His Devious Rule-Chapter 342 Keeping An Eye
Initially, Alvin and Anya planned to leave together with Zane. However, once the crowd hits the road, it would be a headache to control. As Alvin didn't want the media and paparazzi to publish and share pictures that could go out of the PR team's control.
Thus the trio with Rob and Mark left much earlier for the event. Due to emergency support required for Luna, Anya went to her new office from half away.
Anya instructed them to no more digital devices for Zane as he was with his iPad and video gaming half the day so Alvin brought Zane to the play area.
Standing in front of the kids' play area in the clubhouse, Zane shoved his hands in the pockets of his jacket and turned to Alvin. "Chipmunk Monster, it's for kids." He said sarcastically. The swing, slider, balls, climbers… He had left playing them a long time ago.
Alvin had heard the play area was for kids from 3-7 years. Wasn't little brat only five? "You are one."
Rob, who was behind them, pursed his lips. After playing him in the Coastal city, Rob knew Zane was just physically small.
Was he a kid? Then, "You are childish." He straight walked out of the hall to find something for himself.
Alvin controlled himself from smacking the little man. He wouldn't have followed Zane if there was no threat. Although Rob could have dealt with it, he couldn't help following him. He didn't know it was so hard to please a kid.
Zane pointed inside the squash court and asked, "Chipmunk Monster, teach me this."
Alvin looked at Zane's height and rolled his eyes, "Are you tall or the racket?"
Zane narrowed his eyes on his father. Chipmunk Monster is asking for a beating, isn't he?
He wasn't going to get taunted for his height, "Chipmunk Monster, did you forget you have a son? You should have arranged a racket for my age."
Although the little brat was taunting him back, Alvin hadn't thought something like that. Finding his son smarter, he decided to prepare everything in his size as he grows, he pushed the thought to the back of his mind to instruct the manager.
As for forgetting Zane, He passed by as he responded, "Rob, find a tree. Little Chipmunk is eager to do something." Chipmunks are excellent climbers and swimmers.
'Swimming?' Before the little one goes berserk, Alvin suggested, "Indoor pool." It had a heater.
Due to winter, Anya didn't teach him to swim so Zane was happy with the choice. But he still scoffed at Alvin for the previous remark, "Uncle Rob, make sure no one records when Chipmunk Monsters goes out in the woods."
Rob chuckled silently followed by the proud father and son. He had thought he would be teaching Zane but Alvin changed to swimming trunks and got into the warm water at shallow depth.
After some time, he felt a camera flash from the corridor. He turned to the door and heard faint footsteps. Glancing at busy Alvin, he quickly went out. Not many people were in this part of the area.
Finding no one in the lobby, Rob didn't choose to keep following, leaving Alvin and Zane. He glanced at the video surveillance camera and quickly called the security team. "Rick, find out who was at the swimming pool. Get him." Rick was the Skylark security manager.
He quickly rushed back to the pool area. He breathed seeing Alvin patiently instructing while holding the floating board in one hand and supporting Zane in another hand as Zane flapped his legs to get the movement.
Before Rob could completely relax, a man in a waiter uniform placed juice and snacks on the table coming from another entry.
Rob furrowed. Alvin and Zane were busy in the water, even if they ordered something from the kitchen, Zane would prefer something warm due to winter. And he also didn't ask for any service.
Why did the waiter bring all those?
Rob stopped himself from stopping the man by the voice which would catch Alvin and Zane's attention. He quickly followed the waiter and stopped him, 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om
"Why did they bring those here? Who asked you to do it?" Rob interrogated fiercely. There was a hint of confusion in his tone.
The waiter was taken aback by meeting Rob's oppressing gaze. He nervously responded, "We got a call to the kitchen. Sous chef sent me to serve." He didn't seem to lie but Rob wasn't in a state to ignore anything.
After back-to-back two suspicious actions, Rob discerned he won't be enough to protect the two. So he dialed Mark as he took the waiter inside. "Wait here." He ordered the water.
Rob closed the door of one entry and kept eye on another door. "Mark, get the whole team to the second indoor pool."
Alvin was used to the sentry whenever they shifted antiques but it might scare Zane, hence they had vacated half of the clubhouse. It was free of workers but it wasn't enough.
Ending the call, he dialed Rick again, "Rick, get one or two to monitor every movement in the East wing." He went aside as he lowered his voice to let Rick know the weight of the situation, "Somebody is keeping an eye on Boss and Little Master."
The party guests were yet to arrive, the problems had started. Rob knew how cautious they will have to be till they return to the Oasis or Nest.
Five minutes later, Mark arrived with ten members and put them at both the doors in a long queue as they patrolled the surrounding area.
"Find out who called the kitchen and ordered the snacks." Instructing Mark, Rob stood, every cell of him was alert. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺
Alvin had noticed the waiter and the security team so he guessed something was happening. Anyway, he focused on the little man who was asking him questions and learning quickly.
Staying in water is exhausting so stopped when Zane was breathing harder, yet he kept going. "That's enough for today."
Zane asked immediately, "Are we going back to Oasis?" There was an indoor pool and he could continue to learn to swim again. The Nest villa had an outdoor temperature pool but it will be snowing in the coming days.
Alvin hadn't thought of it. Seeing his gray eyes sparkle, Alvin knew what was in his head. However, when did they ever communicate straightly?
"I am busy." Alvin wanted to see how he was going to ask him to teach.
Zane climbed the steps out of the pool and wore the robe when Rob held it for him. Looks like Chipmunk Monster was waiting for him to request it. But he knew to make his father free from his schedule.
"I guess I will have to ask Mommy to sleep with me tonight." Then he walked towards the lounge removing the swim cap. Husband and wife sleep together. So he thought Alvin wouldn't let go of Anya and agreed to teach him again.
Alvin and Rob: "..."
Was the little brat blackmailing him?
Well, Alvin knew Zane could do it. And Anya could never say no to her darling son.
Whereas Rob found the son a miniature of his father. They wouldn't request or ask in a sweet way. They will get whatever they want, by hook or by crook.
Nevertheless, their expression hardened when they faced each other. Even if they considered Gianna or Casper or Miles were using someone to keep an eye on them, it seemed hard to find that man.
