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

Chapter 98 Vicious Like a Poisonous Thom

Anna kept staring at the hole in the wall, constantly afraid of Liam peeping at her.

Anna clenched her teeth in anger. "Aren't you afraid I'll report you!"

She walked circles around her room for a long time, yet did not hear a squeak from Liam’s side. 'What is he doing? Is he even in his room?'

If he was not in his room, Anna would not need to spend her day in fear.

Anna leaned against the wall and positioned one eye a t the opening of the hole. Carefully, she gazed into the room behind the wall.

Liam’s room did not look like a hospital room at all. Instead, it looked like a modern office equipped with everything one would need for work-it even had a photocopy machine.

She scanned the entire room and realized that Liam was not there.

She let out a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to shift her gaze away, a handsome face magnified before her eye until all she could see was an ink-black eye.

"Ah!"

Anna yelped out of shock. She stumbled backward and fell butt-first on the floor.

Liam's voice sounded from next door. "What are you looking at? Aren’t you afraid I'll report you?"

'He heard me say that?

'That pervert!'

"If you want to see it, just say the word and I'll take my pants off for you."

"You shameless bastard!” Anna quickly covered her eyes.

"Since you've lost your vision, I can let you touch it instead.” Liam grinned from ear to ear. He seemed to b e in a good mood.

Anna grabbed the roll of paper and furiously stuffed it into the hole. Then, she straightened the painting on the wall to cover it.

Just then, someone knocked at her room door.

Thinking it was Liam, Anna yelled, "Scram! I don't want to see you!"

Bryan's distressed voice sounded from outside the door. "Anna, are you mad at me for not visiting you often? I'm sorry, Anna. Come open the door."

Anna clambered up from the floor and felt her way to her bed. Her vacant eyes were staring into the distance.

"I need to calm down! Don’t disturb me!" Anna was in n o mood to deal with Bryan. The only thing he could make her feel was disgust.

Bryan was worried that Anna might be overwhelmed with grief in that locked room of hers. He quickly called for the nurse to unlock the door.

As usual, Bryan held a huge bouquet of roses in his arms. The nurses were all staring with envy.

"Ms. Hamilton is such a lucky girl to receive a bouquet every day. We're all so jealous."

"Anna, why did you lock yourself in the room? I hope you're not feeling overwhelmed." Bryan darted into the room and held Anna's hand.

Anna pulled her hand away and uttered coldly, "I'm not."

"Good, good. You scared me for a while..." Bryan put down the bouquet in his arms and inquired in a caring tone, "Anna, have you been examined? What did the doctor say? When will you be discharged?"

Just then, Micheal came in with a stack of papers and said to Anna and Bryan, "Ms. Hamilton, your lab results are out. Your body has healed well, so you can rest at home now."

Anna was confused. When did he run any tests on her?

Micheal was also an expert actor. He laid out the papers on the table one by one. "We can begin your discharge procedure right now if it's convenient for you. Nonetheless, Ms. Hamilton, make sure you continue to rest well and eat healthily at home."

"Congrats, Anna! You can finally go home," Bryan congratulated happily. Then, he turned to Micheal and asked, "Dr. Hart, about Anna’s eyes..."

Micheal glanced at Anna, then shook his head. "It's hard to say... Even I can't predict when will her eyes recover." Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Micheal expounded some other precautions for Anna t o take at home and left her with a written prescription for her medicine.

Bryan turned to Anna with a pitiful expression. "Anna, don't worry, you will definitely recover your vision! Perhaps it'll only take a few more days of rest!"

Anna turned away and gazed at the red roses on the table. Her eyes appeared vacant and unfocused.

In truth, she despised the color red. The blood-like color would always evoke the most painful memory in her head.

Her mother laying in a puddle of blood...

Anna quickly shut her eyes, dispelling the horrid scene in her mind. Even so, she could still smell the floral fragrance of the roses. Anna felt a lump in her throat.

She endured the revulsion in her heart and smiled.

"Let’s go."

Bryan helped her put on her sunglasses and said in a loving tone, "Alright, let's go home."

As Bryan helped her out of the room, Anna turned back to glance at the painting on the wall again.

Behind that painting was a hole; behind that hole were Liam's eyes, which were as dark as the midnight sky.

'I'm leaving!

'Does he know?'

All of a sudden, she felt reluctant to leave.

That was when she realized how happy she was in the hospital those few days. It was as if she had forgotten all about the things that troubled her.

Anna came out of the room with Bryan, yet Liam never jumped out to block their way.

Anna thought about it for a while, then realized that Liam had no reason to stop her anymore. Besides, it was about time she went home!

As they left the hospital, Anna felt as if something had been taken away from within her heart.

She felt a strange feeling of distance growing between Liam and her as she got further and further away from him.

On the way home, Anna leaned against her seat, gazing at the busy traffic through the car window. Endless grief filled her heart.

Home?

A home was supposed to be a place filled with warmth, yet upon arrival, her home felt like a frigid ice cave.

"Welcome home, Anna." 1

"Welcome home, Anna. Thanks for your trouble, Bryan.” 1

Just as they entered the house, Nicole and Chloe came out to welcome her.

Nicole carefully inspected Anna's eyes. Her heart was filled with joy, yet her expression showed boundless compassion.

"Anna, are you feeling any discomfort? Do your eyes hurt? You really can't see anything?" Nicole sniffled as she asked those questions.

"Oh, my dear Anna, how did you suddenly turn blind? I've been worried sick about you all these days... It's all because of my weak body. I keep getting colds, and I was afraid I might pass it to you. That's why I didn't visit you at the hospital.

"Now that you're home, I can stay by your side every day and take good care of you. I promise that I'll help you speed up your recovery!”

Anna’s hollow eyes stared straight ahead. From the corner of her eyes, she saw the fake expression on Nicole’s face. Anna kept silent.

Bryan turned to Anna awkwardly, then explained to Nicole, "Mrs. Hamilton, Anna is in a bad mood right now. She wants to rest.”

Nicole wiped away the tear in the corner of her eye and put on a pained smile. "I know Anna's temperament has always been like this. I'm used to it now.”

"Mom, Anna's personality is just a little more distant, that's all. Some things you should keep to yourself, alright? Don't annoy Anna." Chloe shot a cold glance at Anna, then glared at Bryan as if telling him to keep his distance from Anna.

Bryan did not bat an eye at her. He still held Anna's arm lovingly in his.

Chloe's gaze was vicious like a poisonous thorn.
