Chapter 367: 367 Selfish

At the Owen family house,

Slowly, everyone found their way out. Although Dennis's brother was itching to acquainted with the billionaire, he left when he met Anya's icy gray eyes. He was a fool to expect her to be the same depressed Anya Owen from five years ago.

Mrs. Nicola Owen enviously looked at Anya. She had thought chubby, plumpy Anya won't even get a good-looking man to date. She had assumed Anya's life was in the abyss with her son when Anya got pregnant out of wedlock.

Thus she hadn't expected Anya's personal and professional lives to be so successful. She tugged at her daughter who was the same age but still looking for a job and depending on them.

Catalina's mother looked at Alvin disdainfully as he was the one who made Anya pregnant and ran away. Well, she didn't have the right to know about them and the truth.

Once everyone left, Anya cuddled her son in her arms, hoping he wasn't hurt by Nicola Owen's words.

Alvin heard Catalina explain everything while Dennis went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. He looked at the mother and son and sighed. Probably he shouldn't have let them go without him when he knew how cunning and shameless relatives could be.

He sat next to the couch when Catalina went to the kitchen. He looked at Zane who had the sweetest smile hearing Anya giving all the credit to him for all her awards and achievements.

It's good she took Zane's presence in her life as a motivation to work and achieve so much, unlike Janet who found Alvin a burden.

Alvin cut in when he earned no attention from the two, "Little Donut, we need to leave after breakfast." They need to give a statement to the police agency.

Anya pouted after hearing him. She was still grumpy about his reaction after knowing about the award and the stupid people in her parents' house. "I don't want to talk to you. Don't talk to me." She slid away from him.

Zane glanced at Alvin. Oddly, he wasn't able to get angry at Alvin as he took care of security for his grandparents.

He looked at his mother who needed some attention and coaxing. "Momma, you should get real angry at Chipmunk Monster."

Her fury would be silent as a cold stone, fierce to break some bones or heartless with a merciless tongue. This was just a little tantrum. He got off her lap and ran to the kitchen leaving her speechless.

Alvin narrowed his eyes at his little enemy for trying to provoke his Little Donut against him. He caught her arm and pulled her closer, "Little Donut..."

"There is no little donut." Anya humped, crossing her arms and looking away from him.

"Goofball." He just didn't want her useless relatives to think she was married to nobody. He didn't care about his image but hers.

Well, Anya didn't care what they thought. Anya grumbled, voicing her annoyance, "They didn't even believe me when I said I'm married."

She couldn't believe the people who she grew up around thought so ill about her.

Alvin smiled helplessly knowing what bothered her. He wrapped his arms and pulled her into his embrace. People only believe what they want to. He or she can't change them.

Nevertheless, he teased her, "You should have carried our marriage certificate." Well, she had locked their certificates in the bank vault to keep them away from him.

Anya poked his chest and sternly stated word after word, "You. Should. Be. With. Me." Not their marriage certificate.

Alvin felt his heart warm up hearing her. This mother and son are too good at leaving him tongue-tied. Aren't they?

Alvin squeezed her in his arms and kissed her forehead. He hadn't thought in her shoes but was glad she wasn't angry.

He recalled a call he received a while ago. He let go of her from his arms as he updated her, "Little Donut, Uncle Bernard contacted me. He said you will be under observation and a team will keep an eye on the progress of the case.

After they confirm that you are clean without any unlawful acts, they will send you the invitation for the national day." The national day when she will be awarded in front of the high officials and netizens watching live streams.

Bernard also warned him that Casper would do something so that the public eye could be on Anya and Gianna could be saved.

Alvin didn't want to inform Anya about this at first. He would have chosen to take care of Casper by letting her be happy with the award news.

However, he was aware she would prefer to know about it. So he was trying to share it with her so that she doesn't feel like he was hiding it from her.

With all these thoughts of the award, the people at her parents' place, she hadn't thought of it.

The Presidential award!?

She did work hard all these years but it was undeniable that she got the missions which included multiple and large crimes. Luck did include in her life.

Considering she was the youngest to get this award, not just the cyber security chief, there will be a lot of people who would try to remove her from the list, and voice against the selection.

Although she had never expected to get such a prestigious award, now that it had reached her son's ears, she wouldn't let just anybody harm her or her reputation.

Anya stated when Alvin paused, "We will have to be careful of Casper."

Alvin nodded as his slender fingers played with her hair, "Let me keep an eye on me."

"Alvin, you are already..." Anya paused when she realized Alvin's all the plans.

He was keeping Cordelia aside because if Casper tried to play dirty, he would bring Cordelia and Benjamin under the law. Then it would be even harder for the Matthews family to get away from the law.

However, Casper was unstained. He never chose illegal processes or physically harmful ways. So Alvin was waiting for Casper to take the wrong step. If Casper tried to make any kind of move on her or Alvin, Alvin would put a full stop, once and for all.

"You are so devious." Anya does make plans but she felt naive about his widespread scheme.

One corner of his lips arced slyly. The moment he decided to settle in Narnia, He knew Gianna and Cordelia would be threatened. Casper was a very strong-minded and confident person. So the only way was to let them commit the crime.

But he hadn't expected Gianna to phish and Cordelia to attack the wrong person.

To save those two women and their reputation he was expecting Casper to do something. During this time, her award came as a surprise.

He wasn't aware of how these all would affect Anya. Thus Bernard's alert was useful. So it was better if Anya just enjoys her glory while Casper's mind will be corrupted.

"I will take it as a yes," Alvin said, pressing his lips on her cheek.

Anya was about to snuggle her face against his, her back straightened hearing the knock and hurried footsteps from the doorway. Alvin narrowed his eyes on Rob.

As per the orders, Rob and the other men visited the neighbors, gave them a bag of sweets, and subtly reminded them to speak carefully if the media asks them anything about Anya.

While busy with it, he got a call from Ean's secretary informing him about another drama, uproaring over the internet.

"Err-" Rob wanted to call Alvin aside and report but Anya would anyway get to know about it, "Something is up."

"Another thing." Anya felt exhausted.

Zane ran out of the kitchen with his iPad and glared at Alvin. He tugged Anya away from Alvin and passed the iPad to her as he continued to glare at Alvin.

He just searched over the internet to know if there is anything about Anya. Thus he ended up looking at the trending news of his father cheating on his mother.

Despite believing in Alvin that he hadn't cheated on his mother after they were in a relationship, he disliked seeing Alvin in a picture with another woman.

Zane was infuriated when he read an article in which they mentioned Anya as selfish for focusing on her job to get an award instead of her family. Hence her husband had to find pleasure outside the marriage.

How could people be so ridiculous?
