Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 96

"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!"

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."
