I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 1073

Chapter 1073: She Wants Me to Participate

Yanis nodded, "Yes, yes, you didn't say anything, it was me being mistaken."

Phoebe responded with an "mm-hmm," "You're right, it's definitely your imagination."

Yanis didn't press further and changed the topic. She looked at Phoebe and asked in a soft voice, "Don't you need to go back to Seacity?"

Phoebe sighed and lay down tiredly by the bedside, "My parents have been brainwashing me lately, telling me to stay in Manches City. They want me to find a reliable person to manage things in Seacity, and I could just visit occasionally or merge with a suitable company."

Yanis gazed at Phoebe, "What do you think about that?"

Phoebe paused for a few seconds and then looked at Yanis with a serious expression, "Sister-in-law."

"Yes?"

"You're a designer, a renowned jewelry designer at that. If I decide to stay in Manches City, can you help me get involved?" Phoebe's eyes brightened as she spoke, her gaze fixed on Yanis.

Yanis was taken aback by Phoebe's request, "Me, get involved?"

Phoebe nodded eagerly, "If I really stay in Manches City, I want to do what I love. I don't want to stick with my brother at the Lawrence Group. There's so much going on there. If I were to be there, I'd be exhausted in less than three days."

Yanis couldn't help but laugh, "Your brother has been working there for years just fine."

Phoebe clicked her tongue, "It's different. The Lawrence Group was originally managed by Grandpa and given to my brother. I don't plan to be a good little sister and help him out."

"In that case, I'll certainly stand by your brother. I support him."

Phoebe scoffed, "You really don't know how to win over a sister-in-law."

Yanis chuckled, "Have you talked to your brother about this?"

Phoebe shook her head, "My brother has been gradually handing over the company's affairs to my dad and me. I almost feel like he's planning to become a silent partner. How else can I interpret it?"

With that said, Phoebe seemed to make a decision. She sat up abruptly, "No, I'm going to strike at the company. I'm going back to Seacity!"

As Phoebe was about to leave, Yanis extended her hand to stop her, "If your brother is really planning to become a silent partner, even if you return to Seacity, he can still pull you back."

Phoebe sighed, "How can things turn out like this?"

"Sometimes you just have to accept your fate."

Phoebe slumped back onto the bed, looking pitiful, "I'm so unlucky."

Yanis reached out and rubbed Phoebe's head. Then she turned to Aurora and asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll have the housekeeper prepare something and bring it over."

Aurora replied softly, "Anything is fine, I'm not picky."

"Alright, I'll have the housekeeper prepare a variety of dishes and send them over later."

Phoebe continued to keep Yanis company at the hospital until Stella arrived in the afternoon. Yanis returned home with Phoebe after spending the day at the hospital.

Zane had been busy with company matters for the past few days. Even though he had delegated some responsibilities to Dylan and Phoebe, there were still many tasks that only he could handle properly.

"Why are you back so late?" Yanis asked when Zane returned after ten in the evening.
