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

Chapter 203 Getting Bullied Again

Anna has been sitting in the living room with Grandmother Dawson and chatting.

Bryan stood nearby and wanted to walk over, but he felt as if his legs were weighed down and refused to move.

Bryan knew better than anyone else that the reason his engagement with Anna was canceled was partially because of her blindness.

He was a little caught off guard by Anna's miraculous recovery.

Previously in Anna's room, he almost...

He was nervous, he wondered whether Anna would bear a grudge and inform Grandmother Dawson about it.

At that moment, Nicole brought Chloe down from the room upstairs.

Nicole looked toward the living room and saw Anna and Grandmother Dawson who were smiling kindly. She then reminded Chloe softly, "Grandmother Dawson is very perceptive! Whatever plan you have must be foolproof, her image of you will be ruined if she spots any flaws."

"I don’t have much of an image to begin with, what's there to ruin?" Chloe raised her head slightly as she gently caressed her belly. "As much as she dislikes m e, she still wants the baby in my belly!”

Chloe walked downstairs and sat smilingly across Grandmother Dawson.

Grandmother Dawson raised her eye and glanced at Chloe before she continued laughing and chatting with Anna.

Anna also glanced at Chloe. Although Chloe was quietly accompanying them with a look of obedience, Anna knew that something was brewing in Chloe’s mind as her eyes were full of schemes.

It was not until dinner time when Chloe cried out as she held onto her belly and managed to draw the attention of everyone onto her.

"Chloe, what's wrong?” Nicole anxiously supported Chloe with her arm.

"Mommy, my belly hurts again! I don't know why but recently my belly keeps hurting.”

Grandmother Dawson was anxious as well, she was worried that something had happened to her greatgrandchild. "It's like that during the early stages of pregnancy, your belly will hurt often, it shouldn't be a problem!”

Grandmother Dawson continued, "But if it’s really painful then you should go to the hospital! It's the easiest for problems to occur during these first three months."

Chloe shook her head gently. "Don't worry, Grandma. It shouldn't be a big problem.”

“Two days ago, Bryan and I went to the hospital. The doctor said that my hormones are a little imbalanced s o he asked me to take a drug to prevent miscarriage. But... I didn't take it!”

"What? Hormonal imbalance? That’s a big problem! You have to take the drug the doctor told you to!” Grandmother Dawson was nervous as her voice suddenly rose.

"Grandma, certain drugs can be harmful. I don’t want t o take it as I'm worried that it'll hurt the baby." Chloe lowered her head and protected her belly tightly with her hands.

Grandmother Dawson was worried sick. "Then go to another hospital for a check-up! You have to take the drug if the doctors still recommend you take it!"

"Bryan, you must contact the hospital and ask for the best drug!"

"Yes Grandma, I'll contact them as soon as possible."

"Grandma, no matter how good the drug, it's still a drug!" The corner of Chloe’s eyes drooped as she put o n a pleading look.

“That’s true, then is there no other way?" Grandmother Dawson worriedly furrowed her eyebrows. "I'm looking forward to having great-grandchildren, you have to be careful, don't let anything happen to my great-grandchild!" "Grandma, this is my baby with Bryan, I'll protect the baby with my life if I have to!" exclaimed Chloe.

Anna quietly watched Chloe's performance. Now that the foundation has been set, Chloe should be going for her main motive now.

Anna did not know Chloe's intentions either!

Chloe looked at Grandmother Dawson and said gently, "Grandma, you must pray for my child's safety."

Grandmother Dawson quickly closed her eyes and said a prayer.

Chloe's eyes suddenly lit up. "Oh yes, Grandma, I heard from Mommy that if you carry emeralds that are blessed, they don't just protect you, they can even promote a baby's development and help with children’s prosperity!"

Chloe subtly glanced at Nicole. Nicole froze for a second before she quickly went along.

"Right, right! I had a lot of complications as well when I had Chloe. Then I heard from an elder in my family that emeralds can help with a baby's development. So I carried one with me and it seemingly worked!"

Anna did not know what snake oil they were peddling, but on second thought, she immediately understood and a smile slowly appeared on her lips.

"The Dawson family has a blessed emerald bracelet that was passed down for generations, it's really

beautiful! Moreover, the blessings on the bracelet were for the descendant’s prosperity and the family’s growth," said Amelia with some thought.

"However, this bracelet had been given to Ms. Anna during Grandma's birthday celebration."

Nicole suddenly figured out Chloe’s intentions of taking the bracelet.

Everyone else understood Chloe’s intentions as well and immediately quieted down.

Grandmother Dawson looked toward Chloe and felt even more disgusted.

Grandmother Dawson also knew the saying that emeralds could help with a baby's development, but now the bracelet...

Her gaze shifted toward Anna as she felt troubled.

Seeing that everyone was not talking anymore, Amelia smilingly said, "That bracelet is the Dawson family's heirloom. I won't mention the significance it has in the Dawson family, but it's also extremely valuable. It's just a shame that it no longer belongs to the Dawson family."

Amelia looked toward Anna and smiled deeply, she wanted to see how Anna would deal with this next.

"Ms. Anna, you’re no longer a part of the Dawson family, are you still intent on keeping our heirloom?" asked Amelia.

Anna smiled and said plainly, "I wanted to talk about this with Grandma as well. Since Chloe and Bryan are engaged, then it would seem inappropriate for me to hold onto the bracelet. It's time I return it to its rightful owner."

"Besides, Chloe's position in the Dawson family would be even more secured with the bracelet! Although they aren't married yet, Chloe is already the Dawson family’s granddaughter-in-law, so the bracelet should be given to her."

Anna smiled wholeheartedly which made Chloe uncomfortable.

"Anna, your understanding of important matters puts me to shame!" Grandmother Dawson liked Anna even more as her gaze radiated affection.

"From today onward, I'm your biological grandmother! I won't let you be harmed the slightest! I want to officially recognize you as my granddaughter!”

Nicole and Chloe's hearts leaped into their throats upon hearing those words.

If Grandmother Dawson recognized Anna as her granddaughter, then she would become a member of the Dawson family even if she was not born one!

Chloe clutched her hands tightly as her nails dug into her skin.

"Grandma, thank you so much! How would I be harmed under Grandma's protection! Besides, the bracelet should've been returned long ago!" Anna smiled as she snuggled against Grandmother Dawson Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

and shifted her gaze toward Chloe.

"Chloe, I'll give you the bracelet once we're back home."

"Good child, the Dawson family is really lucky to have you as a daughter," said Grandmother Dawson.

Chloe hated Anna so much that it hurt. So what? She was already the Dawsons' granddaughter-in- law; the bracelet belonged to her from the start. Anna was just returning the item to its rightful owner but she still earned Grandmother Dawson's praise!

Liam shut down his computer and took off his earphones. "That woman is being bullied again!"

Liam got up and left the Ackman Group headquarters.

"Sir, where are you going?" James hurriedly pursued him.

"Prepare the car, I'm going to the Dawson residence!"
