I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 984

Chapter 984: He's Fine

Yanis didn't expect Zane to say such words. "He... is fine," she replied with a smile.

Bonnie nodded, teasingly saying, "Yes, yes, Mr. Lawrence is the best in your heart."

Yanis smiled but didn't say anything more.

Two people working together could always finish the task faster than one person alone. After tidying up, Yanis played with Mles in the living room for a while before leaving the small villa with Zane.

Stella went with Brandon and the others. Sandy and Brandon had planned to stay at D-King Castle, but since Sandy had resolved most of the issues, they decided to go directly to Linen Bay to stay.

...

As soon as Yanis and Zane returned home, before they even had a chance to change their shoes, Zane's phone rang.

It was a call from Lawrence's Mansion, informing them that Old Mrs. Lawrence had accidentally fallen while fetching water, spraining her waist, and hitting her head, resulting in a mild concussion.

So, Yanis and Zane hurriedly rushed to the hospital to see Old Mrs. Lawrence.

Sophia greeted them as they entered. "You're here. Old Mrs. Lawrence insists on going back home. You must persuade her."

Yanis approached the bed where Old Mrs. Lawrence lay, comforting her softly, "Grandma, you should stay here tonight. We'll wait for the doctor to finish the examination."

"It's just a sprain. I don't think it's a big deal. Let's go back home. I find it more comfortable there." Perhaps because she was old, she didn't like staying in the hospital.

Yanis held Old Mrs. Lawrence's hand gently and said in a soft voice, "If you go back like this, we'll worry about you, and we won't be able to sleep. Do you want us to be sleepless with worry?"

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Lawrence looked at Sophia and said, "Why did you call them? It's not a big deal."

Sophia looked somewhat helpless as she replied, "You fell like this, how can I not inform the Young Master and Young Madam?"

Old Mrs. Lawrence snorted, "You people are making a fuss over nothing."

Then she lowered her voice and said to Yanis, "Yanis, these doctors are not reliable. They're just trying to scare you so you'll spend money."

Yanis felt both amused and helpless at Old Mrs. Lawrence's words but could only play along, "But isn't it good to get a checkup to make sure nothing's wrong?"

Old Mrs. Lawrence looked at Yanis and said, "You're just like them. Alright, I'll stay, so tell Uncle Dylan not to come. I'm fine."

This last part was directed at Zane.

Zane nodded, "Okay, I'll call them and let them know."

Zane nodded at Yanis and then went outside to call Dylan and the others.

"Why did she fall?" Yanis asked as she looked at Old Mrs. Lawrence.

Sophia spoke up, "These past few days, Old Mrs. Lawrence insisted on sleeping upstairs. She wouldn't let me leave the lights on, and she didn't call me when she came downstairs to fetch water. She stepped on empty space and nearly fell down the stairs. If she had fallen from the top, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"Yanis, don't listen to her nonsense. I was just..." Old Mrs. Lawrence started to explain.

"Grandma, no matter what, you fell. From now on, you'll stay on the first floor, okay? No more going upstairs," Yanis gently interrupted.

Old Mrs. Lawrence nodded, "Alright, I'll listen to you."

Sophia brought a glass of water and handed it to Old Mrs. Lawrence, saying, "Take your medicine and rest for a while. It's getting late."

Old Mrs. Lawrence was indeed tired. After taking the medicine, she soon fell asleep.

Yanis watched as Old Mrs. Lawrence slept and then turned to Sophia, saying softly, "Sophia, Zane will take you back. I'll stay here and watch over her."

Sophia waved her hand, "It's okay, I'll stay here. If it weren't for being a little worried, I wouldn't have bothered you."

"Grandpa is also at home. You should go back," Yanis insisted.

Old Mr. Lawrence hadn't been in good health lately, either catching a cold or feeling uncomfortable in different parts of his body. He couldn't be left alone.

Sophia reluctantly agreed and went back to Lawrence's Mansion. Zane called Albi to take her home and then stayed with Yanis at the hospital to take care of Old Mrs. Lawrence.

"You can rest on the hospital bed for a while. I'll keep watch here," Zane suggested.

Yanis shook her head, "I'm not that tired."

They both sat on either side of the hospital bed, watching over Old Mrs. Lawrence.

The next morning, Rachel and Dylan arrived early.

"You stayed here last night?" Rachel asked Zane softly.

Zane nodded, "Yanis just fell asleep."

Rachel checked the time, "You take Yanis back. Uncle Dylan and I will stay here."

Dylan also nodded, "Yes, we'll take care of her. You go rest."

Zane agreed, "Then I'll take Yanis back. When Grandma wakes up, let her know you're here."

Rachel nodded, "Sure, drive safely."
