Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 773

Anna couldn't bear to see Ethan who had done so much for her ended up being hurt like this.

"Ethan, don’t worry, I won’t..."

"Okay, Anna, I have an important meeting to attend. I’ll leave first." Ethan interrupted her and turned to leave.

Anna leaned helplessly back against her office chair.

Both Ethan and she knew that Bryan had done so much to Lincoln Group, but in the end, it turned out no better than the effects brought by such a popular project.

Anna thought for a long time, trying hard to suppress the frustration and depression in her heart.

She could see very clearly the sadness and reluctance hidden beneath Ethan warm smile when he left.

She was loath to hurt Ethan.

But in the end, she still gave him the devastating hit.

Anna raised her head and took a deep breath," Guarding the Lincoln Group matters most now.

"It was a fruit of Grandpa's years of hard work so I certainly cannot see it fail because of me. I hope Grandpa would rest in peace in the heaven."

Anna called Liam, "I approve your proposal."

Liam had already known that Anna was going to agree with it.

"I have prepared the contract, when is it convenient for you to sign it?"

"Anytime. It's up to you."

"Today, then."

"So soon!"

"You still need to think about it?" Liam asked.

"Since you've made up your mind, then go and sign the contract."

Anna agreed and chose a place to sign the contract with Liam.

Ethan returned home alone and leaned against the liquor cabinet, drinking wine.

He felt that he had really done a lot but still lost in the end.

He wanted to give Anna more, but he really couldn't d o it.

For the first time, he felt that though he had already been excellent enough he still seemed nobody in front of Liam whom everyone looked up to,...

At the thought of the scene when Anna and Liam standing together, he felt that he was overshadowed and did not deserve to stand with Anna.

Ethan then raised his glass and drank the whole glass of wine.

He closed his eyes sadly and the corners of his lips produced a mocking smile.

It was a mockery of himself.

"Daddy.."

Little Gemma quietly came over.

She gently grabbed Ethan's sleeve and gently shook it.

"Daddy, what's wrong with you? Why are you drinking?" Little Gemma stared at Ethan with her big eyes, looking worried.

Ethan moved his hand and stroked little Gemma's cheek.

"Don't worry. Daddy is fine. Daddy just wants to be alone."

"But Daddy drank lots and lots of wine just now. Isn’t i t that Daddy will only drink to celebrate something when you are very happy? Daddy wants to be alone, so are you actually in a good mood now?"

"Yes, Daddy is very happy now." Ethan said in a gentle voice with his dotting gaze fixed on little Gemma.

"But why do I feel that Daddy is in a bad mood right now?" She blinked her eyes, which looked particularly naive and cute.

Ethan was lost for words at this moment, he held her little face with his warm palms.

But seeing little Gemma’s face resemble Liam's a lot, his heart hurt like being pricked by pins again and again.
