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

Chapter 96 That Pervert Deserves to Die!

"Anna, I know that you've always been biased against your sister. That's why you think she had something t o do with this! But it's not like you don't know your sister's personality. She's a timid girl. Moreover, she respects you very much, so how can she do anything t o hurt you?"

Anna felt a sharp pain in her heart. She clutched tightly onto her blanket.

She tried her best to put on a faint smile. "Chloe is indeed an obedient and adorable girl! Of course, she won’t do anything to hurt me!"

Anna did not expect Daniel to stand by Chloe's side even to this day.

She was starting to wonder which one of them was his real daughter!

"Anna, I've investigated things at home and it turns out that the maid had accidentally left the disinfectant alcohol, that's used to clean windows, on your dressing table. You must have mistake the alcohol for your eyedrops while you were busy talking on the phone with Nina."

Anna stared at Daniel. For a while there, Daniel felt as i f Anna's gaze had turned terrifyingly frigid. He could feel the chill in his chest.

"Anna?" He called out perplexedly. For a moment, he felt as if Anna could see.

Anna smiled and reached out her hand to feel for Daniel's. In a low tone, she replied, "Oh, so that's what happened! How can the maid be so careless."

"I've already kicked the maid out."

Anna's lips were curled up. "Dad, I'll tell Grandpa that I didn't take care of my eyes well after the LASIK surgery, causing some minor injuries to my eyes so I'll have to stay in the hospital for a while. I won’t tell him that I can't see.

"I can't let him worry about me from so far away."

"You're such a thoughtful child, Anna!" Daniel's expression loosened up. He was clearly very relieved t o hear that.

"Your grandpa is not young anymore. He is our elder, s o we must be more considerate toward him," Daniel smiled and said.

Anna still could not fathom why he was so afraid of her grandfather finding out about her vision loss.

After pondering upon it for a while, Anna realized that her grandfather would probably blame Daniel for not taking good care of her if he were to find out about her eyes.

Perhaps Daniel was afraid of being blamed.

"Dad, about the company, I think you should follow my suggestion."

Daniel contemplated it for a while. "Alright, you are in no shape to take over the company right now, so I’ll manage it for you temporarily. When you've recovered, I'll hand the company over to you and I can enjoy my retirement."

Anna smiled. "Dad, there's something else I'd like to discuss with you."

"What's that?"

Anna pressed her lips together. She felt a little troubled. "I'm not sure if you'll agree to it."

Daniel was in a good mood. He grinned and said, "I'm your father, what are you holding back for? Just tell m e."

"Well, Dad, my marriage with Bryan... Let's postpone that too."

"What?"

"Dad, look at me now. Bryan may not say anything on the surface, but I know that in his heart, he must be feeling extremely pressured!" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Daniel patted Anna's hand and spoke sincerely, "You are a smart and obedient child. Madam Dawson loves you so. I also approve of the boy, Bryan. I trust that you'll be very happy when you're married to him.

"You may not be able to see for now, but I know Bryan won't shun you because of that."

Anna chuckled wryly in her heart. The son-in-law that her father approved of had been playing around under the sheets with the younger daughter that he pampered so. If Daniel found out about that, Anna wondered if he would still claim that Bryan could give her a happy life!

"What if my eyes never heal..." Anna held her head low and said despairingly.

"Nonsense! Anna, you will definitely get better! The doctor has said it too-it’s just temporary vision loss," Daniel refuted.

"But the doctor also said that I only have a fifty-fifty chance of recovering! What if I'm on the bad side of that ratio?" Anna bit her lip dejectedly.

"If I can’t get better, I don’t want to drag Bryan down with me."

Daniel's heart ached. He kept silent for a long time and gazed at Anna's hollow eyes. He gradually opened his mouth and said, "Alright, we'll make the suggestion, and if the Dawson family doesn't agree to i t, we'll discuss this again. If they agree to it, I’m sure that the Dawson family will be grateful for your consideration and will never treat you badly."

"The Dawson family has always been considerate toward me, so we should treat them with the same thoughtfulness and not put them in a tight spot," Anna commented.

"Alright, Anna. When you’ve been discharged, we will find time to discuss this between the two families."

Daniel stayed with Anna for a little while longer, then left.

The room turned quiet again.

Anna turned her head toward the window. Sunlight permeated the room through the window. There was not a corner in the room where the darkness could hide.

She mumbled to herself, "If I had nothing, what will each one of you do?"

She lay on the bed, staring at the pure white ceiling. She felt drained as if she had just come back from a grueling battle.

She glanced at her phone and saw that it was already noon.

'Didn't Micheal say he's gonna examine me again today? Why isn't he here yet?'

Although her father had also believed in her vision loss, Anna did not feel any joy in her heart. In fact, her heart felt even heavier.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed. It was a text message.

[It's lunchtime.]

'Liam?

'How did he know I haven't eaten lunch?'

The food that the nurse brought in was already cold, but Anna had no appetite.

Anna put down her phone and gazed at the painting hung on the wall in front of her.

'When was there a painting on that wall? And why is it hung crooked?’

She walked up to the wall, wanting to straighten the painting. To her surprise, she discovered a hole behind the painting!

She touched the hole curiously. It was very deep as if i t ran all the way to the room next door!

She pressed herself against the wall and peeped through the hole. In an instant, smoked bellowed out from the top of Anna's head.

As she expected, the hole ran all the way to the room next door! Coincidentally, it led to Liam's hospital room! From his room, he could peep into hers!

'That pervert deserves to die! How could he drill a hole through the wall!’

Just as Anna was about to pull her eye away from the hole, Liam walked by and sat on his hospital bed. He only had a towel loosely wrapped around his waist. One could vaguely make out the thing below his sexy V-lines...

Anna's face instantly flushed red.

She quickly stood up, covering her burning cheeks with her hands. Her heart thumped violently.

'Liam Ackman! You perverted voyeur!’

Anna stroked her chest, trying to calm herself down. She recalled her days in the hospital in detail and realized that she had not changed her clothes or worn any revealing outfits in her room.

"Ah..."

The redness had spread to her fair neck. Anna left out a soft groan as she slowly slid down the wall and squatted on the floor.

She had always wondered how did Liam know when she had visitors. Since he would always barge in almost immediately after her visitors entered.

The hole would also explain why Liam was the first person to see through her 'blind act'.

'Ah... What a terrifying pervert!'

Anna abruptly stood up and marched toward the door. However, just as she was about to open the door, she hesitated.

"No, I can’t. If I go over now, wouldn’t it be like throwing myself into a tiger’s den?"

She was even more discouraged when she thought back on the arguments she had with him-she never won once. Thus, she decided to retreat.

She took a roll of paper from the table and smiled slyly. Anna forcibly stuffed the roll of paper into the hole.

'Humph!

'Peep at that, you perverted voyeur!'

Anna dusted her hands merrily and returned to her bed. She proceeded to wrap herself up like a burrito.
