I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 121

Chapter 121 The Legal Wife

Yanis turned a deaf ear to Phoebe's prevocational words and had no intention to respond.

After all, today was Anika's first day home, Yanis didn't want to argue with any of the Lawrences today.

Yanis could endure it, but Bonnie couldn't let it go.

As soon as Phoebe's said those words, Bonnie smiled, "We would die for it. You think Yanis wanted to be a member of your family? You are not even qualified to be family with her, you know?"

"You..."

"What? Did I say anything wrong?" Bonnie took a look at Phoebe and then at Neve, who was taken here by Lucia, "But I wonder if that woman's really going to be the new Mrs. Lawrence."

Phoebe was about to speak when Bonnie added, "As long as Zane and Yanis haven't gotten divorced, that woman will stay a mistress."

With this, Bonnie lowered her voice, looked at Phoebe and said, "I heard that it's contagious, hanging out with a mistress. Miss Phoebe, you'd better be careful."

Phoebe immediately wore a long face, "Say that again!"

Everyone looked over.

"Phoebe!" Edison warned.

Phoebe glared at Bonnie and angrily left.

"Bonnie. You were amazing!" Anika whispered after Phoebe was gone.

Bonnie was stunned and wanted to say something, but in the end, she simply smiled at Anika.

It was Anika's first day home, although they didn't hold a grand party, everyone who was related to the Lawrences was there.

Even if someone wanted to make trouble, they didn't dare to.

Yanis had not much appetite, but because Anika had been really enthusiastic, she ate some food.

The Lawrence family was a big family. Yanis had married Zane for five years and still hadn't been able to remember all the members of his family.

After simple pleasantries, Yanis and Bonnie left the dining room.

The night passed very slowly.

"Yanis, where is the bathroom?" Bonnie followed Yanis and walked around the backyard before they went back to the living room.

Yanis showed her the way to the bathroom, "I will wait for you in the front yard."

Bonnie nodded, turned around and went to the bathroom.

Yanis poured herself a glass of water before heading to the front yard.

The rain had stopped but it got even colder outside.

Yanis pulled up her collar, standing in the corridor and listening to the lively noises from the house, she frowned.

Whether it was five years ago, or five years later, or during those five years, Yanis had been to such occasions many times, but every time, she felt like an outsider.

No one but the Lawrences knew she was Zane's wife.

"Miss Thompson, do you enjoy the feeling of not fitting in?"

A female voice came.

Upon hearing this, Yanis's hand holding the cup slightly tightened. She turned to look at the woman who had walked up to her, "Miss Bennett, I'm sure you would never have to worry about not fitting in, since you are actress."

Neve raised her hand and tucked a strand of her hair behind ear. "Miss Thompson, now that things have come to this, you are still not letting go?"

"I remember telling you that if you had a way to get Zane to agree, I would meet him in the Civil Affairs Bureau to get through the divorce procedures at any time."

Neve chuckled, "Miss Thompson, you are indeed smarter than me. You knew that Zane wouldn't want to divorce you if you keep acting like this. You'd better make it fast. What do you want? I can give it to you as long as it's within my capabilities."

Yanis listened to Neve's words and pursed her lower lip, "You will give me anything I want?"

Neve looked at Yanis, "You have always had a purpose since you married him, isn't that right?"

"Yes, I do have a purpose."

"So, Miss Thompson, just say it. What do you want?"

Yanis seemed to think about it seriously, and then looked at Neve, "Miss Bennett, you want me to divorce Zane as soon as possible, right? Well, if you gave me 180 million, I will immediately divorce him. How's that?"

Neve's face slightly changed at Yanis's words, and then she lowered her voice, "You are good."

Yanis smiled, "you said you would give me what I want, didn't you? I have been married to Zane for five years. He gave me 180 million dollars and bought me for five years, it's a fair deal. Why would I let go of such a rich man?"

"So, if you gave me 180 million, I can consider divorcing him. Otherwise, Miss Bennett, you might stay a mistress forever while I, the legal wife."

"Miss Bennett, you can think about it. I will be waiting."

Then Yanis turned around and was about to leave.

But as soon as she turned around, she saw Zane, who was standing behind her just now.

She wondered how much he had just heard, but now she just wanted to leave here.

So, after looking into Zane's eyes, Yanis walked pass Zane.

As Yanis passed him, Zane grabbed Yanis's wrist. "I have something to talk to you about."

Yanis paused and looked at Jane, "I have nothing to say to you, and I don't want to hear what you want to say."

Then Yanis took back her hand and walked away.

Zane stood there, watching Yanis leave and frowning.

"After so many years, Zane, when did you learn to hide your thoughts?" Neve walked to the front of Zane, looking at him, "You obviously have fallen in love with her. Why won't you admit it?"

After hearing Neve's words, Zane looked back and took a glance at Neve. "Stay away from her, and Anika."

Neve smiled and walked up to Zane, " Zane, I have always been a greedy person. Before I get what I want, you will be stuck with me. Although, I'm not sure what I would do if I was made unhappy."

Speaking of this, Neve put her hand on Zane's shoulder and said in his ear, "Anika dares not to look at me, should I go welcome her home?"

Zane's face turned sullen upon hearing Neve's words, "Neve!"

Neve, with a smile on her face, straightened his collar for him, "Zane, women are always greedy, you will have to understand."

In everyone else' eyes, the two seemed close and intimate.

Looking at the two at the door, Yanis couldn't help getting mixed feelings.

She was not sad, but...

When Bonnie walked out, she saw Yanis in a trance and looked over. When she saw Zane and Neve so intimate at the door, she cursed and covered Yanis's eyes. Then they turned around, "Let's go say goodbye to Anika and Mrs. Lawrence."
