Chapter 1089: But I'm More Worried About Him
Bonnie took Yanis and Zane to a nearby restaurant and ordered all of Yanis's favorite dishes.
As Bonnie was about to order more, Yanis stopped her by holding her hand. "What are you doing? Can
we finish all of this?"
Bonnie glanced at Zane and whispered, "Don't you want to eat?"
Yanis hesitated for a moment.
Bonnie continued, "Are you sure you don't want to eat any of this? If you don't, I can cancel the order
and get something else. We can follow your home recipes."
Yanis fell silent.
Bonnie persisted, "You must have some cravings. If you're not willing to eat, then I'll cancel it. Do you
want me to order according to your family's recipes?"
Yanis conceded with a nod, pointing to the menu on the tablet. She whispered, "We'll have everything."
Suppressing a chuckle, Bonnie ordered the dishes Yanis wanted.
Zane didn't say much and focused on helping Yanis pick the food, serving her, and making sure she
was well taken care of during the meal.
Watching them, Bonnie regretted her choice. Did she have nothing better to do?
Why did she even invite them to dinner?
Unable to tolerate it any longer, Bonnie scooped a mouthful of food for Yanis. "You're all grown up. Do
you really need to be pampered like this? You're becoming too dependent!"
Yanis turned to Bonnie, gave her a glance, and then turned to Zane, asking seriously, "Do you pamper
me?"
Zane removed the fish bones, picked up a piece of fish, and offered it to Yanis. "Yes, I do."
Bonnie sighed, "... This food is hard to swallow. If I ever dine with you two alone again, I'll... I'll just
become a third wheel!"
After saying that, Bonnie took the food back from Yanis's bowl and bit into it, playfully imitating Yanis's
eating style.
Yanis, feeling unusually open today, ate heartily, indulging in foods that Zane rarely allowed her to
have.
After finishing the meal, Yanis felt a bit tired and bid farewell to Bonnie, intending to return home.
While Zane went to the restroom, Bonnie leaned over to Yanis and whispered, "He really loves you a
lot now."
Yanis smiled, her eyes twinkling. "That just means I'm not petty."
Bonnie was a bit puzzled and turned to Yanis. "What do you mean?"
"If I were petty, based on his past behavior, he wouldn't even have a chance to show his affection now."
Bonnie suddenly understood. "Well, you're right. He used to keep a close watch on you. If it weren't for
Neve's interference, you might already have three or four kids!"
Bonnie's words caught Yanis off guard. She was about to retort, but then she remembered what Robin
had said earlier. Her words got stuck in her throat, and she ended up not responding.
It was all premeditated.
A mutual scheme.
Perhaps, that was the best way to explain the relationship between her and Zane.
Bonnie, unaware of Yanis's internal struggle, turned to Zane and said, "Take Yanis home. I need to
meet with a client and then go check on Mles later."
Yanis nodded at Bonnie. "Sure, take care of your business."
Bonnie turned to leave but then stopped and turned back. "How about visiting the new place in a few
days?"
"Have you checked it out?"
"Isn't it the one your guy recommended? The location is great. I liked it at first sight."
Yanis agreed. "After you finish your busy days, we'll go check it out together. Let's finalize things before
the end of the year. It'll get too hectic later."
Bonnie replied, "I'll get in touch with you once I'm done with these busy days."
"Mr. Lawrence, take Yanis back to rest. I need to get back to work. I don't have time to witness your
lovey-dovey scenes," Bonnie teased as Zane approached.
Zane reached Yanis and hugged her, saying, "Let's head back."
Bonnie waved at them before leaving first.
After Bonnie had gone, Zane looked at Yanis and asked in a soft voice, "Going home?"
Yanis nodded. "Let's go home."
As they settled into the car, Yanis remembered what Bonnie had said earlier. She turned to Zane. "Did
you let Bonnie check it out?"
"I had Albi share the address with her."
Yanis nodded. "I'll go take a look in a few days too. We should decide before the new year. Otherwise,
things will get chaotic when the time comes."
Yanis had already calculated the timing. She'd be around five to six months pregnant by the time the
new year arrived. Even if it wasn't busy during the holidays, she'd have limited energy. So, she wanted
to wrap up as much as possible before the new year to avoid a pileup of tasks.
Zane didn't oppose Yanis's plan. "I'll go with you."
Knowing Zane was concerned, Yanis didn't refuse. She agreed with a smile.
Back at D-King Castle, Yanis went straight upstairs to take a nap. However, once she lay down after
freshening up, she found herself unable to fall asleep. Restless, she tossed and turned in bed, unable
to find a comfortable position.
After a while, Yanis sat up again, grabbed her phone, and sent Zane a message. Although he was just
downstairs, she felt reluctant to disturb him and opted to use her phone instead.
Soon, Zane pushed open the door and entered her room. Seeing that Yanis was awake, he climbed
onto the bed without hesitation. "Let's take a nap together."
Yanis had been thinking the same thing, so when Zane suggested it, she put down her phone and
snuggled into his arms. "Good afternoon."
Zane pulled her close, hugging her tightly, and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Good afternoon." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
With Zane by her side, Yanis quickly drifted off to sleep.
Zane wasn't particularly tired, but holding Yanis in his arms, he began to feel drowsy as well. He closed
his eyes and rested for a while.
About half an hour later, Zane woke up. Looking at Yanis sleeping soundly, he gently removed his arm
from beneath her neck and got out of bed. He tucked her in, then quietly left the room.
Aunt Gloria and Aunt Alice were napping as well, so the living room was empty at this hour.
Zane went downstairs, poured a glass of water, and sat down. Just as he took a sip, his phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Zane's brows furrowed slightly. He answered the call. "Dr. Wood?"
"Mr. Lawrence, it's me. Could you come over sometime today?" the voice on the other end of the line
asked.
Zane checked the time. "Perhaps this afternoon."
After the arrangements were made, Zane inquired, "Is something wrong? Is it related to Anika?"
