Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 285

Chloe saw a man lurking suspiciously outside the gate and shouted.

The man hurriedly hid behind a large tree.

"Who's there! Come out, now! I'm calling security!" Chloe shouted in fear.

The man appeared from behind the tree, motioning for Chloe to keep her voice down.

"Chloe, it's me, Daddy! Shush! Don’t shout! Don't let anyone else see us!"

Chloe's eyes widened in shock, expression full of disbelief as she stared at the man in front of her.

Even though the sky was already dark, beneath the dim street lights, she could clearly see the middle-aged man's face.

His hair was messy and disheveled. Stubbles covered his face like small black needles, his clothes were dirty and torn. He looked like a beggar.

"I don't know you!"

Chloe turned to run but the man reached out and covered her mouth with his palm then tugged her into the trees behind him.

"Don't call out, don't shout! I've been mapping out the area for the past few days, I know the guards don't

patrol this area at this time."

Chloe was pressed into the tree by the middle-aged man, "Come on, listen to me. I really am your father."

There was a weird smell emanating from his rough, calloused palm. Chloe felt nauseous.

She pushed him away, and glared at him scornfully, rubbed her face, and shouted angrily, "I don't know you, I'm not your daughter."

Chloe wanted to leave, but he stopped her once again.

"Chloe, how come you don't know me? Take a look again, I'm your father, Bruce Walker!

But it makes sense, when I was jailed you were just a child, and now in a blink of an eye, you're all grown up ... Now you're pregnant and getting married."

Bruce studied Chloe from head to toe, his face full of smiles.

Chloe glared at her furiously, and said coolly, "My surname is Hamilton, Chloe Hamilton, how can you be my father! Go away, if not I'll shout for help and say you tried to rob me."

His breathing paused, tone colored by anger, "Chloe, you are exactly like your mother. You pretend not to know me the moment you start doing well!"

"Who do you think you are? What right do you have to criticize me and my mother!” "Ha, I don't have the right? I am your father and Nicole

Baine's husband. Why don't you tell me whether I have the right or not?"

Chloe lowered her voice and shouted in anger, "You are already divorced, I'll say it again, my surname is now Hamilton!"

Bruce laughed coldly, "Divorced? I didn't agree to that, your damn mother tricked me!"

At Chloe’s furious expression, he immediately softened his stance and tried to rouse her sympathy instead.

"Yes, you're right. You're a Hamilton now, but no matter what, you're still my daughter no? I’m in trouble now, you won't leave me to die will you?"

"What do you want?"

"I don't want anything, ha-ha... I heard you're marrying into the Dawsons. They're a rich family, they have all the money they need." Bruce laughed rapaciously.

"You want money?” Chloe sucked in a cold breath.

Bruce's face lit up, "Daddy is facing some financial difficulties now, I need to borrow some money from you."

"Don't call yourself my father! You're not my father!" Chloe's heart raced in her chest.

No wonder recently she's been seeing a familiar yet strange figure, appear in and out of her sight.

It was Bruce Walker after all!

Her biological father!

"Don't approach Bryan!" Chloe widened her eyes, fury enveloping her.

She hurriedly pulled a card out of her purse and stuffed it into his hands, "There’s 40,000 in here, the password is my birthday! This is all the money I have! I don't have any more!

Don't come and ruin my life! I don't want to see you again!"

Bruce looked at the card in his hands, "This is more like it! But don't be so cruel, I'm still your father."

"Shut up! I don't want to see you ever again!" Chloe screamed in anger, holding her stomach uncomfortably.

Bruce didn't want to cause a scene, he said soothingly, "Alright, alright, I'll leave now! Take care of the baby!"

Bruce glanced about and scurried away.

Chloe breathed out deep, ragged breaths. When she saw that there was no one around, she heaved a sigh o f relief and ran back home.

Anna was on her way to the kitchen for a cup of water and noticed Chloe's pale face, she asked, "What's wrong? Why are you running?"

Chloe jumped in shock, sucking in a deep breath," You, you... what did you see?"

Anna was confused, "See what?"

"No... nothing! Absolutely nothing! I'm not feeling well, I'll go to my room now. I need some rest. Don't disturb me." Chloe held onto the railing and heaved herself up the stairs.

Anna shook her head, "Crazy girl."

Right then, Daniel and Nicole returned home. When Nicole walked in she chuckled and said, "Chloe, the dress that I ordered for you is here. Wear it at the tea ceremony when you get married to Bryan." Nicole said happily and pulled Chloe inside to check out the dress, ignoring Anna's feelings.

Daniel looked to be in a good mood too, he laughed and said, "Put it on and show me. My daughter must b e the prettiest bride in the world."

Anna didn't want to see the three of them put on a fake happy family show so she took quick steps up the stairs, but her father's voice drifted in from behind her.

"Anna, Grandmother Dawson said they'll choose an auspicious day for your sister and Bryan’s wedding. When the time comes you are to be her bridesmaid." "What?!"
