Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 118

Grandmother Dawson furrowed her brows when she saw Anna’s solemn expression.

"Anna, what is it that’s so important? Is there some problem between you and Bryan?" Grandmother Dawson was sharp enough to notice something was off.

Anna's eyebrows twitched. There had been problems for a long time. Even so, they had to maintain a superficial relationship due to their family situations.

"Grandma..." Anna's voice quavered the moment she opened her mouth.

She had never wanted the situation to develop to this stage. In the end, she still felt melancholic that things could not remain as they were. She might not have been the happiest, but she could have lived the plain and ordinary life she had always loved.

She had a fiance who pampered her and a little sister who always followed her around despite playing little tricks on her occasionally.

Nonetheless, the truth had to get out. The ugly scene revealed from behind the curtains made Anna shudder.

It made her pessimistic. She began to question everything, wondering what was true and what was not.

Anna sighed helplessly. "Grandma, let’s put aside my marriage with Bryan for now.”

Anna's words shocked everyone in the room.

What? Did Anna just say she wanted to delay the wedding?

They heard that correctly, right?

Chloe and Nicole did not know what Anna was thinking. Nonetheless, they were delighted to hear that.

"What? Why?" Grandmother Dawson was awfully perturbed. "You have been engaged to Bryan for so long. And you are graduating soon. We should've been discussing your wedding a long time ago."

"Anna, tell me, is it because Bryan did something wrong? Did he upset you? Or is it..." Grandmother Dawson turned to Chloe. She had always felt like the brat was overly fervent toward Bryan. She had been suspicious about some things for a long time already.

Grandmother Dawson thought about the time when Chloe and Nicole orchestrated the scandal between Anna and Byan Sanchez. She feared that their reason for doing so was not as simple as trying to frame Anna.

Grandmother Dawson did not need a thorough investigation to guess what kind of ulterior motives those two were harboring.

Chloe felt distressed by Anna and Grandmother

Dawson's gazes. She shifted around uneasily. The smile on her face looked forced and stiff. Her palms were covered in sweat.

She was scared out of her wits. She feared that Anna would reveal everything right then and there.

Some things were not meant to be revealed yet; if they were, it would surely consign her to eternal damnation.

Chloe was terrified. She turned to Nicole for help, but Nicole shook her head slowly, hinting at her to endure it for now.

Anna could clearly see the fear in Chloe's eyes. Turned out that she knew what fear was too!

Haha!

She yearned to expose all of Chloe's secrets right then and there, giving her no place to hide.

Nonetheless, she must not be rash!

The Lincoln Group was not in her hands yet-she needed to hold on to the pillar of support that was Grandmother Dawson.

Anna took a deep breath and slowly opened her mouth. "Grandma, Bryan isn’t the problem; it's me."

Grandmother Dawson's expression darkened. "Anna, tell me honestly, what happened exactly!"

Amelia scoffed. Her ear-piercing voice shot into the air. "What? Ms. Hamilton, do you think the Dawson family isn’t good enough for you? Or are you saying you had a change of heart?" "Of course not!" Anna quickly defended herself." Grandma, my feelings toward Bryan have never changed. I just feel sorry for Bryan. Look at my current state. I don’t deserve him."

Anna hung her head low and wiped away the tear in the corner of her eye.

"Anna, don't think like that! I like you for who you are, not for your eyes! Besides, you’ll recover your vision soon! It's only temporary," Grandmother Dawson assured as she gazed at Anna woefully.

She lifted her wrinkled hands and held Anna's daint face in them. She wiped away the tear in the corners o f Anna’s eyes.

"Grandma, your words only make me feel worse. I know that you’ve always liked me, but I... Grandma, can we please delay my marriage with Bryan for now?"

"Anna..."

"Grandma!" Anna tried her best to force a faint smile onto her face.

In a soft voice, she said, "Besides, I hope that I can see with my own eyes the moment Bryan puts the wedding ring on my finger. I wish to witness with my own eyes, the happiness I am about to share with Bryan. I hope that you can let me fulfill this dream of mine, Grandma.”

Grandmother Dawson's gaze softened. She sighed

quietly.

At the moment, rumors about the family had been giving her headaches. Anna’s wedding with Bryan could serve another purpose of dispelling the rumors about Liam having his eyes on Bryan.

At the same time, she was worried that Anna would stay blind forever. In that case, she would not be able t o take over the Lincoln Group and the main purpose of this arranged marriage would not be fulfilled.
