Chapter 204 Special Present


    "Uncle! You''re here!”


    Bryan quickly weed Liam with a look of ingratiation but he did not receive a hint of friendliness


    from Liam. He did not even look at Bryan and walked straight into the Dawson family mansion.


    Anna could not maintain the smile on her face any longer as she trembled.


    Why did Liam suddenlye here?


    Ever since the bridal boutique, Liam had not contacted Anna and neither did she contact him. The


    both of them were like strangers and had not contacted each other.


    Although the both of them interacted rather happily when they ate the Boyal Banquet, Anna was so


    angry that she wanted to rip Liam to shreds when he took out the IOU.


    However, after some thought, Liam should not have paid that sum of money since he helped Anna


    vent by troubling Chloe and Bryan. But Anna did not have the money to return him!


    During the silence of the night, Anna would ask herself whether Liam was doing so much for her


    just t o satisfy his desires?


    Anna''s head was in the clouds for a few seconds as she did not notice Liam had walked in front of


    her.


    Anna suddenly raised her head and saw Liam''s chiseled face staring at her intensely.


    Anna froze as she felt a shiver down her spine, she did not know how many pairs of eyes were on


    them at that moment!


    Staring at Anna like this would lead to a misunderstanding!


    "Anna, quickly give your seat to Mr. Ackman!" said Daniel.


    Anna hurriedly stood up and took a few steps back. "A h... Mr. Ackman, please have a seat."


    "Look at this child, she''s terrified of her own mentor. Liam, don''t be so strict toward Anna, she''s my


    favorite," said Grandmother Dawson smilingly.


    Liam did not say a word as he sat on Anna''s seat.


    Anna’s warmth was still left on the seat which made Liam feel an inexplicable sense offort and


    a rush of heat in his depths.


    "Liam! Come, let me tell you a piece of good news." Grandmother Dawson looked at Anna smilingly


    and announced loudly.


    "Anna''s eyes have healed! She can see now!"


    Liam looked toward Anna with a face of indifference, they could not read his thoughts nor emotions.


    "Are you sure it’s healed? Why do I feel that there’s no different than before?" said Liam coldly.


    Anna started to feel uneasy. What was Liam this sly man trying to insinuate this time?


    Liam did not take another look at Anna. There seemed to be ayer of cold on his handsome face


    which made everyone hold their breaths.


    Anna felt inexplicably disappointed, the warmth in her heart cooled in an instant. Loss and anguish


    slowly spread in her heart...


    "Liam, it''s been quite a few days since you visited me," said Grandmother Dawson.


    "I was busy with a huge project recently," replied Liam.


    "You must be busy with work since you took over the Ackman Group not long ago. But there are so


    many people in thepany, let your employees do more of the work. You shouldn''t be doing


    everything personally as a CEO," said Grandmother Dawson.


    Liam smiled. "I must produce some results of my own since I just came back."


    "How else would the Ackman Group be the leader of Johannes City! All the employees must be


    delighted to have Mr. Ackman who’s such a hands-on boss," said Daniel with a smile.


    Bryan shifted his gaze away from Anna and said," Exactly, Grandma always wanted me to learn


    from Uncle. If I could achieve his standard then Grandma wouldn’t have to worry as much."


    "Just don''t wear yourself out," said Grandma Dawson caringly.


    "Yes, Uncle, you must have a work-life bnce. You can’t overwork and wear yourself out." Bryan


    quickly chimed in.


    "Indeed there must be work-life bnce." Liam turned toward Anna who stood aside. Anna''s body


    tensed up and she quickly lowered her head.


    What was he looking at her for?


    What did his work-life bnce have to do with her!


    Liam felt his face warming up when he saw how riled up Anna was.


    What was going on with her! Did she lose herposure just by a single look? That was so


    unpromising!


    She kept reminding herself that this man would not fall for her and she must maintain her


    composure and control her emotions, and not give a hint to anyone.


    A glint slowly appeared in Chloe’s eyes as she shifted her gaze between Anna and Liam.


    "Liam, you’ve frightened Anna! Can''t you be a little more cheerful!?" said Grandmother Dawson.


    Chloe had an idea and grinned. "Grandma, Uncle treats Anna really well! Her birthday ising up


    and Mr. Ackman gave her 127 wedding dresses as a special present!"


    Chloe purposely raised her voice so that everyone could hear her.


    "Wedding dresses? 127? That''s a lot!” Amelia gasped.


    Anna shot a nce at Chloe, she really knew how to take advantage of the situation! She would not


    let go o f any opportunity!


    Liam looked toward Anna, his voice was in as he spoke at an appropriate pace. "Ms. Anna


    wasn’t in a good mood these days so I wanted to give her a special present, and perhaps her eyes


    would heal if she''s a little happier."


    "And it''s proven to be quite effective."


    Grandmother Dawson understood Liam’s implication. I t was really cruel and saddening for a


    woman to be betrayed by her fiance and her own family.


    "I''m really happy that Anna''s eyes have recovered! Thank you Liam, for taking care of Anna for me!"


    Grandmother Dawson brought back the topic.


    Never thought that Chloe would not let it go and said," Not just the wedding dresses, he even


    bought the entire bridal boutique and gave it to Anna! I’m so envious of Anna for having such a


    caring mentor."


    "What? Liam bought the entire bridal boutique for Anna!" eximed Amelia loudly in shock as she


    gasped again.


    It would seem that Amelia became Chloe''s aplice at that moment, allowing her to transition to


    the next


    topic.

    "We all know that Uncle cares about his students and wants to help Grandma take care of Anna!


    What we don’t know is the extent of their rtionship!" Chloe smiled as she looked carefully at


    Grandmother Dawson''s reaction.


    Everyone immediately fell silent and the atmosphere quickly became awkward. It was as if the air


    around them instantly froze.


    Everyone looked at Liam awaiting his response.


    Meanwhile, Liam was looking at Anna while maintaining hisposure.


    Anna was so nervous that her palms became sweaty. She was worried that Liam would say


    something he was not supposed to and make everyone suspicious of their rtionship even more.


    After two minutes, Liam finally opened his mouth and spoke in a cold voice.


    "Ms. Anna was robbed of her opportunity to wear a wedding dress. The reason I gave her wedding


    dresses was to let her know that she has many more opportunities to wear wedding dresses in the


    future. I s this even deserving of scrutiny?"


    Chloe''s chest tightened as she was afraid of Liam''s imposing manner and lowered her head.


    Grandmother Dawson red at Chloe and smiled. " Liam, you''re a calm and mature senior, and


    you''re a good judge of character. Do you have a suitable candidate to introduce to Anna?"


    Anna and Liam were both stunned.
