Chapter 227: Miguel’s Command

Lanny and Vladimir exchanged glances with one another. This was something they wanted to prevent.

’How did our father know that Dominique is Aaron’s biological father? Oh, wait. Not only Aaron. He mentioned the twins!’ Lanny held Athena’s hand, her palm sweating slightly.

Athena’s attention was fixed on Miguel. She was also shocked by this sudden discovery. No wonder Miguel allowed Aaron to stay with Dominique. It turned out he already knew that Dominique was Aaron’s father.

"Let me repeat myself!" Miguel mumbled in his authoritative voice. "No one is allowed to touch and harm Dominique Smith! I will punish you even if you are my son!"

Miguel made a declaration in front of Lanny and Vladimir, protecting Dominique. The siblings were surprised since it was very unusual that Miguel was very protective of Dominique.

The four of them remained silent, still trying to absorb Miguel’s words.

Miguel suddenly turned to Luna. And without saying a word, he slapped her.

"I’ve been watching you from afar. At first, I thought you were just investigating his background, but who would have thought you were planning to eliminate him? Today’s accident is your work, isn’t it?" Miguel confronted Vladimir and Luna.

Luna could only bow her head. She couldn’t defy the Clan Leader! Miguel’s anger made her feel guilty of the crime of disobedience.

Meanwhile, Vladimir also noticed that his father only knew half of the truth. This only meant Lanny, Athena, and Aaron were still safe from his wrath. Miguel Ivankov was still unaware of Lanny’s deception.

’He must not know that Aaron is not Lanny’s biological son. He will not spare her, including Athena and Aaron. I must protect them.’

"Father... Dominique has betrayed my sister. He didn’t even know that he had children with her. How can you defend a guy like him?" Vladimir reasoned out with him.

"No matter what. He is still the father of the twins. Aaron and Kimmy are longing to meet their biological father." Miguel spat back at him.

"Again! Don’t challenge me. If you dare touch him again, I will be your enemy." Miguel said with conviction, threatening his son.

Athena and Lanny became more confused as to why Miguel was putting Dominique under his protection. Being the twins’ biological father was not enough reason to do that.

"Dad, how did you know about this?" Lanny finally found her voice to speak up.

"Aaron told me about him. I noticed their uncanny resemblance so I conducted a paternity test between the two. And the result matched." Miguel confirmed it.

"You’ve found their father. But you never told them. Why Lanny? Why do you keep hiding his identity from the children? Don’t you want them to meet their father?" He questioned his daughter.

As the confrontation continued, Athena just remained silent. She didn’t know what to say. But the best thing to do was not get involved in this discussion.

’Things are getting more complicated. Miguel Ivankov mistook Dominique as the twin’s biological father. But Aaron is the only one related to Dominique. I’m afraid... sooner or later the truth about Aaron’s identity as my son will come out. Lanny will also be in trouble if Miguel finds out the truth.’

With those considerations in mind, Athena thought of speeding his revenge against Dominique, Sasha, and the Williams Family. Once she was done, she would reveal to Aaron that she was her biological mother.

"Bring me the driver who hit Dominique," Miguel spoke to Luna once again, ordering her.

This time Luna found the courage to speak.

"Sir Miguel... I’m afraid I can’t hand him over to you because the driver of the car is not related to us. He is not the one we hired to hurt Dominique. Before I could even make a move, the accident happened." Luna revealed the truth to them.

Everyone fell silent once again. Vladimir looked at her with a questioning gaze.

"What do you mean? This accident has nothing to do with us?" Vladimir clarified things.

Miguel also narrowed his eyes as he stared at Luna, demanding some answers.

"What I did was to tamper his car brake to cause a car accident. But hitting him with a car in a public place is not part of my plan. Believe it or not, even if you kill me now, Sir Miguel, I am telling the truth."

Athena and Lanny were taken aback when they heard that.

"It looks like... we are not the only people who are after his life. The accident earlier was intentional. The driver has killing intent. He wanted to run him over again if I didn’t stop him." Luna shared her assumption.

Miguel’s face turned ashen when he heard that. He couldn’t let this slide. The people responsible for this must be punished. His grandson’s life was also put in danger. He would never forgive them.

"If you don’t want to suffer the consequences then you must catch the culprit! Bring him to me!" Miguel commanded Luna.

Then he turned Vladimir and Lanny, completely ignoring Athena’s presence.

"I will give you time to reveal the truth to the twins. They have the right to know their father. I already sent someone to monitor Dominique’s condition."

Athena and Lanny panicked when they heard Miguel’s last remarks.

"But Dad! Dominique is already married. He doesn’t need to know about the twin’s existence, Dad. I can raise them alone. Besides, I’m marrying Dmitri! He will be the father of my children!" Lanny tried to convince her father. She wanted to prevent Dominique from learning that Aaron was his son.

But little did they know, Dominique was already aware of the truth.

Miguel faced Lanny with a serious expression on his face. "Don’t make me repeat my words, Lanny. Married or not, your twins deserve to know and meet their biological father," he said with finality in his tone. Without further ado, Miguel walked away, leaving them behind.

Athena felt like every ounce of her energy was drained after encountering Miguel Ivankov today.

’What shall we do now? Miguel’s involvement will complicate things more.’

Sensing Athena’s anxiety, Lanny held her hands. "Don’t worry. We are going to find ways to solve this problem. The important thing is that we clear the misunderstanding. Luna and my brother have nothing to do with this accident." Lanny tried to comfort Athena.
