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

"I know that you love Michael very much. Since you love each other deeply, why do you separate because of misunderstanding?"

Tania looked at Nina with tears in her eyes.

Nina took a step back in shock, "What are you saying? Impossible!"

"You are no blood relations at all... Maybe I misheard. But that's what I heard at that time. If you don't believe me, you can ask him about it."

"Michael was worried that if the news that he wasn't the biological child of the Hart family was exposed, it would affect Dean Hart's reputation... That's why he didn't dare to mention it. He could only separate from you and hide his secret..."

Tania choked while saying, "Actually, I really love Michael. I really don't want to be separated from him... Am I stupid? If I pretend that I don't know, could I be with him?"

Tania's eyes were red from crying, "But if I don't tell you about it, I would be really sad. I think I've done something really bad..."

"I don't want Michael to hate me... I don't want you to hate me either. I sincerely regard you as my best

friend..."

Tania sniffed hard.

"Although I know that when I tell you about it, I won't be able to be with Michael. But after I said it, I felt a lot more relaxed..."

"Why do you tell me about it all of a sudden?" Nina froze. Her face was very pale.

"Because I want fair play between us... Even if Michael and I can't be together, I want him to get married because of love."

"I don't want us to regret... I also don't want more people to get hurt. I can feel that he really cares about you... What should I do? Am I stupid? Why do I tell you about it..."

"I don't think he's happy when he's with me!"

"But I really love him... I really don't want to part with him..."

Tania kept wiping her tears, "But if I don't tell you, I would feel very sorry for you. I really don't want... Every time I see you two meet, I feel sad to see you hide your heart-brokenness and I am upset to see Michael disguise himself deliberately."

"I'm really not sure..."

Nina trembled. She stretched out her hands and held Tania's shoulders tightly, "Is everything you said true?"

Tania nodded, "I think that probably he regards me as your shadow... I don't want to be your shadow. I want my future husband to only love me..."

"I really wish I had another chance to compete with you, but..."

Tania cried more sadly.

"But I know... I don't have any chance at all."

"Okay. Goodbye, Nina. I want you to be happy!"

"If you are happy, what I did would be meaningful!" After saying that, Tania couldn't control herself and cried louder. Then she turned around and ran away. Nina was still in shock.

After a long time, she still couldn't come back to her senses.

She walked back to the front hall with heavy steps. Seeing Michael sit alone in his seat, she couldn't make a sound for a long time with her mouth open. "Nina?" Michael turned back. Seeing Nina's pale face, he was nervous.

"What's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?"

Nina finally opened her mouth. She didn't expect her voice to be so hoarse and low, "Why do you hide it from me?"

Michael froze, "I...I don't know what you're talking about." "Why? Why do you hide the truth from me?" Nina yelled hysterically.

Michael blinked. He slowly lowered his thick eyelashes to cover the struggle in his eyes and said softly, "What are you talking about?" "Do you really not know that? Or do you pretend not to know that?"

"I really don't know."

Nina suddenly reddened her eyes. She was so aggrieved that she shouted loudly.

"Do you still refuse to admit it?"

"Nina..."

Nina's tears ran down her face, "Why don't you tell me that we are not blood relations? Do you know how painful I've tried to forget you all these years? Why are you so cruel? Why do you keep lying to me?"

"How did you know that?" Michael was in shock suddenly.

Nina really wanted to give him a slap now, "You're so cruel!" "I'm sorry, Nina..."

"Don't say sorry to me!"

"Nina, even if we are not related by blood, we can't be together." Michael's voice was low.

"What?" Nina went blank for a moment.

"I'm sorry! Even if you know the truth, I won't change my choice." Michael clenched his own fist slowly and held back the pain in his heart.

He had promised his mother.

It couldn't be changed!

He didn't want his parents to be sad.

"You..."

Nina felt that her last hope was gone instantly.

Looking at the man she loved so much in front of her, she trembled violently. She suddenly cried, turned around, and ran away.

"I don't want to see you anymore!"

Michael wanted to chase after her, but he stood in place firmly and saw Nina disappear before his eyes.

Michael returned home sadly.

Looking at Michael who was soaked,

Sherry asked in surprise, "It's raining outside Why don't you hold an umbrella? What happened? Why do you look bad? Did you quarrel with Tania?"

"Mom..." Michael called her feebly.

"Nina already knows the truth."

"What?" Sherry was shocked.

"Mom, I really like Nina. What should I do?" Michael looked at his mother in pain. His eyes slowly reddened and he burst into tears.

Sherry was also heartbroken when she saw her son like this. Finally she sighed helplessly.

"Michael, Mom has been seeing your

pain these years. I think I am so selfish f..." Sherry hesitated for a moment and finally made up her mind, "If you really like her, you can chase her without thinking too much H

"Mom!"

Michael's desperate eyes were instantly filled with hope.

He could hardly believe it.

His mother had always opposed him, but now she agreed with him!

"But you and Dad..."

Sherry sighed again, "Your father and I are getting old. We can't stay with you for the rest of your life. We shouldn't destroy your happiness for the rest of your life."

"I want you to be happy, instead of pretending to be happy all the time."
