Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) -
Chapter 809 You Are Better Than Me
Anna knew better than anyone.
The person who treated her best was Ethan!
Such a sense of security really made her attached, like a floating board for a drowning man.
She knew she had been selfish.
She didn't like Ethan but she was still trying to hold on to him.
However, she was really afraid that she would have no final support in this world after being separated from Ethan.
She had no family, and she really didn't want Ethan to leave her.
After Gemma was kidnapped by Bryan, Anna drove her to and from school herself.
Although she had reported to the police, the latter only restricted Bryan's access to and from the country, claiming the investigation was still ongoing.
Anna must have guessed it was Grandmother Dawson who was behind it.
But she was convinced Liam would not let Grandmother Dawson get away with this and that he would replace a way to bring Bryan to justice.
It was time for Gemma to go to dance class again.
After winning the first prize in the dance competition, Gemma became more passionate about dance and started to take more dance classes. Gemma had learned to stay in shape, but after a hard workout, she was hungry.
Anna took her to eat in the restaurant.
She didn't expect to meet Nicole and Chloe.
They work in the restaurant!
Chloe didn't want Anna to see her like this, but she couldn't escape. So she smiled and said hello to Anna.
"It's been a long time."
Wearing the restaurant waitress uniform, Chloe was not as high and mighty as before. She had become more docile. "Long time no see."
She wanted to turn around and leave with Gemma, but thought it would be prudish to do so, so she told Gemma to sit in a nearby chair. "That's Gemma? She's so pretty, so cute." Chloe looked at the beautiful girl enviously, who was swinging her legs on the chair. Anna said nothing.
"What would you like to eat? My treat." Chloe smiled, her eyes no longer hostile.
Anna was still wary of Chloe, "No, thanks."
Chloe smiled ashamedly, "A lot of things have moved o n, right?
Anna did not want to stimulate Chloe. It was the first time she saw Chloe since Chloe tried to jump off the building. She heard that Chloe was having a tough time. But it seemed good that she accepted life as it was and stopped trying to do stupid things.
"Well, it's all over." Anna said.
Chloe smiled awkwardly, "I look embarrassed, but I feel very safe."
"Anna...Oh, no, Ms. Hamilton, what would Gemma like to eat? ...I haven't thanked you properly for what you did for me." Chloe nervously handed over the menu. There were a lot of fatty things that Gemma couldn't eat.
"We just came in for a rest."Anna refused.
She worked as a waitress without high salary. The food in this restaurant was very expensive. Anna didn't want to let her spend too much money.
"I'm serious." Chloe looked at Gemma on the seat every now and then.
Anna tensed up and took a step away from Chloe to block her view of Gemma. After Bryan's kidnapping of Gemma, Anna was on the lookout for anything to happen to Gemma.
Anyway, after Chloe had cheated on her so many times, she decided to be more careful.
Chloe lowered her head when she saw Anna's act.
"You still won't forgive me."
"If only you could mend your ways! You don't have to treat me. I have business to attend to. I'm going now."
"Anna!"
Chloe called Anna.
"I do want to thank you."
Anna paused, "I see."
Gemma jumped down from the chair and held Anna's hand. She tilted her small head and looked at Chloe with her big eyes blinking. "Mommy, who is she?"
She was about to say "your aunt", but Anna broke in.
"She's someone Mommy knows."
Chloe was sad, but she still looked at Gemma with a smile.
"Hello." Gemma greeted her sweetly.
"You are a good girl." Chloe quickly took a lollipop and handed it to Gemma.
Gemma didn't take it. She said, "Weight control, no sugar."
Chloe was embarrassed.
"She's learning to dance, she's a little overweight, and she's getting it under control." Anna explained.
Chloe smiled and said, "I saw her dance competition video. She danced very well."
Chloe looked at Anna with a smile in her eyes, "I sincerely hope you are happy, I really do." Anna knew Chloe was talking about her, Liam and Gemma.
At this point, Nicole came out from behind and coughed softly.
"Mom, are you all right?" Chloe hurried over to Nicole and asked with concern.
I was just choked back in the kitchen." Nicole looked a t Anna and Gemma. She was not very happy to see them, but she didn't want to be hostile to them either. She said, "Don't leave, please. Let's have some tea. I finally see you."
Nicole ran to make tea.
"Mommy..."Gemma looked up at Anna and touched her own tummy.
Anna knew Gemma was hungry and couldn't wait.
"All right!" Anna seated Gemma in a chair and ordered spaghetti.
Anna could not help frowning slightly as she watched Chloe busily clearing the table and greeting guests.
"Why don't you get another job? You have had higher education. You don't have to serve dishes in a restaurant."
Chloe smiled sadly, "After I tried to jump off the building, few employers are willing to hire me. It is already not easy for me to replace this job."
That event did make a stir in Johannes City.
Chloe became famous in Johannes City for the first time when she married Bryan three years ago.
Everyone thought Chloe had no morals and that since she wanted to commit suicide because of a man, she probably had mental problems. Of course, employers did not want to hire her. "Then work hard." Anna didn't know what to say.
Chloe smiled, "You are more and more beautiful, more and more excellent, now I admit, whatever you do, you are better than me."
Anna watched Gemma as she devoured the pasta and reminded her, "Eat slowly and behave like a girl."
Gemma quickly wiped the corners of her mouth, then gracefully picked out a stick of pasta and ate it slowly.
Chloe looked at Gemma with admiration and could not help thinking about the child she had lost.
If her child had been alive, he would have been Gemma's age and as adorable as Gemma.
