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

Chapter 245 Can You Be Serious For Once?

Ackman Group building.

This time, Anna successfully entered the Ackman Group, but she did not expect that Liam was not in the office.

The lady at the front desk was very enthusiastic and respectful this time, "Sorry, Ms. Hamilton, the president has not arrived at work yet at this time."

Anna quickly glanced at her watch, "It's ten o'clock in the morning, he hasn't come to work yet? What time does he come to work?"

"Generally, the CEO won’t come if everything is running smoothly within the company."

"Then the company is running smoothly today?" Anna asked anxiously.

The lady checked Liam's list of appointments for the day, "Sorry, Ms. Hamilton, the president has no arrangements with the company today, so he probably won't come to the office anymore."

"What?"

Anna clenched her fists.

Their advertising plan had not been discussed yet, and he did not arrange an appointment!

How could he belittle her talents so obviously!

She could not tolerate his shameless behavior any further!

"Usually at this time, where would he be?"Anna asked.

The front desk lady looked embarrassed, "This... how would I know where the CEO is now."

Anna stormed out of the Ackman Group building, but i n a huge city like JohAnnas city, where should she go t o find Liam?

The damn address book, it was completely blank, she had no way of contacting Liam!

If she knew this day would come, she would’ve memorized Liam's phone number.

Anna glanced at her watch, "Will he be at home at this time?"

At that thought, she hurriedly flagged down a taxi, planning to try her luck at Fitzrovia Hills.

She anxiously rang the doorbell of Liam's house. After a long time, when she thought there was no one at home, the door suddenly opened.

Anna was overjoyed, grabbed the copy in his hand, and rushed into Liam's house.

Liam was wearing light gray loungewear, pouring milk in the kitchen, looking soft and gentle, like a kind, homely man.

But Anna didn't have time to appreciate his good looks. She raced against time and spoke immediately.

"The new proposal you want is ready, can you read it now?"

Liam came out of the kitchen holding a glass of milk and looked at Anna who was panting breathlessly. The crystal beads of sweat covered the tip of her round nose, making her look particularly pitiful.

Liam stared at her without blinking and took a sip of milk.

"Can you choose the proposal now?"

Anna walked over and at Liam's warning gaze, she quickly looked down at her shoes, turned around, and went to the hallway to remove her shoes, put on slippers, and walked in again.

"I have prepared all the materials and made two new samples, both of which are in this USB flash drive. Just connect it to the computer, and you can see the new ones..."

"What's the rush?" Liam said breezily.

"Can I not be in a hurry? Today is the last day of the assessment!" She was really anxious now.

Liam slowly put down his glass of milk, stood up, and stopped in front of Anna. His scorching eyes made Anna retreat subconsciously.

He continued to step forward, lowered his head, and looked down at the panic in her eyes, and the corners o f his lips slowly curled up.

Anna was horrified and abruptly backed away. Her whole body slammed into the wall behind her. There was nowhere to go.

Liam supported the wall with one hand and continued to lean down, his voice dull, his breathing burning.

"You took the initiative to deliver yourself to my door, are we just going to talk about business?"

"What else should we do..." She stammered, and her heart throbbed when she saw the merriment floating i n his eyes.

Liam raised his slender fingers, and gently stroked Anna's white cheeks, finally caressing the corners of her cherry-red lips.

"What do you think..." He blew a breath against her cheeks, "We should do?"

Anna trembled suddenly, her heart beating more violently, "I, I... I'm just here to discuss the proposal!"

"Who would believe you?"

Anna gritted her teeth hard, not letting himself fall under his dominating presence, "Liam, you can’t play with me like this! Although you are my client now, you must work according to the regular procedures! I have fulfilled all your requirements. We have reworked the proposal. We are just focusing on the business!"

Liam frowned slightly, "The little hedgehog finally raised her hackles again?"

"I am not just a hedgehog; I am a tiger!" she said harshly.

"Oh? A tigress?"

"You!"

"Hehe..." Liam gave a low laugh and continued to approach her. His strong masculine scent poured into her nose, making her blush and heart race.

She hurriedly put her hands against his chest to prevent him from getting closer, "Are you going to read the proposal or not?”

"I want to see you!"

"Can you be more serious? I have never seen such a mischievous and playful president like you!"

“A man is only playful when he is in front of a woman he likes."

U H

Anna's heart slammed, and her eyes flickered as she watched him, "You... you said you... like me?"

Liam was slightly startled, a trace of confusion flashed across his dark eyes, and his voice became clearer, "At least I am very interested now."

Interested...

The word sounded so hurtful! This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Anna took a deep breath, waved away all the conflicting emotions in her heart, and said straightly,"

Then Mr. Ackman, can you take a look at the samples now? I am rushing for time, and I don't have time to cultivate your interest right now."

Liam lowered his hand, the enthusiasm in his eyes dying down inexplicably, and turned to his computer desk.

Anna took a long sigh, patted her cheek, straightened her back, steadied her racing heart, walked to Liam's computer desk, and handed him the USB flash drive.

Liam stuck it into the computer and glanced at Anna's samples, "Compared with the previous samples, this is better."

Anna resisted the urge to laugh and spoke professionally, "Our company has rigorously screened through all the potential plans and finally decided on the best proposal! Now Mr. Ackman, can you settle the issue and continue to use the original proposal?"

Liam leaned back on his chair gracefully and looked a t Anna inquisitively.

He didn't believe that a fledgling bird like her would understand these kinds of psychological tactics. Anna definitely had an expert beside her advising her.

"If I'm not mistaken, your two sets of proposals are the ones you modified from the samples you used when you were in school. That's why you could work so fast, and rewrite two sets of proposals for me to go through." "And your new set of plans lack a lot of patience and meticulousness compared to the original one. You intend to use these two sets of plans to complement the first set of proposals, am I right?"

Anna was not surprised that Liam was right on the point.

She also knew this little trick wouldn’t be able to fool Liam, who was renowned for being a cunning fox in the business world for many years.

"At least I proved that my first proposal is the best proposal at the moment! But you can't deny that the two plans I came up with now are also very creative and good proposals if you don’t compare them!" Anna retorted.

Liam chuckled and nodded, "It is indeed undeniable. If these two samples are read independently, they are not bad at all."

Anna's eyes lit up with a ray of light, "So Mr. Ackman can you promise that the first set of proposals will be approved now?"

Liam raised his eyebrows and said in a playful tone,' Anna, beg me!"
