Chapter 76 You Can’t Call Yourself A Man
Anna smelt the musk of Liam's body and felt her heart stop. She was worried that someone might see them and rushed to push him off forcefully.
"Let go of me! Don't hug me like that!"
Liam began to use more force and hugged her tighter. He drew closer and said through gritted teeth, "Aren't you heartbroken now that you've knocked over the soup that your fiance personally made for you?" "Whether I'm heartbroken or not, it's my business! It has nothing to do with you! Let go of me! Hurry up and let go of me!"
"Are you protecting your chastity for your fiance?"
Anna lost her patience. "Have you gone mad? Aren't you a patient here? Why don't you quietly stay in your room? Why do you always have to come running to my room!?"
Liam continued to exert more force causing Anna to feel as though she was being suffocated. His cold breath washed over her and flooded her nostrils, making her feel confused. She continued to struggle but was still unable to push him away. She was unable to avoid his breath that was drawing closer.
Liam's nose was already pressed against the tip of hers. His voice was deep, cold, and filled with a sense of danger.
"Anna Hamiton, don't forget how he treated you before! More so, don't forget that you're my woman now!"
Anna's hands that were pressed against his chest abruptly stopped struggling. She speechlessly looked in his direction, feeling panic-stricken. Her little lips trembled.
"You..."
She opened her mouth but made no sound.
Liam raised an eyebrow. "Go ahead and say what you mean to say!"
He hated it when people stopped speaking mid-way. He was never in the mood to guess what the other party wanted to say.
Especially this little lady before him. He always felt that even if he racked his brains to guess what she was thinking, he would still never be able to fully understand her.
Sometimes, he wished that he could peel open her heart and take a good look at what was contained inside it.
"You... are you..." Anna hesitated for quite some time. She took a deep breath before she was able to speak the words on her mind.
"Have you fallen for me!?"
She could not see Liam's expression but sensed Liam's body freeze abruptly. The room descended into an endless silence, not a sound could be heard.
Anna waited for some time but did not get an answer. She said impatiently, "If you don't, then please maintain a respectable distance from me! I'm not that kind of woman, Mr. Ackman. Uncle, if you want to find. a woman and have some fun with her, you should find another target."
Anna coldly pushed his arms aside. His arms suddenly tightened. His domineering and enraged voice rang out explosively beside her.
"How could I have fallen for you! You're completely mistaken!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liam released Anna and turned around, stomping as he left. He even shut the door with a loud slam!
Anna was a little confused.
"Mad man! Crazy fool! Pervert! Sick in the head!"
"You better leave me alone! Never appear before me again! If you dare to get involved in my life again! If you do, you're not Liam Ackman! You can't call yourself a man!!"
Anna shouted into the air, releasing all the anger in her heart.
A moment later, the door opened once again.
Anna thought that it was Liam so she shouted, "Why have you returned! Get lost!!! Don't ever appear before me again!"
The cleaning lady was shocked. "Miss Hamilton... I'm here to clean your room."
Anna felt embarrassed. She fumbled as she got onto her bed and hid under the cover.
Anna was extremely frustrated. However, the cleaner lady cleaned, again and again, making such a racket that Anna's head began to hurt.
"Why is it taking so long? Is it still not clean?" asked Anna unhappily.
The cleaner lady continued to mop as she answered," Mr. Ackman instructed me to clean your room a few times. Otherwise, the floor might be too slippery and might cause you to trip."
UH
Anna felt the flames of anger inside her heart instantly disappear. It transformed into a ball of cotton, lodging itself in her throat but she was unable to spit it out nor could she swallow it. "I'm sorry, ma'am. I spoke too harshly earlier because I was in a terrible mood."
"It's alright, Miss Hamilton. You're unwell right now and you can't see. It's perfectly normal for you to feel frustrated."
After that, the cleaning lady sighed. "When a person gets ill, they'll need their family around. Otherwise, they'll feel anxious inside. However, you've been here for several days now. Why hasn't a single person from your family come to visit you? On the other hand, it seems like Mr. Ackman is the one who cares a lot about you. He frequently reminds us that you can't see so we need to look after you carefully."
Anna suddenly felt a dampness around her eyes. She took several deep breaths to settle her emotions and told herself, 'Don't let your heart be moved, don't develop feelings!'
'Anna Hamilton, that man told you with his own mouth that he doesn't like you. Don't be stupid and walk into that trap. Haven't you learned your lesson with Bryan?'
"Ma'am, could you please help me throw out the roses on the desk? I don't like that smell."
"Will do, Miss Hamilton."
Liam returned to his own hospital room and took the documents that James had brought over. However, not a single word made sense to him.
James could see that Liam looked unhappy and thought that there was some mistake with the document. As soon as he was about to speak, he heard Liam ask softly. "Do you know how to cook?"
The corner of James' mouth twitched. What was up with Liam today?
However, he still answered honestly, "Yes... A little."
"What do you mean by 'a little'! You either know or you don't!"
"Yes, I know how to!" answered James hurriedly.
Liam looked at James doubtfully. "You know how to cook as a bachelor?"
UH
James felt as though his heart was bleeding inside.
'Mr. Ackman, asking if I know how to cook or not? What do you want from me!?'
"I know how to make a couple of simple home dishes," replied James cautiously.
"Ok, teach me how."
"..." James thought that he had misheard. His eyes went wide as he looked at Liam disbelievingly.
"Mr. Ackman, did you say that you want me to teach you how to cook?"
Liam's expression turned cold. "Can you do that or not?"
"Umm... Yes, I can." James wanted to tear his hair out. Of course, he would not dare to say no, "Send me back to Fitzrovia Hills." Fitzrovia Hills was an extremely famous wealthy area in Johannes City. Liam's private mansion was located in the most central and most high-end spot within Fitzrovia Hills.
The roads in this area were surrounded by London Plane trees on both sides. The trees provided shade as the cars drove by and the scenery was extremely beautiful.
James bought a lot of ingredients and also a variety of seasonings, as well as any equipment that could be used for cooking.
This was because Liam's kitchen only had a refrigerator and many bottles of mineral water.
Liam rolled up his sleeves, revealing his chiseled arms. "Let's start."
After that, a constant stream of Liam's scolding unhappily rang out from the kitchen.
"James, the way you've chopped this looks terrible."
"James, get rid of that chili. I don't like spicy food."
"James, do you know how to cook or not!"
"James, get out of the way. I'd be better off reading a cookbook!"
UH
James felt as though he was about to have a mental breakdown. He used to think that his boss was a genius. He was unstoppable in the business world and also excelled at everything in life. However, it now seemed as though God was fair!
After battling for four hours, Liam finally carried four dishes and a soup to the hospital, feeling pleased with himself. He did not return to his own room, instead, he headed for Anna's hospital room.
