I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 1111

Chapter 1111: Yanis Doesn't Want to Stay at the Lawrence Group

Zane drove the car, pulling away from Banyan Garden. After getting onto the main road, he finally spoke, "No, it's Uncle Dylan's idea."

Upon hearing Zane's words, Yanis' brow furrowed slightly, "Uncle Dylan's idea?"

Zane nodded, "Uncle Dylan thinks that if he holds too much power, it might make me uncomfortable, and some of the senior executives who have always stood by my side might also feel uneasy. So he wants Phoebe to take on more responsibilities."

"What do you think?" Yanis asked as she looked at Zane.

Zane spoke softly, "Whether it's Uncle Dylan or Phoebe, I don't have any objections. I've always said that the Lawrence Group isn't just mine."

Yanis nodded, "But Phoebe doesn't want to stay at the Lawrence Group."

"Well, that's not up to her."

In reality, Zane also wished for a bit of relaxation. Currently, Phoebe and he were the only ones capable of shouldering the Lawrence Group's responsibilities.

He had considered Anika before, but she had been quite determined. She had no interest in the Lawrence Group's affairs and didn't want to get involved.

Moreover, Anika's circumstances weren't suitable for surviving in the Lawrence Group.

So, the heavy burden fell squarely on Phoebe's shoulders.

Yanis fell silent for a while, recalling what Phoebe had said earlier. After hesitating, she relayed the conversation to Zane.

After hearing her out, Zane chuckled, "She's quite resourceful. Even if I were to agree, Uncle Dylan wouldn't, and Auntie Two wouldn't either."

"But he is a member of the Lawrence family after all."

"He's still young. Uncle Dylan will make arrangements when the time comes."

Seeing Zane's response, Yanis didn't say more. After all, Zane wasn't the one with the most authority to decide on this matter, and neither was she.

Jo's future was in Dylan's hands.

But Lisa's attitude was firm-she wouldn't let Jo into the Lawrence family unless he stayed by Zane's side.

Yanis was curious about Lisa's insistence on keeping Jo near Zane. Since she wanted Jo to be part of the family, what difference did it make if he stayed with Uncle Dylan or at the Lawrence's Mansion?

This puzzled Yanis.

"Are you wondering why there would be a difference between Jo staying with Uncle Dylan or at the Lawrence's Mansion versus staying with me?"

As Yanis was lost in thought, Zane's voice sounded in her ear.

Turning to Zane, Yanis asked seriously, "Is there a difference?"

"In truth, not much of a difference. Lisa simply doesn't trust Grandpa and Uncle Dylan. She's worried that if Jo stays with them or at the Lawrence's Mansion, he won't be treated well. She's concerned he might even be sent abroad or somewhere else without her knowledge."

Hearing Zane's explanation, Yanis blinked slightly, "Would he really be sent away?"

Zane fell silent for a moment, "Fifty percent chance."

It meant there was a fifty-fifty chance of Jo being sent away or staying.

"Jo is just a little over ten years old now. Wouldn't it be cruel to send him away?"

"I also lived abroad for a period of time in the past, but after my mom made a big fuss, she brought me back."

Yanis frowned slightly, "So you also think that if Jo stays with Uncle Dylan or at the Lawrence's Mansion, there's a good chance he might be sent away?"

Zane responded with an affirmative "Mhmm," "That's why Lisa wants Jo to stay with me. This way, she can see him whenever she wants. But if he stays with Uncle Dylan or Grandpa, the situation would be different."

"So... you don't plan to keep him?"

Zane's tone was clear and firm, "I won't get involved in this matter, and I won't keep him by my side."
