Alexis stood there, stunned.
He had intended to hit Raegan.
But in the chaos, his slap had landed squarely on Mitchelâs jaw.
Mitchel realized that had he not stepped in, Raegan would have been the one to bear the brunt of that slap.
At the thought of this, his eyes turned cold.
While striking back at his father was not an option, he was not without recourse.
Right in front of Alexis, Mitchel dialed a number and rattled off a list of names.
âInvestigate these individuals thoroughly.
If you find any wrongdoing, transfer the case to the prosecutorâs office and press charges.
â
Alexisâ complexion drained of color.
The individuals Mitchel targeted for investigation were Alexisâ confidants.
This move Mitchel was a clear of his of by signal way getting back.
It was not only detrimental to the companyâs internal harmony but also posed a threat to its image and reputation.
Alexis pointed accusingly at Mitchel.
âDo you still see me as your father? I did all this for your good! How can you oppose me over a woman? Have you ever thought about the repercussions for the company?â
âIf youâre so concerned about the company, then stop provoking me,â
Mitchel retorted.
âThis is the final warning.
Donât hurt my people.
More importantly, donât speak ill of her, not to mention insult her.
If you push me further, jail will be the least of your worries!â
Mitchelâs threat was stark and unmasked.
He made sure Raegan heard it.
Alexis was boiling with rage, feeling a sharp, throbbing pain in his chest.
His authority and dignity were completely undermined.

At this moment, he clutched his chest and exclaimed, âYouâre such an unfilial son! You have the nerve to send the companyâs elders to the police for her sake.
Whatâs next? Are you going send me to the police station tomorrow?â
âAs long as you refrain from acting recklessly, I can guarantee you a peaceful retirement.
â
Mitchelâs implication was clear.
If Alexis crossed the line, particularly with Raegan, Mitchel would not hesitate to act, even if it meant throwing his father in jail.
âHow dare you!â Alexis clutched the railing.
He was so furious that he struggled for breath.
Suddenly, Mitchel called out, âMatteo!â
Matteo walked over to Mitchel, who then ordered, âEscort him to see the doctor.
Also, station two bodyguards at the door.
Donât let anyone like him come in Alexis could hardly believe what he was hearing.
Mitchel was targeting him.
That was exactly what he had said moments earlier.
But now, his own words were being used against him.
Alexis felt a tightness in his chest.
His eyes rolled back as Matteo assisted him out of the room.
