Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 10

Almost all the esteemed guests had arrived. On the contrary, the future daughter-in-law of the Dawson family had not arrived. Whispers arose among the crowd.

"This Hamilton lady sure is pompous. I can't believe she's late for her grandmother-in-law's birthday party.”

"Grandmother Dawson's future granddaughter-in-law i s late for her birthday party. How embarrassing for the Dawson family."

Anxious, Daniel called Anna dozens of times.

Grandmother Dawson, too, was constantly sending people out to check if Anna had arrived.

Humiliated, Daniel’s expression turned darker than a storm.

Nicole whispered to him, "Anna's behavior has become quite intolerable these few days. Could she be acting so arrogantly because she knows she’s taking over Lincoln Group soon? I can't believe she would embarrass even Grandmother Dawson.”

Daniel scoffed. "Humph! What a naive little brat! Who does she think she is? Without the help of the Dawson family, her transition into Lincoln Group would never be smooth sailing!”

Nicole wrapped her arm around his, gently stroking his chest. "Danny, all these years, you've toiled so hard for Lincoln Group, yet now, you are forced to retire. Do you think it's worth it?"

Daniel turned to Nicole with a confused look.

Nicole hurriedly smiled and explained, "I just think Anna is too young to take over the company. I’m worried that she might undo your years of hard work.

"Grandpa Lincoln is busy recuperating overseas. He doesn't pay attention to what’s happening in the company anymore. If the company goes bankrupt under Anna's leadership, how will you break the news to Grandpa Lincoln?"

Daniel looked down, pondering hard on Nicole’s words.

Although Nicole did not know what Daniel was thinking at the moment, at least she knew that her words had not fallen on deaf ears.

Amelia Dawson walked over to Bryan with a smirk on her face. "Wow, your fiancee is so humiliating.

Perhaps the Hamilton family had always viewed you with contempt, yet you still got engaged with Anna. Every day, you run around her like her little puppy dog."

Bryan’s expression darkened with rage. He clenched his fists tight, his veins popping. Nonetheless, he managed to reply to his elder sister in a calm manner.

"Anna has some matters to attend to. That's why she’s late."

Amelia snickered. "What could be more important than grandma’s birthday party? Face it, Bryan, Anna has always looked down on you."

Bryan endured her insults.

Suddenly, Amelia held her arms to her chest and twirled in her spot. Following that was a series of stinging insults hurled toward Bryan. "Do you think anyone believes that securing a wife from a noble family would mean they'll magically turn into a noble of pureblood? Ah, I guess that's what it's like being the only child. Every day, you are showered with gold, yet gold can never wash away the stench coming from within your bones."

Bryan stared loathingly at Amelia. A tinge of blood-red emerged in his eyes.

To him, being called an only child was equivalent to a stab through the heart.
