Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam)

Chapter 778 Why Didn't You Dare to Look at Me?

Anna didn’t want to quarrel with Liam in public.

She had always wanted to hide the truth that Gemma was Liam's daughter, but this seemed to be impossible now. Looking at them and Gemma in Liam's arms, all the crew members guessed the truth.

With Liam's noble identity, he could by no means accept Ethan's child with good intentions. Besides, Gemma looked exactly like him.

Everyone now knew that Gemma was his child.

It turned out that Anna was pregnant with Liam’s child when she divorced him.

No one dared to say a word, because they knew that Liam was in a bad mood now. Even though he looked a t Anna and Gemma smilingly, his face was already dark with rage.

He only treated Anna and Gemma with a good attitude. As for others, he didn't care about their feelings at all.

Sure enough, he vented his anger to his employees.

"What are you looking at? Contact others and concentrate on your work now! As for those on holiday, ask them to come back to work!”

Since some employees hadn't gone back home for several years, Liam gave them a holiday this year. This was why he came to the company with Anna on New Year's Day.

Of course, he had his own reason for doing this.

He wanted to take this opportunity to have more private time with Anna and spend New Year’s Eve with her.

However, since Gemma just got lost, Liam was no longer in the mood to reach his purpose now. He just wanted to take good care of her daughter and maintain the good impression he had made in front of Anna.

Everyone hurried away to get busy with their work

Holding Gemma in his arms, Liam coaxed her in a soft voice, which was quite different from the way he was angry just now.

"Gemma, Dad will take you to dinner.”

Gemma was glad to hear this and she kept clapping her hands excitedly.

"Okay! I can't wait now."

Seeing that her daughter was so delighted, Anna didn't want to disappoint her, and her expression softened a little bit.

"Gemma, Mommy will take you to dinner."

Liam hurriedly said, "I'll take you to eat all your

favorite food.”

Since his promise sounded more tempting, Gemma's eyes immediately lit up. She clapped her little hands and said, "Okay!"

Holding Gemma more tightly, Liam turned to look at Anna.

He was sure that the only way to win Anna's heart back was to care more about Gemma.

"OK, let's go now." With Gemma in his arms, Liam turned and walked out of the film set.

Anna had no choice but to follow him.

"Where are you going to take her? It's cold now, and you’d better help Gemma put her coat on," Anna said.

Liam didn't answer her, but a slight smile appeared on his face.

He didn't have to ask Anna to catch up with him. As long as Gemma was with him, Anna could no longer draw a line with him.

Anna was worried that Liam couldn’t take good care o f Gemma, so she had to follow him.

After a while, they arrived at a restaurant.

Liam ordered many of Gemma's favorite foods for her, and each of them was healthy for children.

Since Liam was so thoughtful, Anna's anger towards him dissipated a little.

Gemma became thirsty and wanted to have a drink, but Liam handed her a glass of water.

"I don’t want to drink water! Give me juice and cola." Sitting in the chair, Gemma kicked her short legs and clamored.

"Water is the healthiest drink. Do you want to be unhealthy?" Liam said patiently.

Tilting her head, Gemma thought for a moment before saying, "I certainly don't want to be unhealthy."

"Then we will drink water.”

"But I don't like it! It's not sweet at all."

"Take a sip and savor it, and then you will taste the sweetness of water." After saying that, Liam took a sip of water and savored it.

Gemma looked at him with sparkling eyes. However, she still doubted Liam’s words after seeing the satisfied look on his face.

"But why didn’t I think the water was sweet before?"

"That's because you didn't taste it carefully. If you try i t again, you will find that the water is really sweet," Liam said, but his eyes fell on Anna.

Anna was like a glass of water, which needed to be savored. It might be bland, but there was a hint of sweetness in it.

Holding the cup, Gemma drank a mouthful of water, and then she imitated Liam to savor it.

"It... it seems to be a little sweet.”

Anna couldn't help chuckling.

Children were like a blank sheet of paper. No matter what an adult said, they would believe him without any doubt.

This glass of water certainly had no taste, but now Gemma thought it was sweet.

Liam then said to Gemma with great patience, "If you take another sip, you will find it to be sweeter."

"Really?"

Liam nodded and said, "Yes."

Liam took another sip and smacked her lips. "It...it seems to be true."

"Take another sip and savor it. It must be sweeter than last time," Liam said.

Without any hesitation, Gemma gulped a mouthful of water and then slowly savored it.

"You’re right, but I don’t want to drink water anymore."

"Well, then let's have dinner now." Liam handed Gemma a fork.

Holding the fork happily, Gemma began to eat the noodles.

Anna didn’t expect that Liam easily solved the problem that Gemma didn't like to drink water.

Ethan also tried to convince Gemma into drinking more water before, but every time, she gave in to Gemma’s pleading and made her a glass of juice.

It surprised Anna that Liam had such a clever way to deal with children.

Seeing Anna's surprised look, Liam smiled at her.

Gemma was his daughter, and he had great confidence in educating her.

After all, Gemma was just a little girl, whose intelligence was no match for his.

Liam suddenly held Anna's hand under the table.

Anna wanted to get rid of him, but Liam held her hand more tightly.

She kept struggling, but Liam didn't intend to let go of her.

Afraid that Gemma would notice something, Anna didn't dare to make obvious movements. In the end, she could only let Liam hold her hand.

Raising her head, Anna glared at Liam. However, she saw Liam wear a quite serious look.

"It broke my heart to see you cry just now,” he said in a gentle voice.

Upon hearing those affectionate words, Anna trembled slightly. Then she found that Liam gazed lovingly at her.

She immediately looked away and focused her attention on her plate.

She was afraid that if she took another look at him, she would be attracted by his handsome face.

"Why didn't you dare to look at me?" Liam asked.

"There is no specific reason. I just don't want to see you." Anna took a deep breath and pulled back her hand from his.

"Are you afraid of being attracted by me?" Liam gently held her hand again with his slender fingers.

Anna was stunned for a moment, and then she withdrew her hand.

Gemma looked up and asked Anna while chewing a piece of meat, "Mommy, is he telling the truth? I've told you many times not to be easily attracted by men."

Both Anna and Liam were rendered speechless.

Seeing the serious look on Gemma's face, they couldn't help laughing out.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
