I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215 Mainly Because of Yanis

After hearing what the servant said, Bonnie frowned slightly and said, "Talking about the business?"

The servant nodded. "I heard Mr. Cooke mentioned it. For other things, I don't know."

Naturally, as a servant, she was not allowed to ask about the private affairs of the family.

Bonnie nodded and said, "Thanks. Please go ahead with your work. We're going back to our room. You can call us when the dinner is ready."

"Okay," said the servant.

Yanis initially wanted to go over to say hello to Travis, but Bonnie didn't give her the chance and dragged Yanis upstairs.

Zane gazed at Yanis until she disappeared with Bonnie upstairs.

Travis sat there and saw what happened just now.

"Mr. Lawrence, I beg your help with this matter. When it is resolved, we will pay the Lawrence Group according to normal procedures."

Zane had a calm expression on his face and said, "No need. I'll ask someone to arrange it."

Travis looked at Zane and said, "Do you help us for the sake of Yanis, right?"

As Zane was about to answer, Travis added, "I heard you two got a divorce?"

Apart from the Lawrence family, very few people knew about the divorce between Zane and Yanis.

Travis knew it when Bonnie slipped out on the phone last time.

In Travis's mind, no matter how excellent Zane was, he was not worthy of Yanis.

Especially at the thought of something that Zane did for Yanis, Travis felt less disposed towards Zane.

Zane did not deny what Travis said just now, but answered him frankly, "Yes, we got a divorce. This project has a little to do with Yanis, but is not all related to her."

Travis looked at Zane, a little puzzled. "Without regard for Yanis, why are you still willing to help the Cooke Group?"

"When this project called for public bidding, our company planned to bid, but later your group took the first step, so we gave up. Now it is glad to see that our company has the opportunity to cooperate with you. It is a win-win result and no one will say no to it," explained Zane.

Judging from Zane's words, Travis found that it was indeed the authentic character of Zane.

Putting aside some other things, Zane was a businessman first.

There was no businessman who refused to make money.

Thinking of this, Travis didn't ask further. "Anyway, thank you all the same for your help," said Travis.

"You are welcome," replied Zane.

Travis checked the time and said, "Would you mind staying here for lunch?"

Zane hesitated for a few seconds, but still politely declined Travis's invitation. "Sorry, I still have something to deal with. See you next time."

Travis invited Zane to stay out of politeness, actually, it would be better for Zane to leave.

From the beginning to the end, Zane did not mention Yanis, and Travis didn't ask him about it either.

Travis accompanied Zane outside the home and said, "Goodbye, Mr. Lawrence."

Zane nodded and got into the car, then drove away.

During this period of time, Anika was unwilling to approach anyone except Zane.

When Zane was around, Anika would talk to Sophia. But if Zane wasn't around, Anika wouldn't even want to meet Sophia.

So every day at noon, Zane would go back to D-king Castle and ask Sophia to bring his lunch over, and then he would return to the company after Anika finished her meal.

In fact, Zane was also quite surprised to see Yanis at the Cooke family just now.

He made two phone calls to Yanis yesterday afternoon but no one answered. After that, he didn't contact Yanis again because he was occupied by the company's affairs.

After he finished his work, he asked Albi to check Yanis's flight, but there was no record. It was found that Yanis's flight was scheduled next morning.

Zane was going to pick up Yanis, but a sudden call from Travis changed his schedule.

The next morning, Zane happened to watch the TV program that displayed the awards-presenting ceremony of the design competition in M Country.

Yanis won the award.

She was the champion.

At that moment, Zane suddenly realized that he knew little about Yanis, extremely much less than what she knew about him.

At the Cooke family.

Bonnie stood on the open-air balcony on the second floor and watched Zane's car drive away and then turned back to the room.

Yanis was already asleep on the bed.

Bonnie went downstairs without waking her up.

Seeing Bonnie coming down, Travis asked "Where is Yanis?"

"She is tired and fell asleep," answered Bonnie.

Bonnie stepped forward and sat down next to Travis, and asked directly, "Did my dad screw up something again?"

Travis laughed and replied, "If your father knows that you speak of him that way, he will definitely get furious."

Travis picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea. He added, "It is not your father's fault, but the problem with the overall project."

Bonnie was silent for a few seconds and then asked, "I am wondering why you asked Zane to come over. If you asked him to help the Cooke Group, but can he agree?"

"He agreed," said Travis.

When Bonnie heard Travis's words, she was stunned for a long time, "Really?"

"He agreed, and he agreed very affirmatively, without even saying a word to make us awkward." Travis put down his teacup and looked at Bonnie, "Does he really get divorced from Yanis?"

Bonnie nodded, "I went to pick up Yanis at the Civil Affairs Bureau, and watched them come out with divorce certificates."

Travis frowned and said, "Your father presided over the project. At the very `beginning, I regarded it as a promising project, but after the take-over, there were too many loopholes, and the capital turnover almost emptied the Cooke Group, so I had to find someone to help us improve the situation and Zane was the best choice. Thus I called him for help. I thought he may not refuse, but he agreed out of my expectation."

"It's normal for him to agree on the business because that is profitable for both sides," said Bonnie.

"You're wrong," Travis said solemnly. "If the project is not well operated in the future, Zane's investment will be in vain as well and the loss might be even bigger than ours. Do you know the reason why he took such a big risk?"

Bonnie became more puzzled and asked, "I am not sure. Maybe he is stupid."

"He will never put himself in a disadvantaged position," said Travis.

"Do you know exactly the reason?" asked Bonnie.

In fact, Bonnie seemed to know the reason, but she thought it might not be possible on second thoughts. After all, Zane was not a sentimental person.

Travis didn't express what he thought in his mind, but he knew the reason clearly.

The major reason why Zane agreed to help the Cooke Group without any hesitation was mainly because of Yanis.

On the other side, when Zane returned to D-king Castle, Sophia just happened to arrive.

Sophia handed the meal box to Zane and said, "Mr. Lawrence, is Miss Lawrence still unwilling to meet Madam Lawrence?"

Zane took the meal box from Sophia and said, "Not sure, I'll ask her later."

"Madam Lawrence has been worried about her and wanted to have a look, but she was afraid that Miss Lawrence was not willing to see her."

"It takes some time for her to recover," said Zane.

Sophia nodded and said, "Okay, I won't go inside to bother Miss Lawrence."
