Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 166

Initially, Anna wanted to ask if he was Liam.

However, she was afraid that Charles would end up not being Liam at all. If that was the case, asking him that might even arouse suspicion regarding the secret relationship between Liam and her. Thus, Anna decided to probe him with the nickname 'Crazy Voyeur’.

As expected, Charles got angry.

Charles did not send her any more messages after that.

Anna rested her cheek on her palm and scrolled through her chat log with Charles. That man harassed her almost every single day.

Who the hell was he?

There were times that she thought it was Liam, but it was hard to believe that a man like Liam would do something so silly.

The relationship between them was lukewarm, yet he could not have gone to the extent of opening a Facebook account just to pester her, right?

Anna scrolled through the comments online chastising Chloe and Bryan. They were as abundant a s snow.

Anna would not believe it if someone were to say there was no conspirator behind this incident.

She wondered who was constantly helping her from the shadows.

She clicked into Liam's contact, almost calling his mobile. In the end, she resisted.

She hurriedly called Nina instead to dispel her urge to contact Liam.

"I'm sorry, Anna, but my mother has fallen ill these few days. I don't have time to keep you company.”

"What happened? Is it serious? Is there anything I can do to help?” Anna inquired worriedly.

"It’s okay, Anna. It's just a bad cold. She burns up quite frequently.”

Anna's heart ached when she heard Nina's exhausted tone. "Nina, you have to take good care of yourself too. Don’t tire yourself out. And you can't be working longterm at the Earldom Club. I have some money. Take it for now.”

"It's okay, Anna. I've been saving up recently. We have enough to get by."

Nina had always been worried that others might think she was friends with Anna because of her money. Hence, she never borrowed a penny from Anna.

Anna knew Nina's temper well. She never dared to say much to her when it came to money.

"You must tell me if you need anything, okay? Don’t try to shoulder everything by yourself." Anna was still a little worried.

"Alright, I know. I'm hanging up now."

Anna put down her phone and gazed outside the window.

She thought that her life so far could be considered fortunate—at the very least, she never had to worry about money.

Nina, on the other hand, not only needed to find the means to feed herself, but she also had to take care of her sickly mother. Her life was tough, yet Anna could not do anything to help.

She texted Jamie to see if he could help Nina in any way as she changed her clothes. She was about to head downstairs to look for something to eat.

Just as opened the door, she heard Nicole's voice from downstairs.

"Mr. Ackman, what brings you here? Come in!"

Mr. Ackman?

Anna hurriedly gazed downstairs from the thin gap of the slightly ajar door. However, she could not see anything. She quickly pressed her ear against the gap and listened carefully to any movements downstairs.

Which Mr. Ackman?

Was it Liam Ackman?

Her little heart suddenly thumped wildly.

Liam appeared at the Hamiltons' home with a cool expression on his face. Taken by surprise, Nicole hurriedly yelled.

"Danny! Mr. Ackman is here!"

Daniel hastened out of the study room.

He, too, was shocked by Liam's arrival. He hurriedly went forward to welcome him.

"Mr. Ackman, what brings you here? Please, have a seat. Nicole, what are you standing there for? Go make some tea."

Liam glanced upstairs, then sat down on the sofa.

His silence and cold expression made Daniel anxious.

Daniel rubbed his hands together uneasily. "Uh, Mr. Ackman... You came all the way here..."

What for?

Daniel did not dare to ask those two words.

"Home visit," Liam said nonchalantly.

Home visit?

Anna's heart shuddered. What a lousy excuse!

He was a mentor, not a primary school homeroom teacher!

Daniel was also flabbergasted.

Home visit?

When did Anna's teachers even need to see her parents?
