His Devious Rule



Anya went to the floor designed for the interrogation and prisoning of the criminals before presenting them in front of the justice.

She deactivated the jammers before entering the room. One man packed in layers of clothes on his body and topped with a leather jacket. He looked bulky but Anya knew those were just clothes. 

The tall man was looking at her in horror, forgetting to breathe. They just realized that she hadn't resigned from the job. Her head tilted when she noticed the shaky hands of the leather jacket man.

She will see which of them will have the nerve to take their mobile. She sat in front of them and watched them.

The cold beads were forming on their forehead. The growing fear was evident in their eyes. As if she would attack them any second, both were holding their breath, ready to escape her strikes. 

When these two men were stalking her, apart from Miles Johnson, she thought of various possibilities. After all, Casper wasn't eliminated yet. If he was able to sustain so long, he could multitask too. Couldn't he?

Nevertheless, looking at the reaction of the two men, Anya was pretty sure if not Miles Johnson, the person behind the scam was keeping an eye on her. She will be unburdened if those men were hired by the agent who works in Narnia.

Anya didn't spare a word to the two men. Her eyes zeroed in on the leather jacket man who was gathering the courage to speak or attack or maybe just make the call. She extended her hand. 

The two men looked at each other and turned back to meet the steely gray eyes glinting sharply. Their breathing twitched and swallowed hard unable to look away from her.

They were kidnapped in broad daylight, on a road filled with people. They didn't know where they were but were very well aware Anya would slit their throat if they tried to be over-smart.

They were only hired to stalk her. They weren't getting paid enough to risk their lives. So they placed their mobiles on the table and stepped far away from her.

Anya was amused. If they were well-behaved, it was good for both parties. So she picked up a mobile, unlocked it by face recognition of the tall person, and brushed through it. 

Then she inspected another mobile. They were sending messages using an internet platform with a fake email ID. She pitied the humans. 

The phone number is indeed an easier way to identify if the number was national or international. However, she can more easily hack the internet platform than the mobile which uses a particular number.

She learned the pattern of messages. It had been an hour since they sent messages about her. So she typed a message. [She picked up her son and headed towards the West.] She purposefully didn't mention Jia.

Wasting no breath on the men, she left them in the room and went upstairs to her new desk. The office was empty as everyone was busy with their mission. So she got to work.

…

Zane had to blackmail Jia to stop playing and enter the building when it started snowing. They were running around on all the floors of the new building, lost in their world when somebody suddenly scooped the two little ones into his arms and mused, "I caught the little thieves."

Instead of being scared, Jia giggled and hugged Paxton while Zane greeted like an adult, "Uncle Paxton," and left Paxton speechless. 

Paxton expected them to squeak in fear. Shaking his head in resignation, he took them to the office.

He paused at the door and let the kids down looking at the five screens. Senon, Melvin, and Luna were frozen in the room.

"Mommy, Mommy…" Zane broke the silence in the hall and ran over to Anya.

Jia hugged Melvin's leg to greet him but paused looking at the screens. "Aunt Anya, is this a new drama or a movie?" She innocently asked.

Everyone snapped out. Anya scooped her son into her arms. Luna went to her desk and sipped water to calm herself. Melvin carried Jia while Senon looked at Anya in admiration. 

Mindblown, "Skye, how did you use the complex tree model to run so smoothly!?" Senon exclaimed, looking at Miles Johnson and his secretary's digital devices being hacked across the countries and ocean.

Anya was glad she messaged first then hacked. Miles Johnson, who had aborted all the plans, resumed immediately.

Zane flashed a lovely smile at his mother who was being praised for her work. Then turned back to the screen. He identified Miles from the video call. He discerned Miles tried to get Anya but he is a criminal. Jia Who had learned simple hand signals, accompanied Melvin and identified his actions.

Anya drew a block diagram on the whiteboard and wrote the methods she used. "Miles Johnson's private network resets every thirty minutes." Thus they will have to hack every thirty minutes to keep an eye on them.

Luna stood akimbo, suspiciously shaking her head, "Something's fishy." How efficient the network might be, reset causes delays in the work. They had never seen any company using such a method. "This couldn't be revenge. He is in on the scam." Luna was certain.

Senon popped his lollipop to his mouth and pulled the whiteboard from the upper row. He started writing codes and added some comments. 

The three officers smiled when Senon came up with an idea to re-loop the hacking session by uploading viruses to the devices to avoid them hacking into Miles's office again and again.

Senon grinned when he saw their reaction. He slid on the floor to reach his desk with a wide grin, "I'm on it."

Anya wore tiny earbuds to snoop on Miles's office. She was leaving with the kids when her mobile and her system started beeping, alerting everyone in the room.

Meanwhile, at Skylark,

Rob was preparing for the transfer of shares and a list of shareholders who were ready to sell their shares to the foreign investor.

He got a call from a string of numbers and heard, [Mr. Robertson, Benjamin Matthews has returned to the company.]

Rob immediately went to see Alvin and updated him, "Boss, Casper Matthews brought Benjamin Matthews back to the company." Alvin planned to get rid of everyone Casper trusts. Benjamin was one of them.

Alvin, who was wrapping for the day, paused at Rob's words. He leaned back on his leather chair and his lips arced slyly. 

Now Cordelia's attack on Ean through Benjamin was coming in handy. Cordelia might escape, and Benjamin will have to pay for her sins.

He mused, "Should a mother betray her son?"

Should they entice Cordelia to push the blame on Casper?
