Chapter 585 The Important Guest


    Put the wedding on hold?


    Anna couldn''t believe her ears that such words wereing from Ethan''s mouth.


    She blinked in astonishment. Looking at Ethan''s taut side face, her pink lips parted slightly.


    "What did you say?"


    About the wedding, Ethan was, even more, looking forward to it than she was.


    How could it be possible that he said the words of putting the wedding on hold himself?


    "You already heard it clearly, didn''t you?" Ethan''s voice was a little gloomy.


    "Ethan..."


    She called him in a soft voice, and slowly, she reached out her slim hands to take Ethan''s broad


    hands.


    "You''re angry, aren''t you?"


    Anna knew very well that anyone would get angrying across such a situation.


    "Trust me! Our wedding will be sessful by the next time! I will never allow him to ruin our


    wedding again."


    Seeing the worried look on her face, Ethan smiled brightly and gracefully. He reached out and


    dabbed the tip of her tiny nose.


    "I''m not angry, my silly bunny. How could I be angry with you?"


    "Then what''s the matter?" Anna was anxious. She didn''t want the settled wedding to be interrupted


    like this.


    Ethan''s eyes were tender as always. It seemed one would be drawn in such infinite tenderness.


    "I still hope that we will have the wedding when you are all ready."


    "I am all ready! Really!" Anna nodded her head vigorously to show her determination.


    Ethan curled the corners of his lips and smiled. His eyes were still gentle. "I''ve really been too busy


    lately. And, as you can see at our wedding, almost none of the invited guests showed up. Everyone


    has been really busytely. Let''s pick another day when people are not so busy and we will have


    the wedding then."


    Anna knew that Ethan was making excuses.


    She knew more clearly than Ethan that it must be Liam''s secret maneuver that the guests did not


    come t o their wedding.


    Ethan rubbed Anna''s head dotingly. He said in a pretend lighter voice, "You''re tired too. Go home


    and have a good rest!"


    Even though Anna was the most precious woman to him and he wanted to have her and protect her


    the most, seeing her sullen face with a torn look, he felt pain in his heart.


    Instead of making them both suffer like this, maybe h e should take a step back. It would be better


    for him to suffer alone than to make Anna suffer together.


    Maybe he should give her some more time, and, when she figured out her true feelings, she would


    make a decision that she would not regret in the future.


    "But our wedding... It''s notpleted..." Anna lowered her head, feeling guilty.


    Facing such a gentle and considerate Ethan, she really felt ashamed of herself.


    Ethan gave an easy smile and put on a cheerful look." Marriage is a matter between the two of us,


    and no one else can interfere with it. Thepany has been really busytely. Let''s focus on


    business first. The wedding is just a ceremony."


    He spoke in a deliberate rxed manner, acting as if h e did not care about it too much. Only he


    knew how much pain he was feeling in his heart.


    Anna looked at his casual appearance. The look on his face was always so gentle that no one could


    bear to hurt such a man, but she had given him the deepest hurt.


    After a long time, Anna let out a light sigh.


    "Okay, let''s focus on business first."


    Anna pushed open the car door and got out, carrying her long snow-white wedding dress, and


    walked towards the Hamilton mansion without looking back.


    Ethan was sitting in the car, watching Anna''s fading snow-white back, and finally, he could no longer


    keep the smile on his face, his gentle eyes filled with splitting pain.


    ''Anna... Anna...''


    ''Is it destined that in this life I can only stand by your back and watch you in silence?''


    Anna went back to her room. She copsed against the door and slowly slid down and sat on the


    floor.


    Her snow-white wedding dress spread out like a blooming white lotus, making her look even more


    delicate and vulnerable.


    She tilted her head up and slowly closed her eyes. She had mixed feelings in her heart.


    In the car, she could have begged Ethan not to put the wedding on hold, but when the words came


    to her lips, it was as if her lips were glued shut. She couldn''t say any words.


    What was going on in her mind?


    She didn''t understand herself at all. She only felt guilty, and she didn''t know how to face Ethan


    again.


    Perhaps, as Ethan had said, she was just not ready yet.


    But when would she be ready?


    She couldn''t get her mind clear. Her mind seemed to b e in chaos, and she couldn''t figure out


    anything. She felt even more restless. She always wanted to do something for Ethan, but she didn''t


    know what she could do.


    Anna didn''t sleep well all night. She kept tossing and turning in bed all night, and those memories


    from three years ago kepting back to her mind.


    There was Liam, Chloe, Nicole, her father, and Bryan i n the images...


    Eventually, she thought again of her childhood when she was with her mother. Then her mother


    passed away and her grandfather adopted a little boy. She always followed him around, calling him


    little brother, and he used to call her ''Bunny''.


    But she couldn''t remember too many details. She only knew that her little brother always doted on


    her. Then the little brother went abroad with his grandfather, and henceforth they lost contact.


    Anna did not know that Ethan was the little brother in her childhood until he suddenly showed up


    three years ago...


    The past scenes kept swirling in her mind and she didn''t know if they were her dreams or her


    illusions in insomnia.


    When Anna woke up in the morning, she was very tired while Ethan had got up early to go to work.


    Thepany looked as busy as always. She wondered if thepany had gotten over the


    difficulties yet?


    She, as the heir to Lincoln Group, really didn''t devote much to thepany. She relied on Ethan


    too much and she had been an irresponsible boss for so many years.


    Anna yawned and she made a cup of coffee to refresh herself. Just then, a ck Bentley pulled up


    in front of the Hamilton mansion.


    Lisa was busy in the kitchen. Seeing the car, she hurriedly dropped her work and ran out to see who


    it was.


    Anna was also curious, so she took a look outside.


    The person in the car did not get out. She could not see clearly who it was.

    Instead, the car made a beep, signaling the guard to open the gate to let the car drive in.


    The beep rmed Gemma. She was ying with blocks upstairs, and she had just built a princess


    castle with the blocks, but the car horn startled her and her hand shook and the castle copsed.


    Gemma was a little upset. She ran downstairs in haste.


    "Ms. Anna, Madam Dawsones." Lisa called out from the yard.


    The expression on her immacte delicate face froze for a moment. She patted Gemma''s tiny head


    and said, "We have an important guest here."


    Gemma looked curious. "What''s the important guest doing here?"


    Anna slowly stood up. "I don''t know what the guest is going to do either."


    With the help of the maid, holding a crutch, Madam Dawson quivered as she stretched a leg and


    stepped down from the car.


    Anna had not seen Madam Dawson for three years. She used to feel that Madam Dawson cared


    more about the reputation of the Dawson family, so her affection for the olddy grew less.


    However, when she saw the olddy wearing a full head of white hair and straining to hold up her


    body to visit her in person, Anna instantly got touched.
