When the dinner began, Yanis helped Zane with the food and tissues, as she always did.
She took great care of Zane in every detail.
"Zane!"
Yanis suddenly called out to Zane after passing him a tissue.
Zane smiled and turned his face to look at her. "What's wrong?"
In front of the Lawrences, Zane was always gentle towards Yanis.
Although Zane was tender to Neve, Zane was much gentler to Yanis than usual.
Yanis took a wine glass, poured some wine into it, and then poured the wine for Zane.
"We've never had a drink before. Let's toast tonight."
Zane looked at her and wrinkled his brows. "Stop that nonsense."
Yanis looked at him with clear eyes. "I'm serious."
After saying that, Yanis stood up and looked at the crowd in the room. "I have something to announce."
Once Yanis said this, the eyes of the crowd all fell on Yanis.
Yanis held her glass. "It may be the last time I'm here as Zane's wife, and Zane and I will divorce tomorrow."
Yanis' words stunned the crowd.
Lucia looked at Yanis and then at Zane. "Zane, what's going on?"
Even if Lucia had long expected Yanis and Zane's divorce, she had to be calm in front of so many people.
Obviously, Zane didn't expect Yanis to announce it in public.
"Yanis!" Zane looked at her with displeasure. "What are you trying to do?"
Yanis looked at Zane and smiled. "Only now do I realize that I don't like you as much as I thought, so I don't want to live with you anymore. Let's get a divorce."
Even though Yanis was very sad, she still didn't want to make it too difficult for Zane in front of his family.
"Yanis, what do you mean by that? Is Zane bad to you?" Phoebe looked at Yanis and asked in a deep voice.
Yanis said, "No, he is very nice to me, but I don't love him anymore. I have a crush on someone else now!"
Phoebe was frozen and even Zane looked at Yanis in disbelief.
Yanis didn't look at anyone but held her glass. "I'd like to propose a toast to all of you for taking care of me over the past five years."
With that, Yanis tilted her head and finished the wine in her glass.
After that, she put her glass on the table. "Just enjoy yourselves. I should go."
No one at the table said anything.
After, even Catherine and Edison, who always stood with Yanis, were silent.
"Yanis!" Catherine called out to Yanis as Yanis turned around.
At the sound of this, Yanis turned to look at Catherine, "Grandma?"
Catherine pointed to Yanis' chair. "Even if it's the last time we have a dinner together, you're still my granddaughter-in-law tonight."
Yanis was slightly stunned.
Catherine seems to be a little angry. "Do you want me to beg you to sit down?"
Yanis shook her head right away. "Of course not."
Yanis sat down.
However, she got a little dizzy and frowned.
"Come with me. I want to talk to you."
Just after Yanis was seated, Zane stood up, turned around, and went straight upstairs.
Yanis remained where she was.
Edison said, "Just follow him and make everything clear. You should put an end to yourselves."
With a smile, Yanis stood up, turned around, and followed Zane upstairs.
Zane and Yanis had their own bedroom in the Lawrence's Mansion.
Whenever they stayed overnight here, they shared a bed.
Yanis used to expect the days when they could come to the Lawrence's Mansion so that they could sleep together, even if Zane was unwilling.
Yanis followed Zane through the door.
Zane locked the door inside, turned around, and pressed Yanis against the door. "Yanis, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Yanis had a low tolerance.
Therefore, she was drunk now.
Yanis looked at Zane's angry eyes and smiled, "Don't worry. It was I who proposed the divorce, Grandma won't blame it on you."
Zane sneered at that. "Yanis, you are always dramatic."
Yanis pushed away Zane and said, "Yes, I did it on purpose, to make everyone think I'm always a victim, and to make them get angry with you!"
"Yanis!" Zane got closer, eyes full of anger. "You said you had a crush on someone else. Who is he?"
"It's none of your business." Yanis struggled to push Zane away again, but her strength left her now, which seemed she was flirting with Zane.
Zane yanked her over and threw her on the bed. "Yanis, how shameless you are!"
Thrown on the bed, Yanis felt dizzier, and she even got lightheaded.
"Zane, did you think I would love nobody but you?"
Yanis hit Zane's chest weakly, but Zane didn't feel any pain.
"Without you, I can still find many men who are much better than you..."
Before Yanis could finish her words, Zane stopped her with a kiss.
Yanis tried to resist, but her strength left her.
She knew what she should do, but she was intoxicated with the kiss.
Yanis could not make any noise as her clothes were torn from her body.
Just as Zane was about to take off her underwear, there was a knock on the door.
Neve's voice came over, "Zane?"
Yanis, at the sound of the voice, instantly sobered up and raised her hands against Zane. "Mr. Lawrence, your lover is looking for you."
Zane's eyes darkened as he grabbed Yanis' wrist and said in a soft voice. "Go find Phoebe and ask her to take you to the guest room."
After that, Zane continued to kiss Yanis' body.
Neve stood outside the door and listened to the noise coming from inside. She couldn't help clenching her fists.
After a few seconds, Neve turned to leave.
As she walked away, she took out her phone and dialed a number. "Send the photos to the media."
Only when it was midnight did Zane finish the sex with Yanis.
Early the next morning, Yanis opened her eyes, only to find she was alone in the bed.
Yanis frowned at the soreness all over.
What happened last night kept flashing in her mind like a movie.
Rubbing between her brows, Yanis sat up. She could still smell what had happened last night.
But she didn't know where Zane was now.
