Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 127

When Anna returned to her room, Lisa quickly brought her some ice to apply a cold compress on her red and swollen wrist.

"Ms. Anna, it’s not worth it if you get yourself hurt," Lisa murmured sorrowfully.

Anna did not reply. She endured the pain on her wrist and let her mind wander off.

Although her plan was a success, she had to suffer through almost just as much as the enemy.

She grabbed her phone and glanced at the voice recording from just now. Her lips curled up a little into a cold smile.

"It's all my fault for not keeping my eye on them. Madam instructed me to water the plants in the garden. If I was in the house, I never would have given Ms. Chloe the chance to spread oil on the floor."

"Lisa, that incident wasn't your fault."

Lisa gazed at Anna worriedly. "Ms. Anna, please be cautious at all times. You can't let your guard down."

Anna nodded. "I noticed something odd on the floor just now. I purposely fell the first time, but who would’ve thought Chloe would push me again."

"Ms. Anna, you know Ms. Chloe's line of thought well. She witnessed your defeat with her own eyes, yet Sir became more protective of you instead. How could she not hate you more?"

"I have underestimated her viciousness." Anna closed her eyes and sighed. "At the end of the day, I still don't want to think so badly of humanity."

"If Ms. Chloe has the heart to rob you of your vision, what won't she do? Ms. Anna, there’s no knowing what's in a person's heart. You must always be vigilant."

Exhausted, Anna lay on her pillow. She did not want t o say a word anymore.

Liam was right-she was too stupid. She fell for their traps again and again.

Just then, Nicole pushed open her bedroom door and came in. When she saw Lisa inside, she quickly put on a caring smile. "Anna, are you alright? Let me have a look at your injury. Is it bad?

"This is all my fault. I can't believe I forgot to wipe the floor. It's all my fault..."

"Mom, you don't have to blame yourself.” Anna put on a faint smile.

Nicole was truly an expert actress.

"Lisa, go wipe the floor. My sin would be exacerbated i f Anna were to fall again! I’ll help Anna apply some ointment."

Lisa glanced at Anna anxiously, then quietly left the room.

Nicole spoke softly as she carefully applied the ointment on Anna’s wrist.

"Now that your vision is bad, why can't you stay in your room quietly? Why did you go out? You will only cause more trouble for others."

Anna's chest tightened, yet maintained her faint smile. "I've troubled you, Mom."

"Naha, why would you say that? It’s no trouble at all. I’m just spreading some ointment. Unfortunately, you're the one that got hurt. Serious injuries like this take a long time to heal."

How could Anna not hear the mockery and ridicule in Nicole’s voice? She replied, "I may be the one that got hurt, but I still feel guilty for making you worry, Mom!"

"I think you should go check on Chloe instead. After getting slapped by Dad, I'm sure she’s boiling."

"Help me tell Chloe to simmer down. Being angry all the time isn't good for her body. Besides, we’re all family!"

Nicole glanced at Anna with eyes as sharp as thorns. She forced a faint smile onto her face. "Indeed. Chloe i s still young. She doesn't know any better. Sometimes, she does things without thinking and causes little incidents like this, evoking your father's wrath."
