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

Chapter 223 I Like It...

Nina had broken a crystal glass in the kitchen and her face turned pale in fear. She stared at the shards on the floor at a loss.

Nina was frightened as well. Liam was a fastidious person who sought perfection, and he even said that everything must be returned to where they belong. Now that the set of four crystal glasses became three, h e would surely hold them accountable.

"What do we do now Anna! This glass is obviously expensive!" Nina was close to crying.

Anna felt her chest tightened as well. Liam's belongings in his 7-star presidential suite were not items that any ordinary person could afford.

"Let's quickly sweep it up. I'll think of a solution when it's time to set it up. His eyes might not be so sharp as t o find one missing."

"Alright." Nina continuously nodded her head and quickly tidied up the fragments.

Just as they tidied up the fragments and disposed of the evidence, Liam returned with a document in hand.

He walked right in and sat on the sofa with his legs casually crossed and looked like he was focused on work.

Anna and Nina were frightened as they tidied up the place in a hurry. Time was running out which made them feel even more uneasy.

Nina was anxious when she saw that there were only 1 0 minutes left. She glanced at Liam who was sitting o n the sofa and said to Anna softly, "Anna, did you make Mr. Ackman angry? Why does it look like he's picking on you?"

Anna quickly shook her head and refused to admit it.

"Well... How about you plead to him for some leniency? This is too difficult, he'll nitpick even if we managed t o tidy up everything, and then there's the crystal glass ... We’ll have our marks deducted!"

Nina held onto Anna’s hand and begged, "I can't lose this time! I have to work in the Ackman Group. Please beg him for some leniency, think of it as doing me a favor.”

Anna knew that Nina had to take care of her mother and also work hard. She needed a stable job in the future to afford her mother's medical bills.

"Nina, don't worry, I’ll make sure we won't have our marks deducted!" Anna gave Nina a look of assurance.

"Everything here must be well-organized," Liam spoke without lifting his head and they heard his cold voice.

Anna wiped the sweat off her forehead and glanced at the cause of her suffering and called him a big pervert in her mind.

Liam glanced at his wristwatch and said, "Time's up!" He placed down the document in his hands and slowly got up. He casually placed his hands into his pants pocket and started his inspection.

First, he went to the study room then to the gym and h e was very satisfied with both.

Then he glanced around the spotless living room and was still very satisfied.

Finally, he slowly walked into the kitchen...

Nina was anxious and she gripped on to Anna tightly.

"What now? Mr. Ackman’s eyes are like precise measuring tools, he’ll surely notice that missing glass ornament." Nina was about to cry.

Anna looked at Nina and was quite worried as well.

Sure enough, Liam eventually realized that there was a glass ornament missing.

He slowly turned around and looked at Anna. "Where's the glass ornament?"

Nina was so nervous that she could not help but tremble.

Anna came forward and said loudly, "I broke it!"

The whole place fell silent in an instant, making the room inexplicably cold to the bone.

Anna held her head up and waited for Liam’s judgment.

"You broke it?" Liam’s stern voice was very terrifying.

Anna took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ackman. I'll pay it back..."

"Can you afford to?” Liam's furious voice was loud and ringing, which caused Anna’s whole body to tremble.

"This set of crystal glasses were handcrafted by a famous designer! There are only four in the world, and this designer passed away not long ago. Which means that the value of the entire set is priceless!"

Anna's chest quickly tightened. "Why did you place such an expensive glass ornament in a hotel suite!?”

"I like it!"

u H

He was truly an overbearing man!

"Mr. Ackman, it's my fault for breaking it! I’ve already apologized, isn't it more valuable to apologize for one's mistakes?" said Anna.

"Is this something a housekeeper should say to the guest? Anna, don't think that just because I'm your mentor you can be so bold!" Liam's dark expression was utterly cold.

Anna’s heart pounded as she said, "I wasn't...”

"I'm deducting 50 marks!" said Liam with resolution.

"What!?"

"Are you dissatisfied? Another 10 marks deducted!"

Anna's eyes widened. She had 60 marks taken away and was left with 40 marks. This meant that she already failed and could leave right away!

"No, Mr. Ackman! I broke the ornament, not Anna!" Nina rushed forward and quickly admitted her fault." It's all my fault! Deduct my marks if you want to..."

Anna angrily said, "Mr. Ackman purposely made the room messy and even set a time for us to put everything back in place. Mistakes can inevitably happen when it's chaotic. Why do you have to make things hard for us? What's the point!"

Liam crossed his arms arrogantly with a domineering aura. "I think there's a lot of points to this, do you have any complaints?"

Anna dared not voice out her dissatisfaction at that point, or else what little marks she had left were going to be reduced to nothing.

"Mr. Ackman, it's all my fault! It's all my fault! Deduct my marks if you want to. Anna did her job well while I didn't..." Nina bowed repeatedly to apologize.

However, Liam did not even glance at Nina but instead focused his attention on Anna.

Anna pulled Nina to her back and said softly, "Nina, it's fine. Have you forgotten that we can still have our marks increased?"

"Anna, it’s all my fault." Nina dejectedly lowered her head.

"It's alright, don't feel apologetic.”

Anna looked at Liam and said, "Even if the glass ornament wasn't broken, he would surely find some other problems to purposely make things difficult for me."

Liam elegantly walked up to Anna. "I admit, you truly have some talent! You satisfactorily restored everything here with your superhuman memory! But I still have to deduct 20 marks from you!"

"What? Another 20 marks?" Anna could not keep it together anymore. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

"You've made this place feel like home, a lot like my mansion's layout! But you've forgotten that this is a hotel. It's my temporary office, not my home!"

"You've made this place comfortable and cozy, what for?"

"..." Anna was at a loss for words.

Was he the nitpicking champion of the world?

"Don’t always use your perspective to judge others' feelings. Your understanding might not be what others want!” said Liam.

"Your arrangement is the complete opposite of what a temporary office should be! That's why I'm deducting your marks!"

Nina was extremely worried to see the way Liam was nitpicking. Anna would have no marks left if this

continued.

Nina quickly said, "Mr. Ackman, from now onward we will do our best to serve you. We’ll make you feel our attentive service, make you satisfied and increase our marks!"

Liam raised his eyebrow with interest. "Oh? Ms. Anna, do you think so too?"

"Yes...!" said Anna nervously.

"I'm looking forward to seeing how you can satisfy me with your attentive service," said Liam with a wicked grin.
