Heavy rain followed by a loud thunderclap.Anna was having trouble sleeping soundly. The booming thunder woke her up. After that, she found that she could not go back to sleep.Liam had not been contacting her those few days. ‘Did he forget about me?‘Maybe…’‘He has a new woman in mind?’Anna shook her head, shaking away the nonsense in her head.She was glad that he did not bother her. It would be even better if their relationship could come to a clean break! Otherwise, the ending would be bad for both of them if they had kept up this entanglement!Anna grabbed her phone. The soft lumination of her phone screen shone onto her bare face in the dark, making it seem as though her face was glowing. She clicked into her university group chat, wondering if that quirky Charles had done anything weird in the chat again.She opened the chat to be met with the students having a discussion about her.[Guys, why do you think Geeky Anna hasn’t been appearing these few days?][You’re t
After taking back the cash prizes, Charles started spamming Anna’s private chat again. Anna’s phone could not stop buzzing.[Why won’t you reply?][Are you mute?][Are you blind?][Is everything above your neck just there for show?][Is everything below your neck also just for show?][You’re still awake? Are you a pig?]…Anna was thrown into a daze by all his insults.‘Is there seriously something wrong with his head?’Anna kept trying to block her, yet his account seemed to have some special functions. No matter how many times she blocked her, his messages still got through to her phone, making it buzz continuously.Anna took a deep breath to calm herself down.She yearned to reply to his messages to ask him who he was, but in the end, she refrained.First of all, that person had popped into her friends list out of nowhere.Secondly, he did not have any information on his profile, indicating it was a new account.Thirdly, he knew her name, so he could be a student at h
Anna managed to reach the hospital before noon. However, she was in no rush to enter. She had no idea why she even went. She wondered what Liam was up to this time.Could he be using her lie about her blindness to force her into doing things she did not want to do?That huge pervert had always been yearning for her. Clearly, he had no good intentions this time around either.Anna held on to the black wristband on her wrist. As she fumed internally about Liam’s intentions, her lips subconsciously curled upward.“Anna, what are you smiling about?” Chloe questioned as she glanced at Anna.Anna was staggered. “I was smiling?”“Yeah. So joyously too. It was as if you were thinking about your lover. The kind of smile that would make someone’s imagination run wild.” An opportunistic glow appeared in Chloe’s eyes. She drew closer to Anna and whispered, “Anna, there’s something not right here! Are you having an affair?”Anna’s eyes turned dark. “Is that any of your business?”“Of cour
The lights in the examination room were dim. There was also a series of blackout curtains within the room. When Anna first entered the room, she did not notice the man sitting on the furthest chair in the room at all.After she found out that Liam was there, she could not be at ease at all.“Attracting ghosts? Ms. Hamilton, did you see something you weren’t supposed to?” Micheal asked curiously.Anna let out a nervous laugh. “Dr. Hart, you must be joking. I can’t see anything right now, so how can I see something I’m not supposed to?”Micheal nodded. “I thought you had regained your vision.”Anna felt her surroundings with her hands, just like a blind person would. “I think I might be hallucinating. My mind seems to be easily filled with all sorts of hallucinations these days.”“Those things are all conjured up by your mind. You could only see those hallucinations if you’re constantly thinking about it in your head,” Micheal explained.Anna hit the table. “Dr. Hart, that makes s
Anna widened her beautiful eyes and stared at Liam’s large hand that was sliding down his own body.Just watching his movement had her body heat up. Her throat immediately turned dry.“Looks like you really want to see it.” Liam dragged his words out. A look of amusement filled his ink-black eyes.Anna felt her chest tighten. She abruptly snapped out of her daze and covered her eyes, screaming.“Huh? How could you be so perverted!”Liam was still grinning. He leaned in closer to Anna and moved her hands away from her face.“Don’t be shy. It’s not like you’ve never seen one before.”“You…!” Anna ground her teeth in fury.“Last time, I let you off the hook because you were feeling unwell. Now that you’re all healed up, I do not need to pardon you anymore,” Liam whispered. She could feel the heat of his scalding breath.Anna was flustered. Her heart thumped violently. She ground her teeth and said, “You really are…”Anna could not even think of any adjectives to describe him!H
It was a modern romance movie with an artistic touch. Most of the scenes were dragged out but with beautiful cinematography. The male and female lead loved each other but could not be together—that was the tear-jerking plot behind the entire movie. Anna subtly glanced at the man sitting beside her. She did not expect Liam to bring her to the movies—especially not this kind of movie. Who knew a brash and simple man like him would watch an emotional film about painful love…Anna shook away the goosebumps on her body. No matter how she looked at it, this scene did not suit him at all.Even so, Liam did not say a word. In fact, he seemed to be pretty absorbed in the movie, leaving Anna with no choice but to force herself to watch. Nonetheless, her mind had wandered off to a place far away…Halfway through the movie, they heard some girls whispering, “What’s wrong with people nowadays? How could they kiss like that in a theater? Look, even her dress has been lifted.”“Tut-tut, do you
