Chapter 136 Must Be Karma!
Chapter 136 Must Be Karma!
When Grandmother Dawson found Bryan in the washroom, she did not say anything. Instead, she turned away and returned to the dining hall.
In the dining hall, she flashed a kind smile at Anna." Anna, I wanted to ask you to stay for a while, but something came up that requires my attention. I might have to go out..."
Anna knew that Grandmother Dawson was asking her to leave. Before she could finish, Anna quickly smiled and replied.
"Grandma, I still have to complete some exercises for my foreign language class. I shall be taking my leave now." Anna yearned to escape from Liam as soon as possible. Otherwise, that pervert might come out with some sort of plan to devour her again.
Hearing that, Bryan quickly offered, "Grandma, I'll send Anna home."
He yearned to escape from Grandmother Dawson’s reproach. He thought that he could use Anna as a shield. Unexpectedly, Grandmother Dawson opposed i t.
"Let Liam send Anna home. Liam, would you mind sending your student home?" Grandmother Dawson flashed a vibrant smile at Liam as if begging for his help.
It would be a hassle for Liam to send her home.
After all, he was the great Ackman Prince-a man at the highest tip of the pyramid. Why would he be a driver!
However, when it came to Anna he would be willing.
"Sure," Liam answered cheerfully.
Anna instantly widened her eyes.
Grandmother Dawson did not know that she was practically tossing Anna into a tiger’s den!
Just as Anna was about to oppose, Grandmother Dawson smiled and said, "Anna, you must be worried about Chloe, right? I'll have the driver send her home. You go ahead and let Liam drive you home first.
"Liam, take good care of Anna.”
"Rest assured, Auntie. I will take good care of her," Liam replied as he turned to Anna. A profound look appeared in the corner of her eyes which only Anna could understand. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
"No, Grandma, I..."
"We’ll be leaving, Auntie," said Liam as he dragged Anna toward the door.
"Grandma..."
In the end, Anna was dragged by Liam out of the Dawson family mansion like a little chick.
Liam left with Anna. Grandmother Dawson brought
Bryan to her room and immediately slapped him.
"Grandma, let me explain!"
Bryan trembled in fear as he gazed at Grandmother Dawson.
Grandmother Dawson stared at him for a long time. Finally, she suppressed the rage in her heart and asked slowly.
"How long has it been?"
"Grandma, it’s not what you think..."
"Still trying to lie to me?!"
Bryan was sweating bullets from his palms. After struggling to speak for a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out some words. "It isn't what you think, Grandma."
"Bryan, Bryan, Bryan. What am I supposed to say to you! Not only are you unfaithful, but you are also a coward who cannot own up to the things you have done! How did I end up with a grandson like you!" Grandmother Dawson yelled in a booming voice. Petrified, Bryan's expression quivered.
"Grandma, let me explain..."
"What more is there to explain! Do you think I'm blind? Do you think I can't see the two of you flirting with your eyes!"
"Grandma..." "Does Anna know about this?" Grandmother Dawson was more concerned about that at the moment.
"I... I d-don't think so."
Grandmother Dawson took several deep breaths before she could calm herself down. "Makes sense. Otherwise, how could she withstand the two of you fooling around right in front of her face!"
The corner of Bryan’s lips twitched awkwardly." Grandma, it really isn't what you think... I-I didn't..."
Grandmother Dawson pointed her trembling finger at him. "How can you be so foolish? How dare you entangle yourself with that kind of woman!"
Bryan shivered. He spoke in a low and cowardly voice. "Grandma, I was wrong. There's nothing between me and her. There really isn't..."
Bryan still had no intention of admitting his infidelity. Even so, Grandmother Dawson’s sharp eyes had long seen through everything.
"It must have been going on for quite a while! I've always thought it weird that Nicole and Chloe would scheme against Anna and Ryan. Turns out, you are the root of it all!
"That mother-daughter duo had always been two-faced! Their goal is obvious-getting Chloe into the Dawson family! As for Anna's eyes, do you really believe that it was caused by a maid leaving alcohol in her room by mistake? I'm afraid it's not that simple!" 1
Bryan instantly furrowed his brows. "Grandma, are
you saying..."
"You little scoundrel! How can you not make such simple connections? You’re not worthy of the Dawson family name!"
Bryan lowered his head shamefully. "Grandma, she’s the one that's trying to seduce me. I don’t have any feelings for her at all."
"You’re still trying to argue?!" Grandmother Dawson chided angrily, "Playing around with your fiance's little sister! You really are going places!"
"You better make a clean break immediately!
Otherwise, I'll send her overseas tomorrow and never let her come back.”
Bryan nodded frantically. "I understand, Grandma. Please don't be mad."
"Bryan, I can turn a blind eye to it if you’re messing around with random people. But you are not allowed t o lay a finger on Chloe Hamilton! Don't underestimate that mother-daughter duo. They will climb the social ladder by any means. Don't let yourself fall into their traps!"
"A cunning woman like her cannot be part of the Dawson family!"
"I understand, Grandma. There really isn't anything between us. It's her who keeps pestering me. I find it annoying too," Bryan hurriedly explained to clear his name.
Grandmother Dawson gazed deeply at Bryan. She sighed. "Anna may have lost her vision, but that does not mean her eyes will never recover. No matter what, Anna is the true daughter born into a prestigious family. Chloe's status is nothing but an embarrassment."
Having said that, she shooed him out irritatedly. “Get out and think about the things I've said to you."
Bryan acknowledged her words with a short reply and meekly exited her room.
Grandmother Dawson sat in the room, chanting verses from the bible in her hand. After a long while, she let out a deep sigh.
"Will the Dawson family crumble in the hands of that brat? Must be karma!" 1
Just then, a maid opened the door and came in. She inquired quietly about what to do with Chloe.
Grandmother Dawson waved her hand annoyedly." Hurry up and send her away. Don’t let her stay here and bring bad luck to the mansion!"
"But Ms. Chloe is adamant about seeing you, Madam Dawson."
Grandmother Dawson scoffed disdainfully. "She wants to see me? Who does she think she is? Get the driver to send her back to the Hamiltons' home. Tell Daniel to rein in his daughter." "Understood,
Madam Dawson."
Liam's car was driven at an extremely slow speed.
James was the driver. Liam and Anna sat in the backseat together.
Anna was a little agitated. Her hands were tightly clenched together.
After having the experience of being devoured in the car by Liam, she was anxious about her safety of the car at that moment.
She glanced at the sunny atmosphere outside and thought that even he would not be such an animal in broad daylight. Moreover, James was with them. She thought of all that and subtle let out a sigh of relief.
Liam gazed at her a few times. Liam could not help but frown when he noticed her erratic breathing.
"What are you thinking about?” he asked.
Anna shook her head. She pressed her lips tightly together, not saying a word. She did not want that quick-witted beast to twist her words again.
The car was driven onto a secluded street. There were neither cars nor people around them.
Liam said to the man in the driver's seat, "James, you should go get some fresh air outside.”
James quickly stepped on the brakes. "Yes, Mr.
Ackman.” "No!” Anna yelled frantically.
