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.

sneer remained as he retorted, "I'm merely suggesting you ponder over your company abroad before making rash decisions. After all, you've worked hard for it, haven't you?” Fury scorched through Alexis’ 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 Mitchel's chest, now stained with blood. This sight pierced her heart, leaving her feeling as though it

smash you old bastard to death! My son is hurt, and here you are aggravating him while he's bleeding!” Alexis, unprepared for the onslaught, was dazed, his vision clouded by blood. He reached out to strike Luciana but,

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.

inquired alertly, “What are you doing?" With a slight pout, Luciana retorted, "What do you think? I'm capturing the moment of the distinguished Mr. Dixon, who seems quite distressed at the moment!” "How dare you! Stop that at once!” Alexis, who prized his reputation greatly, couldn't stand the thought of anyone seeing him in such a state! Luciana, her mind on Mitchel, had no
