Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 294

Anna stationed herself at home for a whole day.

She watched as Chloe and Nicole crept in and out of the house suspiciously, but had no idea what they were up to.

There were only three more days till she had to report for work at the Ackman Group.

These three days would be the last time she had so much free time.

She planned to take a short trip, have some fun and come home ready for battle.

She packed her clothes into her bag, intending to get a n early start to her day when unexpectedly, she caught sight of a man hiding in the patch of trees downstairs outside her window.

Not long after, Nicole crept in suspiciously.

Anna remembered her father was out on a business trip and didn’t come home last night.

She leaned on the window and stared in the direction of the small patch of trees.

After some time, Nicole emerged from the trees, her face pale as a sheet of paper.

Not long after, the middle-aged man walked out too. H e headed in the opposite direction and walked away.

Anna felt that the figure looked particularly familiar.

She frowned and flipped through her memories, finally she remembered that the middle-aged man was the one she met at the guardhouse.

Could it be the relative he was looking for, was Nicole?

That man, who could he be?

What was his relationship with Nicole?

Anna scrunched her brows in confusion.

She set an ear out, listening for any movement downstairs, then opened her room door and saw Nicole scurrying home in a panic.

She purposely looked towards the direction upstairs, a s if to check whether she was awake.

At that moment, Chloe yawned and walked down the stairs, stretching on the way down.

"Mom, is breakfast ready? The baby and I are hungry." Chloe whined.

Every morning, Chloe would intentionally put on this show.

It was as if she was afraid Anna would forget that she was pregnant and that the child belonged to Bryan.

"All you do is eat, why don’t you grow some brains? You're still dumb even after eating all those supplements?" Nicole said angrily.

Chloe froze, "What’s wrong? Mom, I didn’t do anything

to make you angry, did I?"

Nicole suppressed the anger in her belly, she knew she shouldn't vent her anger on her daughter, and said softly, "Follow me."

Anna watched as Nicole brought Chloe into her room.

Her brows tightened.

Nicole shut the door behind her, looked at the dazed Chloe, then her gaze drifted to her belly and sighed.

"Chloe, Bruce Walker came to see me again."

The color drained from Chloe’s face. She looked out the windows, "Where is he? Why is he here again so soon? Did he ask you for money?”

"My jewelry, I've appraised them. I even dug out the receipts. They're only worth a couple of hundred thousand at most.

I've already given him the most valuable ones! Now the ones I have left aren't worth very much.” Nicole sighed heavily.

Chloe was furious, slamming her palm on the table in anger, "He's nothing but a vampire, trying to suck us dry!"

Nicole felt like a cloud of murky air was lodged in her throat. No matter how hard she coughed, she couldn't get rid of it.

"That damn man! Why didn't he just die! Sooner or later, he'll suck us dry!” "Right, Chloe, how did your talk with Amelia go?” Nicole asked.
