Revenged Love
Axel, an eleven-year-old boy, was robbed of his childhood after the brutal assassination of his parents by the Hawthornes - his family’s longtime rivals. His parents had discovered the dark secrets behind the Hawthornes’ wealth, and for that, they paid with their lives.
To deceive the media, the Hawthornes took Axel in, pretending to care for him while secretly turning his life into a living nightmare behind their cold, gilded walls.
Yet, in the midst of that darkness, there was Mia Hawthorne, a girl a year younger than Axel. She was the only one who cared. Every night, she would sneak into the dark room where Axel was locked away, bringing him food and comfort.
She talked to him, shared her heart, but Axel always turned away - silent, haunted, his eyes fixed on the memory of his parents’ lifeless bodies.
But then, by a twist of fate - through Mia’s mistake - Axel escaped, vanishing into the unknown. But he returned, hardened and driven by a single purpose: to destroy the entire Hawthorne bloodline.
Will Axel succeed in wiping out the family that destroyed his life, including the one person who once showed him kindness?
Stay tuned to find out. You don’t want to miss this.

Chapter: Chapter 126The next morning, the ride to the supermarket was quiet. Not uncomfortable, exactly. Just... quiet. Axel had always been a man of few words, so his silence wasn't surprising. Still, she'd noticed the way he'd looked at her when he'd arrived that morning... brief, assessing, almost unreadable, before closing the magazine he'd been reading in the lounge. "Did you have breakfast?" Her thoughts scattered. She blinked at him. "...Yes." "All of it?" There was something almost gentle about the way he asked. She smiled. "Yes. All of it." His expression softened, just slightly. "Good." Now, that was unusual. Mia's gaze dropped to his arm before she could stop herself. The one on the steering wheel. Bare. Well... mostly. He wasn't wearing his trench coat today, only a shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms. And those veins— Lord. She quickly turned her attention to the window before she could embarrass herself. Behave, Mia. Unfortunate

Chapter: Chapter 125By the time work was over, Mia was already outside the company, waiting for her Uber. The night air had grown noticeably colder. She rubbed her hands over her arms, silently regretting not wearing something warmer. Her shirt was doing very little to protect her from the cold. And what was taking this Uber so long? She glanced down the road and sighed. The ride Axel had arranged that morning had clearly been a one-time thing. She hadn't expected the driver to come for her again, especially since Axel hadn't mentioned anything about it. So she'd made other arrangements. She stood quietly, waiting for her ride. Then she heard voices from inside. Or rather, laughter. A woman's laughter. A man's voice followed, apparently the reason for it. The sound drew closer until the doors finally opened. Andrew stepped outside. Mia wasn't surprised. She'd already guessed who it was. "Mia," he called as soon as he spotted her. Anastasia followed him outside. Mia smil

Chapter: Chapter 124Later that evening, Mia sat in her office with a smile that refused to fade. She should've been focusing on the files scattered across her desk. Instead... She found herself staring at the same paragraph for the fourth time. This was hopeless. Every time she tried to concentrate... Axel found his way back into her thoughts. He'd been unusually... attentive today. Not that she'd ever admit it out loud. Twice he'd called her into his office. Once for a file that had been sitting on his desk all along. The second time to print a single sheet of paper. A single sheet. She couldn't decide whether he genuinely hadn't noticed... Or whether he simply wanted an excuse to see her. The thought made her cheeks warm. She quickly shook her head. "No." "Don't be ridiculous." She was reading far too much into it. ...Wasn't she? Her phone lit up again. She didn't even need to look twice. It was Axel. She answered almost instantly. "H—" "My office. Now." The line went dead. M

Chapter: Chapter 123A/N: I'm really sorry I haven't updated in a few days. I've been incredibly occupied with... well, everything. I haven't even had much time for myself. But I'm so glad to be back now! Here's the next chapter. ❤️ * * * Somewhere else in the company... Andrew sat buried behind his laptop, so focused that the rest of the office had all but disappeared. Luis. Mark. Luke. Connor. He'd gone through every report they had. Luis had relied heavily on Mark to run his operations. Mark, in turn, kept a small circle. The two men he trusted most were Luke Walker and Connor Reed. Neither had any connection to Taylor. If anything, every answer only seemed to lead to three more questions. Andrew leaned back with a tired sigh, rubbing a hand over his face. Axel hadn't left anyone standing that night. Luis's entire operation had been wiped out. Even now, remembering that night sent a chill down his spine. It had been ruthless. Cold. He'd never seen Axel like

Chapter: Chapter 122The next morning, Mia woke before her alarm had the chance to ring. Today felt different. It was supposed to be her last day. Instead... She'd never looked forward to going to work this much. No matter what she did... The corners of her lips just wouldn't stay down. If anyone had asked why she looked so happy, she probably would've blurted it out without thinking. I'm staying! I'm really staying! A few minutes later, she stood outside the hotel, waiting for the driver Axel had promised would pick her up. Somehow... Their conversation from the previous night refused to leave her mind. Especially one particular sentence. "You're not everyone." She could still hear his voice. Her cheeks warmed all over again. The cold morning breeze swept past, making her shiver. Thankfully, her trousers and long-sleeved shirt kept most of the cold away. "Stop thinking about him." She'd repeated that sentence to herself at least five times already. It hadn't helpe

Chapter: Chapter 121Later that night, after finally catching up on some sleep and learning a few more Russian phrases, Mia stepped out onto the balcony. She was dressed warmly in an oversized blue sweater, loose pink striped trousers, and thick socks. A mug of coffee warmed her hands while the cold wind played with her hair. Lightning flickered across the distant sky, painting the city in silver before darkness returned. For a while, she simply admired the view. Then something below caught her attention. She looked down. The smile faded from her face. Several men in dark suits stood around the hotel's swimming pool. One... Two... Three... No. There were too many to count at a glance. Mia frowned. What on earth was going on? There had to be an explanation. Maybe they were someone's bodyguards. Someone important could've checked into the hotel. Or perhaps the management had increased security around the grounds. ...Though that seemed a little excessive. Her gaze li
