His Devious Rule

Chapter 336 The Record Of Sins



Alvin didn't want to stress Anya with more issues. She was worried about Zane, he didn't want him to be one of the reasons.

But seeing her sit back silently, he couldn't bring himself to ignore her. On second thought, she should also know the real faces of the people where he grew up. So he unlocked the mobile and handed it to her.

Anya looked at the mobile which had received a message from Rob, [Cordelia Milton.] She turned to Alvin who briefed whatever happened in the morning with Ean due to misidentification. He also showed her the video of trucks passing by the car almost immediately at different junctions.

It could be a coincidence if it was once. But thrice in a row and then the car flipping over wasn't a situation to be ignored. She could understand why cops only checked the accident zone. They would only go through every movement if they knew someone was attacking them.

"Cordelia Milton is behind this?" Anya asked in disbelief. She couldn't believe the woman who got fooled by her little son was a downright black-hearted woman. Now, she didn't want to leave her son a second around them.

Anya grabbed the hair on her crown to tie it as she asked, "Do you have a laptop?" She can clear the video from fog, get the vehicle number and obtain the evidence to find the link to Cordelia.

Alvin knew her little brain would immediately start working like a cop to catch the thief. He took her hair clip away from her hands and spoke, "The trucks are from the Matthews Industries, Benjamin Matthews is acting on behalf of Cordelia Milton. I will take care of this. You focus on your mission. I will inform you if there is any development." His men had taken care of everything.

Anya pursed her lips hearing him. She used to deal with criminals who were a threat to society. How could she sit silently when she knew the two were a threat to her own family?

More than her mission she wanted to deal with these women so that her son and her husband wouldn't be in danger. Nevertheless, she took a deep breath and nodded in acceptance, "Alright." She gave him a heads up, "Nothing illegal."

If things go out of hand, she doesn't want to stand in a position where she will have to interrogate or let others interrogate her husband or his people.

She didn't want to see a day where she would have to choose either him or her duty. Importantly, his conduct in society directly affects her job.

Alvin saw her stretch her hands towards him. He scooped her to his lap and rubbed her back when she hugged him. He felt her heart beating loudly.

He could guess she would have been confident and comfortable if he let her deal with them. Doing nothing, and believing him to handle everything was making her feel powerless. But he was glad she was able to do it by relying on him instead of trying to solve everything on her own.

He assured her in a gentle voice, "I have informed everyone. We will not do anything against the laws."

He had already kept her on a pedestal by stealing the hard disk. He wasn't going to do something that will affect her again.

Anya pulled herself back and seriously suggested, "If you want to beat someone, I can do it." As a secret service cop, she just needs a valid reason to deal with anybody.

Alvin pinched her cheek. Wasn't she asking him if he was going to beat Miles Johnson? Now she wanted to be the bad girl for him.

Wait, she was always the badass Officer Owen, wasn't she?

However, he was aware she was also inexperienced in something. He teased her with her dialogue, "If I want to eat someone?" His deep voice floated in the air when his arms went around her waist and tugged her closer.

Anya took the literal meaning without fathoming his words. She snorted thinking he was just making fun of her, "I don't eat human meat."

Whereas, Alvin imagined her eating his meat. 'Ahem,' He cleared his throat. He wanted to shift her back to her seat before his meat got excited. However, his eyes caught her expression slowly changing.

Her silly grumpiness unhurriedly changed to a bit of confusion as her eyebrows tightened. When her eyes widened, she crawled away to her seat and tugged her overcoat around her, and turned at him, with a look of disdain.

"Pervert. Stay away from me." Whereas her face was glowing bright red in disbelief and fluster. Anya couldn't believe her mind was adulterated staying with Alvin.

Alvin burst into a throaty chuckle. He did mean to tease her but she naively countered making herself more embarrassed.

Alvin continued to have fun with her, without caring that news about him and Skylark were uproaring on social media. And his own parental family was trying to kill him.

–––––

At Matthews's mansion,

When Casper entered the mansion with Harrison in tow, Cordelia started pretending like she just got to know about Skylark through the business news channel.

"Casper, what is going on? People are saying Alvin is going to take over the Matthews Industries."

Casper halted and looked at the two women. Gianna was sitting as if she wasn't bothered. How could it be? She should be the most panicked one considering Liam might lose to the bastard.

Anyway, his eyes settled on his mother. When he got to know Zane was Alvin's son, he was finding ways to get them, until Liam could have another baby.

He had a plan to let Anya be the dean of the university before finding ways to make her resign. In this period, they could have found ways to get them.

However, his mother ruined everything, forcing him to appear at Anya's villa. To satisfy his pride and ego, he kept retaliating and now the whole business and socialites were laughing at them.

Cordelia is his mother. How could he blame her? So Casper responded to what he learned, "Alvin doesn't want the company, mom." He calmly responded, burning his annoyance.

Casper was about to take a step to leave, Cordelia asked, pointing at the television screen, "Why did you tell those two were together for six plus years? People are laughing at us saying we were putting on a show with the Daltons."

Casper lost it and growled at Cordelia, "What do you expect me to say? Your daughter-in-law drugged Alvin and there is another bastard?"

The world might be modern, technology might be growing, and people might talk rubbish on social media, Casper knew how people speak about a small flaw.

And anyway, they might have announced the engagement six years ago, Alvin was never with Flora. Even if Daltons tried to reach the media, they had nothing to say.

Gianna smiled when she heard 'bastard'. She might be the only one who addresses Alvin and Zane as 'Bastard' but deep down, Casper and Cordelia also see Alvin and Zane as illegitimate. They just pretend to be good on the surface.

Cordelia would have gotten angry if it was anybody but her son raising her voice at her. So she glanced at Gianna who was smiling. Just when she thought Casper's mistake was being covered, Gianna made another mistake.

Casper pinched his nose bridge and breathed out through his mouth. What's done is done, they need to focus on resolving it.

"Let's not give more reasons for the media and people to gossip about us. We are attending the party in the evening." Then he went upstairs.

Gianna filed her nails when she called out, "Secretary Harrison, ask my designer to get me some choices of dresses for the banquet."

Harrison and Cordelia: "..."

Gianna looked so chilled out. Harrison started to doubt what she was planning, anyway, he responded, "I will arrange them right away, Madam Matthews."

Casper ignored Gianna. He wanted to call Liam to return to the country. Only Liam could stop Alvin from attacking the company. Casper didn't fear facing trouble, but their reputation will be ruined.

Little did he know, his efforts would be futile. The two women had done a lot of things behind his back.

Since Karma didn't catch up, the couple was picking up the record of their sins.
