Yanis leaned on the seat, looked at the front of the car, and said in a calm tone, "When I was taken to the hotel, the first person I suspected was your mother.
Do you know why?" When Yanis said this, she turned to him, and then looked back.
Zane didn't speak.
Yanis said, "Because your mother knew that I opened the door for Ivan at the M Country Hotel, if she didn't send someone to watch me, how could she know?
She wants us to divorce so you can marry Neve. But she could have told me. Playing tricks is not necessary."
Yanis paused for a few seconds. Then she added, "But I didn't expect Miss Bennett to be as impatient as your mother, to do such a thing.."
Zane listened, and wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.
It wasn't Neve alone. Phoebe was also involved.
And although Lucia didn't do anything, she knew about the plan.
She pretended not to know it.
Zane's silence upset Yanis even more, making her feel cold.
After Yanis finished her speech, Zane didn't speak, nor did Yanis.
It was so quiet in the car that they could hear each other's breath.
After not knowing how long, Zane opened his mouth, "Yanis, do you still want a divorce?"
These words were like a bomb, suddenly exploding on the tip of Yanis' heart.
It took her a long while to come back to herself.
Many times, she wanted to cut off all links with him and leave him for good.
But now, when she heard such words from him, Yanis still felt heartache.
She had the same feeling when he proposed the divorce after Neve's return.
It turned out that no matter what happened or under what circumstances, Zane's words had such a great influence on her.
After a long silence, Yanis turned to look at him.
He focused his eyes on the front, without giving her the slightest look.
Yanis looked at his side face.
Yanis has always known that Zane is good-looking. She liked everything about him. That was why she had been so devoted to him.
Looking at his side face, she could still feel her heart race.
But it was not as violent as years back.
"Yes."
Yanis' voice was hoarse, which made the word sound more depressing when she murmured it.
When Zane heard Yanis' answer, he tightened his hands on the steering wheel.
After a long time, he responded, "I'll pick you up when you get better."
He didn't say much, nor make things clear.
But Yanis got what he meant.
She nodded slightly, "OK."
Neither of them spoke for the rest of the trip.
The car soon stopped at the door of Bonnie's studio.
Myles and Bonnie hadn't come back yet.
The door of the studio was open, there were only Bonnie's assistant and a few staff members.
