Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 506

A terrible feeling overwhelmed Anna rapidly.

She went home at a loss, while Gemma was back from the kindergarten and catching butterflies at the garden.

Gemma twisted her waist, running hard after the butterflies.

"Mommy, you're back..."

Gemma waved her short arms and came running with her chubby legs at the sight of Anna.

The servant was running here to help Gemma, Anna shook her hands, "Do your things first. I'll take care of her."

"Yes, Mrs. Collins." The servant answered and then left.

Anna picked Gemma up and sat in the chair in the garden, kissing her daughter on the lovely face quietly.

However Gemma was a sensitive and smart girl, she quickly felt Anna depressed.

She blinked her beautiful eyes, "Mommy, are you tired because your work is very hard?"

"I'm not tired."

Anna smiled faintly, pained to see Gemma's face which was a copy of Liam, "Gemma, do you like your Daddy?"

"Of course."

Gemma looked at Anna, saying proudly, "Daddy loves Gemma best, he is the greatest, gentlest and most handsome daddy in this world, Gemma loves him too."

Anna laughed and pinched her cheek, looking across the blue sky and white clouds.

'Yes, Gemma has now owned what she wants, hasn't she?"

'Someone loves her and makes her happy.'

'Why do I have to tell her the truth?'

'And make her sad?'

If Gemma knew her father abandoned her for another woman when she was unborn, she would be hurt.

Anna hugged Gemma tightly.

Gemma didn't know why her mom was so sad, raising her head and watched Anna helplessly.

Ethan came back from the company, and then saw Anna sitting on the swing with Gemma in her arms.

His heart was pricked.

Because he saw the familiar sad look in Anna's eyes.

He knew she was thinking of that man again.

He came up to them quickly and broke the silence

with his gentle voice.

"My bunny, how was your day?"

Anna looked up and felt nervous at Ethan's faint frown.

"Great." She smiled hastily, "You come back early today?"

"Well, I couldn't wait to see you and our princess."

Gemma poked her head from Anna's arms, "Daddy!"

Ethan sat down and held her in his arms.

"Do you miss Daddy?"

Gemma hurriedly nodded, "I miss you so much."

'Me too."

Ethan hugged Gemma and kissed her soft face.

Anna watched them with a grin. Only now did she feel relieved.

Sunshine in the afternoon, relaxing daily life, enjoyable teatime, a gentle husband and a lovely child, these were what each woman wanted.

However Ethan and she were forever more than friends and less than lovers.

"Ethan, what's the perfect life in your mind?" Anna looked up at the sky, asking softly.

Ethan smiled and turned to look at her, "That's what I have right now."

Anna was surprised, joking with her hands under the jaw, "Get up, go to work, come home, go to bed, no time for play, no girlfriend, and this is the perfect life for you?"
