Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam)
Chapter 829 I Don't Ask for Anything in Return

Some reporters made a living by digging others' secrets, especially the gossip reporters. Celebrities' privacies were their oxygen. Anna was so famous in Johannes City now. Now if Anna coughed and they could publish the news that she was pregnant again. Anna kept honking her car's horn, hoping the reporters would step aside.

But the reporters wouldn't listen to her. They beat on the window even harder, hoping to break it and get Anna out for their interview.

Anna quickly called the kindergarten, hoping that the kindergarten can send some security guards to keep order.

"Ms. Hamilton. Ms. Hamilton..."

"You are still married to Mr. Collins and have recently become very close to your ex-husband, Mr. Ackman. There's a rumor going around that you two are possibly married again. Now people are talking about your ex-boyfriend, Mr. Dawson. They say that your daughter is your ex-boyfriend's kid."

"Ms. Hamilton, can you get off the car and talk to us about it?"

"Everyone says that you are a promiscuous woman. Do you have an explanation for that?"

The kindergarten's security guards finally ran out and pushed the reporters away to make way for Anna's car.

"This is the school. Please keep quiet and don't disturb the kids in the kindergarten." The security guards shouted.

Anna put her foot on the gas pedal and got her car out quickly.

Her hands were tightly clenched, and her pink lips were pursed subconsciously.

'I've no idea who started the rumor.'

'How could Gemma be Bryan's kid?'

Suddenly there was a name in Anna's mind.

'Bryan?'

'It must be him.'

"Ethan, where are you now? The kindergarten is now surrounded by the reporters. I can't get into the kindergarten. We'd better get Gemma out of here just t obe safe."

"I've just had a meeting and I'll be on my way to school. " Ethan quickly stood up and ran out.

But even when Ethan arrived at the kindergarten, his situation wasn't better than Anna's.

The reporters also surrounded Ethan's car.

But Ethan brought his bodyguards with him. The bodyguards pushed all the reporters away.

The reporters held up their microphones and shouted at Ethan.

"Mr. Collins, it has been revealed that your wife's kid wasn't her ex-husband's, but her ex-boyfriend's. How do you feel about it?"

"Do you know anything about Gemma's story?"

"Has Ms. Hamilton been keeping this a secret? It's been revealed now. Does it affect your relationship?"

"Some people say that you and your wife's relationship broke down a long time ago. Does it have anything to do with Gemma's story?" "Mr. Collins, can you talk about it?"

The voices of the reporters were ringing in his ears.

Ethan did his best to get closer to the school gate in his car.

"Mr. Collins, talk about it please."

"Mr. Collins, don't leave please."

"Please talk to us about it. Don't you want to say anything about this incident?"

"What's Gemma's story? Who is her biological father?"

Ethan was sullen. His eyes, which had always been warm, were cold now.

"I have nothing to say about any of your questions. The kid is innocent. Please don't disturb her life." After saying this, Ethan got off the car and walked to the kindergarten. "Hey, Mr. Collins, can we have an interview with you?"

The reporters jostled desperately, and the security guards and the bodyguards could barely keep order.

Anna hid herself not far away. She was very anxious and angrily grasped the steering wheel in her hands.

She didn't expect Liam to show up at that moment.

Anna slid down the window with sparkling eyes as if she had seen a savior.

"You are here."

Liam put his foot on the brake and his car came to a stop just parallel to Anna's.

He also slid down the window and looked at Anna in the car opposite.

He looked at Anna with his dark eyes reassuringly. Anna, who had been in a panic, suddenly felt inexplicably relieved.

No matter how serious the problem was, she believed this man would replace a way to solve it.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Liam said slowly.

Anna nodded hard and slid up the window to avoid being caught by the reporters.

Liam also slid up the window, and his car headed for the kindergarten.

The reporters saw that Liam arrived, the scene became even more chaotic and out of control.

Liam's car was followed by six black cars. The bodyguards all dressed in black got off the six cars. They lined up and pushed all the reporters aside to make way for Liam. Reporters asked increasingly tough questions.

"Mr. Ackman, it has been revealed that Gemma isn't your kid, but Bryan's. Will you get along well with your ex-wife?"

"Mr. Ackman, did you ever think your ex-wife was so promiscuous?"

"Were you also deceived by your ex-wife about the kid's story?"

Anna was sitting in the car not far away. She felt very angry as she watched the live video, her heart pounding.

Liam glanced at the reporters with his cold eyes. His sharp eyes made the crowd instantly quiet down.

Ethan stood aside and took a look at Liam.

It seemed like the right time for him to reveal Gemma's story.

He cleared his throat, and his gentle voice was a little low-pitched. "Unfortunately, Gemma isn't Anna's and my kid. But I always regard Gemma as my own kid. Gemma and I are also very close, like father and daughter."

What Ethan said didn't make a stir.

Because everyone already knew that Gemma wasn't Ethan's kid.

"It is unusual that Mr. Collins should have such affection for Ms. Hamilton. But what do you get for your affection? I'm afraid your affection has been rewarded by a marital crisis that has torn your family apart." "I don't ask for anything in return."

Then Ethan said, "I've liked Anna since I was very young. I've fallen in love with her secretly all these years. Whoever she likes, she's the woman I've ever loved the most in my life. The things and the people she cares about are what I care about and who I want to protect."

"So my marriage to Anna has always been one-sided. I kept her trapped in this marriage with my meticulous care and thoughtfulness."

Ethan's words made it very clear.

Ethan meant that their relationship had been broken for a long time, but he didn't want to let go and had been trapping Anna in this marriage.

"Mr. Collins, has your marriage finished yet?" "So you say that you don't care who Ms. Hamilton likes. And who does Ms. Hamilton like?" Ethan slowly looked at Liam standing next to him. There was a touching smile on Ethan's warm face.

Suddenly, everyone knew that Anna's crush was her ex-husband Liam.
