Chapter 27 His Punishment
Anna reached back and hit the man behind her several times. "You asked me what I''m feeling guilty
for? Get out. Don''t do this..."
"You’re not even cheating, so what are you afraid of!" Anna wondered how could Liam have said
that so confidently.
"This isn''t cheating? Get out. Quick, get out.... Ah..." She was in a lot of pain.
Liam clutched tightly onto her soft shoulders, hugging her tight so she could not escape.
"Are you married?"
Anna was speechless.
"You''re not even married, so what are you afraid of! And even if you are, you can always divorce
him!" Liam was actually enraged. He used Anna as an outlet for his wrath.
Anna was in so much pain that she had lost all her strength. Her hands clung desperately onto his
steellike arm.
"I want you to remember this: you are Liam Ackman''s woman!” Liam thrust even harder. "Don''t
forget it. This is my punishment for you!" "Ah..."
Bryan came out of Liam’s room and returned to Anna''s, ready to force Ryan into spilling Anna''s
location.
Just then, Ryan''s shouts sounded from within the room. "Why won’t you let me out? Don''t you know
who I am? You are illegally detaining me, don''t you know that?”
Ryan had already put on his clothes. His handsome face was covered with green and purple
patches. He was bruised beyond recognition.
He even demanded to be sent to the hospital and to have the Dawson family pick up the tab.
Bryan was about to run up to Ryan and beat him up again, but the spectating guests hurriedly held
him back.
Grandmother Dawson knocked her cane against the floor as a warning for him to stop, but Bryan
had lost all ability to think straight. No one could get through t o him.
He pointed at Ryan and yelled, "This is the Dawson family mansion, so only my words matter! I am
the son of the Dawson family, future man of the house! Ryan Sanchez, don''t even think about
leaving before this situation is sorted out and Anna is found!"
Ryan was also in a fury. Previously, he did not dare to utter a word because Bryan was plummeting
him to death, but since there were so many people holding Bryan down this time, Ryan knew he
could noty a finger on him. His words became painfully insulting.
"Bryan Dawson, rather than screaming your heart out here, why don''t you go look for your fiancee
properly for once. Maybe she had run away with some man on the streets!"
Bryan clenched his fists, his veins popping. He pounced toward Ryan again.
The guests quickly held him back. The situation was i n a huge mess.
Grandmother Dawson had no choice but to yell, "Quiet! That''s enough!"
The moment Bryan heard his grandmother''s voice, he finally quieted down. Panting heavily, he
red at Ryan with a death stare.
With the help of Amelia, Grandmother Dawson slowly shuffled toward Bryan with her cane in her
hand.
Suddenly, she raised her hand and pped Bryan across the face.
Bryan fell into a daze and so did all the people watching.
"Don''t you know what kind ofdy Anna is?" Grandmother Dawson scolded. The crowd fell into a
curious silence.
"Anna would never taint our name like that! You even barged into your uncle''s room to search for
her! You... Y
-y-you''s gonna be the death of me. Do you want the whole world tough at you? You thought that
Anna had... she had..."
Grandmother Dawson gasped for air. She clenched her chest painfully.
Everyone was shocked. They quickly went up to Grandmother Dawson and started yelling
frantically.
"Grandma, grandma..."
"Madam Dawson..."
Grandmother Dawson was rushed to the hospital.
When Liam arrived at the hospital, she had already been moved from the emergency room to a
ward.
A doctor was exining to the Dawson family the cause of Grandmother Dawson''s copse and
precautions they should take.
The doctor’s name was Michael Hart. He was an attractive man with a pair of frameless sses. He
appeared quiet and good-mannered. He had an odd habit of adjusting his sses with his index
finger.
"The patient suffered from a sudden heart attack.
Luckily, she was sent here in time. Her condition is stable now, but she must be admitted for a few
days so we can monitor her condition. The patient is quite old, so you must ensure she has a good
diet and proper rest. Also, try to avoid emotional shocks."
Micheal was not like the other doctors-he did not bow down and kiss up to the Dawson family when
he
saw them.
Instead of acting in an obsequious manner, Micheal was calm and unfazed. Hisposure actually
made him appear more respectable.
When Micheal saw Liam, he merely nodded at him before turning away and exiting the ward.
Amelia greeted Liam then followed Micheal to his office, iming that she wanted to know more
about her grandmother''s condition.

In the office, Amelia subtly leaned toward Micheal.
In a soft voice, she asked, "Dr. Hart, has anyone ever told you how handsome you look? Or that you
look like a movie star? There''s this celebrity that looks just like you! Coincidentally, that man is my
idol."
"No," Micheal replied simply, then continued to flip through a patient''s file.
Amelia leaned in closer, yet Micheal did not even nce at her. She felt defeated.
"You all better take good care of my grandmother, otherwise, I''m afraid even the hospital can''t afford
topensate us!"
Having said that, Amelia flung open the door and left.
In the corridor, she crossed her arms and fumed," You''re just a measly doctor! How could you be so
haughty!"
How dare he ignore the precious daughter of the great
Dawson family!
Bryan heard his sister’s rants. He knew what kind of woman Amelia was-as long as there was an
attractive man in sight, she would surely try to seduce him.
In high society, daughters of rich families had all grown bored of typical rtionships. They craved
for challenge and excitement. On the surface, they may appear beautiful, ssy and elegant, but in
reality, they all had their own messed up ways of doing things.
Bryan snickered.
The moment Amelia looked up, she was met with Bryan''s scornful smirk. She held her head high
and marched toward him in her high heels.
"What are youughing at!"
"Nothing much. It’s just that I saw a disgraceful little... wh*re."
''A wh*re!
''How dare he call me a wh*re!''
The expression on her beautiful face changed abruptly. Amelia taunted, "Bryan Dawson, do you not
care about your fiancee anymore! If you don''t do something quick, the Dawson family name will
have t o be thrown in the trash!"
Bryan''s expression turned dark. "What did you say?"
"Didn''t you hear me?" Amelia snickered. "I guess it’s true that a son brought in from the streets
won’t be able to fill the role! It’s such a small matter yet now the whole world knows about it!"
Bryan clenched his fists tight. The veins on his arms were bulging up. He despised it the most when
anyone mentioned his past.
"Amelia Dawson, watch your mouth." Bryan ground his teeth in rage.
Amelia smirked coldly. "Last night, I think I saw a particr man entering the same room as a
certain someone''s little sister. He went in and never left for the whole night. If Grandma finds out
about this...
Hehe!"
Amelia did not continue. Her eyes shone with delight and her bright red lips curved into a tight arch.
Bryan''s heart shuddered. A hint of fear emerged within his jet-ck eyes.
Even so, he refuted coldly, "Don''t even think about ndering me! The only person I love is Anna!"
"Oh, is it now? Chloe is in Grandma’s room right now. Let me go and ask her what exactly is her
rtionship with you! I''ll let Grandma judge for herself!"
Having said that, Amelia hurried toward Grandmother Dawson''s ward.
Bryan''s heart sank. He hastily followed behind.
Amelia had never liked him. If she was to seed in digging out this scandal, who knew what kind
of false ims would she throw into the mix.
Once Grandmother Dawson was enraged, his status in the Dawson family would fall to the very
bottom, despite being the only grandson in the family.
