Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 324

Nicole whispered in her daughter's ear for a few minutes, and Chloe started laughing happily.

"He-he, and I was worried once she entered the Ackman Group, her position in your father’s heart would rise. If this incident sees the light, she will be enveloped in scandal.”

Hatred shone in Nicole's eyes.

"By then only your father, the rumors about her in society and amongst the Dawsons would be enough to drown her."

"The past few days, your father has been praising the little bitch non-stop, complimenting her for winning first place and entering the Ackman Group."

"Hmph, who could guess his daughter would commit such a taboo, we'll see how he'll praise her after news spreads!"

Chloe smiled gleefully and scoffed, "Last night she was throwing her relationship in my face, saying they can be together because they’re not related by blood. We'll see how long more she can stay this arrogant!"

"Hah, blood relations? To rich families like this, pride and honor are what they care about. Once rumors like this start circulating, even if it can't affect people of such caliber like Liam, for small fry like Anna, she’ll b e kicked out of the game in no time." "Mom, so what should we do now? Should we go to the Dawsons and tell Grandma or..."

"You fool, Grandma Dawson is Mr. Ackman's aunt, besides, she feels guilty towards Anna because of Bryan, she wouldn’t do anything to her."

At the sound of this, Chloe slumped like a deflated balloon, "Then what can we do? This won't do, that can't work, we can’t watch on as she marries Mr. Ackman and becomes my aunt, can we?"

Nicole’s eyes shone with a calculative gaze, and said i n a low voice, "Don't worry, allow me some time to ponder this issue, it'll be bad if we anger Mr. Ackman accidentally." 1

"Right, Mom, yesterday Anna said something weird to me, I can't for the life of me figure out what she's trying to say, but I think there's a hidden message in her words."

Chloe repeated Anna's words to her mother. Nicole fell onto the bed, face pale as a ghost, panicked and distraught.

"What's wrong, Mom?"

"It's bad, how could she know where the bracelet is?"

"I thought she was just bluffing! She said she wanted t o go tell on me to Grandma, but she didn’t.”

"I thought she was most probably just trying to scare m e! So she really knows.”

Nicole sighed, "I kept it in a safe deposit box in a bank and bought an insurance policy for it, so we can get some compensation.

The money is coming into my hands soon, but now that she knows, if she tells Grandma Dawson, my plan will fall out, the insurance premium will go down the drain too."

Chloe punched the blankets in anger and said with hatred in her voice, "That damn bitch, is she trying to kill us? So what if she knows? Grandma didn’t blame me the last time, this time she won't too. I have a free pass in my belly."

"But what a pity, if we got the compensation we could use it to get that stupid gambler to shut up, then we wouldn’t have to worry about him every day."

Nicole felt her heart bleeding, most of the money from her jewelry sale went to the insurance premium, she thought it was a fool-proof plan but then the little bitch had to find out.

She was busy with school and her practical assessments, where did she find the time to investigate?

Could it be...

At the thought of the all-powerful, high, and mighty man, a cold sweat broke out over Nicole’s forehead.

How could she be so stupid, putting it in the bank and try to commit insurance fraud? She was practically

exposing herself.

She had to think of another way soon, to put this unfortunate incident behind her.

"Mom, what are you thinking about? I’m asking you a question." Chloe pushed her shoulders lightly.

"What did you say?”

"I asked you how are we going to give the money to the gambler, our seven days are almost up, if we can’t gather five million dollars, what should we do if he goes crazy and causes a scene in front of Daddy?” 1

A vicious gleam shone in her eyes, "Don't worry, I'll make it so he can't appear for the moment..."

Every city had a red-light district.
