Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 259

Liam saw the flash of cunning light that shone through her eyes.

Her thin lips were curling up into a slight smile making him curious as to what the little woman had planned.

Anna raised the wine glass, looked around at the suited yet dirty-minded businessmen around the table, smiled, and said gently, "Thank you for your advice. I should really serve Mr. Ackman well, I didn't know this restaurant also belonged to the Ackman Group. Mr. Ackman’s business ventures are really wellspread throughout the city! And at such speed!"

Liam only just arrived in Johannes City, and he had already started extending his influence towards the different business sectors in the city. Did he plan on becoming the unrivaled leader of the business world?

Even though Anna was furious, she had to admit that since the day he returned, he had quickly risen to claim the top seat among the upper echelons of society.

Everyone in the room raised their glasses in a toast, each giving her their own piece of advice, to serve him well and make sure his wine glass was never empty. A s long as she served him well, he would repay her handsomely in tips.

Of course, Anna was glad to 'serve' him now. She poured him another glass of wine, filling his plate with delicious morsels of food, and said to him smilingly, "Mr. Ackman, enjoy your food and drink."

Liam glanced at her, the smile on his face vague and half-formed, "Since a beautiful lady asked me to, I can't say no."

All the men roared in laughter.

"I didn't know Mr. Ackman is such a gentleman!"

"Come, we shall have one more glass!"

The atmosphere in the room turned lively from the moment they noticed Liam actually liked women. The conversation blossomed, and everyone raised their voices in merry discussion.

As Liam quietly finished his food, Anna hurriedly refilled his empty plate and whispered to him, "The more the merrier! Nourish your body!"

He glanced at her through the corners of his eyes and continued eating his food quietly and elegantly.

Immediately, Anna attentively poured him another glass of wine, he didn't refuse, raised his glass, and took a sip.

The men looked on at their interactions, and felt the weird energy between the two of them, and started cracking jokes. 1 "If Mr. Ackman wants to after dinner is over, you can

take this girl out for some fun!"

The other men immediately agreed, "Exactly, exactly! G o and have some fun! Enjoy yourself!"

Liam slowly put down the fork and spoon in his hands. His neutral gaze sweeping across all of their faces, and finally landed on Anna.

"Have fun? Enjoy myself?"

In an instant, deadly silence enveloped the room, the atmosphere turned ice-cold, all of the men burying their heads in their bowls.

When everyone was secretly wishing the meal would end soon, Liam’s voice rang across the room again.

"Sure!"

They raised their heads in shock, staring at each other. With forced smiles on their tense faces, they nervously added in agreement, "Good, good! Let's all have fun together!"

They were confused, did Liam actually like women or not? If they went in the wrong direction, they would b e wasting their time and energy on a useless venture.

"Uhm Mr. Ackman... there's a pretty decent bar, they have anything you can think of. After dinner, let’s go there together..." One of the men said tentatively, purposely emphasizing the words 'anything you can think of', hinting that not just women, but men were also available.

Liam glanced towards Anna, his tone monotonous and flat, "Are they prettier than her?”

The room exploded in a cacophony of voices.

So, he did like women!

One of the men shouted, "Of course!"

Immediately, another voice shouted, "No,” and glared a t the first man, he rushed to correct himself, "Of course not!"

Everyone started sweating in panic, lowering their heads, hearts racing.

Anna glared harshly at Liam, cursing his perverted nature in her mind, but instead, he laughed.

"Alright, it seems like you don't know each other.

Should I introduce all of you?"
