    **TITLE: Secret Lover 218**


    **CONTENT: 218 You Are Not Mad?**


    Axel trailed just a few steps behind Evelyn, his expression inscrutable, a tempest of emotions churning within him. The startling news that his mother had reached out to Evelyn, instructing her to keep it all under wraps from him, echoed in his mind like a haunting refrain. *What could possibly motivate her to do something like that?* he pondered, his curiosity igniting a flicker of concern. He remained an observer, his gaze fixed on her, absorbing every nuance of her demeanor as she wrapped up the call.


    He noticed the way her shoulders sagged with a long, deep exhale, as if she were releasing a pent-up breath she hadn’t realized she was holding. She instinctively tucked her hand into her trouser pocket, a subtle gesture that suggested she was attempting to regain herposure. It was during this moment of stillness that Axel finally cleared his throat, the soft sound slicing through the quietude like a sharp de.


    Evelyn jumped slightly, her body turning toward him in surprise, her features a picture of astonishment. “A-Axel…” she stammered, her voice faltering as she searched for the right words to articte the unexpected situation.


    The guilt etched across her face tugged at the corners of his mouth, prompting a sly smile to emerge, a delightful blend of amusement and affection. “So,” he began, his tone deliberately slow and teasing, “my wife has now joined forces with my mother to conspire against me?”


    Panic flickered in Evelyn’s eyes, hershes fluttering as she fidgeted with her fingers, which were now tightly sped in front of her. “A-Axel… I can exin. Your mother—”


    Axel raised an eyebrow, his lips curving into a yful smirk as curiosity mingled with amusement. He stepped closer, his towering presence bothforting and intimidating. “My mother,” he echoed softly, “and what exactly did she say that has you looking so anxious?”


    Evelyn bit her lip, caught in a limbo betweenughter and tears. “She, um… invited me to lunch. And told me not to tell you,” she confessed, her voice barely above a whisper.


    For a heartbeat, Axel simply stared at her, his expression unreadable, as if weighing the significance of her words. Then, as if a light had been switched on, his gaze softened. He reached out, brushing his thumb gently against her cheek, a tender gesture that spoke volumes of his affection. “I’m surprised she called you,” he murmured, curiositycing his tone. “How did she even get your number?”


    Evelyn swallowed hard, the gravity of the situation pressing down on her. “You’re not mad?” she asked cautiously, her heart racing. She had braced herself for a colder reaction, perhaps one of his infamous icy res that could freeze anyone in their tracks.


    Instead, Axel chuckled, the sound rich and warm, wrapping around her like aforting embrace. He slipped his arms around her waist, pulling her close until their bodies were nearly fused together. “No,” he replied, his voice low and steady. “Just surprised.” His eyes sparkled with a mix of affection and mischief. “Though I’m not quite sure who I should be more concerned about… you or her.”


    Evelyn couldn’t help but smile faintly, the tension in her shoulders easing a fraction. “Maybe both,” she suggested, a hint ofughter bubbling in her voice.


    He chuckled again, guiding her toward the sofa, his arm still draped possessively around her waist as they settled down together. He tilted his head, studying her with a yful smile. “Next time, Eve,” he said with mock seriousness, “give me a heads-up before my mother starts plotting secret lunches with my wife.”


    Evelyn sighed softly, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear. “I didn’t n this, I swear. Your grandmother is the one who gave your mother my number,” she exined, her tone earnest.


    “Of course she did,” Axel replied, rolling his eyes with a hint of exasperation. “Grandma’s been waiting for this moment since the day I told her I was married.” He sighed deeply, a mixture of affection and frustration coloring his voice. “I still feel guilty for agreeing right away without consulting you first. I’m sorry—”


    Axel brushed her hand gently, his touch sending a wave of warmth coursing through her. “Don’t be. But…” he added, his tone shifting to a more serious note, “you can’t meet her alone. I won’t allow it.”


    Her eyes widened in surprise, disbelief etched across her features. “What? Why not?”


    “Because,” Axel said, a slow smile creeping across his lips, “between my mother and you, I’m not quite sure who will wreak havoc on my peace first. I need to be there to defend myself.”


    Evelyn burst intoughter, the tension evaporating entirely. “You make it sound like we’re preparing for war.”


    “Lunch with my mother is a war,” he replied dryly, leaning closer, a mischievous glint dancing in his eyes. “So, I’lle along.”


    “Fine,” she conceded, pretending to sigh in resignation. “But don’t look so tense when you meet her. I’ll make sure she behaves.”


    Axel’s eyes sparkled with a mix of amusement and disbelief. “Behaves? You think you can control Amanda Knight?”


    Evelyn crossed her arms defiantly, her confidence shining through. “I can try. After a few minutes talking to her, she sounds like a lot of fun.”


    Heughed again, the sound echoing with warmth, then leaned in and captured her lips in a gentle kiss. It started off soft, a tender exploration, but soon deepened naturally, as if the air around them melted away, leaving only the two of them in their own world. Her fingers brushed against his cor, his warmth enveloping her. Just as he was about to tilt her chin higher, a loud knock reverberated through the room.


    Axel froze, his jaw tightening in irritation. He turned slowly toward the door, his re sharp enough to cut through steel.


    Evelyn pulled back, breathless, and immediately stifled augh. “Don’t look like that,” she whispered yfully, a smile dancing on her lips. “You’re scaring whoever’s out there.”


    “I’m going to fire them. No, I will kill them!” Axel muttered, his voice dangerously calm, though the humor in his eyes betrayed his irritation.


    “Don’t kill them,” she teased, cupping his cheek affectionately. “I’m starving. Let them live until after lunch.”


    Her yful tone softened the edge of his frustration. He sighed, sitting up straight and adjusting his tie as the knock came again, this time more insistent.


    “Come in,” he said, his tone sharpened with authority.


    The door swung open, revealing Dn, who looked distinctly nervous, apanied by a female staff member pushing a cartden with covered dishes and elegant tableware.


    “Sir,” Dn greeted cautiously, darting nces between Axel and Evelyn. “I, uh, brought your lunch.”


    Axel’s expression remained unchanged, a stoic mask that sent a chill down Dn’s spine. He merely nodded slowly, his stare still intimidating.


    Dn swallowed hard, clearly flustered. “I’ll… just set it up in the private dining room.”


    Evelyn leaned slightly toward Axel and whispered, “See? He looks like he’s walking to his execution. Be nice.”


    Axel’s lips twitched, his re softening as he replied in a low voice, “Only because you asked.”


    He turned to Dn. “Arrange it there. Quickly.”


    “Yes, sir!” Dn moved faster than usual, almost tripping over himself in his haste. The female staff member followed suit, setting the silver trays neatly on the dining table inside the adjoining room.


    Once everything was in ce, Dn cleared his throat. “All ready, sir. Ma’am.”


    “Good,” Axel replied tly, his tone brooking no argument.


    Dn gestured to the female staff following him before practically sprinting for the door, eager to escape the tension in the air.


    As soon as the door clicked shut behind them, Evelyn covered her mouth,ughter bubbling up uncontrobly. “You really do enjoy terrifying your employees, don’t you?”


    He smirked, slipping his hand back around her waist, pulling her closer once more. “Of course not. But if they annoy me, naturally I will…”


    She shook her head, amusement dancing in her eyes. “Come on, Mr. Knight. Lunch first, murderter.”


    With a deep chuckle, he led her to the dining table, the earlier tension melting away in the warmth of their sharedughter.
