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

Chapter 217 Let Him Loosen up for You

Anna sat crossed-legged on her bed in her accommodation. She took her phone and started chatting with Charles.

In Anna’s words, "If I could convince him up to have a meetup, then wouldn't I know who he is? Hehe..."

"Anna, are you sure this will work?" Nina was a little worried.

"It'll definitely work!"

[Anna: What are you doing?] asked Anna.

Charles finally replied after two minutes.

[Charles: Nothing.]

Anna was stunned as she looked at Nina. "What am I supposed to reply?"

"How would I know! I don't chat with people online!" Nina waved her hand.

Anna scratched her head and said, "Neither do I, I don't know how to chat! Damn it, just say whatever.”

[Anna: What is nothing?] asked Anna.

[Charles: Nothing means I'm not doing anything.] replied Charles.

[Anna: What do you mean you're not doing anything?]

[Charles: I’m doing... You!]

Anna's hand trembled as she held her phone. "Why is this man so shameless!”

Anna composed a message intending to scold him but Nina quickly stopped her as she was about to send it and deleted everything she wrote.

"Anna, you can't chat like that."

"Then what should I say? You do it then!" Anna threw the phone over to Nina.

Nina tilted her head and thought for a moment. [Anna: What are you doing? Why do you always send out so many lucky draws? It’s not easy to earn money, better t o be a little thrifty.]

Nina said to Anna, "This way you'll show that you care, and he'll surely chat with you more."

Anna nodded her head and raised her thumb. "That makes sense."

Charles replied soon enough and his reply almost drove Anna and Nina mad.

[Charles: I'm rich]

"This man needs to be taught a lesson! I really want to beat him up!" Anna was annoyed.

"He needs to be beaten up! I'm not good at this, you do i t yourself!" Nina threw the phone back to Anna.

Anna took a deep breath. "Keep calm, keep calm. I

have to bite the bullet to get what I want!"

Anna quickly controlled her emotions and continued texting Charles.

[Anna: I've known you for so long but I still don’t know your name!]

[Charles: Charles.]

Anna rubbed her forehead. [Anna: I'm asking for your real name!]

[Charles: Charles.]

Anna was angry. "Is he a tape recorder? He keeps repeating the same thing."

Nina held her textbook and thought for a moment." Maybe he's really called Charles! Anna, I don’t think you can beat him, he’s completely sealed tight. Just tell him straight away that you want to meet up. That way it'll save your time and energy, and we can spend our time studying and preparing for tomorrow's assessment."

"There's no point in studying!" Anna angrily shut her textbook and continued, "Tomorrow's assessment is unrelated to our specialization, there’s no use revising books!"

Anna got even angrier at the thought of that, she also had no mood to chat up Charles anymore.

[Anna: Let's meet up! I want to know who you are!] Anna hurriedly sent the text.

Charles replied really quickly.

[Charles: You want to meet an online friend?]

Anna felt disheartened. [Anna: Are we online friends? You definitely know me but I don't know who you are! I think I know you too, so don’t act so mysterious, and let’s meet to talk in person!]

[Charles: What do you want to talk about? Is it good or bad?]

[Anna: A little bit of both!]

[Charles: I’m not meeting you.]

Anna was close to throwing her phone. [Anna: I’m asking you, what's the meaning of this? What are you trying to do? You're seriously disturbing my life!]

[Charles: Call me your husband! If not husband then honey, if not honey then call me master...]

[Anna: Go to hell!]

Anna angrily threw her phone.

"Anna, you won’t get him to go out with you like that!"

"Then what should I do?"

Nina shook her head and said, "I don't know either, I have no experience."

Anna scratched her head in annoyance. "It would seem that we require Jamie's help for this matter!"

Nina's eyes immediately lit up. "Yes, yes, yes! With

Jamie's help, we'll catch this Charles!" "Come on! Let’s go find Jamie!" Anna stood up with a look of determination.

Charles, prepare to get captured!

"I heard that the students in your school are placing big bets! Is it true? Just hearing about it gets me so excited, I want to join in too!" Jamie rubbed his hands i n excitement the moment he saw Anna.

Anna rolled her eyes at him. "News travels fast, even you know about it!"

"It’s the digital age! Look at who this is!" Jamie took out his phone and opened a video.

It turned out to be the video of Anna and Jennifer in the auditorium placing their bets.

"Someone posted it online, the title said that the eldest daughter of the Hamiltons who failed in love is now focused on the market, she made a bet with a student and is preparing to win her first pot of gold! There were comments below that congratulated you for your comeback!” said Jamie excitedly.

Anna rolled her eyes. "These people have nothing better to do!”

"It's not a joke! 50 million is at stake, you better not lose!"

"But still, congratulations on making waves again! You're on the top search list, I think you have the talent to work in the film industry since you have so

much gossip around you, hahaha..."

Anna rolled her eyes again and threw her phone to Jamie. "Help me chat up Charles, I want to meet him! I want to dig up more information on him!”

Jamie's eyes lit up in an instant. "Chat up a guy? Sure!"

What would Liam feel if he knew that Anna was racking her brain to find someone to chat him up.

Nina felt a bit uneasy and said, "Anna, don't you think that the matter with Jennifer is a little strange?

Maybe you shouldn't compete with her anymore! I don't think it’s that simple."

Anna's eyes were full of determination. "Why shouldn’t I compete with her? It's time for me to redeem myself! Don’t worry Nina, I don’t think that she's much better off than we will be in terms of unfamiliar specializations! Besides, even if I didn't place the bet with her, I still want to win this competition! I must successfully join the Ackman Group!"

Nina sighed softly and said, "I know, Anna. You have nothing now and you need to prove your worth and redeem yourself, but..."

"I can’t keep relying on the support of the people around me! What that person said was right; if I want t o stop getting bullied then I must stand up for myself.”

"Which person?" "No... Nothing!" Anna quickly avoided Nina's gaze.

Anna chuckled awkwardly and said, "I feel safer knowing that I can rely on my own abilities! As you can see, men are unreliable! I want to be like Mom, and give her some comfort in the afterlife."

Nina nodded her head and could hardly pay attention anymore.

Anna wrapped her arm around Nina's shoulder and said, "Together we'll join the Ackman Group! Haven’t you always wanted to work in a large company? The Ackman Group is the largest and the strongest company!"

"Anna, you've been talking with Mr. Ackman and he always cares about you, he should give you some insider information, right? Have him loosen up a bit for you when you need to."

Anna's expression darkened. "Him? Forget it. I’m already grateful enough if he doesn’t set me up, it’s better that I rely on myself.”

"Why would he? Mr. Ackman cares about you so much. When you were in the hospital, he was so worried..."

"Enough, don't mention him anymore. He’s so strict with work and has high expectations for his employees, he wouldn't go against his principles for his connections."

Anna suddenly shouted, “Jamie, how could you say such a thing! You've ruined my reputation!"
