His Devious Rule

Chapter 413 Time Bombs

'Skylark is started for my wife.'

Alvin did settle in Narnia for his wife and shifted all his work to Narnia. When he was doing everything for his wife, he could also put a whole organization to work for his wife.

While Ean and Rob were speechless at Alvin's display of excess affection, Alvin's eyes went to the iPad. He saw the first picture of the article. Anya was speechless while Krystle was holding sexy lingerie with a teasing smile.

Ean, who snapped out of his stupor, followed Alvin's line of sight on iPad and went around the desk. He furrowed looking at the article title and slid his finger on the screen.

Both men saw the next picture in which Anya was being dragged by Krystle into an international lingerie brand showroom. In another picture, Anya's jaws were down looking at Krystle carrying more than eight bags and twirling.

Ean's eyes brushed over the content of the article and hissed in annoyance, "This is slanderous." He wanted to sue the people.

Alvin deduced that Ean saw the article for the first time and he was there for different reasons. Before hearing another issue, Alvin lifted his gaze to Rob who pretended to be clueless about what those ladies were doing.

Well, Alvin hadn't expected Loudmouth to take his wife to shop for some kinky fetish clothes. First and foremost, his wife's safety, "How is the crowd at the mall?" He solemnly asked while reading the provoking headline of the article.

'Are awards on sale?'

The article could be summarised as Alvin bought the award for Anya faking her achievements. Simply because Anya was too young for such a prestigious award and she was shopping for lingerie instead of being a responsible idealistic woman for the nation.

How ridiculous!

Rob looked at Alvin's cold expression. Anya was very cautious, he could guess she was aware of cameras yet dared to let Krystle play around and get implicated. In a way, Rob commended her for not running away from the trouble despite knowing the consequences.

Rob responded to Alvin, "I have dispatched a team to safely escort Young Madam and Ms. Lewis." As soon as the team reported the article, he found out there was a group of people waiting outside for Anya and took action immediately.

Since the mall was meant for the rich, the security had managed to stop the media from entering inside. However, there will be reporters who will manage to get inside in disguise. They could only hope there won't be more articles or social media posts against Anya.

However, Alvin was silent looking at the article. Anya was very careful about her actions. With so many things going on in their lives, she would least want to increase the trouble. So he tried to analyze if there was any reason behind her actions.

Ean, who was using a mobile to get the details of the media outlet, went towards the door announcing, "I'm suing those people."

Alvin's voice rang before Ean could set his foot out of the door, "Don't."

Rob and Ean: "…"

Although Alvin didn't need money or compensation from petty media outlets, taking action against them would teach people to behave and think twice before writing against them. So it was necessary to take some steps and grow their roots stronger in Narnia.

Alvin lifted his gaze and met Ean's confused eyes. Anya and her team were faking her resignation to join the Imperial University for her next secret mission. To put the guards down, Anya might have to behave a bit spoiled instead of a meticulous officer.

If they conceal her or her actions, criminals of her next mission would eventually doubt her and the threat on Anya will increase. Anya needs a spoiled wife and a wealthy woman image in a short time.

Well, Rob will eventually find out Anya hadn't resigned. However, they don't have to trouble Ean with the complexity of Anya's job or her missions. Ean already had a lot on his plate and a large company of employees to manage.

Thus a smug smirk hung on his lips, Alvin arrogantly responded to brush off the topic, "People should know I spoil my wife."

Ean cursed instantly, "What the…." He gritted his teeth and glared at Alvin, itching to smack the man.

Whereas Rob's brow slightly twitched looking at Alvin. If Anya was a woman who Alvin could have spoiled, then she wouldn't have insisted on getting her own house and Alvin wouldn't have deceived her for the signature.

'Dean of Imperial University?' Rob knew Alvin gave the idea of Anya becoming the dean for the directors of the university. When Alvin was disgusted to link with the Matthews family, why would Alvin do that?

Rob brushed off the topic from his head to focus on his tasks. He responded to Alvin's words, "I will review the articles." They won't delete the articles but let them go viral if it wasn't offending.

Alvin hummed and watched Rob grab his iPad and leave. His eyes fell on Ean who was irritated, yet reported, "Get an assistant to your wife. Starlight Company is asking for her appointment and…the CEO is asking for your appointment."

Ean felt the need to change his contact number as his number was with a lot of people. It hadn't mattered before as he was working overseas.

Alvin crossed his legs having no idea what kind of company it was. So Ean had to fill up, "Starlight is a media company. They are in broadcasting news, production, investments, and entertainment agencies."

Ean paused looking at Alvin's face darkened before he could even complete it. "Right, Janet Collins Wilson is an artist under them."

Twenty-seven years ago, Janet was under the Matthews artist agency. Gianna had thrown her out so Janet joined the Starlight easily and rose to fame.

Alvin could easily guess why people wanted to meet him. But why were they planning to hound his wife? He hissed, "My wife is busy."

Ean rolled his eyes and stopped himself from sneering at Alvin, 'Oh yeah, shopping to seduce you.'

Why would a CEO want to meet Alvin?

Was Janet planning to use Alvin and convince him to attend the press conference?

Janet was just an artist under the agency. Why would a CEO bother about her? Were they planning something?

Ean muttered while wondering about the same, "Will they use your marriage or Zane's birth against you?" After all, the Wilson family knew Alvin got married recently. And there are many sources to prove Anya was a single mother all these years.

Secrets are like ticking time bombs. Janet's secret was going to explode. Will Alvin and Anya be able to protect Zane?
