Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 148

Anna waited for Liam's answer for a long time, but unexpectedly, he ended up laughing.

His laughter was so disdainful that it made Anna's expectation instantly disappear without a trace.

"I don't need love!" said Liam.

That word was quite unfamiliar to him, it was an emotion so unfamiliar that he never thought of touching it or having it, it never even occurred in his mind.

That was why he found it surprising and amusing when Anna asked him this question.

"Oh," said Anna plainly. She did not say anything else nor did she have the courage to look at him again.

"Then why are you helping me?" She could not help but ask softly.

"I felt that it wasn't exciting enough when you only called your father to catch them cheating. A good show must have the appropriate impact, it won't be a good show if it doesn’t blow up in a snap!"

"Just like that?"

"If not then what do you think I did it for?"

"It's late, I should go home!"

"You're not jumping into the river anymore?" teased Liam.

"When did I want to jump into the river!"

Liam could not help but laugh when he saw that she was like a lion cub again. "I'm glad you're not."

As Liam was preparing to send Anna back, he received a sudden phone call and immediately had a troubled look on his face.

Anna looked at him strangely and only heard him say over the phone, "Yes, I understand, I'll go right away."

Anna did not ask him what happened as she knew that he would not tell anyway.

This man was very shrewd, he never tells anyone the truth directly and earnestly. It was hard to say whether he was a closely guarded man or he distrusts everyone around him.

Should he be described as overly alert or sly?

Anna was shoved into the car by Liam just as she was deep in thought. He ordered James to personally send her home safely.

In the end, he went beside her ear and said softly, "I'll let you go for now, my little lady.” 1

Anna's body trembled as she looked toward Liam, but he had already closed the car door and walked away.

Anna gazed at his tall and handsome silhouette through the car window, both his legs were so alluring. She wanted to have him for herself and hug him like a teddy bear.

However, this man was like a wisp of wind that could not be captured, seemingly moving between the fingers but turning to nothing when grasped.

James personally brought Anna back home.

Daniel hurriedly welcomed them and respectfully thanked James. "Thank you Mr. James for bringing Anna back. Thank you so much!"

Daniel wanted to invite James in for a cup of tea but h e declined.

"Mr. Hamilton, Sir told me to give my regards on his behalf."

Daniel was stunned. What did this greeting from Liam mean?

James did not explain and left after he respectfully nodded at Anna.

Anna could not help but feel displeased with this master and servant pair, both of them were alike in their coldness.

"Anna, where did you go? Our calls couldn't get to you either. I looked for you everywhere, I'm worried sick."

Nicole ran over as she pretended to worriedly check o n Anna. She wanted to give Anna an affectionate hug but she stepped back and avoided it.

"What were you worried about? Worried that TH hurt

myself out of desperation?"

There was no need for Anna to appear friendly with Nicole anymore. Even if she were to berate Nicole, Daniel would not say a word.
