Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 248

Anna walked out of the SN office building, stood at the entrance for a long moment, but her feet refused to take a single step.

Liam was standing beneath the street lamps, his long frame further lengthened by the dim lights.

In the middle of the night, the streets were empty, not a single soul was seen. Only the shadows of the trees shook in the wind, rustling non-stop, making the night seem even quieter.

"Come out! Otherwise, your marks will be reduced to zero." Liam looked at Anna and ordered coldly.

Anna pursed her lips, and muttered under her breath," All you’re good at is threatening me with deducting m y marks."

She shuffled towards Liam slowly, before she could take her place, Liam was shouting again.

"What’s your relationship with him?"

"Relationship? He’s just my boss!" Anna blinked, feeling confused.

"Just your boss?" Liam scoffed, "If he's just your boss, why would you be chatting and laughing with him so happily this late at night?"

"We're just talking! Don't tell me you don’t talk to your staff, Mr. Ackman?"

"We don't laugh!”

"That’s because you're a cold-blooded animal!”

"Anna Hamilton, in just two days, you've learned how t o seduce a man!” Liam stared at her with cold eyes, like a lion that was going to pounce on her at any second.

"Mr. Ackman, please don’t talk nonsense! Mr. Collins i s my boss, he's just worried about Nina’s and my safety, isn’t that just normal? Why do you have to make him sound so sad?” Anna was furious.

"Besides, if you didn't request time and time again for the proposal to be rewritten, we wouldn't have to work overtime! Can you be more reasonable? Why am I always the guilty party, while you act like you’re right all the time!” Anna said indignantly, tears rimming her eyes red.

Liam looked at her deeply, and lowered his voice," That's because you're too stupid, you can't do anything well."

"If I can't do anything well, I don’t have to stand here and take all this from you!" Anna bit her lips, forcing her tears back.

"If you think you can’t take it anymore, just give up! No one forced you to stay.” Liam retorted.

"You're right, no one forced me to stay, I just want to show you my capabilities! I don't want you to look down on me anymore, I don't want to be a tool for you t o fulfill your needs, I want to be more than that!"

Anna pushed Liam away, wiped off the tears at the corners of her eyes, and strode forward.

Liam froze, even though he was infuriated, a warm bubble spread through his chest.

His lips curved up in a tiny arc, he looked at Anna, who was walking ahead of him furiously and slowly traced her steps.

"Where are you going?"

Anna quickened her steps angrily, pursed her lips, and remained quiet.

Suddenly, she stopped and glared at Liam walking behind her. "I don’t have anything to do with him! You have to be clear, I'm just here to work and get my salary! Don't think anything is going on between me and every single man out there!

"In your mind, I'm just a cheap woman who goes around flirting with men?"

Liam smiled, his handsome face could rival the gods above, "Anna, are you explaining yourself?"

Anna was dazed by his question, she hurriedly turned her back to him and trudged ahead.

"Not at all!"

Liam followed her calmly, and after a few seconds, he stopped.

Anna walked ahead for some time, but when she didn't hear any noises coming from behind her, she couldn’t take it anymore and turned her head to look behind her...

However, Liam was nowhere to be seen.

On the dimly lit streets, she had no one but the wind a s company, a gush of terror welled up in her.

She wound her arms around her body tightly, "Mr. Ackman?"

"Mr. Ackman..."

She called out twice, but there was no reply.

She felt even more afraid, the night was deep, there wasn’t a single car left on the streets. She stood there all alone, an unknown fear crept through her.

She hurriedly traced her original footsteps in search o f him.

"Mr. Ackman? Where are you?"

"Liam Ackman! Come out! Don’t scare me like this!"
