Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam)

Chapter 102 A Unique Confession

Anna held her phone in her hand and watched as the messages popped up on her phone. She was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of messages sent.

[Hello, fellow student, who are you? Why are you sending angry face emops to Geeky Anna?]

[The student looks familiar. Is he a freshman?]

[What happened between you and Geeky Anna?]

[You should be asking what did Geeky Anna did to him.]

U H

Charles did not respond. Thus, the nosy students started tagging him in their messages, but he still never replied.

The students made a few more curious guesses, then the group chat slowly died down, seeing that none of the two main characters was replying.

Suddenly, someone sent a link to a lucky draw in the group. Once again, the chat blew up.

[Wow, the prizes are amazing!]

[Thank you, good sir.]

[Thank you, boss.]

Words of thanks dominated the entire chat.

Anna could not help but click in as well.

Ding, ding, ding!

Anna could not believe she won a huge prize of 66 dollars!

Meanwhile, some were whining in the group chat. [I only got one cent...]

[Must be karma.]

[One cent is still money, okay?]

Suddenly, someone sent a huge 'wow' sticker. [Geeky Anna got the grand prize! She won the grand prize in Charles's lucky draw!]

The group chat blew up again. [There must be something going on between these two!]

[Geeky Anna isn't replying, but she still played the lucky draw.]

Anna quickly scrolled up the chat and realized that Charles was the one who sent the lucky draw link.

She was too busy snatching prizes that she failed to notice who sent the link.

'God!

'I just exposed myself! How can I pretend I'm offline after that?’

Just then, another lucky draw popped up. Everyone hurriedly clicked into it to get the grand prize.

Another wave of 'thank you’ messages filled the chat.

Anna tried her best to resist the temptation of clicking into the lucky draw. She clenched her teeth and stared at the screen.

To everyone's surprise, Charles hosted more lucky draws with irresistible prize pools. It was as if he was a wealthy nobleman who opened up his granary to relieve the peasants during times of disaster.

Charles spammed the chat with lucky draws. Their fingers were already getting sore from snatched all those prizes.

[God! What a generous man!]

[Is today the day Daddy Bezos bless us with incredible deals?]

[I love people who give out prizes without saying a word.]

[Go on, don’t stop-]

They started to calculate the amount of money Charles had given out, but it was simply uncountable.

[I won a few thousand dollars! I can buy a ten-year supply of bread with this!]

[I love you!]

[Charles, we all love you!]

[Charles, you’re our idol...]

In an instant, Charles became a god in the school group chat.

Anna stared mournfully at the lucky draws he sent.' Tch! I'm such an idiot! Why didn't I click in?

‘What am I pretending to be offline for? I lost out on so much!'

She could once again be certain that there was something wrong with Charles’s head!

'No matter how rich he is, he still shouldn't be splurging like this! Is money just a number to him?’

Anna thought back on the times she hosted lucky draws for her friends. Her prizes were merely ten or twenty dollars! When compared to Charles’s prizes, Anna felt so embarrassed that she wanted to bury herself in a hole.

A lucky draw was an event loved by all. Everyone would feel a sense of accomplishment no matter what prize they won.

When they noticed that Charles had stopped posting links, they started to make noise again. 1

[Where'd he go?]

[Did he empty his bank account?]

[Don't panic, brother. Do you need us to return some of it?]

[Good sir, don’t leave us...]

After all those queries, Charles finally came back. He tagged Anna in his message. [Little Annie didn't get any of my prizes. I won’t host anymore.]

Once again, the group chat blew up.

[Wow! Little Annie!]

[How sweet!]

[Is this some flamboyant way of confessing your love?]

[So sweet!!!]

[Wow, so manly! How delightful! I love it.]

[A confession through lucky draws... How romantic! And macho too! Charles, our Geeky Anna loves you too ~]

Everyone started calling out for Anna.

[Anna, Anna, come and play his lucky draws! Charles just confessed to you!]

The chat was flooded with mentions of Anna. 1

Anna held her phone in her hand, blushing. Her heart thumped violently.

'This 'Charles'...

'Who is he? What is he doing?’

Following that, Charles's lucky draws flooded the chat again.

Unexpectedly, the entire group went silent. No one clicked into the links he sent. It was as if they were all waiting for something.

Just then, Anna's phone rang. It was Nina.

"Anna, quick, open the university group chat!

Someone is confessing to you with lucky draw events! The prizes are incredible! I think he gave out tens of thousands of dollars already! All the students are going crazy about it!

"Even the lecturers and the principal are taking part!"

Having said that, Nina hastily hung up.

Anna could not hold back her curiosity. She clicked into the group chat. Some unknown person had already snatched the first prize and sent a message to the group.

[Wow! Such a huge prize! I almost dropped my phone from shock! Is there some kind of event today? Is it the university's founding anniversary or something?]

That student was instantly attacked by all the others i n the group chat.

[Spit it out! That's Anna’s prize!]

[How dare you snatch Anna's prize!]

[You better spit it out right now!]

The student had no idea what was going on, but still obediently returned the amount he won and even apologized.

[I just opened the chat just now. I saw a lucky draw and clicked in without thinking! I'm so sorry. Hahaha.]

Anna stared at the attractive links on her screen. Her fingers trembled uncontrollably. She yearned to click

into them.

Finally, Anna clenched her teeth, took a deep breath, then clicked into every single lucky draw in the chat.

"Wow!

"Damn!

"Holy...!"

The prizes were indeed incredible!

Even Anna was taken by surprise.

The students saw that Anna had already tried her luck. Thus, the rest of them started to snatch up the prizes too.

[Amazing! I think I might get a heart attack!]

[I’ve become a wealthy man today! That means good food for dinner!]

[Thank you, Geeky Anna. Thank you, Charles.]

[Thank you, Geeky Anna. Thank you so much...] Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Anna facepalmed. 'Why are they thanking me?'

Charles's prizes rained down in the group chat. All the students in the chat were going crazy. It was the first time the chat became so rowdy since the day the group was formed. Even the Principle Mason, who never said a word in the chat, had sent a message.

[Looks like I can pop open a bottle of 1982 Chateau Lafite tonight. Thank you, Hamilton. Thank you, Charles.] Principle Mason's message was what started a chain of gratified messages toward Anna.

[Charles, your confession is so unique.]

[It’s so romantic!]

[We support the union of Charles and Geeky Anna!]

Following that, a series of messages cheering on their' union’ flooded the chat. Anna was completely flustered.

[Anna, don't just snatch his prizes, say something!]

[That's right, say something.]

The students had all been bought over by Charles's cash prizes. They all prodded Anna to say something.

Flustered, Anna clicked into Charles’s profile again.

Just as before, it was empty.

'Who the hell is he?'
