Chapter 575 The Oncoming Car
Anna dressed up and went out with Ethan that night.
They didn't bring little Gemma with them, as after all, they needed a proper date only between the two of them.
Anna agreed as they are getting married soon, so it is necessary for her to get closer and more intimate to Ethan.
They strolled in the park.
Ethan pointed to the music fountain and looked at Anna next to him with a smile.
"Do you want to play water with me?" he asked.
Anna looked at the people not far from them, playing and splashing water at each other, and her eyes were lit up with sparkly light.
"This is our first date, and we are going to have a water fight?" she asked.
"A date?" Ethan mumbled and burst into laughter. The smile on his gentle face was warm and his gaze at Anna dedicated and soulful.
'Anna finally wants to date me?' He thought happily.
Anna stopped looking at the park, puckered up her lips but cracked up with a bright smile.
"I will count backwards from three to one and we will run over there! The first who gets there can take actions first and no back fight for the first three times!” Anna said.
Seeing that Ethan smiled and nodded, Anna bent down and prepared to run, "I will count now!"
"One!" Anna yelled and dashed out.
Ethan threw up his hands and shrugged shoulders. He strode behind Anna, shouting, "Anna! You are being naughty, wait and see how will I fix you later!”
The happy couple played water and laughed by the fountain, not noticing that Liam was standing not far from them and staring at them icily.
People who went pass him got chills and looked at him weirdly.
The man had got a mighty aura, sending out a distant and cold vibe.
The happier Anna and Ethan were, the colder Liam's look became. He even wanted to come up and split the two.
Seeing that Ethan carefully put his coat on Anna, Liam was pissed and went back into the car.
He was so angry and thought about just leaving, but h e didn't. He drove the car straight into the crowd finally.
People in the park were frightened and yelling, scattered and dodged the speedy car.
Anna was frozen on sight seeing a Maybach running towards her, not being able to take any action.
The shield of the car had been specially treated and could not be seen through, so Anna couldn't tell who was driving the car.
However, Liam saw Anna and her pale face clearly.
"Anna!" Ethan cried out, as he came up and shoved her aside.
"Ethan!” Anna cried in panic, falling on the ground.
However, the Maybach didn't hit Ethan as it turned away right in front of him.
It stopped abruptly with a brake screech.
Liam looked at them from the rearview mirror, seeing that Anna ran to Ethan and hugged him tightly.
"Why are you so silly? Why did you run to me?" Anna cried.
"Are you hurt? Tell me, are you hurt?" Ethan had no time caring for himself.
"I'm not hurt, but are you?" Anna said and burst into tears.
Liam’s face turned blue seeing that they loved each other so deeply.
"What a drama of loving couple sharing weal and woe," he said and drove away angrily.
Anna and Ethan finally caught on and were to refute the rampant driver but only found the car was far, far away.
'Was it Liam the man who almost hit me?' Anna thought, feeling her heart sank.
Ethan saw her pale expression and thought that she was frightened, so he rushed to take her home.
Upon returning home, Anna took a cold shower and went to see Ethan in the study.
"The Dawson Group keeps on suppressing our Lincoln Group and stole business from us. What a bully! I've thought this through and I prepare to return to Lincoln Group and fight by your side. I will not let anyone hurt the company again," she said.
Ethan raised his head from the pile of paperwork and said softly, "Anna, you only need to stay at home and look after Gemma."
Of course he knew her thoughts. She is afraid that if Liam couldn't take any advantage from Gemma he will pick on Licoln Group.
"I will go back to the company,” Anna said with a composed and determined look on her face.
"You look just like an iron lady now, impressive and admirable," Ethan couldn't held his laughter back.
"Alright, I will fully support your decision," he added.
Seeing that Anna was so determined, Ethan laughed proudly as he had so much faith in her.
‘But I really need a while to prepare,' Anna thought carefully.
She thought that the Hamiltons had once been a really rich family, but now it was down and out. Her father murdered her mother and tried to empty the company so that the powerful shareholders would severely frown upon the shameful act of her father.
Though she was the only heir to Lincoln Group, Anna was so afraid that they would reject if she arbitrarily returned to the company.
Anna was so afraid that they will reject if she arbitrarily returns to the company.
"Anna, I know that you've always been hoping not to let down your grandpa’s high expectations on you, but now you’ve got me to protect you, so you can rest assured and do whatever you want to," Ethan said. From NôvelDrama.Org.
Anna put on a beautiful smile and said, “My passion is of course in jewelry design! The Lincoln Group also has jewelry business, so it might be a good idea to start a jewelry design studio.”
"Oh, I see. This is you little plan," Ethan couldn’t help but shrugging his shoulders and shaking head.
Anna stood there like a shy little girl with her hands behind her back.
"I've actually thought it through. I will take you post if I return to the headquarters, and those speculators in the company will always treat you as the family's son-i n-low and take me as the true heir. We can't tell if they will split into two fractions and start battling against each other," she said.
"Of course I'm the son-in-law, and of course it's me who married into the family and lived on my wife’s aid," Ethan closed the folder and said teasingly.
"No, you are not. Don't think you can hide from me that everyone in the company obeys you. People with high EQ like you are fit to be the top leader," Anna said and made a face.
"Me, on the contrary," Anna smiled, "I don't like staying at home all the time, so I might as well start a new department and be its leader. In this way, I will neither steal your post nor cause any change to the company. You know that I'm a Hamilton, in this way, the senior shareholders will also be assured and not worry that I might change the name of the company."
"I didn't expect that you are so considerate," Ethan said and nodded.
"Of course, I used to be a straight-A student back in school, and this here..." Anna pointed at her little head and said, "is not for decoration!"
Ethan looked at her lovingly.
Anna suddenly got flushed and said, "Carry on with your work, I'm off."
She rushed out of the study after dropping the words.
