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

Chapter 683 Spying on Her

Anna had always wanted to keep away from Liam. She didn't want to have anything to do with him. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

However, she didn't expect Liam would clear his stance on the issue between Lincoln Group and Dawson Group in front of the media, which was just what Anna wanted.

Anna was sitting in her office, smiling and humming happily.

The employees passing by assumed that her personal design had been approved. There was an obvious look of envy in their eyes.

Who would know? Anna was glad that Liam did not take sides between the two enterprises.

If he had supported Dawson Group, it would be hard for Lincoln Group to gain its foothold in Johannes City.

If he had sided with Lincoln Group, the media would stir up a new topic about his relationship with Anna.

Liam's being neutral on the issue was the best result.

Anna's beautiful eyes wrinkled into crescents with a smile while she was humming softly to herself. An air of cheerfulness was around her.

She was like a summer flower in full bloom, and no one could resist her charm.

She stretched her limbs and moved around while looking out of the window in a delighted mood.

However, just at that moment, a headline popped up o n her phone with a buzz.

Anna's long eyebrows furrowed at the name "Liam", but she clicked on the news anyway.

It was a video feed of Liam's official interview on the local economic news channel.

In the video, Liam was sitting gracefully in the studio, his one hand in his pants pocket. He said in a gentle voice, "Anna is a new promising leader in the business world. I am very much looking forward to seeing her amazing performance on the future business battlefield."

"Mr. Ackman, you still have faith in your ex-wife, don't you?"

"I don't think you understand what I mean, host. I mean I'm really looking forward to Anna's desperate performance!"

In the video, Liam raised his eyebrows slightly and his deep, cool eyes looked straight at the camera. The smug look on his face seemed to challenge Anna.

Anna was so irritated that she almost smashed her phone to the floor.

'Was Liam complimenting on my potential?'

'He was talking sarcastically!'

'He was mocking me in public!' 'What did he mean by 'desperate'? Only nuts would go desperate in business!'

'Neither me nor Lincoln Group is desperate!'

Anna was so pissed off that her face was dark and she stared at her phone angrily, her slim fingers with delicate manicured nails strolled rapidly through the address book on her phone.

Soon she found Liam's name, and then she angrily clicked on his name.

She sent Liam a brief message of four words.

"Add insult to injury."

Within a minute, she received a message back from Liam. She had a furious look on her face.

"Anna, I used to think you weren't good at math, but it turns out you're not good at literature either."

Anna put down her phone aside. She put one hand over her chest to calm her heartbeat as if she was about to explode.

"Liam, you're irritating me!"

"You're really annoying!"

Anna shouted furiously. She kicked the floor in anger t o vent her fury.

After about two more minutes, Liam sent another message to Anna with a teasing smile on his face.

'"Add insult to injury' originated from a story about a stupid man who tried to smash a fly on his head but missed it and ended up slapping his own head. It means to further hurt a person's feelings who has already been hurt. Anna, when did I hurt you? You have to be prudent with your words, you can't slander people!"

Her phone buzzed with a new message. Anna looked a t the screen suspiciously, and she couldn't help but click it and read it.

At once, Anna exploded with rage and her fingers holding the phone were trembling.

When did she offend this terrible demon who despised her in public?

"Bastard! You're happy to see me angry, aren't you? I won't give you another chance to annoy me!"

Anna felt a little tightness in her chest and her brain was in abuzz.

Closing her eyes, she stretched relaxedly. Then she took a deep breath and grabbed her phone resolutely.

She turned to the Security Center page and after a short time of figuring, she put Liam on the blacklist.

Then Anna was happy and she put her phone aside. She clapped her hands as if she had won. Her furrowed brow finally relaxed.

"Hmph! You're messing with me! I'll never see you again!"

Anna clapped her hands on her knees and then she stood up joyfully. She felt she was full of energy. "Put the troubles aside! It's time to focus on work!"

Sitting back at her desk, Anna logged into the company's office system and reviewed the jewelry design drafts from the design department.

After an hour of concentrated, enthusiastic work, Anna took a break from the endless work. She stood u p, twisted her waist, and did some office exercises.

A knock came on the door and an employee walked i n. Looking at Anna, who was concentrating on her workout, he said hesitantly, "Ms. Hamilton, uh-uh... I..."

Anna stopped her workout, her body flexible and soft. She asked, feeling a sense of strangeness.

"What's the matter? Why are you stammering?"

The employee lowered his eyes in a hurry. He spoke in a weak tone, "I just got a call from a man who claimed t o be Liam's assistant. He said he wanted to ask me to d o him a favor and pass on a message to you."

The employee crossed his fingers in front of his belly nervously, his hands clenched tightly. He had a bewildered look on his face.

Anna was speechless at once. Beads of perspiration glistened on her skin.

"James called you? What did he say?"

The employee sensed that Anna seemed to know Liam's assistant, so he whispered stiffly, "He asked m e to tell you to clear your blacklist on your phone. Otherwise, they'll find the phone software developer and turn off the blacklist function on your phone."

"What?" Anna almost burst out a curse. She grabbed the employee's arms agitatedly and shouted.

"That's what he said... uh... Mr. Hamilton, you got the message, then I'll go back to work..." The employee vaguely felt that Anna's blacklist had something to do with Liam.

Then he thought of Liam's ghastly eyes and he felt a touch of inexplicable fear in his heart. He hurriedly ran away from the battlefield.

Anna, however, was still in shock.

Damn Liam! He could even find out that she had blacklisted him!

Did he do it again like before, secretly spying on her?

Thinking of this, Anna searched through her stuff immediately. She seemed to look for the surveillance that was spying on her!
