Chapter 197 Don’t You Feel That It's Bad Luck?
When Liam had arrived according to the map, Anna was already gone.
He then followed Anna's route all the way back to her home. He only drove off when he saw Anna staggering into her house with the servant's support.
He lowered his head to his phone and saw the numerous angry messages Anna had sent. He wanted t o delete them but in the end, he just left them.
It seemed quite interesting to leave it on his phone.
It could be used as evidence to reprimand Anna in the future!
Daniel stopped Anna and nagged her when she drunkenly entered the house.
"I can't believe you went drinking and came back so late! This is inappropriate behavior!"
Anna lay against Lisa’s shoulder and did not even glance at Daniel. "I went out drinking and eating with Mr. Ackman, do I need to report that to you as well?"
"Should I tell Mr. Ackman while we're eating that my father doesn't allow me to go out and come back late? Mr. Ackman, quickly finish eating, I need to go home!" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Daniel was left speechless and a smile immediately appeared on his face. "Haha, so you went out with Mr. Ackman.”
"I'm going to be 23 years old! I’m already an adult! I know what I'm doing! Are you being strict, or are you restricting my freedom!"
Daniel stared at Anna angrily. "How can you talk to your father like this?"
Lisa was worried that Daniel might get angry and quickly said, "Sir, Miss Anna is drunk, I should help her back up to rest."
"I'm worried about your eyes. How are you supposed t o recover as soon as possible in such a state!?" Daniel held back his rage and tried to speak calmly.
"My eyes will recover, I definitely won't stay like this forever!" Anna finished her words and went back to her room with Lisa's support.
After a night of tossing and turning, Anna finally fell asleep when the sky was slowly turning bright.
If not for the constant noises from her phone, she could have slept till the afternoon.
"Who is it?"
Anna impatiently answered the phone.
It was really rude to interrupt someone’s dreams.
A cold, emotionless voice came from the other end of the line. "Anna, do you think you can just scold me like that? Shouldn’t you apologize or explain yourself?"
Anna was suddenly jolted wide awake.
"Li... Liam!”
She scratched her head which was in pain from a hangover and vaguely remembered that she scolded Liam a b*stard on the streets like a mad person. She could not help but smack her head repeatedly in chagrin.
Was she mad?
Stupid?
How could she have done such an embarrassing thing?
"I'll give you a minute to explain." Liam waited patiently for Anna's compliant apology but never did h e think that she would hang up the next second.
"Anna Hamilton, you’ve gotten even more daring!”
Anna had already turned off her phone when he called her back.
Liam could not help but curl his lips and smiled.
"Now you know fear. You were so fearless with your drunken rambling before, even louder than anyone else!"
He went through the messages Anna had sent to him last night on his phone and his lips could not refrain from curving up even more.
James froze at the door with some documents in hand. He could not help but shudder at the sight of Liam’s smile.
What was the young master looking at? What gave him this cheerful grin?
After a long time, Liam finally noticed James and put down his phone. He dropped the smile on his face and put on a stern look.
"What’s the matter?”
"The contract has been drawn up, shall we begin the meeting now?" James said hastily with respect.
"Yes, begin the meeting immediately."
Liam kept his phone and went up toward the meeting room.
Anna tossed and turned on her bed for quite a while but still, she could not calm herself.
"Oh dear, am I stupid? I can't believe I did such a humiliating thing!”
"Damn it! I must have drunk myself silly!”
Anna repeatedly smacked herself on the head.
Anna finished bathing and wanted to go downstairs to eat, and just as she got down, she saw Chloe sulking with crossed arms, waiting to confront her.
Anna glanced around the living room and saw many wedding dresses on mannequins all over the living room.
Chloe noticed that Anna had come down and raised her voice and said, "Look at all this useless stuff, they even took up the entire coatroom! Do you think we have a lot of space at home?"
Anna chuckled. "Aren’t you going to get married soon? You won't be using your coatroom and the gym anymore so I'll put these wedding dresses there."
Chloe slowly stood up from the sofa. "What did you say? You want to take up my space!"
"You won't be living here once you're married anyway."
"I'm just getting married, I'll still come back here to stay! I'm still part of this family, how could you take u p my space!?" Chloe glared at Anna with unbridled rage.
Anna smiled and pretended like she did not see Chloe's expression. She turned her ear toward Chloe.
"You're still coming back to stay even after getting married? Could it be that you’re worried you’ll get kicked out of the Dawson family one day?"
"Anna! You think you're tough now that you have Mr. Ackman behind your back, do you!?" Chloe gritted her teeth.
Anna gently raised her beautiful face. "I've always been the young lady of this house, I don’t need anyone to support my back! Last time I kept quiet because I felt that there was no need for a family to argue against one another."
Anna continued, "But it would seem that you no longer consider me as part of your family, then I do not need t o care for these so-called familial bonds anymore!"
Chloe rushed forward and shouted with an earpiercing voice, "You pretended to be innocent and weak, your true colors are finally revealed now that you’ve garnered enough sympathy! It's like I said, how could you be so honest!? How could you be so kind to give me and Bryan your blessings!? Your true goal was to finally separate us!"
Anna could not stand it and covered her ears. "Don’t say such horrible things! Your matter with Bryan isn't worth my time! You may think it's glorious, but to me, it's filthy, simply disgusting.”
Anna moved past Chloe and said to the servants, "Tidy up the storeroom and place these wedding dresses inside! Be careful, all of them are really expensive."
All the servants hastily started working respectfully.
Chloe exclaimed loudly, "Is my supplement in the kitchen ready yet? Is the chicken soup I want to eat tonight boiled? And also the orange juice that I want t o drink now, is it being freshly squeezed?
All of you have time to do other things, do you not want to work here anymore?"
The servants were in a dilemma, they looked toward Anna with distraught.
Chloe was the most important person in the house as she was pregnant, no one dared to offend her.
Anna smiled. "Chloe, prenatal education is important.
You're so sly and stubborn now, aren't you worried that your child would be as sly and stubborn as you?"
"Anna, how dare you curse my child!"
"Don’t say it like that! These wedding dresses were gifted by Mr. Ackman, even Dad doesn't dare neglect them, and yet you dare get in the way? Chloe, have some sense of propriety, haven't you learned that by now?"
Chloe gasped in anger. She dared not offend Liam, she was also worried that Anna would say bad things about her to Liam so she had to restrain herself.
"Anna, don’t you feel that it’s bad luck to have so many wedding dresses but no one to marry?"
"These wedding dresses are so beautiful, why would it be bad luck? Rather I’m worried that someone might get jealous when they want to wear it but are unable t o!" Anna smiled faintly.