“Let’s try it.” Liam put his arm around Anna’s shoulders and brought her into the car.“You can try it with yourself, you pervert!” Anna tossed her hands around frantically.Liam chuckled playfully. His eyes were as bright as stars. “What are you afraid of?”“This has nothing to do with fear! It’s about… It’s about you being a perverted bastard! Let go of me!” Anna pushed against his chest, grinding her teeth in rage.Liam kept laughing. Exasperated, Anna shook her little fist. “You perv. You perv!”Liam stopped toying with her. It turned out that he only leaned onto her to buckle her seatbelt.Anna’s face had once again flushed red. She did not dare to even glance at him.Liam got into the car and drove off.On the road, Anna was very quiet. She stared blankly out the window.It began to drizzle again. Rain pattered onto the car window, turning the scenery outside gloomy.The somber weather reflected Anna’s emotions perfectly.Liam took a glance at her. He suddenly pitied h
Every year, there would be a business networking event hosted in Johannes City attended by famed businessmen from all sorts of industries.As the person in charge of the Lincoln Group, Daniel naturally received an invitation as well.That year, the attendee that caught the most attention was none other than the CEO of Ackman Group, Liam Ackman. Anyone would take this opportunity to establish a connection with the Ackman family.Daniel saw a gap and seized the opportunity to walk up to Liam with a glass of wine. “Mr. Ackman, how is Madam Dawson doing lately?”Daniel intended to use his relationship with Grandmother Dawson to get closer to Liam. Nonetheless, Liam’s attitude remained cold and nonchalant.“She’s doing alright. Thank you for the concern, Mr. Hamilton.”Daniel immediately put on a smile. “That’s great! Madam Dawson has always treated Anna with kindness. When Anna marries into that family, she can take good care of Grandmother Dawson.”Liam raised his brows. He gazed a
Chapter 860 The EndThree years went by. Liam held a press conference and announced earth-shattering news."All my properties will be transferred to Anna." This news made a sensation in the whole city, which shocked Anna."I object it."After Anna got off work and went back home, she walked into Liam's study, emphasizing every word. "I won't accept a single cent of your properties! My own company is very big now. I don’t lack money."Liam frowned unhappily and said coldly, "This is my love for you." "I only need this one." Anna held tightly the diamond necklace that Liam asked her to design, a satisfied expression. Liam looked at the diamond necklace and smiled."This is yours. This is designed for my beloved woman."Anna blushed and glared at him, "You kept it a secret at that time. You are so cunning!""I want to give you a surprise!" Liam gently held Anna's shoulder and was about to kiss her when a clear voice rang at the door."Mommy, Daddy, what are you doing?
Chapter 859 Will Be HappyUp to now, Sherry still remembered that Michael was totally drunk and called Nina's name for the whole night after he proposed to Tania successfully.Seeing that Michael was so sad, Sherry and Michael's father were worried about Michael.Sherry and Michael's father discussed it in private. Since Michael was so sad, they would better fulfill his wish."It doesn't matter for us to publicize what happened in the past. Your father and I don't care about it as long as you are happy."Sherry stroked Michael's cheek gently. Her tone was filled with love. "You're our only child... We were worried that you would estrange from us if you knew that we were not your birth parents, but you have known about it for many years. You are still so filial, obedient and excellent. We are very glad...""I'm Nina's aunt. Of course, I hope she will be happy. So do you, my dear son.""But what outsiders will say about Dad and you?" Michael was reluctant to publicize these things
Chapter 858 Pretending to Be Happy All the Time"I know that you love Michael very much. Since you love each other deeply, why do you separate because of misunderstanding?"Tania looked at Nina with tears in her eyes.Nina took a step back in shock, "What are you saying? Impossible!""You are no blood relations at all... Maybe I misheard. But that's what I heard at that time. If you don't believe me, you can ask him about it.""Michael was worried that if the news that he wasn't the biological child of the Hart family was exposed, it would affect Dean Hart's reputation... That's why he didn't dare to mention it. He could only separate from you and hide his secret..."Tania choked while saying, "Actually, I really love Michael. I really don't want to be separated from him... Am I stupid? If I pretend that I don't know, could I be with him?"Tania's eyes were red from crying, "But if I don't tell you about it, I would be really sad. I think I've done something really bad...""I
