Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 171

No right to say 'no'!

What a domineering man!

Anna felt the pain in her heart worsening. Her gaze turned aloof and his, cold.

"Mr. Ackman, perhaps you felt that it was thrilling to b e with me because I was Bryan Dawson's fiancee!

Now, the marriage between the two of us has been called off. I am no longer your nephew's fiancee. The thrill of danger should have also died down by now!"

Liam's eyes turned colder and scarier. A dense and dark air surrounded him. He was like a demon that descended from the depths of hell-standing above all with a petrifying aura...

"Anna Hamilton, all this while, women were the ones chasing after me. You are the first one to push me a thousand miles away! You better learn what’s good and what's bad for you!

"I’ve told you before, without me, you'll plummet to unreachable depths! You can only rely on me!

"Without me, you have nothing!"

His icy voice bombarded her, making her heart shudder.

"So? You just want a toy, don't you?"

She gazed at him with hopeful eyes. She yearned to find a tiny bit of the answer she wanted within those cold and wrathful eyes of his.

Even so, there was nothing on his face besides the frigidity of the deep ocean.

"What do you think?" he responded with a question.

Anna smiled faintly. She closed her eyes, pressing her lips tightly together and not saying a word more.

She was afraid of the agonizing pain that might well u p in her heart if she saw the indifference in his eyes again.

The pain was like a rusted blade thrusting in and penetrating right through her chest. Even her breaths would shake.

Seeing her aloof manner made Liam's flames burn to their absolute limit. He flung her onto the bed. His gaze turned infinitely cold.

At that instant, he had locked away all his emotions and glanced at her with the gaze of a stranger.

"Fine. Anna Hamilton, I'll grant you your wish!"

Having said that, he turned away and strode out of the room.

Anna watched as he left. Finally, the wetness in the corner of her eyes spread out. Huge droplets fell onto the bed, splashing as they hit the surface.

Let it end like this!

It would be best not to start something that she knew she was never going to have.

The things that he wanted were not the things that she wanted!

She could not give him the things he wanted; he could not give her the things she wanted either...

Liam left Anna's room. Just then, he saw Lisa coming with a plate of fruits.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Ackman.” Lisa moved to the side t o let him pass.

Seeing his expression, which was as cold as ice, made Lisa worry. "Mr. Ackman, did Ms. Anna upset you?"

Liam suddenly stopped in his steps.

Lisa hesitated for a while, then said in a humble tone," I am just a maid but I can tell that you care a lot about Ms. Anna..."

Liam did not reply nor did he turn his head back. His spine turned stiff.

"Ms. Anna..." Lisa checked her surroundings. When she noticed no one was around, she continued in a lowly tone, "She has lost her mother and had her fiance snatched away by her Ms. Chloe. She was forced into her current state... Ms. Anna truly deserves pity..."

Lisa started to choke up as she spoke.

"You are a man of incredible status and power, Mr. Ackman. Your appearance in Ms. Anna's life and your teachings and concern toward her are all great things."

Lisa genuinely hoped that her precious Ms. Anna would end up with Liam Ackman. It would be incredibly good news if that were to happen!

"Unfortunately, she can’t tell good from bad!" One could hear the untamable rage in Liam's impassive voice.

"Mr. Ackman... if I may be so bold as to ask a favor..." Lisa uttered cautiously.
