    Chapter 1073: She Wants Me to Participate


    Yanis nodded, "Yes, yes, you didn''t say anything, it was me being mistaken."


    Phoebe responded with an "mm-hmm," "You''re right, it''s definitely your imagination."


    Yanis didn''t press further and changed the topic. She looked at Phoebe and asked in a soft voice,


    "Don''t you need to go back to Seacity?"


    Phoebe sighed andy down tiredly by the bedside, "My parents have been brainwashing metely,


    telling me to stay in Manches City. They want me to find a reliable person to manage things in Seacity,


    and I could just visit asionally or merge with a suitablepany."


    Yanis gazed at Phoebe, "What do you think about that?"


    Phoebe paused for a few seconds and then looked at Yanis with a serious expression, "Sister-inw."


    "Yes?"


    "You''re a designer, a renowned jewelry designer at that. If I decide to stay in Manches City, can you


    help me get involved?" Phoebe''s eyes brightened as she spoke, her gaze fixed on Yanis.


    Yanis was taken aback by Phoebe''s request, "Me, get involved?"


    Phoebe nodded eagerly, "If I really stay in Manches City, I want to do what I love. I don''t want to stick


    with my brother at the Lawrence Group. There''s so much going on there. If I were to be there, I''d be


    exhausted in less than three days."


    Yanis couldn''t help butugh, "Your brother has been working there for years just fine."


    Phoebe clicked her tongue, "It''s different. The Lawrence Group was originally managed by Grandpa


    and given to my brother. I don''t n to be a good little sister and help him out."


    "In that case, I''ll certainly stand by your brother. I support him."


    Phoebe scoffed, "You really don''t know how to win over a sister-inw."


    Yanis chuckled, "Have you talked to your brother about this?"


    Phoebe shook her head, "My brother has been gradually handing over thepany''s affairs to my dad


    and me. I almost feel like he''s nning to be a silent partner. How else can I interpret it?"


    With that said, Phoebe seemed to make a decision. She sat up abruptly, "No, I''m going to strike at the


    As Phoebe was about to leave, Yanis extended her hand to stop her, "If your brother is really nning


    to be a silent partner, even if you return to Seacity, he can still pull you back."


    Phoebe sighed, "How can things turn out like this?"


    "Sometimes you just have to ept your fate."


    Phoebe slumped back onto the bed, looking pitiful, "I''m so unlucky."


    Yanis reached out and rubbed Phoebe''s head. Then she turned to Aurora and asked, "What do you


    want to eat? I''ll have the housekeeper prepare something and bring it over."


    Aurora replied softly, "Anything is fine, I''m not picky."


    "Alright, I''ll have the housekeeper prepare a variety of dishes and send them overter."


    Phoebe continued to keep Yanispany at the hospital until Ste arrived in the afternoon. Yanis


    returned home with Phoebe after spending the day at the hospital.


    Zane had been busy withpany matters for the past few days. Even though he had delegated some


    responsibilities to Dn and Phoebe, there were still many tasks that only he could handle properly.


    "Why are you back sote?" Yanis asked when Zane returned after ten in the evening.


    "Just finished work. Why aren''t you asleep yet?" Zane changed his shoes at the entrance and


    approached Yanis, pulling her into a hug. "Did you have dinner?"


    "Yes, I ate with Phoebe and the others. Phoebe only left a little while ago," Yanis replied as she got up


    and fetched a ss of water for Zane. She handed it to him and asked, "Is your work at thepany


    not done yet?"


    Zane took the ss of water and sat down with Yanis, "It''s almost done, just a couple more days."


    Yanis nodded and recalled what Phoebe had said earlier. After a moment of hesitation, she spoke up,


    "Zane."


    "Yeah?"


    "Phoebe mentioned that she thinks you''re nning to be a silent partner and hand over the Lawrence


    Group to Uncle Dn and her. Is that true?"


    Zane''s brow furrowed slightly at her words. "I did have that idea, but both Uncle Dn and Phoebe are


    quite stubborn. They''re refusing to take over, and even though they''ve been at thepany, they''re


    working like regr employees. They clock in and out on time and work even harder than others."


    Their attitude was quite clear. Even though they were willing to help and even put in overtime, when it


    came to taking over, they had a resolute "If you push me any further, I''ll quit" stance. They had no


    intention of managing the Lawrence Group.


    After hearing his exnation, Yanis mused, "So, what''s your n?"


    "The Lawrence Group isn''t just mine; even if they''re unwilling, I''ll allocate shares ording to the ratio.


    I discussed this with Grandpa, and he''s okay with it."

    is nodded and then brought up Phoebe''s proposal, "Phoebe said that if she stays in Manches City, she


    still wants to start a smallpany. She even asked if I could get involved."


    Hearing this, Zane turned his head to look at Yanis, "Did you agree?"


    "Not yet. I told her I support you."


    Zane chuckled, "You can consider this proposal. When the timees, I''ll help you find a suitable


    ce. We can even relocate Bonnie''s studio along with it. I heard during lunch with some colleagues


    that the area might undergo redevelopment."


    "Are they nning to demolish it?"


    Zane nodded, "It''s scheduled for the next couple of months. The n was already in ce."


    "That works too. I''ll talk to Bonnie and then discuss it with Phoebe."


    "But there''s no rush on Phoebe''s end. We''ll discuss itter."


    Zane understood Phoebe''s character well. If he gave her even a slight opening now, she would


    immediately start nning. However, that wasn''t feasible at the moment. With Yanis pregnant, Zane


    wanted to ensure she was taken care of and didn''t want any mistakes to ur.


    Yanis was unaware of Zane''s thoughts, but she didn''t dispute what he said. After all, starting arger


    jewelry designpany was a significant undertaking that required careful nning and consideration.


    "Alright, we can discuss itter," Yanis agreed softly. "It''s gettingte. Let''s wash up and go to bed."


    Zane agreed with a nod. After taking a few sips of water, he got up and held out his hand to Yanis.


    They headed upstairs together.


    Since Yanis had already taken a shower, she decided to message Bonnie while Zane was in the


    bathroom. Bonnie responded quickly, "Why are you still up sote?"


    Yanis sat up and typed a message to her ex-husband: [Zane just got back. Waiting for him.]


    After sending that message, Yanis mustered the courage to type out the conversation she had with


    Zane earlier. She wanted to share all the details with Bonnie.


    Bonnie called shortly after receiving Yanis'' message, "Is what Mr. Lawrence said true?"


    Yanis confirmed, "It should be."
