Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 167

"Y-you want to take a look at my room?"

Anna suddenly felt tongue-tied.

Liam’s chilling voice sounded again. "Is that not allowed?"

The atmosphere in the room turned tense. Everyone was exchanging glances with each other.

"Mr. Ackman..." Daniel uttered softly. His hesitance was evident on his face.

Liam might have been Anna's mentor, but Anna was still a grown woman. It was not too appropriate for Liam to visit her room.

Liam stared at the tense expression on Anna's face. His lips curled up into a sinister smile.

"You have a computer in your room, right? I need to send out some documents," said Liam.

"S-send... documents?"

Anna's big eyes blinked confusedly. She was still stuttering.

She had no idea if she should be praising the overbearing man for thinking about work twenty-four-seven or should she condemn him for being so cunning that he could cook up any excuse to reach his goal.

Anna could see the flames in Liam’s eyes. She rejected without hesitation.

"Mr. Ackman, there’s a computer in my father's study. Besides, it's for business use, so I'm sure it's more suited to your business affairs compared to mine!"

He was a stallion that would not let her escape no matter where they were. If she were to allow that wolf t o enter her room, there was no way he would leave without devouring her whole!

She had just come out of a scandal with Bryan-she was already known to all as the pitiable victim of an affair. Anna did not want another rumor to arise about her-one where people suspect her of having some ambiguous relations with Bryan's uncle.

"Mr. Ackman, follow me. A maid will take you upstairs."

Anna showed him a welcome gesture with her hands and flashed a vibrant smile at him. Seeing these made Liam's eyes turn as cold as a lake of ice.

Anna could clearly feel an invisible gust of cold air blowing her way. She felt as if she might freeze to death at any moment.

The frigid expression on Liam's face made everyone mute.

On the other hand, Chloe's heart was filled with delight. She loved that Anna was acting as if Liam was a man that she could casually offend.

Liam's chilling voice sounded again with a petrifying tone.

"Do you think my documents can be sent around casually on just anyone's computer?"

Then, he turned to Daniel. "I'm sure Mr. Hamilton wouldn't want me to use his computer either, right?"

Feeling awkward, Daniel sweated profusely. Liam's glare made him incredibly anxious.

"Anna, it's an honor that Mr. Ackman wants to use your computer. What are you waiting for? Bring him t o your room already!" Daniel instructed hurriedly.

Anna secretly clenched her teeth. "Please come with m e, Mr. Ackman.”

A hint of amusement emerged in Liam’s eyes. He gazed at Anna with profound eyes.

Chloe was a little disappointed. She thought that Anna would meet a horrid end for offending Liam. Why did the scene not develop as she had imagined?

Moreover, she was starting to suspect more and more that Liam was treating Anna differently from anyone else. Even his gaze toward her had a peculiar look to it.

Could the rumor of Liam being gay be false?

Chloe turned to Liam with astonishment, yet he had already gone upstairs with Anna. She wondered what was the meaning behind that look of amusement in the corner of his eyes.

Chloe narrowed her almond-shaped eyes suspiciously.

Just as Liam was entering Anna's room, Chloe’s coquettish voice sounded from behind.

"Uncle, Anna can't see, so let me show you around."

Chloe hurried up the stairs.

Liam's cold eyes darted toward her. Petrified, Chloe's feet instantly froze on the steps.

"Ms. Chloe, you seem to love poking your nose in everyone's business! You're not my student, so who gave you the right to show me around!"

Chloe suddenly felt an icy cold aura surrounding her. Her face flushed red.

"Uncle..."

"Don't call me Uncle. I don't have a niece as old as you."

Liam’s cold and impassive tone humiliated Chloe to n o end.
