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

Chapter 702 Anna Was Shocked!

She had seen Liam drunk before, but never this much.

She was frightened.

'What the hell is wrong with him?’

"You...Are you all right?"

Liam leans against the pillar behind him with a thinlipped smile and a lukewarm tone, "Is this how you treat the man who saved your life?"

Anna paused, "What do you mean? How much alcohol have you had? Where’s James? Isn’t he with you?"

The words had barely dropped when Liam suddenly hugged her.

The warm embrace had a sense of familiarity, and hot and slightly heavy breathing sprayed in Anna's ears," Anna, I really can't imagine what happened that day."

Anna gave Liam a push, but he held her tighter and tighter.

"What's the matter? Let go of me, it's not right."

There was an injunction in her voice.

Liam held Anna firmly in his arms, his strong solid chin was resting on her shoulder, and his voice was husky and magnetic.

"I said, fortunately I arrived in time that day, otherwise I really dare not imagine what would have been the scene, these days as long as I think about it, I am very scared."

These understated words made Anna's eyes redden instantly.

A man who used to be such a bully was so worried about her.

In those days, she woke up from her dreams many times, but did not mention it to anyone.

But why was the man as scared as she was?

'He felt what I felt...'

Anna's heart was filled with grievance.

She gave Liam a gentle hug and said, "Don't be afraid. It's all over. I'm fine now, right?"

Liam, who was drunk, acted like a willful child in front of Anna, shaking his head vigorously and mumbling, "But I still worry."

"When I can't see you, I fear for your safety, for what might happen to you, for your happiness, for what's on your mind."

"I can only rest assured if you are by my side."

His once-in-a-century loveliness made Anna want to laugh.

"Don't worry, it's all over. Come on, I'll take you home."

Anna had already texted James while they were talking.

James was waiting in the corner of the parking lot.

Anna walked Liam to his car with her hand.

Liam drank a lot of wine and wobbled slightly as he walked. Anna took care of him carefully.

James opened the car door when he saw them coming.

"Why did he drink so much today?" Anna asked James sharply with a severe look in her eyes.

There was a note of reproach in her tone.

"Mr. Ackman talked about a cooperation project today. It was negotiated over a wine table. Mr. Ackman attached great importance to it, so he drank a lot. And this cooperation is with..."

James had barely uttered a few words when Liam suddenly woke up.

A pair of sharp eyes instantly looked at James, which gave him the shivers. He covered his mouth, shaking his head in fear, "I will not speak again."

As James spoke, Anna had helped Liam into the passenger seat.

She noticed the sharp, cold look in his eyes, too, and smiled playfully, "He sobered so soon? It's all right James, we'll talk in private." "No, you'd better let me off."

James thought, 'Don't involve me in anything between you two.'

He hurried back to the driver's seat, his hands over his ears as if he were deaf to gossip.

Liam, feeling his face slightly hot from drunkness, picked up a packet of tissue and gently unwraped it, rubbing it wearily on his face.

But he said to Anna coldly, "This amount of alcohol is a piece of cake for me."

Anna smiled as Liam put on a casual look.

"Is it really so? I think you're pretty drunk, and I remember what you said to me. You really care about me, right?"

Tentatively, she looked Liam in the face.

Liam tore off the tissue and sat upright with a jerk.

He deliberately lowered his voice to a cold retort, "I don't care about you, don't flatter yourself."

"James, what are you doing? Drive!"

Anna was shocked to see Liam's car leave.

'Why is he angry again?'

'What have I done to him?'

Liam's words were always in Anna's mind when she got home.

She seemed to have a little rabbit in her heart which had been bouncing, so that her heart had not been peaceful.

She was tossing and turning, her fingers lightly covering her lips as if she smelled Liam and felt the sting of his bite.

Her heart began to thump, and a warm current flowed slowly in her heart.

She sat up and picked up her phone to call Liam, but finally gave up.

'Why should I take it seriously when he’s been drinking a little too much?'

She calmed down a little with this thought. She put down her phone, sank into bed and covered herself with the quilt.

Before she knew it, she fell asleep, but her dream was full of Liam's shadow, arrogant, gentle, affectionate and unruly...

Early the next morning, Anna woke up with dark circles under her eyes.

She had just finished gargling when Liam's phone rang.

He invited Anna to meet in a cafe near Ackman Group to discuss the final design on the grounds that the jewelry design had not been finalized.

Anna was strangely excited.

She was scrambling in the closet looking for clothes.

After trying on several outfits, she finally settled on a white shirt, black pants and a dark green trench coat with a more composed tone.

She bundled up to meet Liam so he wouldn't take advantage of her again.

Anna stepped gracefully into a high-end cafe in a pair of half-inch heels, but Liam hadn't arrived yet. She sat by the window and waited for him.

But she didn't expect Liam to be wearing a dark green trench coat, too.

He walked in with a graceful gait and was surprised to see Anna's dress. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

'Is this a tacit understanding?’

Liam walked over and sat opposite Anna.

Both wore trench coats of the same color, giving the impression of a sweet couple.

Anna was a little stiff. She pulled at her trench, not knowing whether to wear it or take it off.

Finally, under Liam's searing gaze, she took a deep breath, pulled out the jewelry drafts from her bag and handed them to him.

"I have checked all the details back and forth countless times. I hope this modification is acceptable to you."

"Very well, make it as it is!" Liam crossed his legs and reclined on the back of a chair, without even looking at them.

'What did he mean by that?'

Anna was shocked!
