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

Chapter 67 Don't Be Sad, You Still Have Me

Chloe glared at Nina angrily and yelled, "Nina Scott! What do you mean by that? I'm here to see my sister. What does this have to do with you?!”

Chloe then snickered and crossed her arms, "I've heard that you’re on different teams with my sister in this latest internship. Maybe you're planning to harm my sister while she’s hurt so that she won't be able to d o well. That way, she won't be able to compete for first place against you!"

"Chloe Hamilton! I’ve never met anyone as shameless a s you! I'll be d*mned if I’d harm Anna!"

"Nina! Watch your words!"

"Hurry up and leave! The door is right there, I won’t see you out. Leave and stop hurting our eyes with your presence!" Nina pointed towards the door.

Chloe was so angry that she puffed up her chest." That's is my sister. I'm a member of her family. You have no right as an outsider to order me about! The person who should leave is you! Hurry up and get out o f here!"

Chloe was furious. Were not for Nina, she would have succeeded!

Anna gripped Nina's hand tightly and softly said, " Chloe, you should head back. I’ll be fine with Nina here looking after me."

"Anna, Bryan specifically told me to take good care of you.”

"It's alright! You should head back."

Chloe saw Anna's look of indifference and felt her heart thump in her chest. Was it possible that Anna had been awake this whole time? Did she know that Chloe was about to harm her?

Chloe looked at Anna blankly. Her beautiful eyes were wrapped with white gauze. For a moment, it appeared as though two beams of bright light shot through the gauze directly at Chloe.

Chloe was so frightened that her heart shuddered abruptly. By the time she came back to her senses, Anna was wearing a smile.

"Chloe, you have always been delicate. How will you b e able to bear the hassle of looking after me? I can’t bear to let you look after me.”

A look of panic flashed across Chloe’s eyes. "Anna... I’m your sister. It’s only right for me to look after you."

"Chloe, it's the thought that counts. I'll remember your intentions and keep them in my heart. Nina is my good friend. There's no way that she would harm me. You don't need to worry about this."

Even though Anna's tone was cool and level, her words seemed to be laced with meaning. It made Chloe feel tense and uneasy.

Chloe tried hard to squash the emotions in her heart and forced out a smile. "Since you've said it's okay, I’ll head off now."

Chloe turned about and walked out of Anna's hospital room.

Anna slowly raised her head and faced the sun. Everything before her eyes remained dark but she could feel the warmth on her cheeks.

Anna gripped Nina's hands even tighter. Nina was now the only one that she could lean on.

"Anna..." Nina looked at her worriedly.

"I’m alright," replied Anna softly.

Only after Nina was sure that Anna was truly whole and unharmed did she let out a sigh of relief. "I don't know what Chloe was about to do to you! You can't see at all now, it makes me worry about you!"

Anna pursed her lips and smiled weakly. "It's okay, you don't have to worry."

Anna felt as though she had been sapped of all her strength. She slowly collapsed onto her bed.

"Anna!"

"I'm okay. I’m just a little tired."

When Nina saw that Anna’s complexion was pasty and pale, she became more concerned. "Anna, tell me the truth! Was Chloe about to do something to you? Tell me and I’ll be sure to make her pay!"

Anna gently shook her head.

She knew what Nina was like. Nina’s temper was explosive. She needed to be extremely careful of what she said. It was like she was walking on thin ice, otherwise, a single misstep would lose her the whole game.

Nina clasped Anna’s icy cold hands. Her eyes brimmed with tears.

"Poor Anna, you don't even have a person you can trust nor one who treats you well... Now that your eyes are like this, what are you supposed to do?”

Anna quietly lay on the bed. She did not make a sound, nor did she show any joy or sadness. It was like she had no trace of emotion within her.

Nina had never seen Anna this way before. Her calmness was tinged with sorrow, helplessness, and despair. It was like she was about to be devoured.

Nina did not know what to do. She quickly opened the food pack that she had brought. "Anna, I've made you some soup. Have some! After all, you’ll only have the energy to fight back when you have a full stomach! I’ll feed you."

Anna remained motionless.

"Anna?"

Nina wiped the tears from her eyes. Her heart felt like i t was being pierced by multiple nails. "Anna, please don't be like this... You're the daughter of the Hamilton family. Anna Hamilton! You can't let them beat you!"

"Anna... The doctor said that there’s a chance that your eyes will recover fully. However, you'll need treatment for them over the next few days. You won't g o blind!"

"Anna, don't be sad. You still have me... I'll always be with you." Nina gripped Anna's hand tightly. Her voice became all choked up. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Anna slowly turned her head. She followed the direction of Nina’s voice to look at her. "You're right. I still need to fight."

When she saw that Anna had regained her senses, Nina smiled and rushed to help Anna sit up. Nina began to feed her some soup.

"You should eat more and recover quickly. We'll see then if that b*tch Chloe will still put on airs before you!"

Nina thoughtfully blew on the soup then carefully delivered it to Anna’s mouth. "Anna, open up."

Anna burst into laughter, "Nina, I'm not a child."

"Anna, you’ve finally laughed! I was so worried before when I saw your sorrowful, despairing expression.”

Anna’s heart melted. "Nina, thank you. If it weren't for you..."

Anna paused abruptly and did not continue speaking.

"No need to thank me! Come, open wide. Good girl.

Have more soup..."

Anna swallowed the soup and felt her heart warm up inside her.

"Anna, you must be strong. While you're in the hospital, I'll come to see you whenever I have time. Hence, when I'm not here, you must look after yourself. Do you understand me?"

Anna gently nodded her head. "I'll definitely take care of myself."

Nina looked outside the door and lowered her voice to say, "Remember to watch out for Chloe. I always get the feeling that she's out to get you. A moment ago, when I was entering the room, it looked like she had something in her hand and was aiming for your eyes..."

Nina gasped in shock and her face went pale, "Anna! Could it be that Chloe wanted to blind you so that you will never be able to see again!?"

Anna lowered her head and remained silent for quite some time. "That's not possible! Nina, don’t overthink things. She wouldn't dare."

"Anna, she stole your fiance, what else would she not dare to do!? She's such a toxic person. I think that she must be the one who messed with your eye drops."

"Now that you can't see a thing, it's nearly impossible for you to defend yourself effectively. You must be on your guard at all times!”

Anna gently nodded her head. "I know. I’ll be careful.”

Nina suddenly stood up. Anna stretched out her hand and asked anxiously, "Nina, where are you going.?" "I-I... I have something to do. I’m going to head out for a moment. Wait for me. I'll be right back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Nina ran out of the hospital room in a rush.