Chapter 857 I Have No Place in His Heart By the time Ethan knew about it, Anna had been sent to hospital by Liam. Anna choked smoke and was in a coma now. Fortunately, she was sent to the hospital in time, and she was fine now. When Ethan visited Anna at the hospital, Liam was feeding Anna chicken noodle soup. "The doctor said you have to eat something lighter." Liam said gently. Anna was unhappy and pouted, while she still looked sexy and charming with her eyes dropping. "That doesn't mean excessively light food, right?" "Well, chicken noodle soup does have very little chicken and noodles. If you are recovering well today, I will put more chicken and noodles in the soup for you tomorrow." Liam took the spoon, gently blew at it and carefully placed it before Anna's lips. Anna had a mouthful, and then her eyes swept over the small table next to her. Liam immediately sent some appetizer to Anna's mouth, "This is also what I had the cook prepare specially for you, I
Chapter 856 It's My FaultThe yellow-haired man was coaxed to drink a few glasses of red wine and finally got tired of waiting.Seeing him walk towards her slowly, Anna backed away in fear."Can you wait a minute? I want to know who wants to ruin me. Can you tell me?"The yellow-haired man sneered. He grabbed her shoulder and dragged her towards the round bed behind him."I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!"Anna was pinned down by the man.At that moment, Anna's heart was beating faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest."Let go of me. You hurt me..." Anna tried hard to struggle."Can you be gentle? I'm so painful..."The yellow-haired man was about to kiss her neck when Anna kicked him away with all her might.The yellow-haired man's eyes widened with pain, "How dare you kick me? You've been lying to me! Fuck!""Don't touch me." Anna widened her eyes in horror and in a cold sweat."Aren't you afraid I'll get back at you when I get out?"Th
Chapter 855 You Know How to Have Fun!Anna was so terrified that she hurriedly put her arms around her chest to protect herself.Someone started tearing her clothes. She kept shaking her head and shouted, "Let go of me... If you dare to touch me, I will make you pay a heavy price...""Ah...""Aren't you afraid that Liam will kill you? If he finds me, he won't let you guys go!!!""You'd better let me go now!""Don't scare me. Don't you think I really dare to touch you?" The yellow-haired man had someone bring the pills, "Make her take the pills quickly. Then she'll listen to me."...Liam was searching for Anna anxiously."Have you found Anna?" Liam was driving while calling James."Not yet! There's no surveillance near the park!" James was also distressed.Liam had an extremely cold face, with a crazy and tyrannical aura around him. He said, "No matter what method we use, we must find her now!""Okay! Mr. Ackman!"James hurriedly ordered people in the whole city to search
Chapter 854 I Have Got Nothing But MoneyAnna huddled herself up in a corner.She could only feel safe in this way.There was another woman at the place. The man with yellow hair was forcing the woman to shoot an adult movie.The woman was struggling and crying like crazy. Suddenly she fell to her knees in front of the yellow-haired man, crying and begging him."No, I can't do this... I really can't.... Please let me go... At least we had been together. You can't do this to me..."The yellow-haired man kicked her ruthlessly, and the woman was lying on the ground in pain and couldn't get up."Bah! I slept with you for one night, and you want to bargain with me? Get the hell into the room and do your job!"The woman huddled herself up, and she cried more desperately.The man apparently lost his patience. He picked up an iron bar and struck the woman cruelly.In an instant, the woman's shrill cries and pleas resounded throughout the empty and dilapidated factory.Anna shuddered
Chapter 853 Why Didn't He Come to Rescue Her?Anna's mouth was covered, and then she was put into a sack."Let go of me!" She struggled violently but was dazed by the people behind her with Ecstasy.When she opened her eyes again, she found it was so dark that she couldn't see the surroundings clearly."Are you awake? Get ready for work."Suddenly a man with yellow hair walked up to Anna and threw a book into her arms.Anna unconsciously took it and looked around nervously.The place seemed to be an abandoned and shabby factory."Where is it?""This is our studio." The yellow-haired man stared closely at Anna and smirked.Anna looked around defensively. She found some men in the corner were seriously reading the book in their hands.Anna also looked down at the book in her hand. Surprisingly, it was a script!But she had a bad feeling that something terrible was going to happen."I didn't promise to work with any studio." Anna was uncomfortable for the yellow-haired man ke
Chapter 852 Why Isn't Mommy at Home?A complete family... Anna almost stayed up all night because of what Gemma said. Who were the members of her family?She had thought that her family members were her father, her mother, Nicole, Chloe, her grandpa, Grandmother Dawson, Bryan...And Liam. Finally, it was Ethan.These people all appeared in her life, but then they all gradually separated from her.Now that the whole Hamilton family left only Gemma and her.Who else could be called her family?She slowly picked up the marriage certificate with Liam. Both she and Liam looked strange in the photo on the marriage certificate. In this photo, her expression looked like she was forced, much like the one on their first marriage certificate about four years ago.Their story seemed to have been repeated all over again.A few years later, they were back where they started.Anna touched the photo gently, she could clearly feel that Liam had been taking good care of her in recent d
