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

Chapter 125 Why Must You Treat Me Like This "Ah..."

Anna yelped as she fell backward toward the stairs.

Chloe's lips curled up as she smirked delightedly.

As long as Anna rolled down the stairs, she would be covered in cuts and bruises. She could break her leg, disfigure her face or even get brain damage-all of which would lead to the crumbling of Anna's marriage with Bryan.

As those thoughts ran through Chloe’s mind, the grin o n her face grew wider and the shine in her eyes turned even brighter.

She crossed her arms as she watched Anna fall backward. Her eyes were full of madness.

'Anna Hamilton, as long as you’re crippled by this fall, I'll take good care of you from today onwards. We're still sisters after all.'

Unexpectedly, Anna only fell two steps down the stairs before grabbing onto the railing of the stairs.

Chloe's eyes shot wide open. She stared displeased at Anna, who was hanging onto the railing. She yearned t o rush up to her, pluck her hands off those railings and push her down the stairs.

Anna's face scrunched up in pain. She hugged the railing tightly, strenuously supporting the weight of her aching body as she sat on the stairs.

"Anna! Anna..." Chloe darted toward her, pretending to be worried. "Anna, are you alright?"

"Isn't this what you wanted?" Anna uttered coldly as she glared in Chloe's direction. There was not a hint of warmth in her voice.

Chloe staggered. She stood on the stairs and looked down on Anna from high above. She spoke in a casual and absent-minded tone.

"Haha, what are you saying, Anna? Let me help you u p. The floor is cold.

"Where are you hurt? Is it painful?"

Chloe tugged at Anna, yet she was unwilling to let go o f the railings.

"I don't need your fake concern!"

If it were not for Chloe, she never would have fallen down the stairs.

Anna's heart shuddered. She held on even tighter to the railing, afraid that Chloe was unsatisfied and wanted to take the chance to push her down again.

The corner of Chloe's lips twitched a little. She said in an earnest tone, "Anna, what kind of attitude is that? I was just trying to help you up just now. Who would've thought you’d push me away and end up falling yourself...

"Anna, now that you've lost your vision, you have to be more cooperative! You're fortunate to not have rolled down the stairs. Otherwise, your eyes won't be the only thing that’s broken. If you break a limb, will the Dawson family still want you?"

"Ha! You're right, Chloe. I really ought to be more cautious. Otherwise, I might fall into a scoundrel’s trap and die in ways I can’t even imagine."

"Anna, what are you saying? You sound like you're referring to someone specific. I was only concerned about you."

Chloe shot a menacing glare at Anna. "Hurry up and stand already. If Daddy sees this, he'll blame me for not taking good care of you again."

Chloe took Anna's arm again but Anna still refused to stand up. Chloe was growing impatient. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Are you deliberately not standing up so that Daddy can see this? Are you gonna cry in front of him and complain about me again?"

Anna scoffed. "You really are concerned about me, Chloe. I'm afraid that you might even be clearer as to how my eyes became like this in the first place!"

Chloe's panic was evident on her face. She quickly rebutted, "Anna, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you please! How would I know how you ended up like that!"

Anna gazed at Chloe. Her voice abruptly turned sorrowful. "Chloe, there's just the two of us here. Please tell me honestly-did you do something to my eye drops?" "Anna, stop talking nonsense!"

"Chloe... What is it that you want? Just tell me. I’ll give i t to you, no matter what it is... Why must you treat me like this?

"I'm already blind, my wedding with Bryan has been postponed and I can't even take over the company anymore. I’ve lost everything. Waa..." Anna started to wail miserably.

"Chloe, I’ve always seen you as my real sister. Why must you treat me like this? Why..." Anna grabbed the hem of Chloe’s skirt and shed countless tears.

Seeing Anna crying at her feet, a splendid smile slowly blossomed on Chloe’s face.

She had dreamt of this scene for so many nights, waiting for the day Anna would kneel at her feet and wail.

Chloe crossed her arms in front of her chest and held her head high.

At that moment, she looked like a proud victor, looking down snobbishly at the loser.

"Your real sister? Ms. Hamilton, when have you ever seen me as your real sister? I've always been like your attendant, your maid, even! You have never seen me a s your real sister!" Chloe's voice turned high-pitched with her stirred-up emotions.

"Why must you treat me like this? Why? What is it that you want? Tell me and I'll give it all to you..." Anna was still crying. Her tears fell droplet by droplet.

"Why? I don't know why either! So what, if it was me? S o what, if it wasn't? You're already blind, yet you still cling onto Bryan unapologetically!" Chloe got more and more enraged as she talked. Her chest heaved heavily.

"I love Bryan, and he loves me too! The love between u s is true, so how can I let go of him so easily!" Anna clutched onto Chloe's skirt even tighter. Her hand trembled.

