Chapter 229 Living In The Glasshouse

The morning started pleasantly as Zane woke up to the kiss on his forehead. Waking up, and cuddling with her son was a different kind of satisfaction.

Changing to gym wear, Anya looked around for her mobile before recalling she had been to the study room. Zane followed her in leisurewear. "Momma, will I grow taller if I exercise?" He needs to hold Alvin upside down.

"Baby, you will become stronger, healthier, and more active by exercising." Anya rubbed his head as she entered the study room.

Zane muttered to himself, "I need a lot of strength to lift the Chipmunk Monster."

'Chipmunk Monster!' Anya caught those words, wondering what he was thinking of Alvin.

She sat on the couch and pulled Zane in front of her, "Baby, do you know who Alvin Matthews is?"

Zane opened his lips but sealed them back. Then he frowned, "Momma, were you blind in the past?" He asked as if he was worried.

Anya: "..."

She wanted to sulk behind the couch for being called blind to like Alvin.

Zane cupped her face, "My Mommy is so sweet and pretty." His shoulders slacked shaking his head, "What did you like in Mr. Matthews? You definitely would have got a better person."

Anya realized Zane wasn't ready to talk about the 'father' topic. So she didn't force him. Instead, she squinted her eyes at the little man, "Are you looking down on Alvin?" She sounded suspicious.

Zane shrugged as he got away, "Isn't it too late for it, Momma?"

Anya: "..."

Her jaws dropped hearing her son being sarcastic. "You little nugget, stand right there."

Zane ran away, bursting into laughter. Anya checked on the desk where her mobile wasn't there. Then chased after her son who ran up to the gym and caught her hands.

He used his trick. He kissed her cheeks and hugged her, "I love you, Momma." His sweet voice melted her instantly.

Anya could only smile, "I love you too… Baby." Her voice trailed when her eyes pulled towards a man who was glaring at her.

Leaving Zane on the floor, Anya asked the man, "Alvin, where is my mobile?"

Alvin tied the knuckles gloves as he calmly said, "I will give you another chance to correct your words."

Zane: "..."

'This man is so silly.' He understood his father was jealous of him. 'Tsk.'

Anya wondered if she offended Alvin with the question. She hesitantly asked the same question differently, "Have you seen my mobile?"

Zane almost burst into laughter, finding his mother too cute. "Good morning, Mr. Matthews." He helped his mother.

'Oh…' She tilted her head and wished like she was trying to copy her son, "Good Morning, Mr. Matthews."

Zane silently laughed at his father's fate. He went to get a jumping rope for his mother.

Anya glanced at her son's back. Forgetting the mirror at the front. she quickly pecked on Alvin's cheek and ran away before Alvin could try anything mischievous.

Zane: "..."

He pressed his lips in a thin line discerning he will have to share his mother's kisses with Chipmunk Monster. He was no different but jealous, looking at his father's smug smile.

For the rest of the time, the trio worked out. Zane exercised by learning from his mother and trying to copy his father who looked much stronger in the sleeveless t-shirt.

Alvin completed his workout and saw Anya doing planks with Zane sitting on her back. "Little Donut, get ready, we are visiting your parents."

Anya was confused when she heard Alvin, who walked out of the gym. Zane got off her back. "Baby, go and get fresh."

Zane obediently went to his room, while Anya went to Alvin's room. Alvin was waiting for her, he held her mobile out as he let her know, "Gianna Sallow and Gabriel Sallow appeared at your parents' place yesterday evening."

Anya's eyes widened, thinking of the worst. Alvin flicked her nose, "The cops detained them and your parents didn't meet them and are safe."

She relaxed but a frown stayed back on her face. Anya gritted her teeth. She told Gianna to hide or wait for her. Not to create more trouble. She wanted Gianna to rot in the prison.

Alvin pulled her closer but Anya came out of her thoughts and skipped away, uncomfortable to be close while sweating, "No touching till bath." Then she bit her tongue.

Did she just give him permission to hold her after the bath?

Alvin understood her comfort level. He focused on important things, "I attacked the Sallow family. She probably thought your parents were our weakness. I don't think she had any plan to harm them. Rather control us."

Anya knew this day was going to come whether Alvin attacked the Sallow family or not.

She pinched between her brows thinking about what to do with Gianna. Even if she proceeds with the court case, Gianna will just be warned as she wasn't carrying any harmful things.

Alvin rubbed her head seeing her lost in thoughts, "We will drop Little Brat at your parent's place and visit the station. The decision is yours, take your time, don't work up."

He was going towards the bathroom, and Anya caught his hand, "Thank you…" She could understand he was holding back all evening so that she could have a relaxing night.

"Goofball." He went towards the bathroom, threatening her, "A second more in my room, I will get you under my shower." He glanced behind and saw her fleeing right away.

'Argh.' Why did he have to say it? He started fantasizing and ended up under a cold shower.

—––––––

At eleven in the morning,

Dennis and Catalina arrived at the gates to receive Zane. Then they left for the police station.

Entering the police agency, The duo ignored Casper and Harrison. A police lieutenant saw her and greeted, "Anya…"

Alvin's eyes went around the agency as his hand wrapped around her shoulder. Anya saw her schoolmate and flashed a faint smile, "Logan, you work here!?"

Logan paused seeing the man who had fearsome air around, he forced a smile as he pointed towards a room, "I heard your number was unreachable yesterday. Is everything alright?"

Anya didn't hide. She shrugged knowing Casper's eyes and ears were on them, "A good night's sleep is more important than useless calls."

Casper gritted his teeth and stormed towards them, "Is this how you respect your mother-in-law?"

The police station fell into deafening silence.

Anya wasn't a bit afraid of Casper's intimidating gaze, "Who are you?" She turned to Alvin and asked, "Alvin, why don't I know you have a father?"

"Anya Owen!!!" Casper growled at her, taking a step closer in anger.

Alvin involuntarily tugged her away and said through his teeth, "Casper Matthews… " Alvin was annoyed witnessing Casper attempting to scare his Little Donut.

Anya cut in, "Voice down." Her steely gray eyes were chillier than her low, cold voice. "Don't forget, you are at my mercy." She sneered.

Casper clenched his teeth, glaring at her. "You-" Nobody ever spoke to him in that tone.

"Control your wife, Casper Matthews, not mine." Alvin pushed the man aside and took Anya towards the captain's room.

Casper didn't give up. His fury was ticking like a time bomb. He threatened her, "Anya Owen, if the media gets an air of this, I will lose nothing but you." Her parents will have to leave the town in the fear of reporters.

Alvin was about to snap at the man but Anya chuckled without a hint of warmth in her laughter or face. She turned around and went closer to Casper, "I had a misconception that you are a smart man. Tsk…"

Her smile faded and glared back into his eyes, "Casper Matthews, I dare you to throw the stone. You are living in the glasshouse but me."

The cops didn't understand the threat but Casper and the other two did. Casper had a lot of things to hide and an image to maintain. Unlike her.

Alvin smirked watching Casper at a loss of words facing his Fierce Kitten. He had forgotten for a moment that she wasn't the woman to hide behind him. She didn't need his protection.

Threatening her? Anya, who succumbed to the threats, died a long time ago. She turned around and saw Alvin. 'Only Alvin's threats work on me.' She corrected herself.

Alvin wrapped his hand around her shoulder and took her to decide the fate of another annoying one.
