Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 346

"Jamie, I've seen him before," Anna suddenly said.

Jamie snapped his head towards her, "Where? How did you see him when even I couldn't?”

"During my practical assessment, at Liam's company."

"What?! He... the person he likes is Liam Ackman, the man you’re with?"

Jamie was stunned and forgot to lower his voice, a sharp voice drifting straight into Wilson's ears.

Wilson's expression darkened like an impending storm. His gaze shot over at them and landing on Anna.

She was dead. Anna sighed under her breath.

She laughed dryly, waved her fingers, "Hi, what a coincidence, you're having a drink here too. Enjoy yourself, the owner is a wonderful man. You can even stay the night if you're too drunk, he’ll accompany you."

Even at a moment like this, she didn't forget to help out her friend, what a good friend she was.

The air around Wilson was ice-cold. He approached her step by side, aquamarine eyes shooting daggers of ice at her.

"You’re with him?"

To be honest, Wilson had long since known that Anna and Liam were an item.

His special treatment of her during the practical assessment was enough for him to guess.

And the rumors between them were the root of his bad mood.

Wilson thought Liam only approached Anna to get rid of himself.

Even if he knew it was just an excuse or a way to comfort himself, at least he felt better believing that lie.

But now after hearing those rumors, he had lost even the very excuse he used to comfort himself.

Anna shook her head fervently.

What a joke!

The truth was she wasn't, but even if she was now was not the time to admit it!

Wilson turned towards Jamie and asked, "You like m e?"

Jamie froze, then his eyes shone and he nodded excitedly.

Wilson smiled evilly, "Then who did you say she was with?"

Bedazzled by his mesmerizing smile, the words 'Liam Ackman’ almost flew out of his mouth.

Seeing Anna shake her head furiously at him, he realized his mistake and hurriedly pursed his lips, squinting his eyes and smiling at Wilson instead.

"OK!"

Wilson turned to Anna, staring into her eyes intently.

"Do you like him? Or should I ask, do you love him?"

Anna froze.

What was happening?

Why was he asking her this?

But still, she pondered his question.

How did she feel about him?

Did she like him?

She thought she did.

But love?

She didn't know what love was supposed to feel like.

It seemed too imaginary, too elusive, too tormenting...

Seeing the complex changes in her eyes, Wilson's eyes dimmed and he gave a wry smile.

Just then, the door to the bar was opened again.

Seeing the newcomer, the people in the bar gasped again...

Wilson glanced towards the door with the corners of his eyes, eyes shining brightly throughout his

aquamarine pupils, and he said in pleasant surprise," Charles!"

"Charles!"

After Wilson's cry of joy, Anna and Jamie both shouted too.

Jamie was shocked because Wilson’s social media handle was 'Loyal Charles’.

Whilst Anna was stunned because the person who spent hundreds of thousands on lucky draws online to help her, the one who had been reminding her, caring about her, even going so far as to threaten her...

He was in fact....

This was the first time she had pinched his cheek after so long.

What was his skincare routine, how could his skin be better than hers?

Liam looked at the helpless Wilson in front of him, frowning in displeasure.

Why wasn't he in the Grand Lexus Hotel, coming here and ruining his evening?

He picked Wilson up and moved him to the side, the difference between their frames was minimal but his actions looked smooth and effortless, not looking out o f place at all.

Liam looked at Anna who was still staring stupidly at her own hand and grinned slyly, "How’s my skin? How does it feel?"

"Smooth, tender, tight...” Anna murmured under her breath.

Her head snapped upwards and met Liam's cunning gaze. Her porcelain complexion flushed red in an instant.

She grabbed her glass of wine on the bar top and gulped it down, holding the glass to hide her awkwardness.

Then, she wriggled her eyebrows at Jamie, but he didn't see her at all.

His eyes remained fixed on Wilson.

The more sorrow Wilson's gaze contained as he looked at Liam, the more hurt shone through Jamie’s eyes.

An interesting situation surfaced in the Predicament Bar, Anna was looking at Jamie, Jamie was staring at Wilson, Wilson was gazing at Liam and finally, Liam had his eyes fixed on Anna.

It was a cycle.

The crowd glanced stupidly at the four of them, they had just shaken themselves free of the impact caused by Wilson, and then Liam appeared, hitting them in the chest twice in a row.

The Predicament was always filled with handsome faces, but what was happening tonight?

These two guys were off the charts!

In comparison to them, everyone present looked like spindly gargoyles.

But what was happening between them?

The atmosphere felt weird, like some sort of twisted love rectangle...

Anna didn't know how to handle the awkwardness in the air, sucked in a deep breath, and turned towards Liam.

"Why are you here?"

"I think I should be the one asking you that. This is a gay bar, or could it be..."

He pulled out his words, eyes sweeping over the crowd and aiming in the direction of the bathrooms. "You're here to relive the experience?"
