His Devious Rule

Chapter 463 Last Chance

At Nest regency,

Zane breathed in relief when his eyes fell on Alvin. To his eyes, his mother was strong but his father was much stronger. He didn't fear Alvin getting hurt but he couldn't bear to think of Anya getting hurt. Hence he had reached out to Alvin while rushing upstairs to grab the baton.

Well, he taunted Alvin while looking at his parents staring at each other, "Chipmunk Monster, aren't you too late?" He expected to see Alvin protecting his Mommy.

Alvin glanced at Zane. Just two minutes earlier, he had heard Zane crying out that bad people were there to hurt them. It oddly eased his heart hearing verve in Zane's voice.

He was glad they were unharmed but his sharp eyes settled back at Anya. She could have rushed inside the villa with Zane and stayed safe. She could have dialed his number or the cops without putting herself in danger.

She picked none of the easy options. She chose to face the problem instead of running away or seeking help. Well, that's Anya Owen.

Instead of changing his wife, he accepted that she would deal with the trouble and that he should make sure she would be fit and healthy.

Seeing her wait for his reaction, he proceeded closer and pulled her pink cheeks. "The security of the regency is pathetic." He hissed in annoyance.

Honestly, he liked living in the villa with them. So he was irked with the regency security that allowed those men inside.

Tugging her into his arms, he pondered about the issue. If they were going to stay in the villa, he decided to take over the security company of the regency.

Anya was relieved to hear his dissatisfaction with the security agency instead of ordering her to shift to the Oasis mansion.

-n0ve1、com Alvin had left in a hurry so she easily guessed Zane reached out to Alvin. Propping her head, she mused, "Your minion is serving you." She wouldn't have bothered him about the attack until he returned.

Alvin held back from scolding her. Thanks to his little enemy, he learned about the situation. Looks like he will have to depend on his little enemy to relay him in such a situation.

He turned around and glanced at Steve Hanks. The dean was Anthony Hughs, Casper didn't seem to have any intention to change the CEO since Liam played into Casper's game. So why would Steve Hanks plan to hurt Anya?

Anya followed his line of sight and poked his waist. "Why don't you take care of the trouble at your company's end? I will handle these."

Anya will choose a legal way. And Alvin won't be satisfied with that. He wanted those men to suffer. Hence he ignored her suggestion and glanced at Rob.

Rob understood Alvin's unsaid orders, "I will deal with them." He will create hell for Hanks and find out the instigator and motive of the attack.

Anya: "..."

Weren't they going to take legal action?

Before she could argue with them, Zane unlocked the door, "Momma…" He grabbed her attention and ran over to her.

Worried Anya was about to hug the little man, Zane mimicked her kick, "You were so cool, Momma. I want to learn football."

Alvin and Anya: "..."

At Matthews Industries,

The countdown had started for the shareholders' meeting.

The media at the entrance were eager to grasp any breaking news. They incessantly interviewed the shareholders who were arriving. But nobody spilled the beans. Instead, they increased the curiosity of the people through their ambiguous responses.

The secretaries were busy attending to the shareholders and guiding them to the conference room. The last-minute double checks were almost done but the two important men weren't mentally prepared to start the meeting – Liam Matthews, and Casper Matthews.

Liam wanted to stop Alvin from attacking the company and hurting innocent people. And Alvin clearly mentioned that he would do nothing if Casper stepped down from his power.

More than his father being in power, Liam cared about the livelihood of the people who were working at the company. A part of him wanted to stop Casper from hurting Alvin or his company.

Hence Liam had approached Alvin to help him take over the company as Alvin wasn't the least bit interested in the Matthews Industries. He was hoping Alvin would handle the shareholders' meeting but looked at the message from Rob.

[Boss is busy. We won't be able to attend the meeting.]

Liam went blank for a long time. He could guess something serious must have cropped up for Alvin to change his plans. He can understand Alvin's decision but who was going to handle the developments in the meeting?

Who was going to strip Casper from his powers?

Liam wasn't confident enough. At the same time, he wasn't ready to see Casper be in power and provoke Alvin. He couldn't let them fight and see the innocent people suffer.

This might be his last chance to protect. What was he going to do?

….

Casper was well prepared to deal with all the shareholders but Alvin was the game changer. Even when Casper didn't know what Alvin was planning, he was certain Alvin could turn the situation around if he arrived at the meeting.

Truth be told, he was jelly in his office room without knowing where Alvin was headed after leaving the villa. Will Alvin focus on his troubles at Skylark? Or will he rush to Anya who was in trouble? Or Will he ignore everything to attend the shareholders' meeting?

If Casper was in Alvin's shoes, he would have undoubtedly focused on his company and asked others to deal with his other problems.

Nonetheless, Alvin was different. Hence he was pretty certain that Alvin would take care of Anya even if she was capable of handling everything alone.

Casper planned everything, taking Alvin's weakness to his advantage. Hence he waited to hear from his secretary that Alvin was tending to Anya and focused on Skylark.

What if Alvin barges into the meeting after some time? Casper wasn't confident anymore.
