Chapter 20 - Foolish Wild Kitten (2/2)

Suddenly he heard her heels clicking and turned towards the stairs. She looked at him as if she saw a ghost, horror-filled eyes.

Alvin: ”...”

She was fine a few seconds back.

She ran out screaming, ”Help… Help…”

”What the f**k!” He ran after her immediately. He can't let her create a fuss and let anybody else see him. He stepped out of the house and looked around. The autumn cold air caressed his honey-tinted skin yet, he desperately tried to search for her. The scream had stopped and he didn't get to see her.

He suddenly felt somebody move behind him, he turned around and saw her sneaking inside, holding her heels in her hand. ”You…”

She kicked away from the door.

'Thud.'

Her kick on his leg barely moved him and Alvin stood speechless at the door. He didn't know if he was angry or not. He couldn't believe her stupid plan worked and she threw him out of the house, just like that.

Inside, Anya changed the passcode of her door hurriedly and slumped on the floor. ”Ahhhh…. Why did you come back into my life?” She cried to herself.

She had helped him in the past because she liked him. Today, she wanted to regret helping him just because he was the father of her darling son.

”You crazy woman!!”

She stiffened hearing his growl at the door.

”Open the damn door.” He demanded as if it was his house.

Anya snorted, ”Die in the cold.”

She dragged her exhausted body upstairs and saw his shoes lying on the stairs. She wanted to burn him and his things. She grabbed his stuff, went to the balcony, and threw out, ”I am calling the police. Get out of here.” She gave a final warning and got inside very quickly.

She took her mobile out of the bathtub and checked. She had bought a waterproof phone due to Zane so it was working fine. She spoke to Krystle while cleaning her bathroom and wherever he dirtied the house. She told her everything and Krstyle was disappointed, ”My brave girl, you should have stomped his stupid thing.” She snorted.

Krystle also knew getting into the bad books of Alvin or the Matthews family was the last thing they should do. Her friend wouldn't be able to live if Alvin takes Zane away by bringing the law and stuff.

Anya then convinced Krystle to go back and enjoy her evening as she was tired and will go to bed after a bath.

”Annie, how about you stay with me tonight?” Krystle doesn't trust Alvin, whatsoever. In case he got to know Zane was his son, Krystle wanted to do everything in her power to take Anya and Zane away from Alvin.

Anya wanted to say yes but recalled the hard disk. She wasn't allowed to go out and around. If Krystle comes to her place and if a problem lurks around her, Krystle will be in trouble. She can't risk her friend's life. ”It's alright Krystie, I will manage. I will call you immediately if anything.”

Krystle unwillingly accepted because changing her friend's opinion was hard as a rock. Anya continued, ”Krystie, did you get the Pendrive I sent to you?”

”Yeah!!”

”If I disappear…”

”I will find you, Sweetheart. I will punch that man in the face and burst his balls.”

Anya chuckled at her energetic, fun-packed friend. She also knew Krystle was trying to cheer her up so that she could get rid of Alvin's thoughts.

After bidding her, she ran into her study and opened a secret block on the wall. She grabbed a small old mobile and switched it on. She dialed a string of numbers and stood by the window, watching outside. If Alvin hadn't disturbed her, she would have made this call as soon as she entered the home.

A hoarse voice of a man greeted her, [Ms. Owen.]

Anya stated her decision, clear crystal, ”I don't want to do this job.” Secretariat wasn't her real job.

The voice softened on the other end but he tried to guilt-trip her, [Ms. Owen, how can you back out at this critical time?]

It didn't work on Anya. She countered instantly and confidently, ”I have never signed myself for a risky job.” She would never risk her son and her parents' life for a job. But there she was, unaware of what might happen to her in the night and how it might affect her family.

With all that, Alvin's return to her life was causing havoc in her mind.. All she could think was how to keep Alvin away from her and her son.
