Liam roared in fury; Anna hurriedly squeezed her eyes shut in fear.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was just curious, so I thought to ask you."
She was indeed very curious because everything that he did could not be explained logically at all.
Usually, companies decide whether to hire staff based on professional and technical considerations. Among the three parts of the assessment that Liam set, only the second portion which tested them on their survival skills was acceptable, the first and the third portion was about the service industry, finding a link between the two was indeed difficult.
"You're right! I used my influence to fulfill my private desires!" Flames of anger roared through the depths of his eyes, lighting them ablaze.
"Anna Hamilton, you are the first person who dared to talk back to me like this! You are also the first to go against me!"
"Even if I did use my power for personal gain, what can you do!"
Anna was speechless.
There was indeed nothing she could do, but she never thought her curiosity might indeed kill the cat, in this case, she was the unlucky cat.
"Did I indulge you too much, and now you can't even see reality!"
Liam stormed towards her, held her chin tightly, and forced her to look up at his handsome face, distorted with anger.
Anna was starting to grow agitated too, this man's emotions were volatile like an active volcano!
"I can see reality! I don't need you to indulge me!" She felt like she was talking to his nostrils.
She had finally stepped on the landmine that was Liam Ackman, and now he exploded.
"Anna Hamilton, I told you before, the fact that I slept with you, is an honor to you!" He said coldly, tone haughty and arrogant.
His naked disdain and contempt was the last straw.
"I don't think so! Liam Ackman, let me tell you, I feel humiliated for sleeping with you!"
His ice-cold gaze swept across her stubborn face, darkening till they were nothing but pools of coal.
"Anna Hamilton, what did you say?"
Inexplicably, she felt so helpless and indignant her eyes started to water, "Why? Why are you doing this to me? In your mind, am I so unbearable? What the hell a m I to you?!"
She shoved his large hands away, "I know! I know you don't like me! Since you don’t like it, why don't you let me go, why do you have to continue torturing me like this!"
She clutched her disheveled clothes to her body and shouted, "Are you happy? Does it satisfy your perverted need, to see me like this?"
"I already broke up with Bryan! I can’t fulfill your need for excitement anymore, why don't you just let me go!"
Faced with her torrent of questions, the flames of anger in the depths of his burned even brighter, the air around him turning icy cold.
"Do you really think that’s all there is to this?"
"What else is there!" it H
At her statement, he was rendered speechless.
What else is there? He didn't know himself.
He just knew he liked being with her, he had even grown to rely on her. He couldn't leave her side.
But the exact reason why, he didn't know, and he could find no rational explanation for his feelings.
"Then let me go! We'll live our own lives; you keep to yourself and I'll do the same!" Anna stood up, eyes cruel and determined.
Liam felt a torrent of flames burn through his chest, h e grabbed her stubborn chin once again, gazing at her pale and beautiful face, and said in a tone as cold as the depths of hell, "You want to keep your distance from me? Do you have the ability to do so?"
"It hurts, let go..."
Anna met his burning gaze stubbornly, her eyes starting to water.
Liam looked at her, biting her lip, trying to force her tears back into her eyes, and a bout of unbidden anxiety overtook him. He flung her away from him, as i f she burned him, and turned his back against her.
"Didn't I tell you, if you beg me, you don’t have to do any of this?"
