Alexisâ face twisted at once, a flicker of guilt quickly giving way to fury.
âYou bastard! How dare you speak to me with such insolence!â
Alexis roared.
But Mitchelâs sneer remained as he retorted, âIâm merely suggesting you ponder over your company abroad before making rash decisions.
After all, youâve worked hard for it, havenât you?â
Fury scorched through Alexisâ gaze.
Mitchel had thrown down a threat!
A blatant threat! Mitchel had the audacity to menace him over a worthless woman! Outrageous!
Just as Alexis was on the verge of speaking, the door flew open with a forceful kick.
Luciana burst in, her eyes landing on the bandage across Mitchelâs chest, now stained with blood.
This sight pierced her heart, leaving her feeling as though it had been ripped in two.
Her gaze icy, Luciana yanked Alexis out of the ward.
Alexis protested, âWhy are you dragging me out? That defiant fool threatened me, and I wonât stand for it!â
Lucianaâs fury bubbled into a scoff.
âMitchel threatened you?â
âYes!â
Alexis, avoiding the full truth, added hastily, âJust look at your dear son, as merciless as his mother!â
âWell, I believe Mitchel acted appropriately!â

Confused, Alexis pressed, âWhat was that?â
In a flash of rage, Luciana wielded the handbag in her hand.
Bang! She pummeled it against Alexisâ forehead.
âIâll smash you old bastard to death! My son is hurt, and here you are aggravating him while heâs bleeding!â
Alexis, unprepared for the onslaught, was dazed, his vision clouded by blood.
He reached out to strike Luciana but, blinded, only managed to trip over his own feet.
Bang! Alexis toppled to the floor, his forehead swelling up, a ridiculous and pitiful sight.
