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

Chapter 141 Are You Satisfied With Your Gift?

Chloe rushed toward Bryan and hugged him.

"Bryan, don't leave me! I love you... I wouldn't be able t o live without you, Bryan!"

Chloe's tears soaked the silk shirt Bryan wore, she was choked up and her soft voice made it hard not to feel affectionate toward her.

Bryan felt a little soft-hearted but it was only for a fleeting moment.

"Chloe, I've said this before, you have to pull yourself together. Do you know the consequences now that Grandma knows about this?"

Chloe shook her head incessantly. "Bryan, all I know is that I love you and I can't leave you! You’re everything t o me, there's really no way for me to live without you..."

"Bryan, I'll follow everything you say, but you mustn't leave me!"

"No matter how long you wait for me, I’ll wait. As long as you won't leave me..." said Chloe as she cried.

Bryan slowly turned around as he wanted to wipe the tears off Chloe's face. However, she immediately lunged forward and kissed him.

Bryan was taken aback, he then hugged Chloe's petite body as he kissed her even deeper...

Daniel brought Anna to the restroom where she glanced in the direction of the nearby men’s room. As a precaution, she could not do this by herself.

"Dad, help me look for Bryan. He's been in the restroom for so long, why isn’t he out yet?" 1

"Alright, you be careful, Anna."

"Don’t worry, Chloe is inside, she'll look after me."

A crowd suddenly swarmed toward the men’s room just as Daniel was about to enter to look for Bryan, they seemed to be holding camera equipment in their hands.

Anna was puzzled, where did those reporters come from?

Daniel was confused as well but the crowd of reporters had already rushed into the restroom. They were like machines built specifically to sniff out gossip, and they precisely found the source of the gossip.

Bryan and Anna hid in one of the stalls in the restroom. The tightly shut door was suddenly forced open by the reporters, immediately followed by cameras pointed directly at the couple snapping continuously. 2

Bryan quickly let go of Chloe who was in his arms and hastily tidied his clothes.

Chloe was also frightened and let out a scream as she quickly covered her cheeks.

The reporters swarmed forward and blocked the doorway completely. There was no way for Bryan and Anna to escape. 2

"My God! It's Bryan Dawson! He's having a tryst with a lady in the men's room!"

"Quickly, take pictures..."

"Isn’t the lady beside Bryan Chloe Hamilton?"

"I can't believe they're having a tryst in the men's room!"

"Chloe secretly meeting her brother-in-law in the men’s room to make out, this is breaking news!"

"Mr. Bryan, care to elaborate on your relationship?"

"Ms. Chloe, does your sister know about your relationship with your brother-in-law?"

The reporters’ intrusion attracted a crowd of onlookers. They craned their heads to have a look as they were curious about what had happened inside.

"Looks like some people were caught having an affair."

"They seem to be Bryan Dawson and the second daughter of the Hamilton family."

"What's a woman doing in the men's room?"

"What else could it be! They obviously hooked up!” "My God! Brother and sister-in-law hooking up in the restroom? That's so shameless!" "Wealthy families are such a mess! I can't believe such a thing happened! Aren't Bryan and Anna a loving couple? Turns out they're not."

"Aren't they bold for coming here looking for excitement? The two of them would probably be finished if the Dawsons and the Hamiltons knew about this!"

"I heard that Anna's illness is still quite serious, so if the Hamiltons can't wed the older sister then they'll just wed the younger one. After all, the point is to unite their families through marriage."

Daniel's expression darkened with anger as he hastily tugged on Anna and left. It would be a complete embarrassment if he were to be recognized.

Anna feigned ignorance and asked, "Dad, what's going on? Why are we in such a hurry? Did something happen? It’s a mess around here."

"Anna, stop talking, I'm taking you home."

"We’re going home? Aren't we waiting for Chloe and Bryan?"

Daniel huffed and tugged on Anna to speed up their steps as if fleeing from embarrassment.

Anna smirked as she turned around and glanced toward the direction of the chaotic restroom.

Chloe and Bryan, both of them were finished!

However, Anna could not wrap her head around something; where did those reporters come from? How could they have found Bryan and Chloe so precisely? It was as if they rushed toward them with certainty.

Daniel's expression was so dark that it was terrifying a s he anxiously got Anna into the car. He started up the car and drove straight home.

Chloe was frightened by the sudden intrusion and dared not show her face to the reporters.

Soon after, she had an idea. Since it had already come to this, she was willing to risk everything and be done with it all.

She immediately hugged Bryan and buried her face into his chest as if she was a young lady seeking protection.

Bryan was enraged and quickly pried Chloe's arms off him and angrily exclaimed at the reporters. "Who called you guys here? Stop speaking nonsense or I'll sue you all for defamation!"

One of the reporters scoffed and said, "How bold of you, Mr. Bryan. There are so many pairs of eyes looking at the both of you, how do you plan on suing?"

"You saw nothing! She simply fell accidentally and I just helped her up," bellowed Bryan, yet he was still unable to push away the clingy Chloe.

Although Bryan did not know how these reporters found them here, he was certain that someone had plotted against him.

"F*ck!" swore Bryan under his breath.

He would surely make that person suffer once he uncovered who that person was.

"Bryan, I'm scared..." whimpered Chloe.

Bryan wanted to toss Chloe out, but this hot potato was really clingy!

"Chloe, pull yourself together!" growled Bryan angrily.

The crowd quietly ridiculed Bryan for his shamelessness as he used a woman and refuted it afterward.

The reporters also had a look of disdain on their faces. They wanted to question them some more but were forcefully pushed aside by Bryan.

"Get out of the way!" Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Bryan dared not leave Chloe behind as he was worried about what she would say to the reporters. He dragged her along and hurriedly left the restaurant.

It was then Bryan thought of Anna who was still in the restaurant. He wanted to go back for her but was afraid of being surrounded by the reporters.

"Bryan, were you guys caught having an affair? Tsk tsk, seems exciting!"

Bryan suddenly raised his head when he heard a contemptuous voice. He saw Amelia standing at the restaurant’s entrance, slowly creeping closer toward him.

Bryan glared at Amelia and gritted his teeth and said," It was you wasn't it? Amelia, you're really cruel!"

Amelia snorted and glanced at Bryan and Chloe who looked distressed. "What did I do?"

"Stop acting! You called the reporters, didn’t you?"

Amelia glared at Bryan and said, "Bryan, are you afraid of people knowing what you've done? Don't twist the facts and pin it on someone else randomly!"

Bryan pointed at Amelia and said, "I'll never forgive you for this."

Bryan left as soon as he finished his words and left the resentful Amelia behind. He took Chloe and hurriedly got in the car and escaped.

The reporters were disappointed that they could not catch up to Bryan, but the pictures they had in their cameras were enough to stir up the entirety of Johannes City.

No one noticed that in one of the booths on the second floor of the restaurant was a tall and handsome man. H e stood by the window like the master who controlled everything. He silently watched as the situation unfolded toward the direction he had predicted while his lips could not help but twitch giddily.

"The show has begun!"

Anna lowered her head to look at her phone and saw that Charles had sent her a message.
