Chapter 1632
Alexis, curious, wondered what Mitchel was poised to reveal.
Mitchel, with an icy demeanor, inquired, “Is that everything?”
Alexis confidently responded, “Yeah.
”
“Then, I have a few things to add Mitchel announced, his finger rhythmically tapping on the table, signaling the entrance of Matteo along with several individuals.
”
Alexis’ smug expression faded instantly, replaced by concern as he turned to Mitchel, his tone laced with accusation.
“What are you scheming?”
Mitchel, nonchalantly spinning a pen, retorted without even granting Alexis a glance, “I believe you’re acquainted with these gentlemen.
”
Alexis hastily refuted, “I don’t recognize them!”
But one of the newcomers contradicted, “How could you forget me, Alexis? Weren’t you the one who referred us to Miss Glyn for the Dixon Group projects? You assured us she could guarantee our success in securing bids.
”
Another added, “Right! That’s what you told us!”
Alexis paled, vehemently denying, “That’s absurd.
I’ve never met any of you, never!”
However, another voice joined the chorus, challenging Alexis’ denial.
“But, Alexis, you introduced me to Miss Glyn at the Ardlens International Charity Gala two years ago.
Why deny it now? Mr.
Hammond from the Prosperous Group was present.
He witnessed your introduction.
You can’t refute that!”
Reluctant to admit it, the man found himself cornered.
To deny these allegations would risk significant credibility and financial repercussions.
Moreover, Mitchel’s move, though aggressive, wasn’t compelling him toward any unlawful admissions but rather to acknowledge the truth.
The room buzzed with murmurs and speculation as the shareholders absorbed the unfolding drama.
Alexis, now visibly shaken and enraged, accused Mitchel of betrayal, “You conniving little snake! You’re setting me up!”
Alexis, seething with anger, lashed out with the metal corner of the folder in his hand, aiming it straight at Mitchel.
This move caught everyone off guard.
Mitchel dodged smoothly, just tilting his head at the right moment.
Without missing a beat, Matteo sprang into action, grabbing Alexis’ arms and twisting them behind his back, then pinning him against the table.
Caught in a tight grip, Alexis exploded in rage, yelling at Mitchel, “You ungrateful brat, thinking of killing your own dad? I regret ever raising you, you disgraceful creature!”
The room went silent as the shareholders watched, their expressions turning dark.
Hearing Alexis lash out at his own son with foul words was too much, and it only made Alexis look more guilty.
Henley quickly intervened, urging in a low voice, “Dad, let’s not do anything we’ll regret!”
That was when Alexis caught himself, realizing he almost walked right into the trap set for him.
If he denied all accusations, who could lay a finger on him?
Seeing Alexis regain his composure, Henley turned his frustration toward Matteo, reprimanding, “Why are you disrespecting a director like this!”
