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

Chapter 175 I Agree

"Hahaha..."

Anna and Jamie were in the stairwell of the shopping center. They laughed until they were out of breath.

"Jamie, how did you think of that? You even called him hubby! Hahaha... I'm gonna die laughing..."

"I bet that relieved your anger! This is nothing! I've only used ten percent of my powers. But seeing my Little Annie laughing so cheerfully, I truly regret not giving that scum a few slaps too."

Jamie massaged his wrist. "But he is quite a big and tall man. I was afraid I couldn't beat him in a fight. But slapping that b*tch is already quite satisfying!"

"Hahaha... that’s true. Jamie, you’re the strongest and boldest person I know!” Anna could not help but show him a big thumbs up.

Anna laughed and laughed, then suddenly stopped and gazed at Jamie with a serious expression.

"Thank you."

Jamie was taken aback. He watched as mist slowly gathered in Anna's eyes. He gently tapped her forehead and rolled his eyes at her.

"Little dummy, why are you thanking me so much today!"

"No... no reason...”

Anna did not wish to tell him that the true cause of her sorrow was Liam, not Bryan. Seeing Jamie's hard work did not sit well in her heart.

"Come on, we'll go get some good food! Your treat!” Jamie held Anna's arm.

"Let's go!”

"We have to ask Nina out too! She will definitely be thrilled to hear about our victory today!” Jamie called Nina's mobile excitedly and asked her to join them for a small gathering. However, Nina rejected the invite.

"What have you been so busy with lately? You don't have any work or classes today, so why would you still have no time to leave the house?" Jamie growled into the phone.

"Ah... Well, hehe..."

Nina stammered over the phone for a while, then replied, "I need to revise! I've been falling behind on m y homework because of my job recently. I need to make it up so I’m hanging up now. You two enjoy it!”

Having said that, Nina quickly hung up.

Jamie glances at Anna, who also had a perplexed expression on her face.

"I haven't seen her for several days,” Anna pointed out.

“Could something have happened to her?" Jamie frowned.

"Probably not! She sounds fine over the phone whenever I call her. Perhaps she really is busy with homework.”

"Mom...

"Mom... Please don’t be like this..."

Nina wailed as she pounced onto Melissa Baker, who was lying on the bed, screaming and squirming. Nina hugged her tightly.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"Ah!

"Let go of me!" Melissa hissed. A glistening teardrop gathered in the corner of her eyes.

"Let me die! Let me die..."

"Mom... Don't be like this... Give me the pills..." Nina cried as she snatched away the pills which Melissa held firmly in her palm.

She pressed Melissa hard on the bed and grabbed the ropes at the edges of the bed, tying Melissa's hands to the top of the bed.

After Nina secured one of her hands, her other hand swung toward Nina and slapped her hard.

"Let go of me!" Melissa yelled in a hoarse voice. Her eyes were bloodshot as if she wanted to murder Nina.

Nina was in no mood to be bothered about the burning pain on her cheek. Tears trickled down from the

corner of her eyes. "Mom... Can you please calm down?

"You still have me. Please don't do something so stupid If

Her words did not get through to Melissa at all.

Melissa held up her fist and pummeled her head. “Let me die! Let me die...”

"Mom! Mom! Mom..."

Nina wailed as she held down Melissa’s hand and quickly tied it to the bed, stopping her from further self -abuse.

Nina stood aside and gazed at Melissa, who was struggling and screaming miserably. Tears streamed down her face.

Melissa’s wrists were already bleeding from her struggle against the ropes, yet she continued to struggle and raged, "Nina Scott, let me go! I never should've given birth to you! You're a bringer of bad luck!"

Nina's eyes overflowed with sorrow. "Mom, I'm just trying to help you... You can't keep hurting yourself...

"I'll bring your medicine for you. You'll feel better after a nap."

Nina brought Melissa her pills, yet she shut her mouth tightly and refused to eat them.

"Give me poison! I only want poison! I want to die!" "Mom... I'm begging you... What will happen to me if you die... Can you please take your medicine? You’ve simply fallen ill. You can be cured..."

"I don't want it! Scram, you cursed child! Scram!"

"Mom... listen to me. Take your medicine...” Nina wiped away her streaming tears.

"In your dreams! I'll never eat anything you give me. You want to kill me and my child! Oh, my poor child... Waa..."

Melissa yelled and started crying.

Nina sighed and placed the pills aside. She hugged her mother and soothed her mother's violently heaving chest. Her voice was soft and gentle.

"Mom, no one killed me. Look at me. I'm your precious Nina. I’m here, right by your side."

"You're not my Nina. Nina is just a small child. Her soft body fits snuggly in my arms."

Melissa scanned her surroundings, then suddenly started panicking. She screamed, "Nina, Nina... where are you? Don't scare your mother. Come out. Mommy i s here. Mommy misses you. Quick, come out!"

She darted her eyes toward Nina and roared, "You bastard! Where did you hide my precious Nina? I hate you! I hate all of you! I hope all members of the Scott family die horrible deaths! Haha..."

"Mom, I'm right here. Don't think about those things anymore. It's all in the past... You have me now. I won’t let you get hurt anymore...”

Nina hugged Melissa tightly. More tears poured out from her eyes.

Perhaps her struggling had tired her out-Melissa's emotions gradually calmed down. Exhausted, she fell asleep.

Nina grabbed a towel and gently wiped away the sweat covering her forehead. "Mom, I will work hard t o make money and take you to the best doctor.

"I will surely cure your illness."

She took out her phone and clicked into her messages. She sent out a two-word reply.

[I agree.]

Anna returned home in a pleasant mood.

The moment she entered the house, she saw Chloe sitting on the sofa. Nicole was carefully rubbing a hard -boiled egg on Chloe’s face with a pained expression. Her lips were constantly grumbling complaints to Daniel.

"Danny, look at how swollen Chloe's face is. How could Anna be so heartless!"

Daniel yelled at Anna, who had just come in. "Anna, get over here! Apologize to your sister!"

Anna was perplexed.

'What's happening this time?'

"Why do I have to apologize to her?" Anna furrowed herbrows.

Lisa quickly scurried over to guide Anna. She subtly dropped a hint for Anna as she gently grabbed her arm and whispered to her.

"Ms. Chloe claimed that you hit her."

Anna's brows knitted even more tightly together.

Chloe wanted to hold her accountable for Jamie's actions.

"Anna, I know that you have grievances about that incident, but you still can't hit your sister in public like that! Can't you use your words?" Daniel scolded.

"I hit her?" Anna had a confused expression on her face. "When did I hit Chloe? How come I don't know about it?"

Daniel turned to Chloe and asked in a deep voice," Chloe, are you sure it was Anna who hit you?"

"Daddy, why would I lie about something like this?" Suddenly, Chloe put her hands to her belly. "Mommy, my stomach hurts..."

Nicole’s face turned ashen in an instant. She hugged Chloe. "Could it have been triggered by the shock of getting hit!"

Anna's heart thumped. Chloe was trying to end her with her acting!
