Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam)
Chapter 247 Which One Do You Prefer?

The cold voice resounded through the office.

Anna felt a chill rise from the soles of her feet that instantly spread all over her body, making all her nerves tense.

Liam walked in coldly with chilly eyes and ready to kill. The temperature around him dropped sharply.

Ethan looked at Liam in surprise, and then at Anna next to him, with a confused look on his face.

"What's wrong, what's wrong..." Nina suddenly sat up," Why is it so cold? Is the air conditioner on?" Anna looked at Nina awkwardly, Nina only realized a second later and looked up...

"What!"

The moment Nina saw Liam, she screamed and hurriedly covered her mouth.

"Ack... why is Mr. Ackman here!" Nina was terrified and stood up quickly.

Anna whispered, "How would I know! It's midnight, who knows what crazy things he's up to."

Nina hurriedly pulled Anna, "Be quiet, or you'll be dead if he hears you."

Nina mimed the slice of a knife across her neck.

Anna looked horrified and quickly raised her head to look at Liam's icy expression. He didn't seem to have heard her, and she let out a long sigh of relief. "That...hehe, Mr. Ackman, why are you here?" Anna smiled.

Liam's dark eyes gave Anna a cold look, "I heard that my two students are spending the night away from home, so I came to take a look."

"Unexpectedly, I saw you chatting and laughing with a man."

The atmosphere was awkward.

Since when was it under the jurisdiction of a tutor if his students spent the night out?

Of course, Ethan knew Liam, a legend in the business world. His princely air and mannerisms dwarfed anyone who stood in front of him.

It's just that he didn't understand, why did Liam care so much about Anna? His gaze on Liam slowly grew inquisitive.

"Hello, I am Ethan of SN." Ethan politely stretched out his hand.

However, Liam ignored him, just staring straight at Anna.

"It's so late now, what are you doing?" Liam said coldly.

"Your company's case, of course!" Anna quickly pointed to the computer, afraid that Liam would be angry and go mad again.

Liam glanced at Ethan out of the corner of his eyes," You seem to be enjoying it very much."

Anna licked her lips dryly, "Work makes me happy, I love my work..."

Liam's eyes turned even colder, and Anna was so scared that she immediately lost her voice.

"Mr. Ackman requested time and time again for the proposal to be rewritten. Although these two designers are newcomers, they work very hard, and the proposals they have produced are really good. They do not lose out in comparison to those master designers." Ethan tried to salvage the tense atmosphere, smiling kindly.

Instead, Liam felt he was an eyesore, "It is because of the newcomer that I have to work harder!"

"Yes, what Mr. Ackman said is extremely true!" Ethan smiled, "Since you are here to visit a small advertising company like mine, come, have a seat."

Liam studied Ethan carefully. This man full of smiles is the expert helping her behind the scenes!

Although he smiled very warmly like a big brother next door, his strong intuition told him that this man was more than what meets the eye.

He ordered James to investigate Ethan carefully, but he didn't expect to end up replaceing nothing of value through the investigation.

This man was like a genie that appeared out of thin air in Johannes City, without any past or background, but in just one month, the SN Company quickly became famous throughout the City.

It was just a very small advertising design company, but it made many businessmen aware of its existence. That was the biggest problem.

Ethan still looked at Liam quietly with a warm smile.

The eyes of the two men clashed in the air for a moment, and Liam's lips twitched slightly.

"I don't need a seat, I'm here to see my students."

Ethan said with a smile, "It seems that these two must be Mr. Ackman's beloved students, otherwise, he won't come here this late at night."

"I wouldn't call them my beloved students! They are just two stubborn girls who give me a headache! I have spent a lot of effort teaching them. They haven't caused any trouble for you since they arrived, right?"

"Definitely not! Ms. Hamilton and Ms. Scott are very hardworking and talented. I hope they can work here after graduating." Ethan still smiled softly, expression unchanging, looking impeccable.

Liam suddenly smiled, "They haven't even gotten their graduation certificates yet, it's too early to talk about going to work."

Anna looked at Ethan quietly, and then at Liam, somehow feeling that they were sizing each other up, the atmosphere tense and strained.

"I just provided them with a chance to train themselves. Didn't you approve of them too?" Ethan looked at Anna.

Liam also looked at Anna, making Anna feel like a target was on her back, she subconsciously stepped back and laughed at both of them.

"I didn't say that I approved of her." Liam snorted coldly.

Anna quietly rolled her eyes at Liam, and secretly swore that one day she would make him admit personally that he recognized her talents as a designer.

"I guess I misunderstood! I thought that since Mr. Ackman met our designer before that means you approved of her."

Then, Ethan asked curiously, "I'm just confused, which of these two stubborn students of yours, do you prefer, Mr. Ackman?"

Ethan's tentative words instantly raised Anna's heart into her throat.

She stared at Liam without blinking, heart racing inexplicably. When she met Liam's cold and merciless eyes, her heart ached slightly, and bitterness spread through her mouth.

"I don't like any of them!" Liam turned around coldly and walked out.

"Come on! How long do you want to be here!" He yelled coldly.

Anna and Nina looked at each other, and Nina whispered, "Anna, you go on, and I will finish the final preparations! Remember, patience pays. Scores, scores are the most important." Nina patted Anna's shoulder trustingly.

Anna's lips twitched, and she smiled apologetically to Ethan, "I'm sorry, Mr. Collins, for troubling you! Mr. Ackman seems..."

Anna pointed to her head, "He's not very bright, and the state of his mental health is questionable! I think he has relapsed again. I'll go now."

Ethan still smiled breezily and nodded to Anna.

Although Liam didn't make it clear, Ethan knew that Liam came here mainly to see Anna alone, so it didn't matter if Nina left or not.

Anna grabbed her backpack and hurriedly chased after Liam.

Ethan remained at his spot, staring at her retreating back, a faint trickle of pain flashed through the bottom of his eyes.

In a second, he recovered himself and asked Nina with a smile.

"Mr. Ackman and Anna..."

Nina shook his head, "I replace it strange too! But, I think Mr. Ackman is a man with many rumors surrounding him. I don't know if Mr. Collins has heard of any of them." Ethan nodded.

Nina smiled, her two dimples cute and charming," Maybe he thinks he shares the same fate as Anna, so he looks out for her a lot! But he's not exactly looking out for her, it's more like venting his anger and getting his revenge."

"Venting his anger? Revenge?"

"That's right! Of course, it's because of Bryan Dawson!" Nina said solemnly.

Ethan's eyes twitched twice, "Go back to work."
