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

Chapter 391. Don't Get Emotional

Arriving at the restaurant.

Nina was still distracted and sullen.

Anna pinched her cheeks, "Alright! Let's fill up our stomachs first."

Anna ordered a table full of dishes, "Let's celebrate today. We're all officially employed at Ackman Skyhigh Group."

Anna raised her glass, and Nina followed suit with a lack of interest.

All she wanted to do now was to go back to the hospital and find Michael.

To tell him that she regretted it.

She really wasn't in the mood to eat now, but seeing Anna's high spirits, she was too embarrassed to spoil the fun.

Anna took a sip of wine and put down her glass," Look! It’s more comfortable to go back to the old place. Familiar environment, familiar boss and familiar campus atmosphere were much better than those moralistic and hypocritical faces in the company."

"Especially the signature dish here. I really can't get enough of it. Nina, this steak is your favorite. Have

some more."

Anna kept trying to enliven the atmosphere, but the smile on Nina's face was still very far-fetched.

After eating two bites, Nina began to stare out of the window. Her forlorn look made Anna's heartache.

"Nina, let's talk after we've eaten enough, shall we?"

Anna poured another glass of wine for Nina.

Nina followed suit and took two sips.

Anna was usually good at drinking, but probably because she had something on her mind today, her cheeks started to flush after two glasses of beer.

"Anna, I really want to go and talk to Michael right now!" Nina stood up anxiously.

Anna tugged her back, thinking for a long time, but did not say anything.

"Nina, can you finish eating with me first?"

Nina had no choice but to sit down again.

Outside the window, the sky was getting dark.

The streets were lit up with streetlights, appearing even dimmer in the evening when the sun was setting.

Anna lifted her glass and took two more sips, not really knowing how to speak.

Nina could also see that Anna had something to say to her.

"Anna, do you have something on your mind?"

Anna opened her mouth for a long time but still didn't say anything.

That kind of thing was really unspeakable.

She was worried that Nina wouldn't be able to accept i t and would be irritated.

"Anna, I'm fine. Don't worry. I know it's all because of my fault for hurting Michael. Such an outcome is something I have to bear."

"I know now that I was wrong and I'm going to make u p for that mistake. So, I'm going to contact Michael as soon as possible and tell him I regret it."

"I'm willing to face his mother with him and to meet all the difficulties we should endure together."

"I won't back down or be afraid anymore! And I have nothing to be ashamed of! As long as I love him and he loves me, we can surely overcome all difficulties."

Nina said, with more of a smile on her face.

She picked up her mobile phone and was about to call Michael.

Anna hurriedly stopped Nina.

"Nina, don't call! Don't say that! Don't make up with him!"

"Why, Anna? Haven't you always supported us? It is you that match-made us."

Nina looked at Anna in surprise and confusion.

Anna slowly closed her eyes and finally made up her mind to tell Nina everything.

"Nina... you shouldn't keep blaming yourself or feeling guilty. It's not your fault."

Nina was a little confused, "What does that mean?"

"Don't turn into a freakin' ghost. You are the original innocent, positive and fearless Nina."

"Anna, are you hiding something from me?" Nina's expression changed and she stared at Anna without blinking.

Anna took another sip of wine, "Nina, be prepared for what I'm going to say next."

After hearing these words, Nina froze and asked dumbfoundedly.

"Anna, why do you suddenly become so serious? It makes me panicky and inexplicably nervous."

Anna pursed her lips and slowly spoke, "Nina, actually, even without Dr. Hart's mother's opposition, i t would be impossible for you and Dr. He to be together."

"Why?"

Nina's eyes widened in disbelief, "Is it because of Amelia? Is it because my status is not good enough for him? Or is it because he doesn't really love me at all?"

"No, Nina. It's not for those reasons." "Then what is it?"

"Because..." Anna's eyes were red as she looked at Nina. She finally decided to be ruthless and tell the truth.

"You and Dr. Hart are cousins!"

"What!!!"

Nina's eyes widened in shock. After a long while, she suddenly laughed out.

" Anna, don't tease me. I was very unhappy that Michael and I broke up, but you don't have to make up such a story to comfort me, right? Besides, that's not a very good excuse for comfort. It's not even funny."

"If we were really cousins, why didn't my mother tell m e? When she was sober, she wanted me to be with him!"

" If we were cousins, my mother would know!"

Anna looked at her steadily, "Because you and Dr. Hart don't have the same mother or father, but you are related to him."

"I don't think Aunt knows that either. He's your brother, your cousin."

"What the hell is this? I'm so confused!" Nina was disoriented for a moment, looking at Anna dumbfoundedly.

"Anna, you must be lying to me. What cousin? I don't understand what you're saying at all!"

"To put it simply, Dr. Hart's mother is, actually, your aunt."

Nina's eyes opened wide.

She remembered that Michael's mother's surname was also "Scott".

It was indeed the same surname as hers.

Nina still could not believe it.

"It's impossible! Anna, you must be lying to me! You're making this up to comfort me! How can we be cousins! This is ridiculous!"

"And his mother can't be my aunt! I don't even know where my blood relative is... How could it be such a coincidence!"

Anna sighed, "I don't believe it's true either, but it is."

"No, it can't be. It's not true..." Nina was so shocked that her face turned pale, and she couldn't stop shaking her head and backing away.

"Nina, listen to me! What I said is all true! Calm down! Don't get so emotional, okay?"

Anna tugged at Nina.

"How do you know all these things? The blood relative I've been looking for for so long is right here with me..." "Why would you know this before me?" Nina still

couldn't stop shaking her head.

" Liam investigated your birth, and that's how these things were pulled out. Otherwise, how would I know!"

"He investigated me?" Nina stiffly opened her mouth," No wonder he didn't agree with us being together from the beginning."

"Does that mean that... he knew about it a long time ago?" Nina's eyes filled with a layer of watery mist.

" Dr. Hart's mother is my aunt? How could this happen H

Anna gripped Nina's hand with heartache.

"Nina, here's the thing..."Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
