Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam)

Chapter 521 The Best Surprise

"As long as my father is at home, I will let him tell me stories to coax me to sleep."

Neal looked at Gemma with envy, "You’re really lucky, Gemma. I envy you having such a good daddy."

Neal remembered that his daddy had never been to see him. And then, a look of despair crossed his face.

"Exactly. My daddy is the best father in the world!" Gemma tilted her little head proudly, and there was a sparkle of pride in her eyes.

"My daddy is handsome and gentle. When I grow up, I will marry a good man like my daddy."

Hearing that, Neal looked at her meaningfully, "Then you can marry me. I'm also handsome."

Gemma's mouth twitched, "No! You're not handsome. My daddy is the most handsome man!"

Neal said with a pout, "All right. Your daddy is the most handsome man! Then marry your dad. Don't play at my home!"

Gemma snorted in anger, "This is where I want to play! I'm gonna play right here. Huh?"

Neal sniffed, "You're such a big fan of your dad. Every time you mention him, you almost drool."

"You bad boy! I'm not..." Gemma blushed and was ready to hit Neal, but Neal immediately dodged.

Anna stood at the door. Her eyes were no longer filled with anxiety, but with tenderness. Seeing her cute and headstrong daughter, Anna breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't bother Gemma and Neal.

Michelle came after Anna. Seeing that the two children were having a good time, she gave her youngest son to the servant and asked Anna in puzzlement.

"What's wrong with you, Eileen? Why are you so anxious? It's not the first time Gemma came to my home. I've never seen you so worried before." Michelle sized Anna up queerly.

"Nothing. The servant said Gemma was missing. I thought she was lost."

"There are so many servants to take care of her. This i s a rich area. All security guards are very responsible. She can't get lost. You're making a fuss!"

Anna also thought she was too worried and eventually made a misunderstanding.

"What's the matter with you lately, Eileen? Is something bothering you?" Michelle asked curiously.

"Oh, I'm fine. You're worried too much."

Michelle chuckled, "I wasn't born yesterday. Don't try t o deceive me. Having trouble with your husband? Talk to me. What's going on?"

Michelle was dull at home, and family gossip was the only thing she could do to kill time.

Anna shook her head with a smile, "We don't have any fights. You're totally wrong. I'm fine. Really."

Seeing that Anna didn't want to say, Michelle didn't ask anymore. She looked at the children and said.

"How pure and innocent they are! I really envy them!"

"Yeah." Anna nodded and stared at Gemma. Her eyes were moist.

'Fortunately, you weren't taken away, Gemma.'

'Otherwise, I don't know what to do!'

At that time, Ethan came over.

Michelle looked around and saw a tall and gentle man hurrying anxiously.

"You've found Gemma, haven't you?"

It made Ethan's heart ached to see Anna's eyes were moist, "She's okay, why are you crying? Cheer up, honey!"

Ethan quickly took the paper and gently wiped her tears, which made Michelle envy.

"Oh, come on. Don't do PDA. Can you two take it somewhere else please!" Michelle joked.

Ethan smiled and said nothing.

He knew that Gemma was everything to Anna. Although Gemma had been found, Anna must still be very sad.

"I'm okay." Anna smiled and pointed to Gemma, who was having fun with Neal in the distance, "Look, how happy they are!"

"All children are alike. They like to run around and play. Take it easy. Gemma is all right. Even if something happens to her, I'll take care of her."

Ethan said softly and sighed with relief. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Anna was about to say something when she noticed Michelle looking at them admiringly.

Anna blushed, "Why do you stare at us so?"

"Oh, I just envy you having such a good husband." Michelle's mouth twitched.

"Why are you here, daddy, mommy?" As soon as Gemma looked back, she saw Ethan and Anna standing at the door.

Anna looked at Gemma with a scowl and was about to scold her.

Ethan patted her hand and walked to Gemma.

He said softly, "I came to see if my little princess was lost."

Gemma was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she didn't tell the housekeeper when she came out. Gemma cocked her head and glanced furtively at Anna's unusually grave face.

"Daddy, your little princess is not lost. Let's go home." Gemma pretended to be serious and waved goodbye to Neal.

Gemma took Ethan's big hand and whispered.

"Is mommy angry, daddy? She looks angry. Protect m e, daddy, please-"

Ethan smiled and fondled Gemma's head, "Wow! I thought you were not afraid of anything!"

"Do you know how anxious your mom is?"

Gemma stuck out her tongue, "I know I was wrong, daddy. I won't do it again."

Seeing Anna's angry appearance, Gemma's head dropped lower. She hid behind Ethan and hugged his legs as if seeking protection, which made Anna feel funny and angry.

"I'll handle you at home!" Anna said it with a deliberately sullen expression to scare Gemma.

Gemma hugged Ethan tightly, then took Ethan and ran away.

Watching Gemma and Ethan's back fade away, Anna felt angry funny and warm.

Michelle said admiringly, "You are so lucky to have such a wonderful husband. He is not only handsome but also has an outstanding temperament. More importantly, I can see that he loves you very much."

Anna pursed her lips and said nothing.

She knew, of course, that Ethan loved her.

Just like she loved Liam, asking for nothing in return.

She felt guilty at the thought of what Ethan had done for her over the years.

One of the things that made her most guilty was that she couldn't give Ethan what he wanted most.

"Exactly. He is really a good man worthy of women's trust."

Seeing Ethan's back, a flash of gratitude zipped through Anna.

Over the years, Ethan had done a lot for Anna and Gemma.

Perhaps no one in the world loved Anna and Gemma like him

Anna was moved and wanted to compensate Ethan.

She made a decision in her mind.

'Ethan, when the jewelry show is over, I'll give you the best surprise."
