Anna took a deep breath and slowly defrosted the frozen smile on her lips. She maintained her perfect posture.“Mr. Ackman, why are you here?”Liam was a little more used to seeing her like this so he pushed the meal table towards her bedside. “You must be hungry. Have something to eat.”Anna smiled softly. “I’m alright. I’m not hungry.”She was already full from all the pent-up rage inside her!“I don’t want anyone to say that I’m mistreating a patient!” Liam placed all the dishes on top of the table.“Hurry up and eat.” He ordered.Anna smiled as she shook her head gently. Her voice remained calm and pleasant. “I’m not hungry.”Liam wore a cold expression on his face. “If you don’t eat, how will you have the energy to continue throwing crazy fits?”“...” Anna softly curled her hands into fists but slowly released them. She kept her smile going.As soon as she smelt the aroma of the food, Anna realized that she was ravenous. After all, it had been a full day and night since
James felt as though his brain was less able to keep up with Liam’s behavior nowadays. Why did he want an electric drill? James suppressed the confusion inside and rushed to find an electric drill for him.Liam received the electric drill and felt the weight of it in his hands. “Is that woman there?”Liam narrowed his attractive eyes as the light in his eyes darkened.“She’s been trapped inside her room for far too long. Get her outside for some air.”James understood and rushed off to arrange it.Anna finished listening to the ‘Jingle Bells’ song coming from her wristband before she called Sharon in to help her administer her eye medication.She was still unable to open her eyes and remained unable to see a thing. However, she seemed to have gotten used to it over the last few days and was not as helpless as she was before.Sharon helped administer her medication and attempted to engage Anna in conversation but Anna continued to ignore her. Sharon was a little upset. She bit he
Liam finally managed to drill a hole on the wall that he was satisfied with. It was a hole large enough for him to put his hand through and also observe everything in the next room.Liam smiled in satisfaction and blew on the electric drill in his hand, looking like a cowboy that had won a duel.James stood behind him and after hesitating for quite a long time, he cautiously opened his mouth, “Mr. Ackman, we could have installed a hidden camera next door… Wouldn’t that have been much simpler?”Liam’s smile froze for a second on his lips. He then turned back to look at James.“When did you become so clever?”His tone was calm and indifferent, yet, James seemed to hear a tinge of coldness in it. The corner of James’ lips twitched and three deep lines appeared on his forehead. It was as though a murder of crows had flown across his head.Was he clever or has Liam lost a few points of his IQ recently?After all, it was said that love could make one lose their sense of reason and mak
Chloe walked up to Anna’s bed, took her hand, and said coquettishly, “Anna, of course, I’ll focus on my studies. However, I’m not as amazing as you are. You’re the top student in every subject and well-deserving of the title of top student!”“Anna, you know how they say that it’s a blessing for a woman to be ordinary? After all, if a woman is too outstanding in her studies, she won’t be able to marry a man that she can depend on for her whole life. What’s the point of all that studying then?” said Chloe as she suggestively looked at Bryan.Bryan felt a little embarrassed and averted his gaze to look outside the window. Chloe was a little unhappy with him. Every time that she brought up the topic of marriage, Bryan would look disinterested. Chloe silently clenched her fists as her eyes filled with a cold light.Anna could read between the lines of Chloe’s words and soundlessly withdrew her hand, smiling coolly.“It’s good to marry but one should be capable! In this society, it's t
Chloe placed the freshly-washed grapes on the table before Anna. After that, she wiggled her slender figure as she sat down lightly on Bryan’s lap.Without waiting for Bryan to push her off, she wrapped her hands around Bryan’s neck. She whispered in front of him, “It’s okay. Anna can’t see this.”After she finished speaking, her soft little hands began to gently stroke the area between his legs, making Bryan feel a different sort of excitement.At that moment, the hospital door was pushed open and a deep voice suddenly rang out. “What are you both doing?”Chloe was so frightened that she stood up from Bryan’s lap. All the color drained from her face.Bryan’s complexion did not look much better than Chloe’s. He went so white he was practically see-through.“Un-uncle… Uncle…” Bryan was so terrified that his heart was pounding wildly. His voice was all choked up.Liam glanced at Anna who had remained quiet. He did not speak plainly. He was a little worried that Anna would be hur
Anna understood the situation that she was in right now. She was powerless. Each step she took felt like walking on thin ice. If she wanted to take control of the Lincoln Group, her only choice was to rely on borrowed power.Liam’s fingers tightened momentarily, eliciting a sense of pain. Anna struggled forcefully but was unable to escape from his grip.“What’s wrong? So he can touch you but I can’t?”When he recalled how she had taken the initiative to let Bryan touch her, was it really necessary for her to struggle this much when he was just holding her chin?“Liam Ackman. What’s your plan? Why does it concern you who I allow to touch me? Who are you to me? What right do you have to control me?“Woman, don’t you know what’s good for you!? Your eyes aren’t working right but is your heart blind as well!?” Liam’s expression was grim and cold.Numerous women had wanted to start a relationship with him but he did not spare them a single glance. This little woman that he had bedded
“I hate people that pretend to be deaf when I talk!” Liam fumed.Anna could feel his boiling rage. She opened her eyes instinctively, staring at him with equally wrathful eyes.“If you hate it so much, you can always choose to leave!”She could not understand Liam at all. If he hated her so much, why would he not leave her alone!While Anna did appreciate the care and concern he showed her, she still could not stand his insufferably arrogant attitude. He always acted as if she owed him the world!Liam gazed at Anna’s beautiful eyes. They were still as clear as water despite the tinges of red that remained. Seeing her eyes brought him remorse.“Can you see now?”Anna quickly shut her eyes. “No, not at all!”An odd feeling of joy emerged in his heart. His expression softened and his tone turned warmer. “It’s good that you can see now.”Anna covered her ears. “I can’t see. I can’t see. My eyes hurt…”She could not believe that brute would tear away her bandages in a fit of rage!
Anna quickly struggled with both hands.“No, no, no!”“A woman always means ‘yes’ when they say no!”“Nonsense! Stay away from me!” Anna covered her mouth tightly.Liam batted away her tiny hands and inched closer and closer to her. His handsome face magnified before her eyes.“Pervert! You damn pervert… Y-y-you…”Before Anna could finish, his forceful and overbearing kiss landed on her lips again. That was her punishment for angering him. His erect sword pressed against her scabbard under the blanket. His heavy breaths made Anna’s face redden and her heart thump.Flustered, she closed her eyes and heard Liam’s cold voice sounding beside her ear.“Little lady, what are you getting excited for?”Anna quivered, snapping out of her daze. She scrambled backward but lost her balance and fell off the bed. She yelped as she fell.Liam reached out his long arms. He scooped her up from the floor and pulled her straight into his embrace.The perfect contours of his face appeared rig
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
