Alexis was utterly astonished. It appeared that Mitchel had arranged everything. Even Hector, who was initially hesitant, had been swayed by him.

Hector was indeed more skilled than Alexis. Hector simply wasn't interested in committing to the company before. However, under his leadership, the Dixon Group was likely to do well.

This reduced the likelihood of Henley taking over the Dixon Group. At this thought, a wave of anger surged through Alexis.

Meanwhile, Katie had been watching anxiously the whole time, casting worried glances at Alexis, trying to figure out what was being discussed. She feared that after betraying Mitchel, if Alexis fell from power, she might be Mitchel's next target.

But Alexis was too wrapped up in his own frustrations to pay Katie any attention. He didn't consider his own predicament too serious, convinced his connections and wealth could fix everything. He even pondered how he would clear his name once he was free.

Alexis wasn't scared in the slightest, confident that Henley was already working on a solution to his problems. Unbeknownst to him, Henley's focus on the situation was not what Alexis expected.

Henley was racking his mind, figuring how to take advantage of Alexis‘ predicament to his favor.

Alexis issued a chilling parting threat to Mitchel, "Let's see who dies first!"

Then, he was led away by two police officers.

As Alexis departed, tranquility returned to the scene.

Mitchel stepped back onto the stage and addressed the gathering, "I apologize, everyone, this incident has disrupted the joyous atmosphere. Please go along with the staff and make your way to the hotel's banquet hall for the wedding feast."

It was clear to everyone that the wedding couldn't go on after such a disturbance. After all, getting married simply involved obtaining a marriage certificate. Holding a wedding ceremony was optional.

Following the commotion, Mitchel's authority seemed even more solid and unchallenged.

The guests were not keen to stay after witnessing such a spectacle.

Staff swiftly moved to clear the venue.

The place fell silent, leaving only Katie on the stage, puzzled. She wondered why all the guests had hurried out. After all, they hadn't exchanged rings or completed the ceremony, and Mitchel hadn't even put on the groom's boutonniére.

Katie hesitated to ask for clarification when she noticed Hector approaching Mitchel. Her discomfort and anxious thoughts persisted.

She strained to listen to their conversation but the distance deterred her from making out any words.

Hector approached Mitchel and inquired, “What are you planning next?"

“Hector, don't worry about tonight's banquet. Just mingle with the guests and guide them safely to the other building via the emergency exit."
