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

Chapter 677 The Only Family

By the time they got home, Gemma was asleep.

Ethan went to the kitchen to make a cup of honey water, and then handed it to Anna. His eyes were still s o gentle, just like sunshine.

"Don't you feel well?"

"Well..I’m fine." Thanks to Liam's hangover cure.

Anna took the honey water. She didn't drink it because it was a bit hot.

Ethan chuckled, "Drink some honey water, you will feel better."

Anna looked embarrassed and lowered her head, "You have drunk a lot of wine, and you must be very uncomfortable. You should drink it."

"I'll make myself another cup."

Ethan turned around and went to the kitchen.

Anna lay back on the sofa and closed her eyes tiredly.

She didn't know when her conversation with Ethan had become so exhausting.

But Ethan always took care of her so carefully, which made her feel very warm.

She shook her head, not knowing why her mood suddenly became confused.

"Anna, have some more food, or your stomach will upset you." Ethan brought some cakes and put them i n front of Anna.

He drank a lot today, but he kept taking care of Anna, which really touched her.

"Ethan..."Anna wanted to say something, but seeing Ethan's warm eyes, she couldn't say anything. She smiled and said, "Take some and rest early. You've been too tired lately."

"OK."

Ethan sat on the sofa opposite and drank the honey water.

"Anna, drink it while it's hot. It'll warm your stomach."

"Oh, OK."

Anna had to take a sip of honey water.

Ethan knew that she had met Liam, but he still pretended not to know and treated her as usual. He really showed her infinite tolerance and kindness.

It was really hard to find a man who was not angry and comfortable enough to give her enough time to deal with the mess.

Anna held the honey water in her hands, feeling warm and confused.

She wanted to slap herself.

'Why bother?’

'Ethan is better. Why am I bothering?’

She stood up and went upstairs to Gemma's room.

As soon as Anna opened the door of Gemma's room, the sweet and fragrant baby body smell hit her face. It smelled like milk and warmed Anna's heart again.

"My little princess, Mommy loves you." Anna kissed Gemma gently on the forehead.

Unexpectedly, Gemma woke up. She opened her big black eyes and looked sleepily at Anna.

"Mommy, are you home? Is Daddy home?"

"Daddy's back, too. Go back to sleep. It's late." Anna patted Gemma on the back.

Gemma pouted, "I've been waiting for Mommy and Daddy for a long time. Daddy said he would read me a bedtime story..."

Anna stroked her head gently, "Daddy is tired. How about I read you a bedtime story?"

"No, I want Daddy to read me a bedtime story." Gemma kicked her legs and shook her little head.

"Gemma, be good, Daddy's really tired."

Anna regretted waking Gemma, who could be quite noisy when she was awake. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Gemma began to cry, her big black eyes brimming with tears.

Anna had no choice but to call Ethan.

Ethan rushed to hug Gemma, who was crying. Like medicine, Gemma stopped crying as she lay on Ethan's shoulder.

"Daddy..."

"Gemma is a good girl. It's all Daddy's fault. Daddy came home late today. From now on Daddy will come back early and be with my little princess."

"I want Daddy to sing me a nursery rhyme."

"OK, Daddy will sing you a nursery rhyme."

Ethan held Gemma in his arms, shaking her and singing, "Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are..."

"Not this song, this song is too happy, how can I sleep? " Gemma purred.

Ethan quickly changed to another song, "There’s a calm surrender to the rush of day, when the heat of a rolling wind can be turned away..."

Anna's eyes widened as he sang those words.

She and Ethan heard the theme song of Lion King when they were little.At this moment, she felt like that she saw them sitting together watching the film back i n the olden days...

After a while, Gemma's big eyes narrowed to crescents because of sleepiness.

"Goodnight Daddy and Mommy," she mumbled, "little princess want to sleep."

Ethan kissed Gemma tenderly on her forehead.

Anna felt unspeakably sad when she saw How Gemma clung to Ethan.

Anna leaned down, ran her hands gently through Gemma's hair, and kissed her forehead as well.

Gemma put her arms around Anna's neck with dim eyes, kissed Anna on the cheek in a daze, and said in a very low voice, "Mommy, I really like Daady Ethan, s o I want him to be my Daddy forever,

OK?"

Anna froze.

"Gemma..."

'Why would a child suddenly ask such a question?’

'Could it be that she has heard my conversation with Ethan and understood all about it?’

Anna suddenly felt sorry for her daughter and nodded her head with red eyes.

"OK. Nighty night, my girl."

Gemma's pink and delicate face was full of expectation, which made Anna feel even sadder.

Gemma leaned on Ethan's shoulder and closed her eyes.

Anna was very sad to see Gemma on Ethan's shoulder, who was smiling as if she had eaten honey.

Gemma liked Ethan. Everyone liked Ethan.

Why could't she like Ethan?

Anna escaped from Gemma's room.

Ethan looked after her, sighed wistfully, and put Gemma carefully on the bed.

He looked at Gemma's pink face, tucked her in carefully, and turned off the light in the room.

"Gemma, I also want to be your daddy forever..."

Ethan kissed Gemma again, then stood up and walked out of Gemma's room.

As soon as Ethan came out of the room, he saw Anna had gone back to her bedroom, and he was a little frustrated.

She was always avoiding him.

He did not know how long he could maintain, and did not know when such a life would disappear from his world.

But he would do his best, because they were his family, the only family he had left in the world.
