His Devious Rule

In the police agency,

Everyone rushed out to see Gabriel on the floor, holding his hand and crying. Casper went out clenching his teeth at a new drama.

Captain Will asked as he signaled the other cops to help the man, "What happened?" His words trailed away when he saw the couple hugging each other. Then those two made their way out without bother.

"Err… Captain Will, this man tried to touch Ms. Owen. The man with her broke his hand…" Mercilessly.

Gianna recovered from the shock and stammered, "Hos-hospital."

Logan reminded them, "He needs to sign the papers before leaving. But his right hand…"

Captain Will wasn't ready to receive a complaint of assault. He wanted to get rid of these people as soon as possible. "Take his fingerprint and let them go."

The cops took a fingerprint from the hand that had no life.

Gianna sat in the backseat with her brother and chided him, "Are you crazy? Why did you try to touch that woman?"

Gabriel groaned in pain, breathing breathlessly, "Th-that b*tch was stunned looking at me. I-I thought that Bastard was a-angry at her for checking me out." He tried to drive a wedge between them, who knew Alvin was going to be the monster, and didn't doubt Anya.

Gianna's lips twitched uncontrollably. Although Gabriel was good-looking, he was nearing forty. Whereas Alvin had the looks that make girls blush if he just glances at them.

Not to mention, Alvin was a hundred times wealthier and more powerful than the Sallow family whereas Gabriel was a use-for-nothing son of the Sallow family.

Why in the freaking hell would Anya check out Gabriel over Alvin?

Gianna who wanted to think everything was over, felt a cold run down her spine. Her eyes widened and the cold sweat started appearing on her forehead.

She used to think Anya was an idiot, clueless small-town girl. After three encounters with her, one thing was sure, she was sharp and sly.

If she was looking at Gabriel, then she must have a reason. Her hands shook when she turned to the man beside her. She could only hope Anya didn't identify Gabriel.

Meanwhile, in another car, Casper was back to his cold and heartless mode, "Block all her cards. Seize the cars, and keep an eye on all her activities, including her mobile. Don't let her meet the Sallow family, install a camera in her office room. She should go nowhere other than to home and office. Anything suspicious ground her immediately. Appoint a new assistant for her.  Get rid of the PA Jones, change every worker she appointed…"

Harrison was shocked for a second before managing to click on the record button to tape Casper's instructions which went on and on. He could imagine a new fight every day at the Matthews mansion from that day on.

Whereas another side of the two,

A black car was smoothly going towards the Owen house when Anya suddenly squeaked, "Stop, stop, stop…"

Alarmed, Rob quickly pulled the car to the right and looked behind. He saw Anya pointing at the window, grinning mischievously at Alvin. He turned to the other side and saw it was the backside of a school. He was inarticulate, realizing she was planning to sneak into her school.

Alvin understood it too. Couldn't they enter through the main gates? Why was she pointing to the tall wall fence?

"Now!?"

Anya nodded vigorously, excited to show her school to him.

"Here?"

Anya nodded again, the shrubs were hiding the secret path to the school. She always saw the naughty students sneak around. She was tempted to try it but she was also a diligent student.

Alvin alighted the car to see what she was up to. Anya asked Rob to get to the gates of the school and got out of the car and stood by Alvin.

"How?"

"Crawling."

Alvin: "…"

"I always wanted to try it." She made a sulking face.

Face palming himself in his mind, he let her tug him to the wall. Then she went behind the shrub and kicked the snow away, like a child who finally got the chance to play.

Alvin: "…"

Crawling through the hole of the wall? He glanced at his tall muscly frame and the little woman in front of him, Does he look small in her eyes?

Anya signaled him to follow her and went on her four limbs. She smoothly entered as she pushed the snow away.

Alvin looked around to confirm nobody was watching them. He was obviously awkward. He always boldly walked out of the class and school, fearing no one. So it never came to his mind about sneaking around.

'Crush.'

"…" Anya lifted her head to see Alvin who jumped off the tall wall as smooth as butter.

Standing on her four limbs, looking at the tall sauce man, why was she looking immature and he entered so impressively?

