Chloe rushed toward Anna and shoved her furiously...
"Ah!"
Everyone shrieked.
Bryan widened his eyes and stared unblinkingly at Chloe and Anna.
Initially, he had the chance to stop Chloe, but at the same time, he also yearned to know if Anna's eyes were truly blind or if she was just pretending that whole time.
When he was in Anna’s room, he felt that her eyes were no different from that of an ordinary person. He felt that she could see everything but refused to admit it. However, he had no evidence to prove it.
With Chloe pushing Anna, the truth behind her vision would finally be revealed!
Anna stared dumbstruck at Chloe who was pouncing toward her. At that moment, she did not know what to do.
She could only choose between letting Chloe shove her and getting injured from the fall or dodging Chloe's attack but ending up revealing the truth behind her blindness.
Anna made her decision within that short second. She had chosen to close her eyes and subtle clench her fists, preparing for Chloe to pounce onto her and bracing herself for the pain of the fall...
However, at this time of imminent peril, Liam darted toward Anna and held the woman on the platform in his arms. He pushed Chloe away with his other hand.
"Ah!"
Following the scream, Chloe fell backward...
Anna felt the world spinning around her. Before she knew it, she had already fallen into a broad and firm embrace.
Her eyes shot open only to be met with the tense expression on Liam’s handsome face. Anna's heart could not help but skip a beat.
He...
He saved her!
When Bryan saw Chloe falling, the color instantly drained from his face. He rushed forward to catch her.
There was no way he would let anything happen to the child in Chloe's womb! Otherwise, he would be left with nothing!
Liam hugged Anna tightly in his arms. He glared at Chloe furiously. His voice was as cold as the devil’s.
"Ms. Chloe, are you trying to commit assault?"
Chloe leaned against Bryan's embrace, staring terrified at Liam. Her face was as pale as paper.
"I just...” She simply wanted to check if Anna's eyes were truly blind.
She had harbored this suspicion in her heart for a long time. Nonetheless, no matter how many times she probed Anna, she still could not get conclusive evidence.
However, if Liam was to accuse her of aggravated assault, the incident would turn into a huge deal that involved breaking the law and going to court!
"Uncle... It wasn't..." Chloe shook her head frantically and tried to explain, yet for a moment, she could not think of any appropriate explanations.
Bryan hurriedly explained, "Uncle! Chloe's dress is too long. She accidentally fell just now! It wasn’t intentional! She has a baby right now. Why would she try to harm others?"
Bryan deliberately brought the child into the conversation. He had hoped that Liam would value the child in Chloe's womb for the sake of Grandmother Dawson and forgive Chloe because of that.
Liam's ink-black pupils slowly constricted. The expression on his face was menacingly frigid.
"How dare you do something like this in front of me, M s. Chloe!"
Terrified, Anna's heart shuddered. Tears welled up in her eyes as she shook her head frantically. "Uncle... I didn't... It really wasn't intentional!"
She did not think that Liam would step in and save Anna from danger. On top of that, his speed was incredible.
Chloe's heart thumped violently with fear. She clutched her trembling hands tightly onto Bryan, hoping that he could protect her.
Otherwise, Liam’s gaze could kill her right then and there.
Anna leaned against Liam's embrace and gently held his large hands. She shook her head lightly.
Liam's brows furrowed together lightly. He took a glance at her with his chilling eyes.
"Forget it," Anna muttered.
Liam's brows knitted together again, yet he did not say a word after that.
Seeing this scene made the spectators' disdain toward Chloe grow even deeper.
