Chapter 723 Not Angry
Chapter 723 Not Angry
Ethan and Anna took Gemma to the stage to prepare for her performance.
Liam curved his lips faintly, watching Gemma skip along.
Despite his smile, he seemed a cold and domineering man. Almost everyone was afraid to approach him.
They wondered if Liam came to this kindergarten for a child.
It clicked when they saw Liam fix his eyes on Gemma, even though the crowd didn't know what had happened.
Anna was upset.
Ethan looked at Anna and tried to reassure her. "Don't worry. I don't think he'll make trouble here."
After all, Liam was Gemma's father. He wouldn't ruin this important day for Gemma.
"Anna, Gemma is going to perform soon. We need to take a video for her." Ethan handed the camera to
Anna.
Anna was no longer worried when she saw Gemma's happy face.
She agreed that Liam would not be so stupid as to make Gemma unhappy.
Gemma came on stage.
Gemma wore a green dress and danced with other kids. Although she was a little clumsy, her movements were accurate. She was so lovely, concentrating on dancing. All the audience was
charmed by her.
Liam gazed at Gemma happily.
It was the first time he had seen Gemma dance. He was so excited and near to tears.
He wanted to pick up Gemma and tell her how beautiful and great she was and that he felt proud of her.
But...
He couldn't do that.
Gemma didn't admit him as her dad.
He slowly curled his lips up.
James was shocked and extremely excited since he had never seen Liam smile so tenderly before.
The performance ended. Gemma bowed to the audience amid loud applause, and then left the stage with her partners hand in hand.
"Baby, you're great." Anna hugged Gemma and kissed her on the cheek.
"Thank you for teaching me, Mommy," Gemma said sweetly and snuggled up to Anna.
"What about me?" Ethan was jealous.
"Thank you too, Daddy." Gemma giggled. She stood up straight and leaned lazily against Ethan.
"You have inborn talent," interjected Liam proudly.
Gemma rolled her big eyes at Liam and said crisply," It's because of my mommy and daddy's good genes and has nothing to do with you. I remember we didn't invite you, big bad guy."
The crowd were shocked.
Everyone knew that Anna was Liam's ex-wife and there were constant rumors about them in the Johannes City.
Liam must come here for Gemma as he was watching Gemma all the time.
Everyone gradually realized that Liam might be Gemma's father.
Anna hurriedly pulled Gemma behind her when she saw those surprised faces, and glared coldly at Liam.
Gemma peeked at Liam from behind Anna. She stuck her tongue out and made faces at Liam. She seemed mischievous and cute.
Liam was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
"Big bad guy!" Gemma gave Liam a black look.
Those parents whispered, "He's Mr. Ackman."
"How dare Gemma call him names!"
"And Mr. Ackman isn't annoyed!"
Anna rubbed Gemma's little head, feeling that she was rude. "My little princess, didn't I teach you to be polite? How could you yell at your elder? Be good, call him Uncle Liam."
Uncle Liam...
Liam felt depressed and hurt at this moment.
"Bad Uncle Liam." Gemma made a face at Liam again.
Children were innocent. Once they had a certain impression of someone or something, it was hard to convert them.
She had thought Liam was the big bad guy since she just knew him. Even though she felt that Liam wasn't that bad later, she still called him big bad guy, which had become a nickname for Liam.
After all, she were naive and didn't really understand what big bad guy meant.
She thought probably it meant a bad person like Liam.
Liam's face became frosty.
He said unhappily in a low, mellow voice, "No, it sounds even worse than big bad guy."
Anna asked his daughter to call him Uncle Liam. She really knew how to hurt him.
Liam was upset but controlled his temper.
He had enough time and patience.
He believed that Gemma would call him Daddy one day.
Gemma's kindergarten graduation party ended and the parents left with their children.
The principal of the kindergarten was eager to get in with Liam, but Liam had gone away quietly with James and several bodyguards after the party.
Anna heaved a sigh of relief as Liam didn’t stir up any trouble.
They went back home. Anna looked at the photos that she had taken for Gemma during her performance. After thinking for a while, she chose the best two photos and took them to the prison.
"Please pass this to Daniel," Anna said and handed the bag of Gemma's photos to the prison guard.
"Aren't you going in to see Mr. Hamilton?" The guard asked.
"No." She looked inside the prison with a yearning look flashing across her eyes.
She didn't want to see Daniel because it would pain her.
"Okay, I'll give it to him," The prison guard said respectfully.
After all, the Hamilton family was wealthy and powerful in the Johannes City. The guard didn't dare t
o give Anna the cold-shoulder.
Besides, Anna had given them money. She wanted them to take care of Daniel.
"Thanks!"
Anna didn't leave at once. She stood nervously at the door, waiting for the guard.
After a while, the guard came out.
"Mr. Hamilton was very happy and cried when he saw the pictures. He said he was sorry for what he did, and he wanted me to tell you something."
"What is it?" Anna asked eagerly.
"He said that he would redeem himself after he got out. H
Anna's eyes darkened. She drooped her long lashes to hide the gloom in her eyes.
"I have another request. I’ve found a doctor for him. He is a specialist in digestive diseases. Can my father see this doctor?"
The prison guard thought for a moment. "Yes, but the doctor must go through our security check and it will b e stringent."
"All right."
The next moment Anna's cell phone rang.
