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

Chapter 314 Sleeping Disorder

After she accompanied Liam to the cruise ship party, invitations inviting Anna to all sorts of balls and parties came in daily.

Anna didn’t know what to do with those invitations.

If she didn't attend, she would seem bossy and pretentious.

But if she did attend, it would be extremely awkward for her because she knew they belonged to different classes in society, and she wouldn't know any of the guests present.

Daniel looked at the invitations, half happy and half sad.

The guests were all big players in the industry. Even h e himself didn't have the right to attend.

Anna had the chance to move in their circles, it was indeed a precious opportunity for the Lincoln Group.

Many business opportunities were built from family and social connections.

But if Anna's social circle suddenly broadened and jumped to a completely different level, then in the future what trump card did he have to secure his own position in the company?

Daniel was worried.

He was stuck between a rock and a hard place; he didn't know which path was the right one to take.

"Anna has to report for work at the Ackman Group tomorrow, doesn't she? She doesn’t have the time to attend these parties." Nicole added lightly.

"She needs to work, she’s not a princess whose family will take care of her expenses and she just has to have fun and spend time with her friends."

Daniel's eyes brightened, "Mr. Ackman was the one who dragged Anna along with him to the ball and got u s into all this trouble, let him be the one to bear the burden."

Daniel smiled, "Anna doesn’t have time to attend the ball because she’s busy working for the Ackman

Group, it’s the Ackman Group's fault. It has nothing to do with us."

"Everyone knows all their staff has to work overtime almost every day, even eating and sleeping are considered luxuries."

Daniel felt as if a boulder had been lifted off his shoulders, even the smile lines on his face deepened.

"We wouldn't be offending them and we also wouldn't seem bossy. It’s perfect, just perfect!"

Daniel threw an approving glance at Nicole, "I'm so glad to have you."

Nicolle smiled and blushed, placing a jacket on his shoulders, "The weather is turning cold now, wear thicker clothes at night, and remember to cut down on your drinks.

You're not getting any younger, get your subordinates t o entertain and socialize with the clients. What will happen to me if you collapse from exhaustion?"

Daniel pulled Nicole into his arms.

He needed a woman like her in his life, one who looked after his needs and comforted him.

Men were the pillars that held up their families, protecting them from the strong winds and stormy rains.

Women were supposed to stay at home, educate their children and take care of their husbands, not ordering their husbands about like a general would to his subordinates.

Daniel was reminded of Anna's mother, she was perfect, except for the fact that she was too headstrong, and he couldn’t stand her dominating presence.

Fortunately, the years where he had to swallow his anger and bow down to her had become a matter of the past.

“These past few months, you have been troubled because of Anna and Chloe. In the future, once they've both married into good families and I’ve grown old, I'll emigrate overseas with you and enjoy the rest of our lives together.

This was the first time Daniel had said words like these to her, Nicole was so touched she felt tears pricking at the corners of her eyes.

She hugged him tightly, voice choking, "Daniel, with your promise, all the pain I’ve suffered throughout my life has been worth it."

She felt guilty.

Daniel was so nice to her, and yet she was busy thinking of methods to pay off Bruce Walker.

She swore to herself, she had to get rid of Bruce as soon as possible and live the rest of her life honestly with Daniel.

"Daniel, in my whole life, you were the only one who ever loved me."

Anna’s invitations were all blocked by her father, she could finally get a good night's sleep.

Tomorrow was the day she would report for work at the Ackman Group.

She felt nervous and uneasy.

To prepare herself for war, she switched off her phone before her usual bedtime, turned off all the lights, and prepared herself for deep REM sleep.

She thought as long as she switched off her phone, no one would be able to disturb her.

She didn't expect her smartwatch to ring non-stop.

She raised her wrist and took a glance, a long row of green letters flew across the screen.

"Why didn't you reply?"

Charles.

Mr. Charles who disappeared for a long period of time suddenly reappeared.

Her plan to sleep had gone out the window.

She always had a question written in the depths of her heart.

Who was this, Charles? Why did he keep pestering her so persistently?

Previously, she had vague suspicions that he was the asshole, Ryan Sanchez.

Because since the karaoke incident where he was beaten to a pulp by Liam, Charles disappeared too.

But since Liam forced Ryan to kneel and beg for her forgiveness in the Earldom Club, she thought he would never contact her again...

So this Charles...

Liam's handsome face drifted across her mind.

She hurriedly switched on her phone and prepared to reply to Charles's message but unexpectedly, her phone rang with a call from Liam.

"Why did you switch off your phone?" Liam asked coldly as if the devil himself had paid her a visit from hell.

"Uhm... I was going to sleep, I'm exhausted from the past two days." Anna scratched her head anxiously.

"Exhausted?" Liam's tone raised an octave.

"Uhm... you know why. I’m really exhausted.” Anna wrapped her pajamas around her tightly, instinctively protecting herself from him.

"I'm exhausted too," he said.

"Then hurry up and go to sleep! Tonight is a cloudy night, there’s no moonlight, even if there was, you just have to close the drapes and your room will be pitch dark, perfect for sleep."

Liam was quiet for a few seconds, then said, "I can't sleep."

"You have too many problems! Your brain can't rest because you're busy thinking about them all the time. Your brain cells are too active, that's why you can’t sleep."

"Help me." He said again.

"How?” Anna thought for a moment, "Right! I read online about a breathing exercise that will supposedly help you sleep."

"How?” Liam asked curiously.

"Blow out a deep breath, then close your mouth tightly, breath in with your nose, and silently count to four, one, two, three, four, stop breathing in."

"Stop breathing in, and hold your breath, count silently to seven, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven."

"Then breathe out again with your mouth, and count silently, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight."

"Breath in and out four times, this is a set. You need to do three sets, then you'll fall asleep."

Anna finished, but couldn’t hear his voice anymore. She waited for a minute, but still, he didn’t speak.

She thought he had fallen asleep and was just going to end the call when his voice drifted in from the other side of the phone.

"I'm still awake."

"Did you try it?"

"I did!"

"But why does it sound like you’re driving?" Anna frowned.

"Yeah, I am driving," he replied calmly.

With his words, she couldn't remain calm anymore, she jumped up from her bed, "You're driving and you ask me to help you fall asleep?"

"But I didn't."

Anna felt like her sincerity was once again taken by him and fed to the dogs.

"Liam Ackman, do you know why you can't sleep?"

"Why?"

"Because you're too evil!" K H

Anna ended the call furiously.

Immediately, he called her again.

Anna hung up again.

He called her again and once again she ended the call.

This process was repeated a few times.

Anna still held a flicker of hope for him, this time, she answered. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"What more do you want?" She said angrily.

"I just wanted to tell you, I'm on my way over to your house." "What?!"
