Chapter 920:

? ? ? ? ?

Alexis was sure of one thing. Kyler was a man of integrity, committed to his promises throughout his life.

Kyler promised to never reveal where Mitchel came from, and he planned to keep that promise.

Beuford was Kyler's confidant, so naturally he was involved and knew everything. That couldn't be helped. And it was this same secret that led to Beuford's death, the work of Alexis.

In Alexis's opinion, Beuford deserved it.

Why had Alexis deliberately lost the case against Mitchel at the last council meeting, submitting without a fight? It was all because Beuford had used that secret to blackmail him! Dealing with Beuford, a cunning figure, was anything but easy.

If Kyler hadn't been alive then, Alexis wouldn't have waited so long to seize power. Truly, Kyler had been clever.

Alexis knew he couldn't outsmart Kyler, and he didn't dare scheme to gain some influence in the Dixon Group until Kyler died.

But that process was slow, because Kyler, perhaps sensing that Alexis had taken steps to strengthen the company within, excluding Alexis from important decisions.

Unfortunately, Kyler had not anticipated his sudden illness, which unexpectedly claimed his life, leaving no final instructions and thus granting Alexis the opportunity to do something.

Now, Alexis became the eldest of the Dixon family and assumed that, no matter how well Mitchel did in the Dixon Group, Mitchel had to show him respect.

This is how Alexis rose little by little until reaching his current position.

If it hadn't been for Beuford, Alexis would have achieved success much sooner. But fortunately, Beuford's meddling reminded him of the threat, which he quickly neutralized.

Despite her internal doubts when faced with Mitchel's calm demeanor, Alexis had to push them aside and focus on the situation at hand. He was sure that no one else alive knew about the past. To seem kind, he said, “Even if you treat me like this, out of fatherly love, I won't completely ruin you. The Dixon Group still welcomes you.”

Compared to Mitchel's coldness, Alexis's apparent generosity seemed more admirable.

Some of Alexis's allies among the shareholders gathered the crowd and said, "Mr. Alexis Dixon is truly a kind-hearted man." Despite Mr. Mitchel Dixon's lack of respect, he is willing to forgive and forget. A true model for Ardlens.”

Others applauded and said, "Absolutely."

Another person implored: "Mr. Mitchel Dixon, considering everything Mr. Alexis Dixon has done for you, it is really unfair of you. "You owe him an apology."

Feeling pleased with himself, Alexis spread his arms and said, “Oh, you are too generous! I am not worthy of such praise!

Mitchel let out a cold laugh. "You're right. "You don't deserve it."

Alexis was taken aback. His face hardened. He couldn't continue maintaining his generous facade. Even the kindest person has his limits, and he was only trying to be noble.

“Little rascal…” Alexis muttered under her breath and stopped abruptly as she realized her outburst was inappropriate.

Clearing his throat, Alexis said, “Mitchel, you are stubborn and unapologetic. As your adoptive father, I have no choice. Since you refuse to recognize me, I will not impose that role on you. I hereby declare that you are no longer part of the Dixon family. We will go our separate ways. You will make your own path and we will have no relationship with each other.

As he concluded his speech, Alexis even pretended to wipe a tear from his eye, feigning grief, as if he was truly hurt by Mitchel's behavior.

As Alexis's performance rocked the audience, influenced by the infiltrators he had planted, someone stepped forward to address the crowd.
