His Devious Rule

569 Hoax

Witnessing the evil smirk even after knowing about the news of his fake death, Anya doubted if Miles was aware of the number of days he was unconscious. He should be in despair. What could make Miles Johnson hold on to his hope?

Who might know about her and inform the criminal organization?

Anya gasped when she recalled the two men she didn't mention to Miles Johnson, "Your secretary!?" She pitied Miles Johnson who hadn't learnt about her or her team yet.

How could she let that secretary be unrestrained even after knowing he was supporting and assisting Miles Johnson with criminal activities?

She went through her mobile and played a video for Miles. It was a video of his secretary stuttering the truth out. However, the secretary doesn't seem to know anything else about criminal organizations.

Another person was, "And… Dane Tiller!" The professor who worked as a second agent at Imperial University. Dane Tiller. Anya got that name on Tuesday. A few owners of the laptops that tried to hack her laptop on Monday met Dane Tiller in subtle ways – In the university canteen, Classroom, parking lot, restaurant, in front of the apartment, and so on. Captain David was heedful to every tiny detail and noticed the events which were hard to take note of. And that too, he did it in just two days.

Then she did a little dig on Dane Tiller. He is a prodigy in his thirties whereas he was a womanizer and a party animal in his twenties. It sounded a bit odd.

Did he achieve his enlightenment in a club?

Then Miles's secretary blurted all out. Dane Tiller was submitting the students' scientific research as his research. The prodigy professor of the Imperial University was just a cheater.

Miles failed to hide his shock from his face. He stared at her when she continued to nonchalantly reveal to him, "I'm weaving him a buttery smooth plan."

To keep everyone safe and avoid the attention of the criminal organization in Narnia, they will have to either fake Dane Tiller's death or detain him in a fake case. So Anya wasn't in a hurry to take down Dane Tiller. Nevertheless, she was keeping an eye on all his activities while he was struggling to look into her activities with those minions.

Miles failed to recover from his shock. Probably he realized that he wasn't just any criminal who could hire a lawyer and get out of Narnia. He discerned Anya and her team could fake his death or even kill him and nobody would get to know about him. Letting him rest, Anya left the room as she added, "We need to catch up on a lot, Mr. Johnson. Get well soon." In contrast to her words, her tone held no warmth.

Miles: "…"

….

Anya was about to enter the office when she noticed Jason's office room door was open. Her nonchalant eyes turned sharp in a split second. She stormed inside Jason's office and slapped her mobile on the desk.

Jason took his own sweet time to take his eyes away from his laptop and looked at grim Anya Owen. He looked unbelievably calm. He glanced at her mobile which was a news article from Country E. He leaned back in his chair and silently waited for Anya to speak. If she is expecting him to justify his actions, then she will be disappointed.

Anya clenched her jaws hearing no response. Grabbing her mobile, she turned to leave when Jason broke the silence, "Spit it out, Deputy Owen." He provoked her, seeing her bury her frustration. He wanted her to vent unlike suppressing and distancing as she did in the past.

Anya hissed at the man, "I could have killed him." Jason stayed quiet and watched her cool down just by those words. However, her face showed traces of anger.

He had asked her to be careful and not to provoke the criminal organization directly when she went to catch Miles Johnson red-handed. Hence Anya didn't kill the foreigner and let him leave the township. However, Anya got the news yesterday from one of the spies that the man she asked to keep an eye on met with a brutal accident.

She didn't believe in coincidences. Then she checked Jason's location and surprise, he was in country E, cleaning all the traces of her presence.

She growled at him, "I could have stayed back a day and put him to permanent sleep." She didn't want anybody to clean up after her. Jason was already busy enough to do those things.

Well, she was also aware her presence back in Narnia was much needed to keep the suspicions at bay. But she could have come up with a plan that wouldn't have cost him to take a trip there. She groaned and stormed out of his office. She didn't bother much about it as Jason was safe.

Jason shook his head in resignation and got back to work. Although Anya was in disguise when she faced the foreigner, with the advanced technology, her facial structure would be more than enough to put her in danger. He didn't want to take a chance as she would be going on her tour to alert different countries and universities.

He suddenly recalled another crucial event, "Anya…" He asked when she spun around, "Any developments?"

Anya took a moment to grasp that he was asking about Arcane - the global spy organization. She shook her head, "Nope." She wanted to believe it was a hoax.

Seeing her disinterest, shrugging her shoulders, Jason was glad Anya was able to contain her curiosity and stay low. He waved his hand, sending her away.

Well, as soon as Anya entered the Team Ace office, she rushed to Senon and questioned, "Senon, did you notice any suspicious activities of that cop?" The cop who slid the Arcane chit in her pocket.

Senon responded with his focus on the screen while preparing his reports, "I didn't find anything suspicious so far, Skye." trance and abruptly stood up. 16:32

Disappointed, "Oh…" She murmured, more to herself before sitting in front of her system. She was eligible to get a private office room for herself as a deputy but she would prefer to be around her team and she hadn't taken charge as deputy yet.

Half of her mind was filled with Arcane, while she went through into the second draft copy of the mission report Dot prepared. Arcane wasn't something a random cop would be aware of. She wanted to know if somebody was digging her a hole to provoke the organization. Or else, find out why the spy organization would try to reach her.

When she almost lost control and her fingers began flying on the keyboard, she gasped out of her trance and abruptly stood up. Team Ace was already in trouble because of her leaked identity, she can't create more issues. So she has to stay away from her system.

Bidding everyone, Anya picked up her darling son from school and headed to Skylark because the little gentleman surprised her by asking if they could meet Alvin.

….

At Skylark,

Entering the building through the main entrance, Anya couldn't hold her curiosity, seeing her son excited, "Won't my Baby tell me the reason behind your excitement?"

Zane grinned ear to ear but refused to reveal anything to her. His steps abruptly slowed down when he noticed Casper in the waiting area. "Momma…" He tugged her hand and pointed at Casper.

Anya turned to where Zane pointed. Casper looked haggard. Much worse than how he looked three days ago. Why is he at Skylark?

Looking at him holding a random magazine, and two empty water bottles on the coffee table, Anya could easily guess as he was waiting for a long time. She wanted to ignore him but her legs refused to move. Zane glanced at her and turned back to Casper. The latter probably sensed their gazes, he looked up from the magazine. Zane let go of Anya's hand and elegantly walked towards Casper, which Anya failed to do.

Casper was stunned at his sight. He glanced at Anya still standing afar and looked at the little man who reached him. He didn't know what to say so he just stared at the little man.

Zane asked respectfully, "Mr. Matthews, are you here to meet my father?" Casper obediently responded to Zane without thinking twice, "Yes." He was waiting for three hours, yet his son didn't bother with him.

Zane gave a subtle nod in acknowledgment and pointed towards the access gates, "I and My mommy are going to meet my father. We will bring you to Dad."

Casper didn't expect Zane to offer him help. He contemplated glancing at Anya before he stood up and followed the duo in utter silence. The Owen couple and his grandson never failed to amuse him with their kind actions.

Whereas Anya had only one question in her mind, 'Why is he at Skylark?' If he was there to threaten or harm Alvin, she was undoubtedly going to bury the man deep into the ground.
