His Devious Rule



The two couples and the little man shopped for the new year. They also hired an event management team due to Alvin's pestering. The team will be arranging a kids' play area for their party and varieties of food that would please kids' stomachs and eyes.

Alvin had to appease his wife who was pouting after she got to know he paid five times the normal price for hiring the team. Anya gave in because Zane was more excited than ever.

…

On the other end, Casper wasted the whole night and another day in the hospital. There were numerous theories about his health and how Matthews will be divided after him. It was leading to a sharp drop in stock prices, the company was losing money. 

He only has two options. He has to keep his act up and write everything to Liam. Or giving up his show to save the company from the rumors and go to prison.

Who likes to go to prison?

He certainly didn't want to retire from business by going behind the bars. If he has to keep up his act, he could only save the company by writing down everything to Liam and announcing him as the heir of the Matthews Conglomerate.

Since He believed Liam will continue to treat him with respect, unlike how children ignore their parents once they write off everything. 

So does it matter if Liam holds the name on the legal papers?

After a few months, he could make his return in all glory. Couldn't he? 

Thus he contacted his lawyers through the doctor's mobile on new year's eve and ordered him, "Prepare the legal documents…" He added many instructions to be added in his will. 

Doctor Stweart asked in curiosity when he took his mobile back, "Chairman Matthews, are you retiring so soon? You could run the business for another decade at least."

Retirement? Casper snickered. He hadn't thought of it, 

He wasn't transferring everything to Liam. It was a will - a legal document with instructions as to what should be done with his money and properties after his death. 

When he wasn't going to die, how could Liam get anything? Liam will be just running the company under his watch.

If Liam fails him during his period of the patient act, Casper could always change his will. The current will wasn't going to be his last will.

Alvin will win on the surface, achieving his motive to remove him from the company, Whereas Casper will take back everything, including the happiness of Alvin Matthews and Anya Owen.

–––––––––

In country X at Johnson companies,

Miles Johnson laughed cynically hearing his assistant brief about the situation of the Matthews family. Casper was acting in the hospital having no idea that Anya had caught the doctors and the doctors were playing on her terms.

Anya was the amusing thing he found in the whole situation. She was so predictable as an officer, at the same time she didn't follow her principle but took pleasure in helping her husband gain upper hand against Casper.

He wanted precisely that kind of woman in his life or Anya herself. She was smart and aware of rules and laws, She should go to any length for him. Even if she has to kill her principles.

His secretary continued to report when Miles's laughter lowered, "The cop is suspended for impulsively closing the case without proper investigation." His clear, crisp voice sounded.

Right, the gas explosion at Alvin's archaeological site wasn't just as complicated as Anya deduced and solved. 

Casper and the Arrow Trucking company weren't just the offenders. Miles Johnson had a hand in blowing up the things in country A.

Casper just wanted to cause trouble for Alvin by freaking out his staff. He had no plan to kill anyone. 

Miles used the situation when he got the clue about it. He quickly learned about the location of the archaeological site. 

It was one of the safest places by locality and guarded by well-trained men. There was no way to cause trouble even if one brought fifty people. More importantly, it was a restricted area as soon the area was identified as a heritage site.

Thus Miles did some quick research about Global oil and gas which was close to the site and the way they transport the inflammable gas. 

As soon as he learned that trucks were taking the restricted path, he twisted Casper's plan by calling those shooters and instructing them as Casper's assistant assuring them triple the payment.

The plan was smooth and successful.

When the Arrow trucking company paid the investigation officer to close the case, Miles doubled payment to stop the cops from destroying any evidence in the accident area. 

Then Anya got the evidence, dug out the shooters, and caught Casper. So predictable. However, Miles hadn't expected Anya to help her husband instead of dragging Casper by his collar.

He was intrigued by the woman. However, he wasn't doing any of it to get Anya and to pay back Alvin for threatening him. He was keeping Anya busy with the family drama.

He signaled his secretary to leave the office. The laughter on his face turned grave when dialed Dane Tiller, the professor at the Imperial University. His partner in crime.

He asked directly when the call was answered, "How are things?" They need to act while Anya Owen is busy. Then they can wait a year or two for Anya to fail her mission. Or they could come up with different plans and continue trafficking the talented students.

Dane Tiller on the other end sounded annoyed at the pressure, [Don't rush things here. It will raise suspicion.] The other end of the call seemed to be having a different opinion than Miles. Initially, Dane Tiller was cautious of Anya. Now that there is a new dean, Dane ignored Anya but Miles was cautious of Anya.

Miles furrowed at the tone of the man. They weren't contacting the students as they used. They weren't going to offer high-paying jobs or convince the students to study abroad. 

They changed the plan so that Anya won't catch them. Each day was critical for them. They have already wasted two days in Miles's opinion. So he snapped at Dane, "We don't have time."

[F**k.] Dane Tiller cursed on the other end and said in frustration due to his restless days, [Sitting there and talking is easy.] He has to be careful of every step and erase any evidence that could lead to him.

'Easy?' Miles wasn't the mastermind of the crime. He was answerable to others who are very dangerous. He sneered at the audacity of the man, "You don't get anything for free, Dane Tiller. Many people will work for money." Anya Owen could be a smart choice for that job. Getting her to that work will be tricky and dangerous.

The line was silent for a few seconds before the man sighed and asked, [I need a week to send these five students.] They selected five students from Imperial University and other colleges which were affiliated with Imperial University. 

Miles grunted in affirmation and ended the call. He threw the spare mobile into the dustbin while thinking about keeping Anya Owen occupied with her personal life. 

He can't touch Zane With Alvin around. So the loose links were Casper, Liam, or... Liam's daughter. Miles's lips sinisterly curled up planning against Liam's daughter.
