His Devious Rule

"Little Donut, who is the father of your son?" Alvin sounded annoyed and colder when he questioned.

Linus who heard the question was also curious about it. He couldn't understand why the information related to Zane's birth was a mystery. Were they just a common family? Who could protect their data? Or who could clean up the information so smoothly?

He had the same doubts as Alvin. Alvin's father, Chairman Matthews or Madam Matthews must have played dirty five years ago. He once doubted that Anya might have been violated and became pregnant. He even checked if there was any complaint registered, however, there were none.

Then how could a girl who had no boyfriend, never partied, suddenly become a mother? Did she really have a one-night stand? Or did she become a victim of that Matthews family?

While Linus and Alvin's thoughts were on different tracks, Anya's heart shuddered violently in her chest. Her lungs refused to breathe and her body turned cold as ice. It was good that Krystle was covering her.

Anya had thought she would get used to his leap from one topic to another. She was aware Alvin was too smart, his silence means a lot that one could fathom. But she wasn't ready to hear or respond to the questions about her son's birth.

Krystle was shocked without understanding how Alvin shifted to that topic. However, recalling Anya that night, her anger just shot up, "That's none of your goddamn business." Krystle had no idea the more they raise their tone, and avoid the topic, Alvin would get suspicions of it further.

Alvin's brow tugged at her response. From Krystle's behavior, Alvin was sure, she knows everything and she probably knows his family situation as well.

Hearing her, Alvin wanted to hold her by the collar and throw her out like holding a puppy by the collar and throwing it away. He was asking Anya, not her.

He sat back on the couch glancing at Linus. The latter glanced at him and nodded, stating he will again thoroughly check about the details.

Krystle held Anya's hand and took her towards the door.

'Thud,' The main door was closed from outside.

Krystle was incensed. She wanted to break that man's head with something. Stomping towards the drawing-room, she was about to scowl, she saw the television screen that was playing a video of a truck breaking the gates and entering inside. Followed by it, the car came in and halted in front of the mansion. The video ended when Krystle entered the mansion.

Linus snickered. His brother dug a hole, the lady went and sat inside.

Anya: "..."

She wasn't surprised by what Krystle did, she glared at Alvin. He purposefully let Krystle break inside so that he could have evidence against Krystle. Even Harper couldn't break into Alvin's mansion.

The mansion had three layers of gates and armed men for security. The truck broke in was a thin metal gate that was breakable by a strong force. The other gates were like walls, bulletproof and damage-proof.

Krystle was yet to understand, Alvin looked at his Little Kitten who fiercely glared at him, "Little Donut, what are you going to do?" He mused.

Krystle gritted her teeth hearing 'Little Donut.' She turned to him and heard him continue addressing Anya, "The choice yours to make. Leave and send your friend to prison or stay and be good."

Though Anya agreed to stay at his place, he knew it was due to her safety. Krystle and her family may not be able to provide his level of safety, she could keep Anya hidden for time being.

Krystle realized Alvin wasn't threatening her but Anya. The latter would take a bullet for her rather than see her in trouble. "Alvin Matthews, you are devious." Craving to punch him, she even rushed two steps but Anya held her back.

Anya knew Alvin doesn't tolerate anybody other than her. She wanted her friend to be unharmed.

Krystle struggled to get out of Anya's grip while she glowered at Alvin, "Stay and be good, my foot. Alvin Matthews, do you think you are keeping Annie safe from that bastard Harper Johnson? You are pushing her into hell. Who the f**k will save Annie from you? Do you think that shitty family and the b*tchy fianceé of yours, will let her live peacefully? You…"

Krystle stumbled when Anya suddenly let go of her. Krystle regretted venting out on Alvin in front of Anya. She knew about Alvin all these years due to the same circle in society. Nevertheless, she never told Anya about him. She had no idea how Anya would react if she got to know the woman she tried to keep away from Alvin was actually announced as his fianceé.

Linus furrowed. He couldn't understand how Krystle knew so much about Alvin. He uneasily looked at his brother for mentioning about the fianceé he never accepted or agreed to his family.

Alvin's expression couldn't be more terrifying after hearing Krystle. Though whatever Krystle said was true about his family, he wasn't afraid of doing the reverse. He was annoyed at the mention of the woman who was flaunting herself as his fianceé, the daughter-in-law of Matthews.

Before he could say anything, Anya's low, cold voice sounded, "Who is his fianceé?"

Linus's lips twitched hearing the question. He couldn't track why the topic was going from one to another. "Bro isn't engaged." It was created by the Matthews family when Alvin wasn't even in the city. Alvin had no time to bother about their pettiness.

Krystle turned to Anya ignoring Linus and uneasily responded, "Flora Dalton."

Linus: "..."

Anya felt like laughing, laughing at herself, her stupidity, and her foolishness. She was really laughable in the past and the present. Her lips curled a mocking sneer and she questioned, restraining her voice, "Alvin Matthews, was she included in your drunk and drugged plan?"

Krystle's face darkened, "What do you mean by the plan? Was he acting?" That day, she thought Alvin was really drugged by Flora who was trying to get on his bed for five-plus years.

Alvin and Anya's eyes were in a deadlock. One wasn't ready to respond and another one wasn't ready to give up so easily. Anya clenched her teeth and gave him another chance, "Alvin Matthews, I am giving you the last chance. Was she included in your plan?"

Anya had no idea about the relationship between Alvin and Flora. So she had her own analysis. If Flora Dalton was present at her villa so that Anya could fall into their trap, which she obviously fell, Anya swore in her mind to destroy each one who dragged her into this situation.

Linus and Krystle were the anxious ones there. Linus knew his brother wouldn't justify or answer to anybody. Krystle was afraid Anya might be hurt by all these.

With her question, Alvin's mood was at its worst. He discerned that Anya knew Flora Dalton drugged him. He couldn't believe she even thought he was with that woman when she actually knew he was always disgusted by that woman.

Krystle saw Alvin mute. She never cared when he was rudely ignoring the girls who were fawning over him. Seeing him bring Annie to his place and ignore her questions, she couldn't hold herself, "Let me kill this man today." She pulled her sleeves up and charged forward.
