Chapter 512 The Right Time



Whispering, muttering the plans over the call to his son, Benjamin Matthews stressed that it should be a long-term plan without alerting Casper. Then He immediately got to work, informing Casper that Daniel was taking the immediate flight.

Pushing their plans to the back of his mind, and responsible for his position, Benjamin got himself busy, devoting every second to his work.

…

The rest half of the day passed smoothly. Casper was relieved to some extent when the files on his table were reduced. He prepared to depart for the restaurant he booked for the major shareholders of the company.

He had just stepped out of his office, the lady secretary paused in front of him and reported, "Chairman Matthews, the cops are here. They are heading upstairs as we speak." Her voice had a hint of nervousness.

By the end of her words, they heard the sound of a metallic bell, announcing the arrival of the elevator. The lady secretary continued to report as they watched the cops heading towards them, "They are here for Vice President, Benjamin Matthews."

Casper froze. The temporary relief ruined by an impressive counter of Alvin. He had completely forgotten about Cordelia's unsuccessful plan. It hadn't crossed his mind even once that Benjamin could be sent behind bars for executing the plan. 

Cordelia's age was her savior, how was he going to save Benjamin?

Benjamin wasn't some kid to be influenced or a helpless man to be threatened or work for the money. Could there be even a way out for Benjamin?

Casper couldn't believe Alvin held back so long to use it at the right time. What was he going to save?

Company?

Their reputation?

Gianna?

Benjamin?

Cordelia?

Or himself?

Casper was overwhelmed to respond when the cops asked for directions and went towards the vice president's office. In a few seconds, panicked, hysterical Benjamin walked out of his office, repeating that he didn't do anything.

Benjamin hadn't thought even in his dreams that he would exit custody and immediately enter the prison. He looked at Casper with a look of pleading. The fear danced on his eyes and cold beads rolled on his face.

"B-Brother Casper… Brother Casper, do something… Brother Casper…" He begged while he was being taken away by the cops in front of secretaries. 

Benjamin was hoping for Casper to do something as Cordelia was linked with the case. "Brother Casper…" He called out as the elevator door closed and a hush fell over on the top floor of the company.

The secretaries feared to even take a breath. The company which used to celebrate winning and completing projects, being busy with work, and being interviewed by the top business media was overturned in a short time.

As if the snowstorm that had to cross the city, gathered over the Matthews Industries, one after the other, the company and the Matthews family were swarmed in trouble.

Casper stood there without uttering a single word. He was the man who had assumed himself as a powerful individual, yet felt alone, having nobody he could trust. 

The problems that were looking like molehills, began appearing like mountains that were hard to cross. He had the money, he had the position, he had the power yet he felt handicapped and clueless to take control of anything. 

He learned in the hardest way that one man can't be an army, money can't buy everything.

His confidence had dropped, he hesitated to take any step afraid of making the wrong move.

He mindlessly instructed the secretary, "Get him the lawyers." Then he walked away in a stupor.

At the Oasis mansion,

Asking the kids to complete their homework first, Anya went to the bedroom and smiled looking at her husband, sitting in leisurewear before the clock ticked even five.

Skipping towards the man, she sat on his lap and embraced him. She hummed in satisfaction at the warmth of her husband's arms.

Alvin who had hidden his smile watching her perky due to his presence, beamed when she latched onto him like a magnet to the iron. He was pleased to master her every little action.

Silently enjoying the snuggly kitten playing in his arms, Alvin glanced at the breaking news on the news channel. The video of the cops taking away Benjamin was playing in a loop with interesting headlines. 

Rob and Ean visited the police station with videos of the accident to prove it was an intentional attack. Verifying the evidence, the drivers were caught and the cops reached Benjamin Matthews.

What could be Casper's next move?

Feeding the hungry subdivisions of the Matthews family?

Alvin abruptly froze when he felt a jolt of shock coursing through his nerves, arousing him halfway. Turning off the television, he looked at Anya who was admiring his veiny arms, innocently grazing her finger over his nerves. 

Having her in his arms was already tempting enough, she was finding new ways to get him to his knees. Why was she seducing him?

Anya slowly said when she felt his eyes on her, "Jia will be staying with us tonight." Jia's mother was out of the city, and Jason was busy with work. Instead of going to her grandparents, Jia chose to play and stay with Zane.

Anya purposefully ignored the news, without asking him anything about it. Casper should have known Alvin was devious and schemes meticulously.

Alvin's lips slightly smirked hearing his little daughter-in-law was home. On a previous visit, Jia was busy playing. He should entice the little girl with everything so that she follows Zane. 

Should he start by showing a large estate filled with snow?

Suddenly a thought crossed Alvin's mind, "Little Donut, will Jia and Little Brat share the bedroom?" He asked deliberately.

Zane was too smart for his age, will he try to kiss the little girl? Alvin wondered, without knowing if he was fine with it or if he should object to it.

Anya: "..."

Pulling her head away to look at his face, she was bewildered at the man for his thoughts. She agrees Jia was influenced by movies and drama but their son. 

She pulled both of his cheeks and stuffed his corrupted brain, "Even if they share the bedroom, my son is a gentleman." When kids go to bed, they innocently sleep, unlike her wolf husband who waits to devour her.

Alvin's brows raised sharply looking at his wife. Her son was a gentleman when he was indulging her despite being horny.

Alvin shifted her to bed. "Little Donut…" He slowly uttered with a sly smirk gracing his gorgeous face. "A gentleman waits…." He paused, watching her crawl back on the bed to flee, "... for the right time."

Anya: "..."

Why was her husband adamant about corrupting her brain too?

"He is a babyyy..." Anya cried when he suddenly grabbed her ankle and smoothly pulled her beneath him. 

Before he could do something, she tugged his neck and bit his cheek. Giving no second for him to react, she flipped him on the bed and went on top of him. "You dirty old man, they are innocent kids." She grumpily growled at him.

Alvin smirked seeing her baffled. He could guess she just imagined Zane kissing Jia as Zane does her.

Flipping her back on the bed, he pinned her beneath him, slowly raising the temperature between them, watching her lips agape. 

He nibbled her perfect jawline as he warned her, "Casper Matthews might lose his mind." And do something drastic. So they have to be careful.

Anya wanted to stop him when a delicious shiver ran down her spine. Nonetheless, her body was more honest when his warm breath tickled her nerves at the crook of her neck and the tips of his finger grazed down behind another ear. 

When his father was losing his mind, Alvin took his sweet time to turn her into a hot mess beneath him.
