Mitchel calmly said.
Struggling to contain his anger, Alexis asked, âWhy did you fire Carsen?â
âHe abused his position for personal gain and colluded with external parties.
The evidence was irrefutable,â Mitchel explained.
âBut it was just minor information he sold.
In a company this big, heâs not only the one doing such things!â
Mitchel cast a cold glance at Alexis and vowed, âIâll find out all of them, and I wonât spare any of them.
â
âHow dare you! Those veterans have been with me since the beginning, and theyâre nearing retirement.
â
Alexis shot daggers at Mitchel and snorted, âDid you even consult me before firing them? How dare you disregard my position!â
Mitchel sneered, and his laughter added a chill to the air.
âAnd when have you ever asked me before harming my people?â
âWho have I harmed?â Alexis asked, taken aback.
Without even sparing him a glance, Mitchel dismissively said, âYou should leave now.
Donât bother us anymore.
â
His emphasis on âusâ was deliberate.
It was only that that Alexis realized that by âmy people,â Mitchel was referring to Raegan.
Well, it was not surprising that Alexis didnât take Raegan seriously.
In his eyes, Raegan was an ex-daughter-in-law with no significant status and not someone he felt compelled to curry favor with.
This realization fueled his fury.
The fact that Mitchel had dismissed his informants in the company just for Raegan irked him.
Moreover, those informants who had been working for Alexis for years were never a concern to Mitchel previously.
But now, Mitchel fired them as a tool for intimidation.

Unable to contain his anger, Alexis pointed accusingly at Raegan and snarled, âIt seems that what I said to you that day went in one ear and out the other.
You ignored my words and came back to stir trouble! Youâre not just shameless.
Youâre cunning!
Let me warn you.
Kylerâs condition is failing.
Once heâs gone, Iâ1L never let someone like you marry into the Dixon family.
Youâd better give up the idea of remarrying Mitchel!â
Raegan, who was already eager to leave here, grew paler with Alexisâ sudden outburst.
Alexisâ rage had not cooled yet.
And to Raeganâs shock, he raised his hand, wanting to hit her.
Slap! The sound of a slap echoed sharply.
Raegan shut her eyes tight and braced for the impact.
Yet, to her surprise, she felt no pain.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Mitchel had stepped in and shielded her from the blow.
