Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) -
Chapter 91 Losing Sight...
Nina scratched her head in confusion when she saw everyone's anxious expressions.
She sat down on Anna's bed and opened the bag she brought. The aroma of fried chicken diffused throughout the entire room.
"Ta-da! Your favorite fried chicken is here, Anna. I'll feed you.'
"Wow! Fried chicken!" Anna immediately started to drool. "It'd be perfect if there's a bottle of beer now."
Anna rubbed her hands together impatiently and opened her little mouth. She took a bite of the fried chicken that Nina was feeding her.
Just then, a soft cough sounded in the room.
Everyone turned to Liam to see that he was glaring disgruntledly at Anna, who was enjoying her fried chicken.
Nonetheless, Anna could not see his expression, so she continued to merrily bite into her chicken and sucked on her fingers from time to time.
Nina felt a shiver down her spine. "Uh... Mr. Ackman, would you like some?"
Liam glanced disgustedly at the oil-drenched fried chicken. 'How can she like this kind of junk food!
'Does she not know her eyes are still healing! She shouldn't be eating unhealthy deep-fried food!
'On top of that, she's even thinking about drinking beer!'
"Yeah," Liam replied nonchalantly.
Nina glanced at Anna, who was still enjoying her chicken. She awkwardly picked up the bag and carefully shuffled toward Liam, presenting him with the bag of fried chicken. Liam raised his brows at her. Frightened, Nina had no idea what kind of expression she should serve his gaze with. Alas, she could only blush and smile at him courteously. "Mr. Ackman, enjoy your meal."
Nina left the bag and quickly turned away, exhaling deeply and patting her chest.
Nina strongly believed that interacting with an iceberg like Liam could be the death of her.
Meanwhile, Anna continued to suck on her fingers incessantly. "Nina, you really are my adorable little angel! Quick, give me another piece!
"The hospital serves me clear soup every day. It's like torture!" Anna reached out her petite hand, waiting for another piece of fried chicken to bite into.
Nina smiled dryly. She turned her head to see Liam eating the fried chicken elegantly. She had no courage
to snatch food from a tiger.
Thus, she could only whimper, "Anna, there's no more. Mr. Ackman ate all of it."
"Give me one more. Just one." Anna was craving for more. The petite hand she reached out was grabbing impatiently at the air.
Nina glanced at Liam again, then continued to mumble, "There isn't any left. If you want it, you'll have to snatch it from Mr. Ackman's mouth."
Anna bashed her blanket angrily. "Heartless bastard! Even a piece of fried chicken you want to take away from me! Boohoo..."
Seeing Anna's adorable fit, Bryan could not help but smile.
Chloe had been paying close attention to Bryan all the while, She had long noticed that Bryan's gaze was fixed only on Anna-it was as if she was invisible. No one had batted an eye at her the entire time. Chloe clenched both her fists tightly.
Finally, they got through to seven in the evening. Dr. Moore and Micheal returned with a few specialists. It was already after office hours but none of them dared to leave. They gathered in Anna's room. Dr. Moore personally took off Anna's bandages. Everyone tensed up as he slowly unraveled the white bandages around her head.
Bryan thought that he could finally see Anna's beautiful eyes and that this whole incident would finally be over. At last, he could officially discuss their wedding date with Anna.
Chloe thought that when Anna finally regained her sight, all her efforts would be thrown out the window. She would return to her subpar status below Anna's and continue to be forced to endure Anna's attitude. Liam, on the other hand...
In truth, even Liam had no idea what he was thinking about. He merely stared at Anna, his gaze flickering.
Anna slowly opened her eyes. The doctor had adjusted the lights to their dimmest setting.
"Slowly open your eyes. Don't be nervous. Don't panic. You'll gradually adjust to the light," Dr. Moore instructed patiently.
Everyone held their breaths, staring unblinkingly at Anna's eyes.
They saw her long and luscious lashes twitching twice. At long last, she opened her beautiful glistening eyes...
Anna was not sure why, but when she opened her eyes, all she could see was black. Only after a while did the room gradually turn bright before her eyes. Perhaps her eyes needed some time to adjust after being shut for so long.
The first thing she saw was Liam sitting on the couch in front of her with his legs crossed elegantly. There was no expression on his charming face, yet a pair of impenetrable black eyes were staring straight at her.
Anna felt her heart sink. For a moment, she felt as if she had deciphered the meaning behind his gaze, yet she also felt like she could not understand a thing in those eyes.
His eyes were too deep for her to see through clearly.
Nonetheless, she was secretly happy to finally be able to see him.
Anna found out that even though Liam had been by her side every day, not being able to see him could also create a sense of longing in her heart.
She stared in Liam's direction, slowly falling into a daze.
Everyone followed her gaze and turned to Liam too. 1
All of them wondered why was Anna staring at Liam. Moreover, she had the kind of eyes that resembled the affectionate gaze of a woman who was deeply in love with a man. Bryan was getting a little displeased.
The corners of Chloe's lips curled up. She glanced at Bryan suggestively and flashed him a contemptuous smile. It seemed like Anna had the hots for Liam...
Bryan glared at Chloe furiously, making her grind her teeth in anger.
Of course, Bryan refused to believe that his fiancee would fall for another man. Anna was his woman!
"Anna!" Bryan called out disgruntledly. "I'm here!"
Anna was still staring at Liam, not moving a muscle.
She had fallen into a trance, only coming back to her sense when she heard Bryan calling out to her. Even so, she did not shift her gaze away.
She was afraid that Bryan and Chloe would become suspicious if she could not shift her gaze away completely.
While Anna was at a loss, Nina jumped in front of her and started waving her little hands in front of her eyes.
"Anna! Anna, can you see me? Why aren't you talking?"
Seeing Nina's adorable act and the dimples on her cheeks made Anna yearn to hug her. Even so, Anna maintained her posture, not moving an inch.
"Ms. Hamilton, how are you feeling? Are you experiencing any discomforts?" asked Dr. Moore.
Micheal joined in, "The redness and swelling in your eyes have completely subsided. Looks like you've healed well." 2
Liam grunted, "What do you mean 'looks like'? Did you even check?"
Micheal was getting annoyed too. "Doctors have their own method of diagnosis..."
"Don't tell me all that! Only lab results are definite!" Liam waved his hand impatiently and stood up. His exceedingly tall stature made him stand out among the crowd.
Anna lowered her eyelids. Her long lashes pointed downward. Her mind was in disarray, yet her face remained expressionless.
She slowly lifted her hands and felt her eyes, speaking in a soft tone, "Are the bandages off? Or are the lights off? Why is it so dark?"
Everyone was shocked. They stared wide-eyed at Anna.
"Nina, turn on the lights." Anna reached out her hands and searched blindly for Nina.
