Bryan’s arms were wrapped around Anna.He showed affection toward her in front of everyone to put Grandmother Dawson at ease with their relationship, assuring her that the incident with Ryan did not create any lasting impact. After all, he could not risk Grandmother Dawson calling off the marriage.Secondly, he wanted to shut Amelia up as Grandmother Dawson was inclined to believe her if she were to spill the secret between him and Chloe.Lastly, it served as a warning for Chloe to take it down a notch and stop fanning the flames. That day’s incident would not escalate further than this.“Anna, next time, ask me to go with you. It’s dangerous for a woman to wander out alone at night. I’m your fiance. You can share your burdens with me.”Anna could see the frost in Liam’s eyes. Liam stared at hers as if he were about to gobble them up at any second.She tried to push Byran away, yet he responded by hugging her even tighter. He even brought his lips close to her ear and whispered s

Bryan grabbed Anna’s arm. His stance clearly demonstrated his desire to confront her.Anna lifted her head and gazed down the long corridor. Light penetrated the window at the end, shining through the fog in her heart and illuminating the agonizing darkness within.Nonetheless, there were still some things that Anna was not ready to face head-on.She was afraid that once the truth was out in the open, she would not be able to pretend that she did not care.“Anna, if you have something to say, just say it. Your cold shoulders are making me uncomfortable.”Anna felt her heart being squeezed. Bryan did not even bother pretending anymore.She took a deep breath, turned her head, and smiled at him. “I just had LASIK surgery, so I’m not feeling well. Have I been neglecting you? I’m so sorry for that.”Of course, Bryan could hear the detachment in her tone. Even so, when faced with her tantalizing smile, he could not think of anything to say and simply smiled.“Alright, that’s good to

Anna arrived at home.Daniel was sitting on the sofa, glaring at her with an infuriated expression as she entered the house.“You still have the dignity to come home?” Daniel fumed.His ear-piercingly sharp and booming voice reverberated across the vast living room.Nicole and Chloe were standing beside Daniel. Even they were hanging their heads low, trembling in fear. They stood obediently like women who did not even dare to speak loudly in front of the man of the house.“Danny, don’t be mad. Anna has already explained herself to Madam Dawson. It’s not her fault… It’s not like she had done anything improper.”“That’s right, Daddy. Don’t be mad at Anna. She’s been through a lot today. Besides, there was no way that Anna invited a man into her room in the Dawson family mansion. She’s not that kind of person!”Both Chloe and Nicole were trying to soothe Daniel’s anger, pretending as if they were trying their best to defend Anna.However, it further stoked Daniel’s anger. “Who do

Bryan drove Anna to the hospital. It was supposed to only take 30 minutes to get there but they had still not arrived even though Bryan had been driving for more than an hour.Anna started to feel a little annoyed. She put on her sunglasses to shield her eyes from the intense sunlight streaming in from the windows.“What’s up with you today, Anna?” asked Bryan. He maintained his patient demeanor and warm, sweet smile.“I didn’t sleep well last night.” Anna did not want to speak to Bryan so she leaned against her seat and closed her eyes.Bryan quickly took off his coat and carefully draped it over Anna. “Be careful to not catch a cold,” he said.“I don’t need this. It isn’t chilly,” replied Anna coldly.“Anna, please don’t be like this. I’m only doing this because I care for you.”“Yeah, I know.” Anna responded to his words indifferently then said, “You should focus on driving.” Bryan suddenly braked, bringing the car to a halt. “Anna, I’m going to buy you some fried chicken.

Anna’s moist, pink lips were captured by his cool, thin lips. He snatched the breath right out of her mouth with overbearing savage ferocity. Anna went light-headed from the lack of oxygen before Liam finally broke away from her delicate, red lips. He stared at Anna with his breathtaking jet-black eyes and said in a husky voice.“I’ve said it before, you’re my woman! No one is allowed to touch you from now on!”Anna stared back at him with her beautiful doe-eyes. She lowered her voice and snarled, “Liam Ackman! Have you gone mad!? This is a hospital! What are you going to do if someone sees us?”“Hah! So you do know that this is a hospital and there are people around. In that case, why did you take part in such an intimate embrace earlier?”His tone was brimmed with jealousy.“Oh really? When did you see me being intimate with him? Besides, he’s my fiance! What’s wrong with my fiance giving me a hug, uncle?”He could not believe that she was calling him uncle once again! It see
