When Anna entered her office, she found her father standing there with her secretary and to be honest she was really shocked to see him after so long. He has personally left everything on her shoulders to manage and this wasn't what she had expected.
"Dad... good morning. It's nice to see you." She greeted him then formally and he nodded his head in acknowledgment. But first, he looked at Anna from top to bottom and frowned.
"You look tired. Did something happen at home? I can see that you didn't sleep last night." As she had expected, her father's eyes were quite sharp and this has always made her wonder why is her father so possessive and is able to see if she has slept or not?
"I had some work. Anyways, what are you doing here? I had no appointment to meet you today, right?" Anna asked but she a see that he looked a little different. His always, calm face was a little bit tense and she failed to understand why?
"Secretary, I would like to have some files and I already told you, go and find them before the afternoon," Liam said and the secretary left after receiving the instructions. But all of this wasn't making any sense to Anna at all.
From the very beginning, he had left for her to handle and suddenly, he appeared out of nowhere without any call. This is surprising for her.
Clearing his throat, he looks at Anna with his clear thoughts, "Anna, since Alex Has returned, we haven't talked about it in any time. I thought that was important so I came here to speak to you."
When this name came to her once again, she can feel that her legs were giving up. But for now, she maintained a smile on her face and replied, "What do you want to know? That he is the Ceo of the A&W group? You are aware that we are competitors and also, he is the father of a child. What else do you wish to know?"
"That, how are you doing? Have you accepted the reality after..that night at Sean and Kath?" Anna remained silent and she did not reply to him. Instead, ignoring her father and her father, Anna, moved to the workplace and at on her seat.
Resting Her head she closed her mind and Liam kept on staring at her car with his confused eyes. her actions were very much confusing to him, he failed to turn what she wanted to convey?
"Anna..I'm simply concerned about you. You know that very well."
"Dad, I think you have no business coming in my personal life, just that I don't ask you about your mistress and mom's affair. So, I think we should keep this topic aside because if you asked then I also have the same right and in a similar manner, you won't be able to answer my questions."
Anna made her stand clear. She doesn't wish to entertain any questions related to Alex at all, after all, this was her life and it only connected the three people in the whole world. No one else!
Especially her father, who looks like he cared for her mother and her, but on the strong note, he is keeping his mistress with him, despite knowing that her mother still loves him and respects him!
"Anna, I'm your father and I have that right to ask you about your personal things. I wish that you do not make any mistake in your life-like-"
Anna smiled, a smirk on her cheek, provoking to him, "As you committed? Do it over, I don't have any such statement. You do not know your daughter at all, I guess. But do not worry, I won't commit any mistake as you think so. You see, I'm quite mature in such cases!" bashfully and harshly, Anna insulted her father in every manner.
At last, she does respect him in every manner but somewhere, she does feels that reluctance from his side as always. Whatever reasons and excused he might give, she will always make him realize that he is too wrong.
First of all, he was the one, who brings the topic of her and Alex in this. If her father Liam isn't able to solve his matter, especially related to her mother, how can she give him this opportunity to come into her life once again just like before?
He has once already destroyed it when he decided to give it to Chris and make her engaged at such an early age, but he still dares to give advice when she is least interested in listening to his point of view.
"I will talk to you when you leave your hat mistress and make her go out of your house. Also, either way, you can divorce my mother. Except for our personal lives, if you have any business with me, you can speak now."
Liam's eyes were shallow and deeply cold. He looked angry but at the same time, he did not utter in vainglory. But his veins were popping, but Anna did not care at least.
After a minute of silence, Anna noticed that her father's hand which was earlier converted into a fist, now was replaced and he had calmed down a little bit. 'His anger, even at this age is as high as the sky. But why can't he simply leave Jenna and be with mom?' It's always made her confused.
She doesn't know the reasons behind his this actions but somehow, she had guessed that father's mistress might be blackmailing her father in such away. But at least he can tell them? It has been so many years! Almost, 10 years!
"Anna, you have changed. But let us leave this aside. I was here to talk to you about whether you wish to tell Alex about your Kiara? She is his daughter."
