His Devious Rule

Anya stood up, looking down at Gianna who glared at her hatefully. "Gianna Sallow, I was a good girl. Trust me when I say, I was too virtuous."

She never wished for something that was out of her capability, she always worked hard to get what she deserved. She neither got envious nor coveted things belonging to others. She didn't even dream of being with Alvin because he was the bright star out of her reach.

Even after all the unfortunate events, she was ready to get away from everything to live peacefully. She was ready to sacrifice her happiness, to keep Alvin safe. She prioritized her baby and considered his happiness over hers.

Even when she was troubled by Gianna, Anya was righteous and had her principles. She only wanted to protect her son and the thought of retaliating or troubling anybody never crossed her mind.

But… "You choked her." Her growth was important but Anya admired her previous self. She just grew strong over years but Gianna had compelled her to be evil to fight the evil.

Ridiculous, right?

"Didn't you want to snatch home from my son?" Anya asked.

Gianna slowly realized where this was coming from. Although she used to get happy seeing Anya struggling to find a house and move in, Gianna had failed to know about the company Anya was working at. She had wished to see Anya begging on the streets to feed her baby.

Her plan wasn't that simple. Gianna wanted Alvin to settle with some girl, and have his family. Then Gianna would have brought Anya and her baby in front of Alvin. She didn't want Alvin to ever be happy in his life.

Unfortunately, all her efforts were in vain. She recently got to know Anya was an official and she was with Alvin.

Anya uttered a word for word when she questioned, "How would you feel if I brought your son on the road?" Like how she loved her baby, Gianna loved her son too much.

How could a mother see her son become homeless?

Gianna was enraged as soon as she heard Anya, "How dare you!?" She growled, ignoring the pain in her throat. She couldn't even bring herself to imagine that way. She patted her chest speaking of Liam, "My son is an heir of the Matthews family," Her face contorted to disgust "Unlike your beggar family, a bastard son and husband."

'Pak,' Gianna looked nothing but a criminal to Anya's eyes. Before she could think, her body reacted to the screams and insults thrown at the very important people in her life.

When Anya got to know Alvin was illegitimate, she had thought of Gianna who had to be with a cheater husband. At some point, she wanted to understand the pain Gianna was in. However, Gianna's anger should be at her husband and Janet rather than Alvin who was innocent. Her heart had turned so dark that she wasn't leaving Alvin's son either.

Gianna fell to the floor after the impact. The strong imprints of fingers appeared on her cheek as tears rolled down her cheeks due to bursting pain from her cheek. Her mind was completely blank when a sharp sound was buzzing in her ears.

If Gianna couldn't see her grown-up son on the streets, how could she even think of making her baby suffer in the cold?

"Gianna Sallow, were you thinking I will pretend like a delicate lady?" Anya snickered, "I am trained tame people like you." She was considerably merciful compared to how she tortured the criminals or Flora.

Gianna said through her teeth holding her cheek, "You will regret this."

However, Anya smiled a beautiful one. A smile speaking of danger, warning Gianna of her future. She stood up, grabbed Gianna's arm, and in contrast to the elegant smile on her face, her grip was strong.

Gianna grimaced but couldn't fight back when Anya pushed her to sit on the chair. Anya's fingers tidied Gianna's hair ignoring her protest as she softly asked like speaking with a baby, "Gianna Sallow, you couldn't digest Alvin's happiness, right?"

A cold ran down her spine. Gianna uneasily shifted in her chair cautiously looking at Anya.

"I will make sure he is content, so delighted that it should make everyone jealous." Alvin didn't deserve whatever his mother, father, and stepmother did to him. Even though it was going to be a big battle, she wished them to live happy life.

Anya's words were enough to put Gianna in a foul mood. Gianna's hatred of Alvin wasn't just because Casper cheated on her, but also because Alvin's name was legitimized by giving her name as mother and Alvin had the right over the Matthews's wealth.

"Alvin never thought of taking anything from Matthews. Now I think… Why should he let go of his right?"

Gianna shot up to her feet and growled at Anya. She grabbed Anya's sweater collar and seethed, "I won't let that happen." Casper was disappointed in Liam so Casper would gladly bring the bastard and put him on the chair.

Gianna shook Anya as she stressed her words, "Do you hear me? I won't let that happen." She screamed.

Anya was too cool even when Gianna manhandled her. She removed Gianna's hold from her top and made her sit. "Mom-in-law, relax. I have decided no more violence."

Gianna's eyes widened in disbelief realizing Anya was going to enter the Matthews family. "W-who is your Mom-in-law?" Panicked, she tried to push Anya away, "Get away from me."

However, Anya rubbed Gianna's head. Her voice lowered when she warned her, "If you dare threaten my son or Alvin's life, I will take your life before that."

Stepping away, Anya looked around the office, "You have worked for more than half of your life here. Don't you? Mom. In. Law?" She ended sarcastically. She was also disgusted to call Gianna mother-in-law but it was entertaining to watch Gianna panicking.

Gianna didn't have a good feeling about this. First Anya said Alvin would live happily, then she mentioned about entering the Matthews family despite all the efforts to ruin his happiness and throw him out of the family. Now her position?

Anya took the crystal table nameplate which had Gianna's name followed by 'Dean of Imperial University.' Placing it back on the desk, she turned it to Gianna's side, "Have a good look at this. It is going to change soon." She flashed a cold smile.

If one's hard life is another person's happiness, then there is no bigger fool than that person. Anya pitied Gianna for making her life goal to make Alvin's life harder.

Gianna had succeeded till now. Anya will see if Gianna could win against her to take happiness away from Alvin's life.

"Wh-what do you mean?" Gianna screamed hysterically looking at Anya's back.

Anya paused and flashed a sweet smile, "I mean, I will return your favor with my kindness." The kindness Gianna wouldn't be able to forget. She left the office.

'Return the favor?' Gianna wanted to do something to stop Anya but was trapped like a prisoner, she didn't know what to do. She didn't have a mobile or anybody who could lend a hand to stop Anya.

"I should do something, I should do something…" She yammered to herself.

"Casper…" Gianna said under her breath. Her eyes glinted sharply, "Casper… Only he could stop Anya Owen." She started pacing in the room while thinking about how to manipulate Casper and provoke him against Anya and Alvin.
