Chapter 625 Outsider
Chapter 625 Outsider
Ethan kindly set the table for Anna and ladled her a bowl of soup.
"You've been weak lately. Have some soup."
As Gemma devoured the chicken wing, she said vaguely.
"It doesn't matter what we eat as long as we can be full and happy. Am I right, Mommy?"
"Yes, you're right!"
"You're right about everything, my sweetie."
Anna and Ethan couldn't help laughing.
Ethan's eyes glittered with amusement, "Anna, you can only eat one chicken wing. The rest of them are all for Gemma."
"I'd be happy with just one." Anna couldn't wait to eat.
Gemma held the plate happily, "Wow! I'm so happy they are all mine!"
Anna and Ethan laughed again.
Anna took a bite of the wing, the delicious gravy running down her tongue and giving her an appetite.
Those two days of bland hospital food were more than she could bear.
Ethan gave Anna a piece of tissue and said gently.
"Slow down there. No one robbed you of it. I also made you cream mushroom soup, bolognese spaghetti, and salami pizza."
"Oh, so terribly kind of you! You're a great cook. It's delicious!" Anna happily champed it.
Seeing Anna and Ethan smile happily, Liam, who was standing outside the door, was very unhappy.
'It turned out that she would laugh so happily only when she was with Ethan.'
Gemma and Ethan were really close. When Gemma was full, she put down her fork and fell into Ethan's arms, rubbing her head against him.
And she said sweetly, "You're so kind, Daddy. You're the best dad in the world!"
"My daddy's the best and the most handsome. Right, Mommy?"
Anna nodded quickly, "Exactly. Gemma is right about everything."
Anna and Ethan penetrated what Gemma was thinking. She wanted the last piece of pizza.
"You are the most beautiful and lovely princess in the world, my little princess."
"Daddy..." Gemma stared at the pizza with greedy eyes.
Ethan and Anna couldn't bear to keep Gemma in suspense, so they gratified her.
Gemma smiled radiantly and tucked into pizza.
Anna shook her head, smiling, "This little foodie."
Ethan fondled Gemma's head, "You really like my cooking?"
Gemma nodded violently.
"Yes. I like your cooking very much, Daddy.
Everything is so tasty!"
Ethan smiled, "Well, as long as I have time later, I will cook for our little princess."
Gemma danced out of joy.
"Wow, that's great! I love you, Daddy!"
Ethan laughed, took Gemma in his arms, and kissed her little face hard.
Gemma began to giggle.
Anna looked at them with a happy smile on her face.
But there was a trace of sadness behind this smile.
Gemma didn't know that her biological father was Liam and that Ethan, whom she had always thought o f as her daddy, was not her biological father.
If Gemma knew the truth, she would be sad.
It tore Liam to see Gemma and Ethan so intimate.
Liam couldn't look at it anymore. He opened the door and went in.
Anna and Ethan were surprised.
'Isn't he gone?'
'Why is he back?'
The pleasant atmosphere immediately grew tense. The smile froze on Gemma's lips, and she stared at Liam in fear.
A warning touched Liam's cold eyes, "Anna, didn't I warn you it was time to rest?"
"You turned a deaf ear to my words again, didn't you?"
What a domineering tone!
It was as if Anna belonged to him and could only obey him.
The atmosphere crackled with tension.
No one spoke.
The room was filled with suffocating pressure.
After a long silence, Ethan got to his feet and slowly packed the things in the lunchbox.
Then, he looked at Liam gracefully with a smile and said drily.
"I appreciate you taking the time to visit my wife, Mr. Ackman. Thanks for your visit, Mr. Busy!"
Liam raised his eyebrow, and his handsome face was full of innate domineeringness, "Taking care of my woman is not a chore. It's time for the unimportant to
leave."
Liam's patience had been taxed to the limit.
The meeting of rivals in love was full of smoke of gunpowder.
One of them looked at the other one with a strong aura like a king. And there was a sense of menace behind his charming face.
The other handsome gentleman was like the prince in the painting, holding a sword closely beside the princess.
Anna was sandwiched between the two of them for a moment out of amazement.
'When Ethan arrived, Liam took care of his work as if h e hadn't seen it.'
'Why are they at each other's throats in an instant?'
Anna thought she heard sparks on the battlefield.
"Eh...Both of you go back. I'll stay here on my own." Anna managed a yawn.
Anna thought that since she couldn't handle the war, she might as well move the battlefield.
Besides, she was a patient. They would certainly give her face and not embarrass her.
Anna clearly overestimated Liam's emotional intelligence.
He didn't move a muscle.
Ethan was obviously unwilling to give in and stood still.
'Anna was mine! Why should I step aside when Liam shows up?'
Anna hesitated for a while and broke the deadlock.
"Eh... You guys...Let me rest, okay?"
Liam glared at Ethan, "You go first." Frost seemed to cover his handsome features.
Ethan smiled gracefully, and his eyes showed no fear," Why?"
"Because you're an outsider."
Ethan smiled again, "We have marriage certificates, M r. Ackman."
Liam's countenance darkened for a moment.
Gemma shivered with fear, hid behind Ethan, and looked at Liam in fear.
"Daddy, he looks horrible. I'm scared." Gemma whispered.
Liam saw Gemma pulling Ethan's finger stealthily like a cutie seeking her daddy's protection.
Liam's heart was torn.
He was about to rush to Gemma to bring her to himself. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
'I'm your daddy!'
'Not Ethan!'
Anna said quickly, "Take Gemma home, Ethan."
