Chapter 704 Sparks Flew in All Directions
Liam stood up suddenly. His tall and straight figure just blocked Ethan's view of Anna.
Ethan looked at Liam and a trace of displeasure crossed Ethan’s face.
Liam sneered with disdain. Then he turned around quietly and looked at Ethan. Dark clouds seemed to gather in Liam's eyes.
"What a coincidence." Liam's tone was a little strange.
There was a hint of anger in Ethan's eyes, but he still said with a smile.
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
Ethan didn't expect to see Liam and Anna here at all.
The look in Liam's icy eyes continuously changed, which made people unable to feel his emotions.
Anna's heart jumped wildly.
She didn't know whether the scheming Liam intentionally made her encounter Ethan.
Not to be defeated, Ethan walked over and smiled at Anna.
"Anna, someone asked me to come here to talk about business, but I didn't expect to see you here."
"Ethan..."
Anna clenched her hands. There was sweat in the palms of her hands.
She felt tense and guilty.
"When did you come back? Why didn't you call me?"
Ethan ran into her and Liam. She and Liam were still wearing trench coats of the same color. It may make Ethan misunderstand that she and Liam were wearing couple outfits on a date.
"I just came back. And there is still something to be done. I wanted to go home to give you and Gemma a surprise."
Unexpectedly, it turned into a fright in the end.
"Oh, I get it! Mr. Ackman and... Mr. Ackman and I come to talk about the final jewelry design." Anna quickly explained.
Ethan smiled, "I guessed it."
Ethan was grateful to Liam for protecting Anna during his absence.
But as Ethan knew clearly that Liam wanted to be with Anna again, his hostility towards Liam was still very strong. So was Liam.
"Have you finished discussing the design?" Ethan asked.
Anna nodded quickly. "Yeah, I am about to leave."
Liam narrowed his eyes slightly. He radiated unhappiness.
Anna behaved like a little docile lamb in front of Ethan, which infuriated Liam.
So, Liam said in a very unfriendly tone.
"When you are away, I have a very happy talk with Anna about work."
Anna suddenly felt very nervous. 'Why does Liam add fuel to the fire?'
'He's so scheming!'
"It's a good thing to have a happy talk. I hope that Mr. Ackman could give more lucrative orders in the future to enhance our cooperation and interaction."
Ethan smiled, but his tone was neither cold nor warm.
Liam opened his thin lips lightly. His handsome face was decorated with natural nobility and pride. He said in a calm voice.
"Well, it depends on Anna's performance! As long as she can make me happy, I will make the Lincoln
Group rise to a higher level in Johannes City."
Ethan and Anna became speechless at the same time.
Was Liam indicating that the Lincoln Group could only rely on the Ackman Skyhigh Group to develop?
There was no trace of anger on Ethan's face. His psychological quality was definitely much better than Liam’s.
"I'm afraid that Mr. Ackman will become disappointed. How can I allow my woman to please another man?"
Liam sneered, and a trace of shrewdness flashed in his falcon-like eyes.
He took a step towards Ethan. He and Ethan looked at each other coldly, as if they were going to duel.
"You and Anna..." Liam dragged the long tone and raised the corner of his mouth. "The fate will not bring you and her together. How can she become your woman?"
Ethan could no longer keep smiling.
Liam felt proud and the smile on his face widened.
"I am very happy today. Anna, let’s meet again someday."
After glancing at Anna, he walked away.
'This damn man!'
Anna stared at Liam's back and cursed to herself.
Ethan's face turned pale, but he still smiled at Anna, not wanting to give her too much pressure.
"Well..." "Anna, is the cooperation smooth?" Ethan changed the subject.
Anna nodded. "Yeah."
This time, the cooperation did go well.
"That's good." Ethan said with a smile.
Anna quietly glanced at Ethan with a weird look.
She wanted to give an explanation, but she didn't know how to explain it.
"Well, Ethan, there is nothing between me and him." Anna looked down, blinking her eyes.
"I know, Anna." Ethan still smiled warmly.
Anna slowly breathed a sigh of relief, but she still felt stressed.
"That... Ethan... Since you still have to talk about business, I'll go back to the company."
Anna got up to leave, but was stopped by Ethan. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
"Come with me for a cup of coffee."
Anna abruptly stopped, as if her heart was hit by something.
Ethan suddenly hugged Anna.
He missed Anna so much that he embraced her, and said in a deep voice.
"Anna, I really miss you these days."
Anna was completely stunned.
Although in the past Ethan would hug her when he came back from a business trip, he just embraced her lightly.
It was the first time that Ethan hugged her so tightly. Anna's heart suddenly gave a thump.
She wanted to push Ethan away, but she worried that i t would hurt him.
"Well, Ethan, you must be very tired."
Feeling her alienation, he had to let go of her.
At this time, there were several coughing sounds from the door of the coffee shop, followed by Liam's cold and domineering voice.
"By the way, Anna, thank you for the cold medicine symbolic of love you gave me. With it, I believe that I will get better soon."
Ethan and Anna didn't know when Liam walked back.
Liam's eyes were cold and dark, like the Devil in the dark night.
There was an extremely cold smile on Liam’s face.
Anna was so frightened that she quickly pushed Ethan away.
At this time, she caught a hint of joking from Liam's falcon-like eyes.
Anna's cheeks flushed immediately. "Cold medicine is just cold medicine. What is the cold medicine
symbolic of love?"
She was angry, and anger was burning in her eyes.
Liam laughed.
He liked to see that this little woman was defeated by him.
Ethan looked at Liam unhappily.
'It turns out that Anna gave Liam the cold medicine that I bought for her?'
Liam also looked at Ethan. The moment their eyes met, sparks flew everywhere.
Anna seemed to smell the smell of gunpowder smoke.
'What are they going to do?’
The two fought more than once and they were hostile towards each other. It was really difficult for Anna to mediate between them.
Anna got angry. "Well, I'm very tired! Do as you like!"
Anna grabbed her handbag and walked out.
Liam shrugged his shoulders indifferently, a dangerous light flashing in his eyes, and then he gave a triumphant smile.
"Since Anna leaves, I'll also leave."
