"Anna, if you don't come, everyone will believe we are quarreling, but it's not true, right? Don't give someone a chance to divide us."
Anna felt disappointed hearing this and smiled coldly.
Grandma Dawson was threatening her.
If she didn't go, everyone would know that they were a t odds. Grandma Dawson was the elder and she was the junior...
And if Anna refused her because of the conflicts between their companies, someone would attack her that she didn't respect her elder.
'Mrs. Dawson is really shrewd.'
Anna smiled. Her eyes were cold and her face clouded.
She had been sincere with Grandma Dawson before, though partly for her own benefit.
Now Grandma Dawson was scheming against her for the Dawson Group, which made her uncomfortable.
Anna felt hurt.
She took the Dawsons as her friends, but Grandma Dawson was threatening her to protect the interests of the Dawson family.
She decided to keep away from them from now on.
The next night, Anna went to the Dawson family mansion.
Grandma Dawson smiled in delight when she saw Anna, the skin around her eyes wrinkling.
Grandma Dawson leaned on an exquisite mahogany cane, which was carved with a dragon and was a symbol of her authority and dignity.
There were also cloud patterns on her cane, which was an emblem of good fortune.
Grandma Dawson hoped this dinner would be a success and the Dawson Group could make up with the Ackman Skyhigh Group and the Lincoln Group.
Anna gracefully walked up to Grandma Dawson, who excitedly grabbed her hand and patted it.
"Anna, you've come. I miss you so much! Let me look a t you."
Anna wore a light blue dress that showed off her lovely figure.
She looked like a fairy with her long, thick blond hair tied up in a ribbon.
She was as noble as a princess, elegant and charming.
Grandma Dawson watched her carefully. This old lady was more stooped than before.
Anna felt sad for her.
She sighed, "Grandma, you look better than before, but you still need more rest."
"Alas, I'm old and not as fit as I used to be. I'll be content if you can come and see me when you're free! Come on. Let's have dinner." Grandma Dawson took Anna's hand and slowly walked to the dining room.
The door was pushed open and Anna saw Liam in his seat.
Liam was dressed in a black suit and a white shirt open at the neck. He seemed a dignified gentleman and not as distant as usual.
Anna stepped towards him uncontrollably.
In the light, she saw his cold, handsome face.
She turned her gaze from him. Then she glanced around politely and said hello to the Dawsons.
