His Devious Rule

Well, Janet doesn\'t understand that. She weighs the relationship of a husband and wife on benefits.

Nevertheless, Alvin suddenly got curious about how Anya would react if he said that he was going to leave everything behind and live off her.

Rob\'s lips were twitching uncontrollably looking at Alvin lost in thought. Although there wasn\'t much change in Alvin\'s expression, Rob could guess he was thinking of Anya when his cognac eyes sparkled.

He blurted out, "Boss, you can\'t do that." He didn\'t mind the work, they will have to run behind Alvin who could care less about everything for Anya.

Alvin merely glanced at Rob knowing what was in Rob\'s mind. He doesn\'t have to prove to anybody that his wife wouldn\'t leave him and he would prioritize his son over his company

Anyway, he stood up lazily as he coldly instructed Rob, "Inform the lawyer to mention Gianna Sallow as a stepmother."

Was Casper thinking Alvin will give in to Janet?

Casper was going to regret taking the wrong step. He didn\'t care to get the tag of ungrateful and unfilial.

The country was doubting how a grandmother could kidnap her grandson. If the news of Gianna leaks as the stepmother of Alvin, then everybody will understand Gianna didn\'t want her stepson\'s son to become the heir.

Rob fished his mobile out to call the lawyer as the court session would start soon.

Janet\'s eyes widened. If Casper gets to know about Alvin\'s plan, her whole career... Janet had to crane her neck to look at Alvin when he stood in front of him. She wanted to beg him to stop everything but the words stuck in her throat looking at the sly smirk on his face.

"Mrs. Wilson," He mused in his deep voice that gave creeps to Janet. "I won\'t let Casper release any news about you." In fact, Casper would go crazy to stop the news.

Janet doubted her ears. Even Bernard and Rob looked at each other. Did Alvin mean to say he would only reveal about being illegitimate?

Nevertheless, Janet and Bernard held their breath. Alvin wasn\'t going to let her off after hearing her so much.

Whereas Rob knew Alvin was merciful to Janet for so long because of the Collins family who treated him well. However, Alvin wasn\'t soft-hearted to be silent after hearing Janet\'s nonsense.

Alvin added, "I won\'t release it either." If he or Casper did it, it would be like a quick death to Janet.

Was there any fun? No.

"Let the paparazzi, news reporters, and netizens dig your dirt." It will be a slow death for Janet who will panic every day without knowing how to stop them.

Janet\'s legs gave away and slumped on the floor. Being in the entertainment industry, she clearly knew how media could bring fame to a person overnight and ruin it in mere hours.

Alvin was giving her no way out. She can\'t bury the news, she can\'t stay silent. Even her silence will be her end.

Alvin walked away, waving his hand at the maids to throw her out of the mansion. His cold voice rang in the pin-drop silence, "Forbade her."

If they release the news, Gianna would play the victim and get sympathized. He wasn\'t going to give her the chance to survive the ordeal.

Janet cried behind Alvin, "Alvin Matthews, you are devious."

The only way left for her was to confess to the media that Alvin was her son and she abandoned him in the Matthews family. She will have to walk out of the industry on her own.

What if Casper releases a statement as she seduced him?

She will either have to state that she slept with Casper willingly and get cursed by the whole country or reveal the truth that they were drunk when Casper was using her for land acquisition.

Alvin was killing two birds with a stone. She never thought Alvin could be craftier than his father.

Bernard just knew the Collins family will have to prepare to face the truth. He didn\'t have any complaints about that. With the help of maids, he took wailing Janet to the car and left the Oasis estate.

Rob always commended Alvin for being so spontaneous and also cunning. In his view, Janet brought this up on herself because Alvin never had plans to connect with Janet or reveal their truth.

Krystle who ran out looked around to see Rob leaving at the main door and nobody around. "What happened?" She asked the maids who entered the mansion.

Linus breathed a sigh thinking Krystle wasn\'t going to kill anybody.

The maids glanced at Linus and lowered their eyes. Linus was like a second master to the house and Krystle was Madam\'s best friend so they revealed. "Ms. Lewis, Mrs. Wilson left crying. Master forbade her from entering here."

Although Krystle felt a bit bad for Janet, she was satisfied to know the result. She was also happy that Alvin didn\'t bring Anya and ruin her mood right after their intimate night.

Linus remarked after sending the maids away, "Sister-in-law doesn\'t need you to protect her, you know." Anya was physically, mentally, and emotionally strong. She was much more level-headed and smart than his Hot-headed.

Krystle shrugged and climbed the stairs. Being strong enough doesn\'t mean they shouldn\'t be protected. She was just tired of hearing people judge Anya for being a single mother.

....

At the Matthews mansion,

There were just a few hours left for the first court session. This session was important for bailing out Gianna.

Although Casper threatened Janet, he didn\'t have much expectation. He used it to distract Alvin\'s attention. He wondered how long Janet could keep Alvin\'s attention away from the company and the case.

"What is the plan?" Casper grunted his question in the study room.

The group of lawyers in suits stood silently while the chief, an aged man, stepped forward. "The gravity of the case is low since Zane Owen wasn\'t kidnapped." Hence the crime was a bailable offense.

"We will be proving that the complaint has been filed with a motive to harass and defame Madam Matthews."

He paused and submitted the file which had some details of the people, "We have witnesses to prove Anya Owen visiting the university and Sallow family, Alvin Matthews angrily storming in the hotel to meet Madam Matthews."

Hence they were confident that they could get Gianna out of the prison.

Casper continued to hear the further plan and counter plans for the first session.