"Haha... What a joke! Bryan loves you? Anna Hamilton, where did you get all this self-confidence? From being the eldest daughter of the Hamilton family?” Chloe scoffed contemptuously as she stared down at the woman crawling on the steps with disdain.

"Chloe, what do you mean by that? Bryan loves me for me, not for my status!"

"Anna, stop pretending already! Let me tell you, the person Bryan truly loves is me!"

Chloe pointed at herself frantically.

She continued, "The two of us had long planned our future in private. Once he takes over the Dawson family, we can both be together openly and honestly.

"I admire you, Anna. Didn’t you find out about this a long time ago? Yet you're able to hang around Bryan and pretend as if nothing was going on. I don't know if I should praise you for having so much restraint or insult you for having so little self-worth. I can't believe you can tolerate your own fiance cheating on you!"

Chloe had long hoped for Anna to fall out with Bryan over this. Contrary to that, Anna had kept quiet all that while, stagnating Chloe's progress.

Even till that day, their marriage had not been canceled and Chloe still remained a hidden mistress.

"Why must Bryan marry you! Why can't he marry me!" Chloe screamed and clenched her teeth in rage.

"Chloe, did you forget? I'm a Hamilton; you’re not," Anna raised her chin and uttered slowly. She kept aiming her blows at Chloe's heart.

"So what, if you’re a Hamilton? You're blind now! I don’t believe the people of Lincoln Group will allow a blind successor to take over, and I don’t believe the Dawson family will agree to have a blind in-law!”

"No matter what happens, Grandpa's company will eventually fall into my hands. As for my marriage with Bryan, Grandmother Dawson had already agreed t o it, so you have no right to be screaming here and ignoring everyone else's decisions!" Anna chastised.

Chloe's flames of fury burnt bright. "Even if I have no such rights, what gives a blind woman, who can’t even walk without falling down, any more rights than me?"

Chloe scoffed disdainfully.

She continued, "Anna Hamilton, stop dreaming already. Bryan will never marry you! If I were you, I would have wisely broken off the engagement instead of postponing the stupid wedding! I can't

believe you were bold enough to say those words. You really are shameless! Don’t you know the Dawson family has no intentions of taking you in!

"How unfortunate it would be for a prestigious family like the Dawson's to have a blind in-law!"

Anna could clearly see the mockery in Chloe's eyes. She chuckled and said, "Chloe, even if I do break off the engagement, do you think the Dawson family will want you as their in-law?"

Hearing that made Chloe exasperated. She scoffed and replied, "What is there to not like about me? I am much more fun and passionate than you! Look at yourself right now! What do you have besides a pretty face?”

"Ah, so you're fun. Is that your only value in Bryan's eyes?"

Chloe shrugged nonchalantly. "I am a woman-as long as I can win men over in this aspect, I can triumph over any woman with power or wealth."

She slowly squatted down and whispered, "I am also a daughter of the Hamilton family. Anything that you can do, I can too. On top of that, I can do it much better than you."

Anna suddenly lost her cool. She screamed, "Chloe, how have I wronged you? Why must you steal Byran away from me? Why must you rob me of the man I

love?"

Chloe replied scornfully, “You parade around your status as the eldest daughter of the Hamilton family, acting all high and mighty in front of me. You have all the spotlight of the family and everyone treats you like a princess. How does it feel to plummet to the very bottom? You’re a b*tch that deserves to be blind!"

"Chloe, how could you say that? I've always seen you a s my real sister. Why would you say all that..."

Anna grasped at Chloe's skirt. Meanwhile, her other hand subtly slipped into her pocket and stopped recording on her phone.

"Chloe, I’m heartbroken. How could you treat me like this... Waa..."

"Anna Hamilton, let go of me!" Chloe hastily grabbed Anna's hand. She was standing on the stairs in high heels. With Anna tugging her like that, she could lose her balance and fall at any moment.

Chloe was at the end of her patience. She smacked Anna's hand away. "There's no need to sit here and cry! No one will take pity on you!"

Just then, a loud and menacing voice was heard.

"Chloe, what are you doing?”

Chloe felt a chill down her spine. She felt cold as if she had fallen into an icy pit.

Anna yelped. Luckily, she held onto the railing in time to save herself from rolling down the stairs. She

quivered in fear, sobbing.

"Chloe... I'm your sister, Chloe. Why must you treat me like this? Why..."

Daniel darted over and held his shivering daughter in his arms.

"Anna, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?" Daniel asked in a concerned and distressed tone.

Anna’s tear-stained face made her appear especially helpless and anguished. She shook her head gently." Waa... Dad, I-I-I'm fine..."

Anna dove into Daniel's embrace and hugged him tightly. She choked up as she cried, making Daniel's heart ache.

"Chloe Hamilton, what did you do to your sister?"

Daniel growled furiously.
