Through the passage of time and a multitude of shared experiences, Axel’s mindset subtly and


    gradually shifted.


    After a while, Tatiana woke up abruptly.


    She straightened up in surprise, and her eyes stared vacantly into the distance. She used her hand to


    wipe


    away the drool from the corner of her mouth. T


    “Why did you wake up already? Nap a little longer,” Axel chuckled. Her cute expression reminded him


    of


    Alyssa’s childhood days.


    “S-Sorry, Axel!”


    Tatiana panicked. She blushed when she realized that her drool had stained Axel’s shoulder.


    “I-I dirtied your shirt. I’ll wash it clean when we get home! I’m sorry!”


    Axel couldn’t help but feel sorry for his youngest sister when he observed her distress.


    The Taylor siblings often revolved around Alyssa, subconsciously considering her the youngest.


    Little did they realize that Tatiana was the one who needed more concern as she was the youngest in


    the


    family. Yet, she was often overlooked.


    “It’s okay, don’t worry about it,” Axel assured her with a gentle brotherly smile while patting his thigh.


    “Come on, lie down here. It’sfortable.”


    Tatiana’s face blushed even more as she hesitated, “This… This isn’t appropriate.”


    “Lyse alwaysy on my thigh and slept soundly in the past,” Axel said as he reminisced.


    Tatiana pressed her lips together, anxiously fidgeting with her hands till they turned red.


    Axel knew she couldn’t and wouldn’t do as he suggested


    To Tatiana, he was just a half-brother. The fact that he considered her his sister was enough to make


    her


    content


    Axel let out a sigh. He removed his overcoat and draped it over Tatiana’s shoulders, envelo


    figure


    “Axel, I’m not cold You should wear it. Tatiane said while attempting to remove it


    Axel looked at her with a gentle gaze and pressed her shoulder over his coat.


    “Be good and leave it on if you truly consider me your brother.”


    Tatiana no longer resisted.


    She felt a surge of warmth in her heart. There were even a few traces of tears in her eyes.


    Gratitude for Alyssa welled up in her heart. It was all thanks to Alyssa that she found herself embraced


    by


    the care of her brother.


    At that moment, distant voices reached their ears.


    “Taty, wait here. I’ll check it out.”


    Axel stood up and walked toward themotion.


    When he saw Jasper and Landon, Axel’s expression instantly froze. His handsome features quickly


    turned dark and chilling.


    “Fuck, it’s him!”


    Landon recognized Axel at a nce. He recalled the scene where this guy mercilessly beat Jasper,


    and it sent shivers down his spine.


    “You fucking bastard, how dare you show your face here?”


    Axel’s muscles tightened, and his gaze became intense as he confronted Jasper.


    “Leave immediately before my temper res up. Get lost!”


    Jasper lifted his pale and woeful face. His throat was catching as he spoke, “I want to see Lyse. I have


    something to tell her.”


    “She has nothing to talk to you about. Leave now!” Axel red fiercely.


    Jasper’s eyes were bloodshot. He took a deep breath and countered, “No. I won’t leave if I can’t see


    her!”


    He aggressively attempted to force his way inside as he uttered those words, appearing as though he


    was driven by madness.


    Axel aimed to halt him, but Landon, who anticipated this situation, quickly used a stun baton on Axel’s


    lower back.
