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

Chapter 360 A Good Opportunity

"Thanks, Grandma." Anna said.

"I also put down your name as the beneficiary of the insurance policy.”

Anna sighed. Grandma was being very considerate, but she was unsure whether the others would understand Grandma's kindness.

Nicole and Chloe exchanged glances again when they recovered from the shock.

Their faces were awkward and pale, but they were relieved that Grandma did not hold them accountable for what they did previously.

However, their eyes were full of jealousy and hatred when they saw the bracelet on Anna's hand.

They knew that the reason why grandma made this announcement publicly in front of them was to warn them: that she knew about all the things they did.

She would not look into the case anymore, but at the same time, they should not try to steal the bracelet again.

Nicole and Chloe met each other's gaze.

The feeling of losing something that was almost in your grasp was terrible.

Now all they could do was stand aside and hide their jealousy.

Grandma Dawson was satisfied that her intentions had been served. She invited everyone to sit down and asked Liam to send her back to her room. 1

Before she left, Grandma Dawson looked at Chloe's flat stomach and her face and commented unhappily.

"Stop wearing make-up when you are still pregnant. It's not good for the baby."

Chloe was nervous. She nodded and promised she wouldn't.

She had no other solution.

She looked very pale after the surgery. People would notice something was wrong if she did not put on some make-up. The situation might become worse if she was asked to visit the hospital for an examination again.

After Grandma Dawson and Liam left, Chloe felt uneasy.

Anna found Chloe acting a bit strange today though she did not know why.

Then, Bryan came home from work. Chloe threw herself at him like a butterfly attracted to a flower. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Bryan..."

Bryan was planning to push Chloe off when he saw Anna, but Chloe was faster and hugged him tighter.

“Bryan, did you miss me a lot yesterday when I wasn’t

home?"

Bryan was annoyed, "Yes I did."

He did not dare say no. Grandma would get mad at him again if Chloe complained about him.

Anna was disgusted by Chloe’s actions. She did not want to see Chloe acting all lovey-dovey in front of her.

She stood up and went outside to the garden.

Nicole gave Chloe a dark glance.

Chloe got the hint and her eyes turned dark too.

She dragged Bryan over to the sofa.

Bryan was looking outside, searching the garden for Anna.

Chloe’s big eyes were wet. She looked at Bryan pitifully.

"Bryan, why didn't you talk to me? Did I do anything wrong to make you unhappy?"

Bryan’s mind had wandered off along with Anna, his impatience reflected in his voice when he replied," What else do you want me to say? I'm already busy with work so stop questioning me and just take good care of the baby."

Chloe held her stomach subconsciously. Their baby was gone. A strong bout of jealousy coursed through her chest when Bryan kept looking outside.

What's so good about Anna? Why couldn't Bryan forget about her?

Did he know that Liam and Anna already slept together? Did he still want to fight with his uncle over a woman?

Bryan glanced at Chloe impatiently.

"You were the one who sent me the picture, right? Just tell me next time. You don't need to beat around the bush."

Chloe pouted. Wasn’t that more convincing?

He wouldn't believe her if she told it to his face.

He might even think that she was trying to set Anna u P-

Chloe nodded obediently.

"Ok, Bryan. I was just worried you might be too angry. So, what do you plan to do with them? We can't possibly call her auntie, right?”

"Do you think I would want that? She must capture uncle's heart if she wants to have him for herself."

"But judging from his personality, uncle wouldn't waste his time maintaining a relationship with a woman. He will get bored of Anna soon."

"Are we just going to wait and do nothing? Anna is the rightful heir to the Lincoln Group, and with the additional support of Mr. Ackman, Daddy will have to pass the company to her." "By then, you will lose the support of the Lincoln

Group!”

Chloe hugged Bryan's arm and laid her head on his chest, "Daddy told me that he would give me some shares if he has the company.”

Bryan looked at her in surprise, "You still want shares i n the Lincoln Group?"

Chloe looked into his eyes and asked, "You don’t?"

Bryan grew silent.

He wanted not just part of the shares but the whole Lincoln Group.

Initially, he endured Anna's cold arrogant attitude because he was interested in her family background.

Now since she became beautiful, he wanted to claim her as his too.

Looking at Bryan’s greedy face, Chloe planted a kiss o n his lips.

"Bryan, although I'm his stepdaughter, my father still loves me. After I get my share, I will transfer everything to you. What do you say?”

Bryan looked at her. His impatience had turned into tenderness. He squeezed her face lightly and said, "I know you are good to me. I should have made time for you but I've been really busy with work recently. I will make it up to you in the future.”

"As long as you know how much I love you wholeheartedly."

With that, her fingers slid down his chest... pinching and kneading slightly, eyes staring at him seductively.

Bryan’s chest tightened, arousal burning in his veins. He suddenly missed the moments when they shared i n bed. He slid his arms around her thin waist and was planning to carry her to his bedroom...

Chloe was anxious, she couldn't be with Bryan now.

She looked towards her mother for help.

Nicole quickly stopped them.

"Where are you going? It’s almost time for lunch."

Nicole ordered the servants to prepare Chloe's supplements.

"Chloe, you haven't finished your supplements. Eat this.

Remember what the doctor told you? You have to get some sunlight once in a while. It's good for you and the baby. Later, I'll accompany you out for a walk.”

Bryan felt both unhappy and slightly awkward. He could not believe his plans with Chloe had been interfered with by his mother-in-law. He smiled awkwardly.

"Thanks, Mom. I will go back now. I have been busy with work and haven’t gotten enough rest.”

Nicole glared at Chloe after Bryan left.

She dragged Chloe to the garden.

"How can you miss out on this good opportunity?" Nicole hinted at Chloe to look at Anna who was standing in the near distance.
