*Haha! Hasn’t anyone wamed you about ripping your pants if you’re not careful? You should be mindful of your own limits!” Axel
burst into laughter on the spot.
It had been a very long time since he was able to laugh so heartily. After all, the atmosphere at the secret spy headquarters was
always very tense and serious.
Jonah’s expression softened as he watched his younger brothers mess around. At that moment, he couldn’t help but reminisce
about the past.
“Speaking of gifts, look at what I got Lyse.”
Axel’s eyes glinted mischievously as he showed the others a silver rectangular box while looking excited.
After punching in a complex passcode, Axel opened the box and revealed the contents for all to see, Jonah froze up while Silas
inhaled sharply in return.
The R&D department in the headquarters created this gun recently. There’s a mix of ammo and tranquilizers in this revolver.
Lyse can spin the cylinder to the left if she is in danger. The tranquilizers are more than enough to put her target to sleep for
three days. If she wants that target dead, she can spin to the right for regular ammo.”
Axel started introducing the second item. “This lighter acts like a mini grenade. It’s convenient to carry it around. Not to mention it
packs quite a punch. It’s powerful enough to destroy a building, after all. Ah, let’s not forget about this baby!”
No matter hAxel’s age, he’d forever be a child at heart. He proceeded to flaunt the last gadget in
the box smugly. “Lyse loves jewelry, doesn’t she? I have this ring custom–made just for her! Look
at it! Isn’t it beautiful?”
Silas was curious about the ring. He was about to start fiddling with it when Axel suddenly gripped his wrist.
“Don’t touch it. That ring is capable of pricking you with venomous needles. The venom is even
stronger than that of a rattlesnake’s.”
Jonah looked down at his feet. “May God bless you. Amen.”
A look of fright appeared on Silas‘ face. “How could you give Lyse such dangerous weapons?”
“Pssh! You know nothing about how useful my gadgets are!”
Axel narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Jasper Beckett, that fucking piece of shit! How dare he
bully my sister! I’ve prepared those gifts just for him! Lyse will be the one deciding his fate!”

Silas was impressed by Axel’s ferocity.
“Axel, now that you’ve returned, how long do you plan on staying this time?” Jonah asked in
concem
“Half a month, give or take.”
Axel looked a little reluctant to leave after a short period of time.
He explained, “I need to fly to Mosgravia for an urgent mission. So, I need to travel there in advance just to make preparations. If
it weren’t for that, I’d have liked to stay here and spend more time with Lyse.”
“Your job comes first. Silas and I will protect Lyse. So, don’t worry about her.”
Jonah paused briefly before asking in a softer tone, “Are you going to visit Dad? We were just talking about you a few days ago.”
“Nah. We tend to fight whenever I visit.” Axel waved dismissively, though he looked slightly gloomy.
Jonah and Silas exchanged looks. They felt a little sad.
Even Alyssa was starting to accept the fact that she had three mothers. Yet, Axel refused to forgive Winston for cheating on his
mother with other women.
That was why he enrolled in a military academy and became a spy despite everyone’s protests. Axel proceeded to leave his
hometown for long periods and worked elsewhere.
He’d rather avoid Winston for the rest of his life.
However, Axel found himself starting to miss his family more over the past two years. Perhaps the older he became, the more
sentiment*l he got. The man frequently recalled the childhood. years he had spent with his siblings.
“Hey, Silas! Let’s go beat Jasper up!”
Axel hooked an arm around Silas‘ neck. They now shared a good relationship despite fighting just
moments ago.
Did Axel mention something about beating Jasper up?
Silas quickly reacted to that statement.
“You’re on your own. Lyse warned us to not cause any trouble for Jas. I can’t go back on my word
now, can I?”
He quickly backed away from Axel.
Axel just chuckled in amusement. His lips then curled into a cheeky smirk.
