His Devious Rule-Chapter 318 It’s Alvin

Alvin furrowed when Anya ran towards the fire the security guards had lit to keep themselves warm. Sensing she was about to throw the certificates into the fire, he was alarmed and tugged her away.

"Are you out of your mind?" He growled at her.

He couldn't believe she was burning their marriage certificate right after their marriage. That was the most bizarre thing he could ever imagine.

Anya snapped back at him, "Yes, I am." She tried to pass through him but Alvin caught her and tried to take the certificates away. "Little Donut…"

"Alvin… you will deceive me again… Ahh... Alvin."

The security guards: "…"

They watched the man trying to get the certificates and the lady was nimble with her moves, without losing to the man.

"Let me go… Alvin…" Anya passed the certificates hand to hand when he relentlessly tried to take the certificates away from her.

Annoyed, "Why would you burn it?" Alvin asked through his teeth, trying his best, not to hurt her.

"Ahh…" Anya squeaked, almost losing the certificate from her hand. "Because I am scared." She squatted down and hugged her knees, keeping the certificates out of his reach.

Alvin and the security guards: "..."

Alvin breathed out through his mouth looking at the white curled ball on the ground. She couldn't be so reasonable without a reason. So he tried to hold his last straw of patience and kneeled in front of her.

"Little Donut…" He cupped her face and made her look at him. She didn't look frightened, but grumpy and flushed due to the cold. Anyway, he asked, "Why are you scared?" He was unbelievably calm.

Anya pouted. First, she gave him an example, "Once a cheater is always a cheater." And repeated, "You will deceive me again."

She trusted him. However, she still feared he might trick her to take her signature. Not because he might want to leave her, but there could be any random circumstances.

Alvin pursed his lips watching her. She wasn't playing around but deadly serious. He agrees it was his mistake and he was the reason behind this situation.

She got angry at first, now it was time for her emotional roller coaster. At the least, he was glad she wasn't hiding it from him.

"I-" He paused from repeating he wouldn't do it. He focused on saving their marriage certificates, "Why would you burn the certificate for it?"

A security guard responded laughing at their interaction, "Young man, you can't get a divorce without marriage certificates." Others laughed, finding them hilarious.

They always saw divorced couples fighting, bantering, and cursing each other. The first time, they were seeing something like this.

Alvin's expression changed. He didn't know about it. He looked at Anya who hummed, nodding her head, "Even if you deceive me, you can't pass the divorce application without my knowledge."

If she keeps the certificates somewhere he could find them. If she burned it, he wouldn't have a chance to fool her.

Inarticulate, Alvin opened his mouth and closed it. Although he found her actions extreme, she was destroying the important articles that were needed to separate them. She was closing all the doors, leaving just a door open to a room where they will have to live together.

In other words, she was ready to forfeit her life for him. She could have said those words sweetly, couldn't she? Yet, he found her adorable.

Gazing at her fondly, he brushed her hair away from her face. He asked curiously, "What if I cheat on you?" She would want to leave him.

If Anya didn't have that much trust in him, she wouldn't have registered their marriage. She scoffed, continuing to guard the certificates, "I will break that thing."

Alvin held back himself from asking her to stop meeting Krystle who taught her words to his Sweet Little Donut. Fortunately, he didn't ask that.

Rather, he asked, "What if you cheat on me?" It wasn't like he was going to let her go.

Anya softly shrugged, "You break his thing." If she could have liked somebody other than him, five years was a lot.

'Pfft.' The security guards failed to hold back and burst into laughter finding her funny and cute.

Alvin chuckled at her words. He pecked on her lips. "Goofball." He indulgently said.

Anya narrowed her eyes at him. Why was he being so sweet? His lovely kiss, his gentle touch on her face, and his affectionate gaze were addictive. "Your kiss won't work today." She wasn't going to give him the certificates.

He almost had the urge to burn their certificates together but held himself back. Shaking his head, he scooped her into his arms and went towards their car. He started coaxing her to keep the certificates.

If she couldn't be at ease with certificates at his reach, he found a solution without any tricks, "How about I get you a vault in the bank you choose? Go and lock the certificate there. Nobody could take it but you."

Anya wrapped her arms around his neck and started considering the possibilities.

Alvin continued to indulge his wife, forgetting the storm he had brewed was uproaring the city. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

Meanwhile at Matthews Industries,

The last day of the week was going smoothly. Casper Matthews looked at the weekly report of the market. They were doing pretty well. Signing the report, he kept it away and picked another file.

The work went extremely satisfactorily for two weeks. Casper had feared Anya hacking into the company network and plundering. Nothing as such happened, so Casper tried to relax.

But Alvin's silence was also bugging his mind for the two weeks. He had looked into everything countless times, taking measurements on reinforcements of the network. But the peace of mind wasn't approaching him.

How could such a powerful couple be silent drastically?

Without his awareness, his mind was always occupied with Anya and Alvin.

Suddenly his mobile, landline and intercom started ringing one after the other. Before he could grasp it, his office room door burst open.

Shocked Benjamin Matthews entered hurriedly, almost running up to Casper. Harrison followed him, looking pale and confused.

Casper unawarely clenched his fist. He had imagined this scene for over two weeks. He couldn't believe it was happening. He braced himself to hear the bad news.

"Brother Casper…" Benjamin placed a set of papers on the table while Harrison turned on the news channels on the television.

"Skylark has become the third largest shareholder of the Matthews industries, They bought 50 billion worth of shares." Benjamin was in utter bewilderment and disbelief.

He was considering skipping the inauguration of the Skylark as nobody was showing interest in going. He couldn't believe Skylark wasn't any small new fry. They were like a mammoth and acquired the market in a storm.

Casper rose from his chair, looking like he was hit by lightning. The development could make him lose the company from his power.

[Breaking News: Skylark reportedly entered the top three in the shareholder list of Matthews Industries.

Is this the new era for Matthews' empire?

Who is the mysterious founder of Skylark?

Is he challenging the infamous tycoon Casper Matthews?

Will he end the rule of the family?

Stay tuned to know more about it.]

Casper stood there blankly as the report in his hand fell on the table. "It's Alvin." He mumbled to himself.

Benjamin and Harrison barely heard his words, "Brother Casper, did you say something?"

Casper grabbed the ringing telephone and smashed it on the floor, "That Bastard." He growled.f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎
