On a private island,

Miles Johnson was thrilled watching the news of Anya and Alvin completely change. One who should be known for his new company was scandalized and another one who should be celebrating her award with pouring wishes was being scolded for prioritizing her career over the family.

He found it hilarious that many people were vouching with the article and justifying Alvin cheating on her.

Well, Miles could make a guess Anya and Alvin were recently married. He didn't even know if Zane was Alvin's son but he liked how his actions were causing chaos in Alvin and Anya's life.

He lost the billions worth of the company branch, its market in Narnia, the ship, and yachts due to Anya. And how dare Alvin poke his nose in his business?

He wouldn't have done any of these if Anya had agreed to leave Alvin and go with him. According to him, they deserved what he was doing. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

After a refreshing swim in the temperature-controlled swimming pool of the villa, Miles ran his fingers through his wet hair and snickered.

What he loved the most was the timing of everything. Inauguration of Skylark, the presidential award, Gianna in the prison.

For destroying the Johnson family's reputation in their home country, his payback was disrupting the Matthews family.

But, how could a grandmother try to kidnap her grandson?

That question was puzzling his mind. He instructed, glancing at his secretary, "Find out why Gianna Sallow tried to kidnap that little brat."

The secretary accepted the orders and went aside to instruct their people.

After a happy meal and some office meetings. Miles Johnson sat with his cup of coffee and enjoyed the view of the ocean from the living hall. More than the view, his lips were smirking imagining the arrogant Alvin struggling to solve the scandal.

He took a sip wondering how Anya might be reacting to the news as it affected her image. "How would a wife react to her husband's one-night stands?" He mumbled the question to himself.

The secretary, who was busy with work, assumed it was a question for him, "The wife will be undoubtedly angry. If the husband doesn't handle it well, then divorce..."

'Ring, ring...' The secretary paused and went aside to answer the call.

Miles laughed. He had asked her to leave with him. If she dumps Alvin, he was eager to see how arrogant Alvin could be.

He had just taken another sip, the secretary rushed to him scrolling on his mobile. "President Johnson." He passed the new viral social media post. They could see the face of the lady blur but the rest of the faces were clear.

[That woman encouraged us to go to Alvin Matthews's suite saying his wife wasn't there. If she could think of ruining her son's life, why would she like Alvin Matthews's son?]

Before Miles could fathom the whole thing, the secretary opened an article that wasn't paid like other articles or commented on by the water army.

Miles's grip on the cup hardened when he brushed his eyes over the content. He had to hire a few people to get many posts to target Alvin and Anya. And just a post, Anya and Alvin turned into victims of Gianna who was innocent in this situation.

Both males and females were commenting in favor of Anya and Alvin and questioning the previous posts. If Alvin was neglected by his wife, why would he ask her to inaugurate the company?

If Anya didn't care about her family, why would she send her mother-in-law to prison?

And many people even started questioning the authenticity of the picture. And what is the possibility of the lady being just a passerby or Alvin's employee?

Miles smashed the coffee mug on the floor and gritted his teeth. He breathed heavily as his face morphed into fury. His silence was scaring the secretary who walked away and stayed quiet.

After an eternity of suffocating air, Miles slapped his palm on the table, "Doesn't he know it was me?"

He scoffed, unable to believe Alvin framed his mother. He had seen with his own eyes when the lady followed Alvin to his suite.

He considered releasing the video but netizens were already doubting the lady as his employee. "Did you find out about the lady in the video?"

He believed the lady would accept to play with him for some money assuming her as an escort or a gold digger. Hence for his next move, he had asked to get her information.

The secretary broke into a cold sweat. He uneasily responded, "That lady is his heiress of Vision companies. She is married to the elder son of the company The Building People." He got the information just sometime back.

Miles's eyes widened realizing he just provoked his company partner without awareness. The Johnson company was massive with numerous projects. He was working with The Building People companies on a large project for more than three years. He didn't even want to imagine the consequences of angering them.

Anyhow, Miles wanted to believe the lady wasn't going to reveal it to anybody as her face wasn't clear in the picture.

The secretary's shoulders jumped when his mobile rang. The color of his face went white as a sheet looking at the president of The Building People.

"Pre-president Johnson," He showed the mobile screen to Miles.

Miles knew what was going to happen. He felt like he just dug his own grave to fall in it. "Tell him, I am not here." He commanded his secretary. He hoped the reason behind the call was a business purpose.

Did Miles Johnson regret releasing the posts against Alvin?

He did.

He hadn't even thought in his dreams that his plan could bite him back and Alvin could be so sly to handle the situation so meticulously.

On one hand, Alvin had assured the two companies from country X that he wouldn't reveal the lady's identity so that they target Miles. On other hand, Alvin got rid of the scandal pinning it on Gianna with a mere statement of a lady.

The secretary who heard the furious voice of the caller, was helpless, repeatedly denying he had no idea what they were talking about. Anyway, the caller didn't believe him.

"President Johnson, i-if you don't meet them by tonight, they will terminate the partnership and threaten that they will influence others to do the s-same."

Well, even if they meet, Miles knew well that the partnership wasn't going to be well blanched anymore. Thus Miles rushed to leave the island so that he could manage the situation with lower loss.

At the Owen family house,

Instead of a feasting, joyful breakfast time, Alvin watched the four's mood down. Zane was sad and repeatedly glanced at Anya. Anya was forcing fake smiles and trying hard to focus on the breakfast. Dennis and Catalina could only sigh.

He knew they weren't angry at him but gloomy at how things were turning out.

It wasn't long, the media were at the gates and on the road. They got a whiff of Alvin and Anya being in the house so they endured the chilly wind and waited for them.

Anya's shoulders dropped and she sighed deeply looking at the crowd and through the window. She was trying to mentally prepare to receive the questions but it felt hard.

She has to be meticulous when answering the media. She wasn't sure if ignoring them would cause trouble.

"Mommy... Mommy... Mommy..." Zane excitedly called her out. He passed the iPad to her while grinning ear to ear.

Pushing the trouble to the back of her mind, Anya smiled involuntarily looking at him elated. Instead of checking the tab, she gently pinched his chubby cheek, "What is making my baby so happy?"

"Momma, check it." Zane pointed to the Ipad for her to check and watched her eagerly. After reading the new article and the comments of the people, he was happy to see nobody scolding Anya.

Rather, new posts and articles were speaking of Anya Owen being the second youngest recipient of the presidential award in Narnia.

Alvin, Dennis, and Catalina also watched Anya, hoping to see her mood clear a bit and relax.

However, the article wiped off the smile from Anya's face. She frowned without checking the whole article and narrowed her eyes at Alvin. Displeasure was evident on her face.

Zane's face fell seeing her reaction and the elders were wordless without knowing how to react.
