The Mafia Lord's Secret Lover (Evelyn and Axel) novel Chapter 300

Chapter 300: Axel Won’t Wait!

"Alright, calm down," Oscar continued, taking a breath. "Leave it to me. I will wipe the article clean. I will make sure no one can post anything about him ever again."

"No," Evelyn said calmly.

There was a beat of silence.

"...What did you just say?"

"Don’t take it down. Not yet. Let them be."

"WHAT?" Oscar nearly shouted. "What the hell are you saying, Eve? Have you finally snapped?"

Instead of being offended by his curse, Evelyn smiled faintly. "Relax. I am not losing my mind."

"Then explain. Slowly. Preferably before I book a flight to scold you and start suing people with my bare hands."

"You need to gather everything," she said, her tone firm now. "Screenshots, sources, IP addresses, connections. I want all the evidence."

Another pause.

"We will sue them," Evelyn continued calmly. "Every platform. Every writer. Every anonymous account that dared to mention my son."

The silence stretched longer this time.

Then Oscar laughed, loud and delighted. "That is more like it. That is the Evelyn I know."

"Of course," she replied lightly. "Did you really think I would let them walk away?"

"Never," Oscar said, clearly amused now. "Alright, my queen of lawsuits. I will prepare everything. By the time they realize what they have done, it will already be too late." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Good."

"And Eve?" he added teasingly. "Try not to scare Axel too much. He might start a war before we even reach court."

"I will handle Axel," she said quietly. "You handle the mess."

"Yes, ma’am," Oscar replied. "Sleep well. Tomorrow, we will make a move!"

The call ended.

Evelyn lowered her phone and stared at the moon once more. This time, her heart was steadier.

They could insult her.

But Oliver was untouchable.

Evelyn took another deep breath before slipping her phone into her pocket.

Just as she was about to turn away from the window, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist.

She stiffened for only a second.

The warmth, the familiar scent, the steady presence behind her made her shoulders relax almost instantly.

She did not need to look back. She already knew it was Axel. He did not speak. He simply held her from behind, his chin resting lightly on her head, his arms firm and protective.

They stood like that for a long moment, the quiet stretching between them.

"You saw the news?" Axel finally asked, his voice low and calm, yet edged with something restrained.

"Hm."

Evelyn turned slowly in his arms until she faced him. Their eyes met, and the composure she had forced on herself wavered.

"I don’t care if they insult me," she said softly. "I have heard worse. But when they insult Oliver..." Her voice trembled despite her effort to stay steady. "It feels like a thousand nails stabbing my heart all at once."

She spoke calmly, but her eyes shimmered, betraying the pain she was trying so hard to contain.
