Chapter 11 He’s Gay



Chapter 11 He’s Gay

Grandmother Dawson gazed at Anna with kind eyes.

"Yes, yes. Good girl. Anna, you look gorgeous! Come, sit beside me. Let me take a good look at you."

Anna quickly let go of Bryan's arm and took her seat beside Grandmother Dawson elegantly. She lovingly took Grandmother Dawson's arm.

"Grandma, I’m so sorry for arriving late," Anna apologized in a soft tone. Her beautiful eyes glistened i n the light.

Overjoyed, Grandmother Dawson grinned from ear to ear. "Anna, I'm delighted to see you looking so lovely! It’s a wonderful change.”

Grandmother Dawson extended her hand and gently stroked Anna's. Suddenly, tears began to well up in her eyes.

"Anna, your mother left us at such a young age. Every time I look at you, I’m reminded of her..." Grandmother Dawson's voice choked up.

A hint of sorrow appeared in Anna's beautiful eyes. Even so, she smiled and dabbed the tears off the corner of Grandmother Dawson's eyes with a tissue.

"Don't be sad, Grandma. It's your birthday.”

Grandmother Dawson held Anna's hand and smiled at her warmly. "Anna, you're both beautiful and caring.

I'm loving you more and more each day."

Just then, Nicole finally snapped out of her trance. She quickly came up to both of them.

"Oh, my... Anna, you look incredible today! You've had everyone in awe the moment you arrived."

The other guests began to grow rowdy again. "The Hamilton family has such good fortune-their younger daughter is already a stunner, who would have expected their elder daughter to be even more beguiling! What a perfect couple she makes with the Dawson's boy!"

Chloe's face was green with envy. She stared at Anna, who was being placed on a high pedestal. Her eyes filled with hatred and envy.

Another guest agreed to the comment. "Indeed!

They're like a match made in heaven."

"Grandmother Dawson is so lucky! Not only does she have an outstanding grandson, but also a beautiful granddaughter-in-law from a distinguished family."

Grandmother Dawson turned to Anna with an expression of satisfaction. She smiled and told Bryan, " Bryan, you must take care of Anna to the best of your abilities. Don't you dare bully her. I can't wait to have a great-grandchild!"

Bryan rubbed his nose then quickly replied, "Grandma, I love Anna so much. Why would I ever bully her?

After we get married, I assure you that you’ll have a great-grandson very soon."

Thrilled, Grandmother Dawson nodded her head again and again.

Meanwhile, Nicole's smile turned stiff. Hints of her jealousy leaked into her tone of voice.

"Grandma Dawson, don't worry about that. Anna hasn't been home these few days. I’m sure she was with Bryan. I believe you'll have a great-grandson in just a matter of months!"

Chloe glared at Anna with eyes as sharp as knives. In a low voice, she commented, "Mommy, if Anna was with Bryan, why did he call our landline so many times looking for Anna?"

Nicole tugged at Chloe's clothes, hinting at her to shut up. Hurriedly, she explained, "Anna is a very conservative girl-she would never simply spend the night in unfamiliar places. I'm sure she must have stayed at her schoolmate's house those few days."

Chloe pouted and mumbled, "Anna doesn’t seem to have any friends. Which classmate's house could she have stayed in?"

Grandmother Dawson’s eyes were fixed on the motherdaughter duo. She could clearly see that they were intentionally trying to put Anna on the spot.

The mother-daughter duo’s words had aroused some suspicion among the guests.

Since Anna was the future daughter-in-law of the Dawson family, the fact that she had not returned home for days would bring shame upon the Dawson family too.

Grandmother Dawson turned to Anna and inquired softly, "Anna, where were you these few days?”

Grandmother Dawson had to clear this up in front of all the guests. Otherwise, unwanted rumors might start to spread, tarnishing the name of both families.

Anna looked up, her beautiful eyes glistening. She smiled and answered, "I had LASIK surgery recently, s o I was staying in the hospital. I left my phone with the nurses, so I didn’t get the calls. So sorry for worrying you, Bryan.”

Bryan asked hastily, "Anna, why didn't you tell me about your surgery? I could have looked after you at the hospital..."

Before he could finish, Grandmother Dawson interrupted, "Alright, alright. That’s enough. Now that we've cleared things up, there’s no need to talk about this anymore. After all, I know our little Anna well.”

Grandmother Dawson shot a glance at Nicole.

Although her gaze was not particularly intense, Nicole still felt a chill down her spine. She did not dare to utter another word.

After that, Grandmother Dawson smiled and made an announcement to the crowd. "Tonight, I’d like to introduce a special guest to all of you. This mysterious man rarely shows up for any parties and had never shown his face in the media before."

Discussions broke out among the crowd.

"Never shown his face in the media before? Could it be that Grandma Dawson's nephew, Liam Ackman, is back?"

"That's possible! I heard that he arrived in the country just a few days ago. He must have came back for Grandma Dawson’s birthday party!"

When the ladies present heard the name Liam Ackman, their eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"The son of the billionaire Ackman family? He’s attending this party?”

"I heard that he's known for being an emotionless iceberg. It’s rumored that even from ten meters away, one can feel his uninviting aura."Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

"Oh, dear! I must go fix my makeup!"

"Even if you look like a goddess, the Ackman prince wouldn’t bat an eye at you.”

"Liam Ackman is gay! He had no interest in women."

"I heard that someone got a photograph of him entering a gay bar two days ago. Apparently, he spent the night there!"

The ladies’ hearts were shattered. They had no choice but to believe that the rich and handsome man, who never showed an ounce of interest in women and even frequented gay bars, was a gay man.
