Zane checked the time. "Let's go back to the hotel and return to Manches City in the afternoon."
Albi responded, "I've already arranged everything here, and the person in charge will handle it properly."
Zane hummed and didn't say any more.
He walked out of the office with everyone surrounding him.
The cell phone in his pocket also rang at this time. Zane took out the cell phone and checked. The call was from Anika.
Zane answered the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, Anika's voice came from the phone. "Zane, when are you coming back? Grandma accidentally fell today."
Hearing Anika's words, Zane frowned. "Is she ok?"
"Calf fracture, nothing else. Grandma let me ask you when you will come back and have you found Yanis?"
"I'll be back in the afternoon."
Zane only answered the first question, as for the second question, Zane automatically ignored it.
He had been looking for Yanis for more than a month, but there was no news at all. It was like Yanis vanished from this world. No matter how hard he tried to find her, there was no news.
Anika wanted to ask a few more questions, but it was obvious that Zane didn't want to talk about Yanis. So Anika didn't dare to ask any more questions and hung up after saying a few words to remind him to take care and come back soon.
At the same time in Manches City, the First Hospital.
The old Mrs. Lawrence was lying on the hospital bed with a plaster cast on her leg.
After Anika hang up the phone, she looked at her. "What did your brother say?"
Anika put down the phone, stretched out his hand to hold the old Mrs. Lawrence's hand, and said gently, "There should be no news about her, otherwise he will definitely tell me."
The old Lawrence sighed. "Yanis must be sad. I guess she doesn't want to see your brother anymore."
"Grandma, I should take the blame for this matter. If I hadn't been behaving well all the time, Zane wouldn't have been threatened by Neve because of me."
The old Lawrence raised her hand and gently stroked Anika's head, and said gently, "I can't blame you for this."
Anika wanted to say something, but someone knocked on the door of the ward at this time, and then the door was pushed open.
Anika turned her face and looked over. When she saw who it was, Anika's face turned cold instantly, and her tone was even more indifferent. "What are you doing here?"
Lucia was holding a fruit basket in her hand, feeling a little embarrassed. It had been a while since they had Lucia. Lucia's haughty attitude had long disappeared. She looked even a lot older this time.
A month ago, Miller filed the paper for divorce from his side.
Because of the affair between Lucia and Bruce, and they had a daughter, Neve, the judge sentenced their divorce quickly.
Although the court sentenced Lucia should leave the family without getting anything.
But Miller thought that Lucia was also Zane's mother, so he gave Lucia some money and a small villa, which was his last help to Lucia.
Neve was detained because of the framing five years ago and the harm she did to Anika this time.
As for how long the sentence would be, there was no public trial yet.
Because Lucia had been begging Anika, Miller, and Zane all this month, and wanted them to come forward to help Neve mitigate her crime.
But no matter what she said, no one wanted to help her.
"Anika?"
The old Mrs. Lawrence called her in a low voice.
Only then did Anika recover and look at the old Mrs. Lawrence. "Grandma, what's up?"
The old Mrs. Lawrence waved at Anika. "Come, come here."
Anika walked to the bed and sat down on the chair beside the bed.
The old Mrs. Lawrence raised her hand and gently touched Anika's head, and said gently. "If you don't want to forgive her, then we won't forgive her. She did something wrong, and she should be punished. This is the rule."
Anika hummed, lying on the side of the bed, and muffled. "I thought I shouldn't be her child. After all, she treats Neve better than me."
The old Mrs. Lawrence sighed, just patted Anika's shoulder lightly, and said nothing.
...
In a shopping mall in Viteto.
The elevator that Zane took was broken, but luckily the problem was solved fast. He stopped on the fifth floor and then took another elevator to go downstairs.
Albi followed Zane, talking to the person in charge of the mall.
When talking about the investment, Albi saw Zane get off the elevator and walked forward.
"Mr. Lawrence!"
Albi yelled, and Zane continued walking as if he didn't hear it.
