I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 698

Chapter 698: Induction of Labor

Phoebe saw that the Old Mrs. Lawrence had opened her mouth, so she quickly said, "I don't feel like I'm in a rush. I'll wait another two years..."

"Why don't you wait until your dad and I are six feet under before finding someone?" Rachel interrupted Phoebe before she could finish her sentence. "Look at all the people your age who are already married and have kids calling them mom and dad. Do you still think you're not in a rush?"

Phoebe rolled her eyes and quietly retorted, "My brother and sister-in-law haven't even had kids yet."

Yanis: "..."

Zane: "..."

After Phoebe finished speaking, the Old Mrs. Lawrence turned her attention to Zane and Yanis with some well-meaning advice. "Zane, Yanis, you two are also around the same age now; it's time to consider taking care of yourselves and having children."

Afterwards, the old lady looked at Sophia standing on one side of the room. "Go get me that recipe I asked for last time so Yanis can use it for his health regimen."

Sophia replied with an affirmative sound before turning around to retrieve what was requested.

Yanis gently squeezed Zane's thigh.

Zane cleared his throat lightly. "Grandma, Yanis and I will consider it; please don't worry about us."

"If I didn't worry about it then we'd have to wait until your grandfather and me were six feet under before seeing any grandchildren," replied Grandma.

Zane: "..."

Originally they came over for dinner but ended up being bombarded with pressure to get married or have children.

In the end Zane used work as an excuse to leave early with Yanis from The Lawrence's Mansion.

As they left Grandma called out something about giving them a recipe which supposedly helps fertility issues for them both to look at together later on.

At that moment Yanis thought - if he couldn't understand this prescription how could Zane?

How would looking at it together make any difference?

But then something else occurred to him...

"Linda doesn't want marriage or blind dates because... she hasn't let go of someone," said Yanis suddenly.

When Zane heard this he turned his head towards him immediately asking "You mean Ivan?"

Yan nodded back "Linda actually liked Ivan quite a bit."

Initially Phoebe may not have been very decisive due Neve's influence but eventually she found herself without any backbone whatsoever when making decisions regarding herself or others – always thinking everyone else was right without forming opinions of her own. If Phoebe had her own thoughts from the beginning, maybe the ending would be different. But no one can predict what will happen in the future.

Nowadays, although Phoebe still has feelings for Ivan, he is already engaged to Mila. Therefore, Phoebe is destined to have no more contact with Ivan in this lifetime.

"I don't see what's so great about Ivan," Zane said with a hint of bitterness in his tone.

Yanis smiled and said softly, "I think Ivan is pretty good."

When Zane heard Yanis' words, he turned to her and asked, "So does that mean Mrs. Lawrence thinks I'm not good enough?"

Yanis cleared her throat and asked him back, "Then tell me when and where did you see Mr. Weeks at a nightclub?"

Zane hesitated for a moment before replying awkwardly: "Uh... Albi went there."

Yanis chuckled and teased him further: "How do you know Albi saw Mr. Weeks?"

"Yanis," Zane replied seriously. "You have to trust men's instincts. The first time I saw him I knew he wasn't a good person."

Although Yanis wanted to tease him some more she decided against it after seeing how serious he was.

Back at D-King Castle...

As soon as they arrived Yanis got out of the car while waiting for Zane to park it properly.

Just then Bonnie called on the phone.

"Bonnie?" Yanis answered.

"Have you gone home or are you still at Lawrence Mansion?" Bonnie asked quietly on the other end of the line before continuing: "Myles and I are having dinner at Maple House when we met someone who seems like Zane's sister."
