Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 176

Chloe held her stomach painfully.

"Mom... What now? Will the baby be okay? My stomach hurts so much..."

Nicole hugged Chloe tightly. Her voice was quivering with fear. "Danny, do you see how much Chloe's stomach is hurting... What should we do? Let's... Let's call the doctor."

Daniel was also frightened. He hurriedly called their family doctor, yet Chloe stopped him.

"Daddy, don’t call the family doctor... If the doctor knows about my condition, it'll shock the Dawson family and worry Grandma Dawson. I would be committing a terrible sin if she falls ill again."

Chloe gazed at Daniel with a pained expression, yet at the same time, she put on a thoughtful and compassionate look. "If Grandma thinks that Daddy and Mommy didn’t take good care of me... she'll get mad at Daddy!

"I’ll be fine after some rest."

Daniel gazed at Chloe. She appeared to be in so much pain, yet she still thought about what was best for him. He felt gratified.

Although Grandmother Dawson had agreed to let Chloe marry into the family, she only did so because o f the baby in her. In fact, she was very dissatisfied with Daniel's failure to keep Chloe under control, resulting in her robbing Anna of her position.

If something were to happen to the child in Chloe’s womb, Grandmother Dawson would grow hostile toward him.

"Chloe, are you sure you'll be fine after some rest? Do you really not need a doctor?” Daniel went up to her and held her worriedly. "Lie down for a bit. Maid! Pour her a glass of warm water."

Chloe seemed to be feeling better after lying down. The pained expression on her face was slightly relieved. Even so, she still gazed sorrowfully at Anna.

"Anna, I know that you're mad about me and Bryan going shopping together... I know I've wronged you...

"But I’m pregnant with a child... How could you hit me i n front of so many people? Waa...

"You even said I was the youngest daughter of this family and was not good enough for the Dawson family..."

Chloe covered her face as she cried, putting on a wretched act.

"Chloe, Anna said that about you?" Nicole's eyes turned red too. She hugged Chloe tightly.

Chloe nodded. "She even... She even said that the two o f us only have our eyes on the Hamilton family's wealth... She said we... Waa... She said that we were bottom feeders in the family but still did not know our place... and made vain attempts to climb the social ladder...

"Daddy, you have to stand up for me! I just refuted a little and she... She hit me... and called me a shameless bastard...

"Waa..."

Chloe wailed with her hands covering her face.

“There, there, Chloe, don't cry. It's not good for the baby ..." Nicole comforted Chloe as she wiped her own tears away sorrowfully.

"Anna, I've been treating you so well all these years. I've been more meticulous with you than I was with Chloe... Even if you think I have not helped you in any way, I still worked hard to raise you... How could you say... How could you say that Chloe and I..."

She wiped the corner of her eyes as she spoke. From her peripheral vision, she saw that Daniel was more and more furious. She continued.

"Chloe is still young. As her elder sister, it's expected o f you to teach her a lesson if she has done something wrong to you, but... you hit her so hard and said such horrible things... How can the two of us live on like this?

"Even if you didn’t consider that, you still should have considered the fact that a living being is residing within her womb right now... Are you trying to end its life?"

Anna watched the mother-daughter duo's performance silently. She could not help but applaud their ever-improving acting skills.

She turned to Chloe, who was bawling her eyes out in a pitiable state. Chloe wanted to push her grudge with Jamie onto Anna.
