Chapter 30: A Happy Life With Her Baby

'I would destroy the entire city if doing so meant keeping you safe.'

Anya: "..."

Probably watching too many cartoons or reading comics with her son, she felt a crow cawing over her head after listening to Alvin.

He could just say he means no harm to her. 'What's with his words? Does he think of himself as the ruler of the city living in his mansion? Tsk.' She mocked him in her mind, looking at his serious face.

She internally left a sigh. It wasn't the first time she was speaking with unreasonable, tactless Alvin Matthews. He had his way of dealing with people without uttering his true intention. So she shrugged in her mind and decided to ignore him.

Now she aimed to have some food, gain some energy. Then find some warm clothes and flee. She didn't believe he was going to let her go that easily despite hearing him say 'Later.'

'Should I steal a car?' Her eyes looked for a car. A car was at the side and a huge car garage behind it. Stealing from the garage would alert people so a car outside the garage was the best choice. 'Keys?'

Alvin watched her fall silent and stopped struggling. He didn't believe her obedient act. Taking her temper from the previous day and today, he was sure she had a lot going on in her head.

Instead of getting annoyed, he was intrigued by her antics. 'Let's see what she has up her sleeves.' He looked forward to it.

Alvin went near the mansion door when Anya noticed many eyes on them. Turning to the entrance, she saw Ean's jaw drop enough for a fly to enter his mouth, the butler looked worried, the middle-aged lady seemed annoyed because the lady's gaze on Anya was a little off.

Another man in a suit caught her attention, she probably saw him somewhere. When she glanced at the young lady in nurse uniform swooning over Alvin, she guessed the man as a doctor. He seemed anxious too.

The doctor spoke hurrying them inside, "Mr. Matthews, why did you let her leave? The lady woke up earlier than expected. The effects of drugs are still in her body."

Anya discerned she wasn't actually physically weak but sleepy. The sleepy body tends to feel colder than normal body conditions. 'No doubt, I was feeling off.' She thought.

Alvin shifted his gaze on her with a face blaming her for not taking care of herself. Anya felt a chill run down her spine when she met his gaze. She almost apologized but realized it was her body, not his.

'Argh.'

"I will walk." Her voice was barely audible due to embarrassment under so many eyes.

Alvin mercilessly mocked, "Then roll to the ground."

Anya craved to choke him and say 'I am not weak' but controlled. Her body was indeed weak.

Before she could counter, her attention shifted to a different matter. She was expecting some good food to nourish her body but Alvin turned to the stairs and started climbing.

'Where is he taking me? I am hungry.' She glanced at him, thinking if she might sound shameless to ask for food after running away from there.

Alvin glanced at her sulking face while chewing her lower lip watching the hallway. A rare curve of amusement bloomed on his handsome face. He never had a pet but reminded him of a kitten too much. He stopped smiling when he realized it and instructed.

"Aunty Sophie, get her lunch to room." Then he saw her grey orbs sparkle. Almost another smile seized his face, he managed to morph into indifference when her eyes shifted to his face.

'Sophie,' Anya uttered in mind, guessing Sophie was the housekeeper.

Sophie went towards the kitchen after responding to Alvin. The other four, Ean, butler, doctor, and nurse followed Alvin like loyal servants of the royal palace.

Father Owen was a simple civil servant and Mother Owen had her small business as a knitter. As a middle-class family girl, these were a little too much, uncomfortable for her. However, she didn't show it on her face and stayed quiet, hoping to get off his arms quicker.

Alvin, who went towards the rooms, paused. He returned to the second living room on the first floor and left her on the luxurious couch.

Four men watching her, Anya stole everyone's eyes, looking here and there. Alvin waited for a few seconds and sneered "Doctor Carson, do you need a special invite?"

Anya: "..."

She was fine, she was waiting for food.

Ben Carson was speechless too. How could he know Alvin stopped there so that he could check on the lady?

Ean, who got to know Alvin brought the lady home in the morning, was eager to ask hundreds of questions to Alvin. Ean had no idea about the hard disk or anything. He tapped Alvin's shoulder and pointed aside, signaling him to go with him for a conversation.

Alvin watched the nurse take out the thermometer and blood pressure monitor. Annoyed at the disturbance of his friend, he turned to his friend who had a pleading gaze, asking him to go aside for a chat.

"Study." His monotonous order passed. He had some work for Ean to handle to get the young Mommy out of the mess.

Ean's curiosity died looking at Alvin's stern face. He nodded and went towards the study thinking who crossed Alvin this time.

Alvin turned back to the three. It was just a quick check so it was completed quickly. Ben Carson reported to Alvin while the nurse packed, "Mr. Matthews, give some light food to the lady and let her rest. A nap would be better for her to feel refreshed. And there is nothing to be worried about."

Anya: "..."

Alvin saved her from Harper Johnson and she was thankful for it. He wasn't obliged to take care of her, she couldn't understand what he was up to with all his actions. Never mind, she ignored him when she noticed the housekeeper holding a tray of food. All she had in mind was eating and escaping.

Alvin glanced at her and followed her line of sight. She was behaving like a kid, he couldn't guess how she takes care of a child. He responded to the doctor with a nod and looked at the butler. The latter understood the silent instruction and took the nurse and doctor downstairs.

Before the lunch tray could reach Anya's hands, she gasped when he scooped her up in his arms, "Alvin Matthews." She hissed in annoyance, "Put me down." She demanded.

She never let any man come close to her, Alvin crossed her again and again. That just triggers her to shove him away in defense. However she tried to get off his arms, he wasn't budging.

Alvin paused. His indifference turned cold, his gaze turned intense when he faced her. He rewound every action around her in his mind. None took his name, Even Ean called his name when she wasn't there. "How do you know my name?"

Anya froze in his arms hearing his sharp voice piercing a hole through her ears. Nevertheless, she perceived, "Alvin didn't identify me. He doesn't know me. So... He doesn't know about Zane,' One couldn't describe how elated she was to know that. Her main worry vanished so she had no more fear of facing Harper Johnson and getting relieved of the job.

'After solving the mess, I can go back to live my happy life with my baby. This is great.'

However, her happiness wasn't meant to last long.
