Anna heard her supervisor’s infuriated roar and hurriedly pushed Liam away.“I’m dead, I’m dead, he’ll definitely hold this against me!”Anna hurriedly tucked her clothes into place, and charged out of the lounge without giving him a chance to stop her…Liam punched the sofa furiously. “Damn it!”He pulled at his collar furiously while panting deeply, his body still heated like a furnace. He hurriedly poured himself a glass of ice water and emptied it with a gulp.His stomach wasn’t feeling very well to begin with, but with the ice-cold cup of water, he started to feel sick.He punched in her number on his phone, “Come back right now!”She heard his enraged shout over the phone and shivered in fear, but considering the circumstances. She weighed her options and decided that staying on her supervisor’s good side was the wisest option.As they said, the devil’s lackeys are harder to deal with than Satan himself.She could think of a way to settle Liam and his raging fury and persuade him
Liam roared in fury; Anna hurriedly squeezed her eyes shut in fear.“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I was just curious, so I thought to ask you.”She was indeed very curious because everything that he did could not be explained logically at all.Usually, companies decide whether to hire staff based on professional and technical considerations. Among the three parts of the assessment that Liam set, only the second portion which tested them on their survival skills was acceptable, the first and the third portion was about the service industry, finding a link between the two was indeed difficult.“You’re right! I used my influence to fulfill my private desires!” Flames of anger roared through the depths of his eyes, lighting them ablaze. “Anna Hamilton, you are the first person who dared to talk back to me like this! You are also the first to go against me!”“Even if I did use my power for personal gain, what can you do!”“…”Anna was speechless.There was indeed nothing she could do, but she nev
Finch entered the room, and everyone stood in neat, orderly rows while holding their breaths.Nina grabbed Anna’s hand; she was shivering! “Anna, it’s time for the results, are you nervous?”Instead, Anna was indifferent now.“I’ve lost for sure, so I’m not afraid anymore.” “Anna? What are you saying? In the first assessment, even though you lost a lot of points, but you gained them all back in the second assessment. You did well today, our supervisor and the manager even complimented you!”Anna remained quiet, but she knew that following her quarrel with Liam, he would never let her off the hook so easily.She was definitely going to lose.Anna bowed her head, hands clasped together tightly. She felt agitated yet helpless.Finch’s eyes swept across the crowd, and said coldly, “This time, Ms. Wurst performed very well! Outstanding.” The crowd exploded.“It’s all over, this means Jennifer got first place! She can now join the Ackman Group.”“I thought Anna performed well? Why did she
“No!I don’t want to apologize to him!” Anna insisted.“I said my piece. If I went back to apologize to him now, I will only lose more of my pride. He will end up looking down and disrespecting me even further!”Nina shook her head, “Anna, you pay so much attention to how he feels about you because you care about him too much.”“If it was someone else, you wouldn’t be so determined."Anna lowered her head, her long eyelashes hiding the tears at the bottom of her eyes.“So what? I’m nothing but a pet to him.”“Anna, you must be clear, a master’s love towards his pet is also another form of love. Besides, you must decide whether you want to be his pet for a few days, or a lifetime.”Anna opened her mouth but swallowed the words.Of course, she wanted to be his forever.But… “No matter what, I will never apologize to him!”Anna still couldn’t forgo her pride and took a taxi home. When she arrived, she found that Chloe and Nicole were acting up again.“I heard the Ackman Group has very hi
Anna was fast asleep when she was rudely awakened by the ringing of her phone.She swiped open her phone and took a look, it was the school group. There were already more than a hundred unread messages with new ones popping up every second.“It’s already 1 am, aren’t these people tired? Don’t they need their sleep?” Anna rubbed her eyes sleepily, scrolling through her unread messages carelessly, “The wealthy brat is giving out money again! No wonder everyone is so excited.”Anna was still sleepy so she couldn’t read through all their messages. She only knew to click on the links that brought her to a website displaying the amount of money she won.With a click, she was shocked awake, all traces of sleep leaving her brain.“Oh my gosh! One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand…”“One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand…”Anna pointed at the endless number of 0s, and counted them one by one, finally she was sure, she won a 50,000-dollar lucky draw!52,000! Anna got so excited she did
“What?!”“The exam question is about sleeping?”Everyone was enveloped in a frenzy again.“What kind of topic is this?”“I don’t even need a bedㄧ I can just fall asleep on the floor!”“I can sleep while standing.”One student stood up and protested “Ms. Finch, let me ask you this, so what IS the main purpose of having all these assessments? Isn’t it too meaningless and demanding?”“I think the person who came out with the assessments is not normal!”The student asked out what everyone was thinking. They all looked at Olivia, waiting for a rational reason.Olivia frowned. Although she was still maintaining a stern stance, she did not know how to respond.Anna bit her lip and tried hard not to laugh.Of course, Liam Ackman is not normal!He acted like a dictator. One simple word or a single thought from him will force everyone into chaos.“He must have been a terrible king in the old times,” Anna Hamilton murmured.“Anna, who are you talking about?” Nina Scott asked quietly.“Nothing, no
Liam Ackman carried Anna Hamilton to the bedroom swiftly.Anna shut her eyes tightly, feeling awkward in his embrace. She kept asking herself, should she protect her virginity that she lost long ago and be a slave to Jennifer for a year in addition to paying her 50 million?Or she should just give up resisting, get the first place, and join the Ackman’s Group for her future?No matter which train of thought her brain took, the second choice seemed more rational and promising.However, she was unable to forgo her pride and succumb to him wholeheartedly.Liam gradually slowed his steps. Anna Hamilton opened her eyes curiously, and she met his dark eyes….His eyes were cold and emotionless, unexpectedly empty of sexual desire. This stunned her.Liam stood beside the bed, still holding her in his arms. He did not say anything.Anna was also quiet while waiting in his embrace.After a while, she could not stop herself and asked carefully, “Why did you stop?”“Do you want me to continue?” H
Anna slept soundly yesterday. She hadn’t had such a good sleep for a long time.Were she not in the middle of a test, she would have continued sleeping.She raised herself from the bed forcefully, but the person beside her was long gone.“He left.”She sighed, feeling down for no reason.Does he not sleep at all? Every time he would go to sleep in the wee hours of the morning but still wake up before her.She wrapped the blankets tightly around her body. Suddenly she smelled something like the smoke from burning cigarettes. She quickly went to the living room to check.As she expected!He was in the living room.She stood near the bedroom door, her eyes squinting to look at the window. Liam was there smoking quietly, as he stood facing the bright sun.The morning sun was bright. The sunlight brightened up his face and their surroundings, making everything clear including his eyes.She wanted to approach him, but at the same time, she did not want to break the peaceful bubble that envel
