None had expected Alexis had ulterior motives all the while, wanting to corrupt Mitchel's mind from a young age. Unfortunately, Mitchel's decency thwarted Alexis' control.

Although Mitchel was aloof, he would not commit crimes or harm others.

He didn't succumb to Alexis' influence.

Actually, after learning the truth, Hector felt that Mitchel was the real him after he married Raegan. The kindness in his nature, the core of his elder brother's child, had never truly left, only buried and hidden in the past.

Now that Kyler had passed away, Hector was the elder of the Dixon family. Naturally, he was responsible for protecting the helmsman of the Dixon family.

"Mitchel..." Hector looked at Mitchel and said solemnly, "The Dixon Group is yours. I am just temporarily guarding it for you. You can be in low spirits now. But you can't go on like this forever."

Mitchel remained calm and expressionless.

Hector became angry. But he persuaded earnestly, “In this world, people are born, get sick, and die every minute. Losing a leg doesn't mean a person can no longer live. Look around you. Some people don't have limbs but can still live well. What about you? You still have both Legs. It's just that one of them is injured. As long as you do rehabilitation training seriously, you will recover like normal people do. It's just a matter of time."

"It's not about the leg," Mitchel suddenly said. Those words served as an explanation to Hector.

The inability to walk would definitely cause Mitchel inconvenience.

But to make him feel inferior? It was very unlikely to happen.

After being in the business world for many years, Mitchel had seen all kinds of people and things. He had many employees who filed sick leaves due to illnesses. There were also disabled people who had succeeded in their own businesses.

Therefore, Mitchel did not let his leg injury affect his state of mind.

Hector stood with his hands behind his back. He knew something about Mitchel's problems. He thought for a while and said, "I have already instructed my assistant to book the earliest flight to Aurora.However, a traffic restriction has been implemented due to the drill issues. We have to wait for their advice. If you have questions about Raegan's upcoming wedding, you can ask her in person. Get things clear with her instead of lying half-dead in the hospital. That's not how the men in our Dixon family do things."

Hector spoke it all in one breath. He didn't even give Mitchel a chance to hesitate or consider. He had made his decision and swiftly announced, "I can help you guard the Dixon Group for another three months at most. It's just in time because Raegan is giving birth in three months. During this time, you must focus on your rehabilitation and think about whether you want to be present when your child is born. After Raegan gives birth, you should be comforted by then. Because after three months, I'll wash my hands of this and focus on my affairs. When the time comes that no one will take charge of the Dixon Group, don't look for me."

As soon as Hector finished his statement, his assistant entered and reminded him that his presence was needed in the meeting.

When Hector was about to walk out the door, he paused and added, "Mitchel, sometimes we need to learn how to coexist. Even if Raegan is really married, no one can change the fact that the child in her belly is yours. So, you still have to shoulder the responsibility. Learn how to be a responsible father."

After saying that, Hector didn't bother to consider what Mitchel would think about his words. Anyway, he had said his pieces.

Hector grasped he wasn't the perfect father in the world. After all, he didn't have his own children and only raised Bryce. But he believed that what mattered was for a man to accept and acknowledge the role of a father. It didn't matter what approach a man used to guide his child's growth. As long as he was sincere in doing it, he would be qualified for the role of a father.

Hector continued, “Bryce will attend Raegan's wedding on my behalf. Take him with you and take care of him, Although Aurora has an agreement with Ardlens that they will ensure the safety of our people entering their country, they do not know about Lorenzo's situation, which is related to you. If they find out, it may be a different story. So, you should be extra careful when you go there. Remember not to reveal your identity. Actually, as long as Lorenzo's father doesn't find out, everything will be fine. After all, everyone in his family is celebrating Lorenzo's death."
