I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 775

Chapter 775: Suicide in Front of Zane, Instant Death

After Bonnie's aunt left, she locked the door and confined herself alone in this vast villa. She was immersed in the beautiful memories of the past.

...

On the other side, Yanis finished her work and returned to D-King Castle in the late afternoon. Since their separation yesterday, Yanis hadn't contacted Zane, and Zane hadn't called either. With the busy day, she hadn't thought much of it. But upon returning home and not seeing Zane, the emptiness of the house made Yanis feel a momentary discomfort.

Even the aunt was not around. Yanis stood at the entrance for a while before finally bending down to change her shoes.

She poured herself a glass of water, sat on the living room sofa, and then dialed Zane's number.

The call went through, but no one answered.

The phone kept ringing until it automatically hung up. Zane still didn't pick up.

After hanging up the call, Yanis waited for three to five minutes and dialed again, but the result was the same.

Just as Yanis was about to call again, the aunt came back with groceries. "Mrs. Lawrence is back."

Yanis responded, "Auntie, did Zane come back last night?"

The aunt put the groceries aside and replied, "Mr. Lawrence didn't come back last night. He said you both wouldn't be home for dinner, so I went back to my house."

Upon hearing the aunt's words, Yanis furrowed her brow slightly. "Alright, I understand. You can go about your business."

The aunt acknowledged and headed to the kitchen with the groceries.

Yanis took a few sips of water and dialed Zane's number once more, but still, there was no answer.

This time, after ending the call, Yanis dialed Albi's number.

Albi's phone rang several times before being answered on the other end.

"Mrs. Lawrence," Albi's voice was as usual, giving no indication of anything.

Yanis didn't beat around the bush and directly asked, "Albi, are you with Zane?"

Upon hearing Yanis' inquiry, Albi paused for two seconds before responding, "Yes, but Mr. Lawrence might not be able to take your call at the moment."

Upon hearing Albi's words, Yanis was taken aback. "Albi, has something happened?"

Albi hesitated for a moment, but then truthfully told Yanis, "Mrs. Lawrence, Ms. Lucia... she... she committed suicide in front of Mr. Lawrence yesterday."

"What?" Yanis felt like she was hearing things.

Albi spoke in a low voice, "Yesterday, Mr. Lawrence came to see Ms. Lucia. Initially, they were talking fine, but something happened. Ms. Lucia suddenly became agitated, and then... she committed suicide in front of Mr. Lawrence. She died on the spot."

After listening to Albi's words, Yanis couldn't find her voice for a while.

Despite not having a favorable impression of Lucia and even harboring some resentment towards her, upon hearing Albi say that Lucia had committed suicide, Yanis couldn't help but feel a strange sensation in her heart.

Setting aside everything Lucia had done, she was still Zane's mother.

However, Yanis couldn't understand why Lucia would commit suicide in front of Zane.

Thinking about this, Yanis asked in a hoarse voice, "Why did she suddenly commit suicide?"

"I'm not really sure," Albi replied.

Yanis stood up and said, "Where are you now? I'll come over."

Albi responded, "We're still at the detention center. We have a few procedures to go through before the body can be taken away."

Yanis nodded and said, "I'll come right now."

Before hanging up the phone, Yanis instructed Albi, "Don't tell Zane that I'm coming."

"Understood," Albi replied.

After ending the call, Yanis called out to Auntie who was busy in the kitchen.

"Mrs. Lawrence, what's wrong?" Auntie asked.
