck, I’ll demand a proper explanation tomorrow.”

Christopher said, “I’ll keep this torn art piece for now. When I get back later, I’ll check if

there’s any way I could fix it.”

Aidan hurriedly replied, “Alright, sure.

Sorry for the trouble, Lawrence.”

Suddenly, Christopher took another glance at the ground and noticed the smushed

snow lotus.

Shocked, he hurriedly kneeled down and took one of the petals up to his nose. He took

a sniff and even tasted it.

Soon after, he yelled out of anger again, “This is a

hundred-year-old snow lotus! Who was it?! Who the hell stomped a priceless treasure

like this?! Another priceless treasure ruined! Oh dear god!”

As he once again mentioned that another priceless treasure was ruined, Claire was

shocked so she asked, “Mr. Lawrence, what’s with you again?

Doesn’t this cost around

twenty dollars? It can be purchased abundantly online! Not even a dog would want to

eat this, that’s why I stomped on it.”

Christopher’s eyes were filled with fury.

“So it was you insolent fool again! I really wish I

could slice your legs off! If you were to be my daughter, I would’ve had my wife aborted

you!”

Aidan asked, “Lawrence, is this really valuable?”

Christopher replied, “A medical herbs auction was held a few days ago. A

hundred-year- old snow lotus was bidded for fifty million dollars, do you still think it’s not

worthy?

This one should cost at least thirty million dollars. Now that it’s ruined, it’s all for

naught!”

“Ah!” Claire screamed as she was engulfed by regret.

With just a few stomps, she had trampled a billion and 30 million dollars.

Adrianna stared at Claire as she let out a sardonic laugh. “Oh Sis, you’re really Dad’s

great daughter.

You stomped your son-in-law’s hundreds million dollar gift into nothing.

You totally did it on purpose because you don’t want Dad to have a nice birthday! Hmph,

just look at you now, you have no present for Dad and even your son-in-law ran away.

What a shocker!

My son-in-law is much better, at least Dad still has this

hundred-year-old ginseng.”

Christopher took a look at the said ginseng and laughed. “Pfft, this is just a five-dollar

garden ginseng from the northeast.

How dare you claim that it’s a hundred-year-old wild

ginseng, what a joke!”

Sharpay froze. Jean Pucelli’s fake painting had upset her quite a fair bit already. Now

that the wild ginseng was a fake as well, wasn’t it just too much?

After having egg on her face, Adrianna turned to Edison and asked, “Oh my dear

son-in-law, have you been tricked again?”

Just then, Christopher stared at Edison and said, “Hey, aren’t you the mechanic from

Tigress Mechanics? Edison was it?

Have you fixed the Ferrari that my granddaughter

brought to your auto repair shop?” All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Sharpay was shocked. “What? An auto repair shop? Edison, aren’t you the executive in

Yowell Group?”

Edison had decided to dump Sharpay long ago, so he immediately handed the car key

over to Christopher. “Your granddaughter’s car is outside. Sharpay, it’s over between us.

Let’s never meet from now on.”

He then rushed out of the manor as fast as he could. Indeed, he started an auto repair

shop.

Furthermore, his shop was one of Thousand Miles Conglomerate’s subordinate

companies. Back then when he was working, he had the opportunity to meet Waltz once

and that was how he knew about Princess Fleur of Thousand Miles Conglomerate.

Bumping into her today had almost caused him to faint out of shock.”

“Ah!”

“Edison ran off! Edison… He’s not an executive in Yowell Group, he’s a liar!”

“Not only did he lie about the presents and the car, but he also lied about his identity!”

Sharpay was extremely dejected as she fell and sat on the ground.

Adrianna and Taylor tried catching up to him, but to no avail.

Every guest in Bardot Manor looked at each other and had their eyes widened, with

their mouths agape. Never did they think that the celebration would end up with so

many twists and turns.

Edison, who appeared glamorously at first, ended up being a liar.

On the other hand, Alex, who was detested by everyone, seemed not what they all

thought he was.

More importantly, the wife of William Rockefeller, the founder of Rockefeller group with

assets of three hundred billion dollars, had woken up from her coma.
