His Devious Rule



In Narnia,

Paxton grimaced when Anya's phone wasn't reachable. He turned to Jason to report him about the same, but paused looking at Jason who was narrowing down a location that wasn't even in country E.

"Err…" Paxton didn't know who Jason was looking into.

Jason breathed a loud sigh. He would have freaked out if he didn't know Anya well enough. He pointed at Anya's system displaying an ID.

Paxton's lips were twitching looking at the GPS tracking ID. He said with a hint of disbelief, "Why is Officer Owen in the mood to play with us?" He almost got a heart attack there.

Jason knew the reason. Because he gave her a shock and forced her to trust the man she had met once. It was a matter of her life. Nevertheless, he also knew she didn't use Dot to his full capability and avoided giving her life in another's hand.

He wasn't disappointed in her because nobody would dare to trust anybody. He indeed wanted to give a hand to Anya in her mission, at the same time he wanted Dot to understand the depth of the missions and risks in the missions. 

Anya's spontaneous decision-making and quick changes in the plans were needed the most for Dot to study. 

Paxton, who calmed down, began deducing the reasons behind the change in plans. Since there was an explosion, he easily concluded, "Miles Johnson was the target." Because he was caught and he could leak information about the organization. 

He suddenly realized, "Does that mean Miles Johnson and his secretary are dead?" He voiced his thoughts as the news channel was only mentioning the secretary and pilots.

Jason shrugged. He didn't care. He went to his office to evaluate more members he had shortlisted for Team Ace.

In country E,

With the new worry, Alvin rushed out of the bedroom. Rob hadn't returned. Instead of making calls, he pulled out his laptop and began working on it.

He checked the air control website and matched the longitude and latitude of Anya's GPS tracker.

He breathed a sigh when he saw it was a commercial flight to the nearest island. He wanted to bonk Anya for making him go through a roller coaster of emotions but he felt like a fool.

She had clearly told him to just keep an eye on her location. Unless those three trackers separate, she won't be in danger. 

Rob rushed inside with Jackson in tow. In a panic, he had forgotten Alvin had Anya's GPS tracker. When he stood in front of Alvin, there was embarrassment on his face and also a hint of relief seeing Alvin cool and the tablet lying next to him.

Alvin was rather amused looking at Rob who always stays level-headed all the time but lost his mind as soon he got the news. He wasn't mad. Instead, happy to know Rob prioritized who was important to him (Alvin.)

He looked at Jackson whose eyes widened meeting his gaze. A part of him didn't want to ask, anyway, "What do you know about my wife's plan to return to Narnia?" His apathetic voice sounded.

Jackson looked at the man who was gorgeous in a night suit too. He wanted to ignore Alvin and his question but he wasn't ungrateful when he knew they were keeping him safe. 

He first briefed the plan to use Miles Johnson's private plan. "After working on the laptop, Officer Owen suddenly changed the plan. I'm sent here. The man who was with Officer Owen is flying back to Narnia on the direct flight. Officer Owen refused to take me with her because I didn't have the visa where she was going."

They understood that Anya discerned the possible attack. Alvin questioned next, "What about Miles Johnson?" If he wasn't dead, Anya will be in trouble.

Jackson shrugged his hands, "Officer Owen asked her colleague to get Miles Johnson to a location she sends." He mused, recalling whatever Anya said about Miles, "Either he will be dead or on the way to Narnia." He had no idea about the explosion yet.

Thus nobody had an idea about Miles Johnson.

…

In the morning, 

Jackson enjoyed his first ride on a helicopter and got on the ship. He wanted to speak with his parents but for security purposes, Alvin's men didn't allow him.

Alvin and Rob headed back to Narnia. Alvin was calm because Anya was on a commercial flight to Narnia with an hour's delay.

In Narnia,

Dot safely reached in the night and went to rest as per Jason's order.

Alvin reached at dawn but he stayed at the airport to pick up his wife. 

As soon as Anya alighted the international flight, the airport security escorted her to avoid the long waiting line at the immigration process as she was using a fake foreign passport.

Alvin watched his wife's aloof pale face without a hint of expression. Compared to the previous disguise, he liked her cute appearance except for her brown lenses.

He watched her face glow as soon as her eyes landed on him. Her steps slowed down as her shoulders relaxed. She said something to the security and they dispersed excluding one.

Alvin then noticed Anya wasn't cold but pale due to weakness. He went towards her seeing her struggling to keep her eyes open.

He involuntarily removed his over jacket and flung it around as secured on her shoulders. "Little…"

Anya's weak voice barely reached his ears, "I'm dizzy…" And she voluntarily leaned on him.

Alvin quickly supported her body. He realized she was putting the front to leave the airport. Her condition didn't look different from the day of the court session when she hadn't slept. 

There was concern on his face but he snapped at her. "Didn't you sleep on the flight?"

Anya pointed at her eye, indicating she couldn't sleep with lenses on and she couldn't remove the lenses on the flight to avoid any unforeseen problem.

Alvin took a few seconds to understand her cue. He scooped her and strode to the restroom, controlling himself from chiding her. He entered the men's restroom.

The security and Rob: "..."

He washed his hands ignoring the men around. After sanitizing, he removed her lenses and saw her breathing a sigh and leaning in his arms.

"Did you eat?" He grimly questioned.

He didn't get the response. He panicked without knowing if she dozed off or fainted. Quickly scooping to his arms, he strode out.

The security escorted them through a secret exit. Rob didn't stop until Doctor Benson woke up from sleep and answered the call.

They rushed to the Oasis mansion. Alvin had a big scowl when Benson said Anya was sleep and food deprived. 

Zane had missed his mother. So he stayed in his parent's bedroom after learning she was exhausted. He often cuddled her and took naps waiting for her to wake up. 

After signing some important documents, Alvin entered the bedroom in the afternoon to see Zane reading a comic, lying next to Anya on the bed.

Zane crawled away from Anya and ran over to Alvin. He signaled Alvin to kneel to speak in a low voice but the man carried him to the walk-in closet and made him sit on the island counter.

"Chipmunk Monster, Chairman Matthews came to the school yesterday. Little Linus didn't let him meet me." He reported to Alvin first.

Then he pursed his lips recalling Casper. Casper who used to look much younger than his age, suddenly looked sick and old. He asked his father as Linus refused to speak about Casper, "Is Chairman Matthews Unwell?"

Alvin was aware of the event. He glanced at the little man hearing a hint of worry. His son's compassion was undoubtedly Anya's trait. He looked away and focused on changing his clothes.

Alvin ignored the uproar he caused in the business Industries and Casper's every effort to reach him. He carried his son to the bed. Both rested next to Anya.
