At the Ackman Skyhigh Group.
James looked at his phone screen, which kept flashing to remind him of an incoming call. However, he didn't pick it up.
If someone called him by this number, it must be about Anna.
This was because the number belonged to a private detective who was responsible for tracking Anna and monitoring all her movements.
Taking a glance at Liam, who was still in a meeting, James suppressed his urge to answer the call.
If he was too busy to answer it, the other party might send him a text message.
Thinking of this possibility, James waited anxiously for the meeting to end.
Liam finally brought this meeting to a close. After putting the documents into his leather folder, he stood up and walked out of the conference room.
"James, send another copy of my schedule for tomorrow morning to my mobile phone."
James hurriedly followed behind and said, “Mr.
Ackman, your schedule has been sent to your phone, and I’ve also prepared the luggage for you. But someone called you just now..."
"Who?" Liam frowned, with a hint of fatigue on his angular face, which was caused by overtime working.
After he saw the caller ID, an unreadable look appeared on his face and he quickly called back.
Upon hearing the private detective's words, Liam no longer stayed calm and indifferent. Instead, he wore a surprised and grave expression now. Then he said to James in a decisive tone, "Cancel all my arrangements for today and tomorrow."
"OK, I got it." James took a deep breath.
He had known the result would be like this!
Liam refused to attend such an important meeting without any hesitation!
But this was within James' expectation, for he was pretty sure that Anna was the most important person for Liam.
In Liam’s view, nothing else in this world could be compared with Anna.
They quickly got into the black business car and rushed to the hospital.
Outside the rescue room.
When Grandmother Dawson saw Bryan being pushed out of the ward with his head wrapped in thick gauze, her eyes turned red again and she couldn't help crying
loudly.
"My poor grandson! How could they be so heartless to hurt you like this..."
Seeing Grandmother Dawson weep like buckets, Anna indeed felt sorry for her.
As a soft-hearted person, she sympathized with Grandmother Dawson.
Fortunately, Bryan was rescued in time and he was out of danger now.
"Grandma, I'm so sorry to let Bryan go through all this," Anna apologized sincerely.
"Shut up! I don’t want to see you now!" Grandmother Dawson’s face twisted in anger, which made her look dignified and horrible.
"What is going on?" The moment Liam stepped out of the elevator, he heard the reprimand coming from the corridor, and he instantly put on a solemn look.
He walked over and directly blocked Anna behind him, showing a protective posture.
Liam’s behavior broke Grandmother Dawson's heart. She asked, "Do you also want to protect her?"
Her nephew had always been taciturn, and she didn’t expect him to be so earnest and persistent in love for s o many years.
Then she sighed deeply, "Bryan was almost killed by them!"
She pointed to Ethan and Anna.
Liam slightly frowned.
"The Dawson family can afford the medical expenses!" Grandmother Dawson snapped.
"Aunt Dawson, please let them be responsible for that!" Liam glanced at Anna, with a flash of affection i n his eyes.
Since her nephew stood on Anna's side, Grandmother Dawson was so angry that the wrinkles on her face were tightly twisted together. Then she wobbled towards Bryan's ward.
However, before entering the door, she suddenly stopped and said, "Liam, don’t let me down. I won't easily let them go.”
Even if her grandson did something wrong first, she didn't believe that Ethan could escape responsibility after hurting him so badly.
At the very least, she must let Anna know that she couldn't easily offend the Dawson family, otherwise she would always feel that Bryan was persecuting her.
"I’m afraid I will disappoint you. No one is allowed to lay a finger on my woman." Liam wore a firm expression, with a sharp look in his deep eyes.
Grandmother Dawson turned around angrily.
Liam then gave an order in a cold voice, "James, send someone to contact the dean now and lock down the whole inpatient building. No one is allowed to enter or leave this place without my order."
"Yes, sir!" James answered obediently, but he stole a glance at Anna with admiration.
Liam had indeed sacrificed a lot for this woman.
Within ten minutes, several bodyguards ran to their floor at a consistent pace.
The sonorous and powerful pace indicated that they had received professional training.
They walked straight to their posts and stood still, as i f they didn’t see the current situation.
Anna looked at them with great surprise. She was touched by what Liam did for her.
Grandmother Dawson was completely rendered speechless.
"Liam, I can’t believe you called so many bodyguards over for the sake of a woman. Do you also want to block me inside?"