Anya wanted to dig up the ground and bury herself.

Seeing her still on her limbs, he pulled her up, dusted her legs, and rubbed her palms. "Ahh… Alvin, I wanted to see you crawling." In reality, she was embarrassed about herself.

What kind of wish was that?

Removing his overcoat, he draped it on her shoulders as he responded in his low husky voice near her ear, "Sure, on the bed." He made her thoughts run wild.

Anya tried not to flinch at his warm breath. She wanted to imagine Alvin crawling on the bed like little baby but ended up picturing Alvin crawling on the bed but trapping her beneath him.

Flush crept down her neck. 'This man is corrupting my mind.' She pointed towards a building, "W-we will go there." She went ahead, trying to hide her flushed face, and heard his teasing laughter.

Watching the kids in uniform, Alvin remembered Little Brat, "Why isn't Zane going to school?"

Anya felt bad seeing him walking in a thin sweater over his shirt. Climbing on a block, she put his coat back on him as she was wearing a thick sweater top.

"We have been going around for three weeks, how am I going to send him?" Sending him a day and taking another holiday didn't feel right. So she didn't bother Zane with the school.

Now that she is free from work and focusing on the new home, "We should resume school from Monday. Anyway, my baby doesn't need preschool, he could be admitted to class one directly." Being with her while working, Zane had learned a lot without troubling her.

Anya started leaping while pointing at a board, "There, there… My name…"

Alvin looked at the chubby school girl's picture. Her fuller cheeks were pink with deep dimples. The bangs on her forehead covered her whole forehead as she held the gold medal in her hand.

"Little Goofball was cuter." Alvin chuckled looking at her eyes curled into a crescent, tilting her head adorably in the picture.

'Goofball!?' Anya looked at him in bewilderment. "I was the winner of the Mathematics Olympiad." She said it was more like a complaint.

How was she a goofball?

Alvin read the line below her picture and looked at her. He teased, "How did you fool so many people to give you gold?" He knew long back that she was good in mathematics and reasoning hence she was able to be a top-notch hacker.

Anya: "…"

Pulling her sleeves up, she showed him her fists, "Trust me, I won't stop until you beg." She exclaimed and lifted her hand to punch him.

Alvin chuckled as he caught her hand and locked her in his arms, hearing her whine, and controlling her struggles.

Anya stopped struggling to watch a teacher giving lessons to students in a class that wasn't far away.

Alvin embraced her as he followed her line of sight. Then he peaked at her little face which was thinking something deep. "Wondering to enter the education field?"

Anya hummed. She was considering it. "A professor!!"  If she passes the interview, she will probably have to be an assistant professor. "With that job, I can give my baby and you a good quality of time." Her work time will be fixed, with no extra workload and her schedule won't be tight.

Alvin fell silent for quite a long time. Turning around to face him, "Unsuitable for me?"

"Why don't you follow me around?" He suggested.

"Why not!?" Anya said despite knowing what he was thinking.

Alvin didn't get happy and waited for her to complete, "I will come to you as soon as I get free."

Alvin shook his head in resignation, squeezing her into his arms forgetting they were in a school.

"Who is there!?" A hoarse voice of a male sounded.

"Run…" Anya ran holding Alvin's hand, pretending to be caught doing a crime.

Alvin felt like he was caught bunking classes with his girlfriend to go out on a date.

The security chased after them out of the gates till the duo snuck in the car and Rob drove away.

Alvin was bewildered, "Why did we run?" They killed nobody.

Anya held her stomach and laughed hard. Although they weren't allowed to roam around in the school premises without permission, an apology would have worked. Alvin ran behind her without even thinking.

Alvin: "…"

He ignored her grumpily while being glad she found something she was interested in doing.

Meantime in a hospital,

Gianna swiped all her cards boiling in rage. Gabriel paid his bills and snickered at her. "Sister Gianna, welcome to the hell of a life." Gianna lived all her years gloriously without lacking money or freedom. It was going to be too tough for her.

Gianna gritted her teeth hearing her younger brother. Rather than being helpless, she was angered at her husband and her hatred for Alvin and Anya was just growing without limits.
