I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 Help in Need

It was clearly stated in the contract that their relationship shall end when Neve came back.

But now, he hesitated.

He planned to divorce Yanis immediately after Neve returned. And then he would settle Anika's affairs.

Later, when he found out that Yanis had other plans, he started to dislike her.

So, these years, he never treated Yanis well.

Thinking of this, Zane stifled the unfinished cigarette butt in his hand, turned around, and went downstairs.

He should have gone to Yanis right after sending Neve.

But he was afraid that Yanis would not see him.

So, he went back to Lawrence's Mansion.

He was also sure that Anika would want to go to Yanis, which gave him a proper reason to see Yanis.

"Zane, I'm ready, let's go."

Not long after Zane got downstairs, Anika came down too.

Lucia just came out to pour water. Seeing Anika and Zane, who were fully dressed, she asked, "Are you going out? It's late."

Anika didn't answer Lucia but looked at Zane. "Zane, let's go."

Lucia was kind of embarrassed.

Anika was somewhat cold to her tonight.

Zane glanced at Lucia, who was standing aside with a water glass, "Anika and I will stay in D-king Castle tonight."

Lucia glanced at Anika when she heard the words. She wanted to say something, but seeing Anika's expression, Lucia nodded, "Alright, I'll ask Sophia to go with you, just in case."

Zane declined, "No."

Seeing Zane's refusal, Lucia couldn't say anything, "Okay, call me if you need anything, and I'll go over."

Zane hummed and then took Anika out the door.

Lucia didn't say the words of rejection because she knew that Zane was the only one in D-king Castle now.

Yanis had moved out.

"Angry?"

Walking out of the gate, Zane looked at Anika and asked softly.

Anika shook her head. "I just feel like my mother doesn't love me."

Hearing Anika's words, Zane rubbed her head lightly, "Don't think too much."

Anika turned to Zane, and said softly, "Zane, don't you think mom doesn't care much about you and me? Not even when we were little."

Zane's eyebrows moved slightly. "Even if you are a girl, you have to learn to be independent, so..."

"Zane, I'm not a kid anymore. I can feel who is good to me and who isn't."

Anika said as she walked, "I know girls have to be independent. But over the years I stayed at our aunt's, and you, grandparents, and dad all visited me often. But mom seldom did."

Anika's words reminded Zane of what happened tonight.

Lucia seemed to care too much for Neve.

But it seemed normal at a second thought.

After all, Lucia had always wanted him to be with Neve.

"Zane, maybe I was adopted?"

Zane didn't stop to look at Anika when he heard this, "Anika, don't make random guesses. It will affect your mood."

Anika smiled, "I'm just saying it."

Zane hummed, "Let's go, it's getting late."

Anika nodded and followed Zane into the car.

Out of the garage, Anika took Zane's phone, "Zane, shall we call Yanis in advance?"

"Call her on your phone."

Anika snorted, "Is Yanis still mad at you?"

Zane didn't speak.

Anika didn't say any more. She Yanis with her phone.

The phone kept ringing, but no one answered it.

Anika called twice but to no avail.
