Liam's face was extremely gloomy.
However, Gemma was not afraid of him. Maybe it was because Ethan was there and she felt safe. Gemma clung to her mother tightly and shouted, "No one can hurt my mommy! Daddy beat him! Beat him! He's a bad guy!"
Instantly, Liam felt his heart was broken.
Looking at Gemma's furious look, Liam felt a faint pain in his heart.
Did his own daughter hate him so much?
How could he mitigate their relationship in the future?
Suddenly he felt some jealousy towards Ethan.
Gemma was his own daughter, but she was so protective and defensive of Ethan, who was not related to her at all!
It looked like he had to take more action to warm up his relationship with his daughter!
Liam cast a cold glance at Anna and the look on her face was so angry that she seemed to want to kill him.
Then he looked down at Gemma, who tightened up her little face, with a righteous look in her eyes. His voice couldn't help but turn sterner, "Ethan, you have n o business here between me and my daughter."
He hated it so much to see the three of them united against himself as a family.
"I'm not your daughter! This is my daddy! I'm his daughter!" Gemma pointed at Ethan.
Liam let out a cold sneer, one side of his thin lips hooked up, with a hint of disdain, "He's not your daddy. I'm your daddy."
"Liam, shut up!" Anna was furious.
"Mommy, why did this bad guy say I was his daughter? Why?" Gemma looked up at Anna.
"No, he's not! He's lying!" Anna hurriedly explained to Gemma, and then she said to Ethan, "Ethan, please take Gemma out first. I need to talk to him."
"Anna!"
Obviously, Ethan didn't agree with her request.
His slender, upright figure was standing in front of Anna all the time, separating her and Liam.
"Anna, let's go! There's nothing you need to talk with him!"
"This is between me and Anna. It has nothing to do with you. You are just an outsider!" Liam raised his eyebrows coldly and his deep eyes were dark with rage.
He was glad to have a chance to be alone with Anna.
Indeed, it was time for them to have a serious talk.
If sneaking Gemma away got Anna talk to him alone, i t was not a complete failure.
Ethan felt as if a knife had been stabbed into his heart. His face also turned pale.
But since Anna insisted, he didn't want to make it difficult for her.
Ethan picked up Gemma in his arms and walked out.
Liam didn't stop him. He knew clearly that if he stopped Ethan then, Gemma would grow more disgusted with him.
Liam dismissed the maids around him.
Only he and Anna were in the living room.
They stood there, facing each other. There was a sense of awkwardness in the air.
Slowly, Liam approached Anna, but she stepped back subconsciously.
"There is no other people here. Let's be straight." Liam spoke first.
"Since you want me to be straight, I'll be straight! Stay away from me and Gemma!"
"Do you want me to tell everything that happened between us in front of Gemma?" Liam stopped his steps, a cold glare flashing across his narrow eyes.
