I Miss Her So Much "You!" Alexis, seething with anger, pointed a trembling finger at Mitchel.
Though Alexis could barely contain his rage, he knew he had to take advantage of Mitchel for his grand schemes first.
Trying to control his fury, Alexis adopted a gentler tone, "Marrying Eloise is merely a temporary thing.
You could part ways with her after the deal is done.
Besides, it's not your first divorce, and...” Alexis trailed off, swelling with a strange sense of pride, and boasted, “Women flock to
us Dixons, especially those from affluent families.” In Alexis’ view, women were merely pawns in his strategic games, valued only
for the alliances they brought.
Even Luciana had been his calculated choice, selected for her family's status.
Mitchel, on the other hand, held marriage in higher regard and had no desire to engage in a debate with Alexis.
"I will not marry Eloise.
I need to rest.
Please leave,” Mitchel said wearily.
Alexis’ irritation with Mitchel was palpable.
Yet, the sight of Mitchell's pale lips tempered his anger.
“Take your rest then.
But remember, back then, you married that woman without my consent.
Had it not been for the fact that Kyler backed you, 1 would have shown my objection.
This time, I won't stand by idly.
As a Dixon, your marriage isn't yours to decide.
If not the Benton family, I'd have chosen another for you.
Don't cross me again, or my response won't be kind.” His words hung in the air, heavy with menace.

As Mitchel's father, Alexis would never hurt Mitchel directly.
But he knew precisely whom Mitchel sought to shield.

Suddenly, a frosty look overtook Mitchel's eyes.
With a mocking laugh, he shot back, “If you're so obsessed with using marriage as a tool, why not try it yourself? With all the
women you entertain, why not marry them? That'd surely bolster your company abroad, wouldn't it?” Mitchel laid bare Alexis’
schemes without hesitation.
Alexis' face twisted at once, a flicker of guilt quickly giving way to fury.

across Mitchel's 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, "Why are you dragging me out? That defiant fool threatened me, and 1 won't stand for it!” Luciana's fury bubbled into a = scoff. “Mitchel threatened you?" "Yes!" Alexis, avoiding the full truth, added hastily, "Just look at your dear son, as merciless as his mother!" "Well, I believe Mitchel

Luciana looked down at him with disdain.
"Serves you right!" Throughout his life, Alexis had been adored by many women, all tender and gentle with him.
Never had he endured such treatment, especially not from a woman.
It was the ultimate disgrace! Regaining his footing, he lunged at Luciana with a sneer.
"You bitch! I'll make you pay!" But with his vision still impaired, Luciana slipped away with ease.
Thump! A dull thump echoed as he missed again.
Alexis stumbled once more, which left yet another lump on his forehead.
Luciana, catching sight of his ludicrous expression, couldn't help but feel amused.
She had always shown restraint toward Alexis for Mitchel's sake, not wishing to cause any trouble.
To Luciana, today seemed to be turning out rather well! She was aware, however, that Alexis would seek retribution, prompting
her to snap a few shots of his current disheveled state.
