Chapter 388:You Can Choose Not to Read It"Liam, can you not always say these inexplicable words? You know I have nothing with Mr. Collins."She really didn't understand, where did his hostility come from?The last time he misunderstood them. But this time obviously Ethan just helped her. How could he say such words? She really did not know what was wrong with him.Ethan narrowed his eyes and looked deeply at her. He had an impulse to strangle her to death.Ethan appeared here, just simply to ask about the design?He didn't believe it at all!She didn't know how James did his job. After so long, he found nothing more than that Ethan was the president of an advertising company that had just been founded and had just returned from abroad with a double master's degree.Liam had a keen intuition that there must be some kind of connection between Ethan and Anna.Otherwise, Ethan would not always find excuses to approach her.But it seemed that Anna didn't know him before.What exactly is th
"Is it true... what it says? It says that Nina is... She is..."Liam nodded. "It should be true.""But how is this possible? This is so... creepy!"Anna never thought something like this would happen.It was like a plot in a movie, so surprising and shocking.Anna didn't know how Nina would react when she found it out.‘Maybe it was destiny! God let them meet in this way, get to know each other, and even fall in love with each other.’‘However, in fact, God made a joke on them.’‘This, I think, is what people call the trajectory of fate’In fact, even Liam was stunned when he got the result of the investigation.Then, he was grieving for Michael silently in his heart for a moment.Liam rarely got emotional over anything.But this time, what happened with Michael and Nina was so dramatic, so unreal, and yet it actually happened in real life.Anna and Liam both turned their eyes to Michael at the same time. At that moment, there was deep concern and sympathy in their eyes.
The moment Anna arrived at the office the next day, she saw Nina sitting sullenly at her desk and staring vacantly at the computer.Anna walked over and stood behind Nina, looking at the unfinished design on the computer screen."What's wrong? Is there a problem? Let me take a look."Nina dully moved away and leaned on the desk, gazing vacantly at Anna, who was keyboarding.After a few minutes, Anna tilted her head and smiled at Nina."It's done! You can daydream and rest this morning."Nina glanced at the computer and wore a faint smile."This is such a difficult problem, but you solved it so quickly. Anna, you are the best."Anna rubbed Nina's head and said, "After all, my work is not busy at all. Any problems, you can just come to me. I will help you solve it."Nina nodded. "Anna, you are so kind to me."Nina cupped her face in her hands and looked at the prickly pear on her desk. "He once said that I could feel free to ask you for help if I worked as a designer in the com
Chapter 391. Don't Get EmotionalArriving at the restaurant.Nina was still distracted and sullen.Anna pinched her cheeks, "Alright! Let's fill up our stomachs first."Anna ordered a table full of dishes, "Let's celebrate today. We're all officially employed at Ackman Skyhigh Group."Anna raised her glass, and Nina followed suit with a lack of interest.All she wanted to do now was to go back to the hospital and find Michael.To tell him that she regretted it.She really wasn't in the mood to eat now, but seeing Anna's high spirits, she was too embarrassed to spoil the fun.Anna took a sip of wine and put down her glass, ''Look! It's more comfortable to go back to the old place. Familiar environment, familiar boss and familiar campus atmosphere were much better than those moralistic and hypocritical faces in the company.""Especially the signature dish here. I really can't get enough of it. Nina, this steak is your favorite. Have some more."Anna kept trying to enliven the a
Anna told Nina the story she knew about Nina's family."Back then your father and your mother fell in love, but because your grandmother's family, the Baker family, was in trouble and declared bankrupt. So your father abandoned your mother."" At that time your mother was pregnant, and she hoped that your father would save their relationship for her pregnancy""But your father was so determined that he not only forced your mother to abort the baby, but he married his current wife quickly. That was a family marriage.""Your mother was heartbroken. Although the Baker family was bankrupt, it is still an eminent family of intellectuals. They are absolutely not allowed to get pregnant before getting married. They also forced your mother to have an abortion.""Your mom had no choice. She escaped from the family several times, but she was caught back. Later she threatened the Baker family with her life and only then could your grandfather not bear to force her to death, so he broke off the fa
Anna walked along the sidewalk by the campus. It was a familiar path. On both sides of the road, there were grand oak trees.The streetlamps on the sides shed a dim light, stretching her shadow.These familiar scenes caused a sense of sorrow in her heart.Now she had already started to work. A few days later, it would be the graduation ceremony, and Anna would return to the campus to attend the ceremony. That would be a final farewell to her campus life.Back when she was in school, Anna was regarded as one of those diligent and smart students, and many people resumed her as a dull girl.Look at her now! Wearing a fit professional outfit, getting rid of her black frame glasses, taking off her baggy jeans and white shirt, and wearing high heels instead of flats, Anna really felt like she was living another life now.Anna secretly wished she could go back to a few years ago when she was happy and had no worries on her mind. But those days are gone, for good.On such a pleasant eve
Chapter 394 What Are You Going to Do?Bruce took the phone and thought about it, "No! I can not give you the phone, in case you call the police.""Do you want money? Why should I call the police? I am now in your hands. The police will not do me any good." "That won't work either!" Bruce guarded the phone firmly, looking as if he was afraid of being snatched away by An Yinuo.Anna was now tied up, how could she possibly have the ability to snatch the phone?Her fear gradually dissipated.It seemed that Bruce was just a coward though he looked terrifying. She didn't need to fear him."You want the money, but do not let me call home. Then how do you get the money?" Anna asked.Bruce thought for a moment, "I'll figure it out! The initiative is in my hands, not yours! You shut up and don't talk."Anna sneered, "You're a person who really doesn't know any better. Before you were beaten. If I hadn't saved you, do you think you would have survived until now? I'm afraid you would have died in
"What are you going to do?"Seeing the creepy smile on Bruce's face, Anna turned pale with fear.Bruce took off his undershirt and stood in front of Anna half-naked with a scary smile.Anna froze. Bruce’s current look sent a chill through her."Don’t... Don't come over...""I'll call my father now and tell him to prepare money! How much do you want? I will promise to give it to you." Anna was so frightened that she exclaimed.As soon as Bruce heard the word “money”, he was stunned.He had few scruples now, perhaps because he had had alcohol.He picked up the phone and shook it, saying, "Tell me the number, and I'll dial it."Bruce still refused to untie Anna's hands and feet. He was worried that Anna would play tricks."Okay, I'll tell you the number, and you dial it." Anna hid the flash of wit in her eyes.Anna gave Bruce a number.It was not her father's phone number but Liam's.Bruce did not know whose phone number it was, so he dialed it."He turned off the phone!"
