Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 283

Melissa's emotions were out of control again.

Dr. Hart hurriedly ordered the nurses to push her down on the table then they injected her with a tranquilizer.

Melissa grew quiet, leaned on Nina’s chest, and fell asleep.

Dr. Hart immediately seized the chance and arranged for some examinations to be done.

"Anna, my mom is like this. When she's sick, she’ll say anything! She even said she wanted to kill me..." Nina bowed her head, tears gathering in the corners of her eyes.

"Nina, I won’t take this against her! I just felt like she mistook me for someone else."

“She's not conscious anymore. She doesn't even know what she said or what she did. She's in a blur most of the time," Nina sighed.

"Don't worry too much, we'll look at the results and see." Anna patted Nina's shoulder comfortingly.

In the VIP ward.

Melissa lay on the bed quietly with countless machines on her body. Her breathing was stable as she had an expression of calm peace while she slept.

Nina sat at her bedside and stared at her listlessly. Pain and guilt swam through her eyes.

"It’s all my fault. If I could earn more money, I wouldn't have to wait until Mom’s sickness was so bad before bringing her to the hospital."

"Nina, don't blame yourself, you tried your best.

Illnesses like this can only be controlled, Dr. Hart said it's not easy for the illness to be suppressed to this level, you did a great job already.

Dr. Hart said you did well in treating her with traditional medicine. Even though the effects are slow, but there are not many side effects. You did great."

"I still hate myself, for being so useless! I can't reduce her pain! I tried so hard for so long, my only dream is for my mother to recover, even if it's just to reduce the frequency with which the illness occurs." Nina buried her face in her hands and started sobbing.

Dr. Hart stood at the entrance to the ward and looked a t her thin, sallow figure. His heart ached.

Since she walked around with smiles on her face, he thought she came from a happy, loving family. A child that grew up with all the love and protection of her parents.

Apparently, it was not so. Behind her smile, she was hiding such a painful family history.

"The patient will remain asleep for a while. I have some questions, we can talk in my office." Dr. Hart turned and walked out of the ward.

Nina stood up hastily and followed Dr. Hart into his office.

"Dr. Hart!"

He looked at Nina, this girl who used to have two cute dimples when she smiled, had lost her bright energy and cheerful air, now all that remained was endless pain and suffering.

"My mother's situation?" Nina looked at him, eyes full of worry.

"We'll talk about why she lost control of her emotions, i n other words, the cause of her disease." Dr. Hart asked quietly.

Nina hesitated for a few seconds, then answered softly, "Actually, I don’t know much about Mom's illness either. As far as I can recall, she has always been different, but her condition seemed to deteriorate as time went by, until now."

"A few years ago, my mom was fine! She could work and earn money to pay for my tuition. She took care of me in every way possible, the two of us only had each other."

"But then... I gradually realized, my mom would stay in her room alone. It was as if she were lost in a daze, and she would throw tantrums all of a sudden, and have bad dreams..."

"Then, she started losing focus, like she had fallen into a trance, often muttering something inexplicable under her breath."

"Even though I can't tell what's real and what's not, I only thought she was stressed... from life in general... until one day..."
