Chapter 687: I Just Want to Mind Our Own Business.

After listening to Yanis' words, Zane looked at him and asked, "So you want me to help her?"

Yanis wasn't a generous person, especially when it came to Neve's affairs. He felt that he couldn't afford to be generous.

So when Yanis heard Zane's words, he hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm just helping Nancy pass on a message. The final decision is up to you."

Zane didn't hesitate at all and said firmly, "No way."

Zane's words were clean and decisive.

Yanis didn't expect Zane would refuse so decisively. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.

The car suddenly became quiet until they arrived at the Shippou Restaurant. They both knew without saying anything that they wouldn't get out of the car immediately.

Zane parked the car in its spot and turned off the engine. He then unbuckled his seatbelt before turning his face towards Yanis and admitting, "I admit I had some involvement with Neve's case. I don't think seven years plus six months is too much considering what she did was illegal anyway. So I only provided some evidence which led her time in prison being extended slightly longer but other than that it wasn't up for me to decide."

When Yanis heard from Nancy about Zane's possible involvement with Neve's case earlier on she thought even if there were no feelings between them anymore he wouldn't stoop so low as kicking someone who was already down by doing something like this but now hearing it from his own mouth made her feel somewhat shocked.

Yanis remained silent for several seconds before asking, "You..."

"Yanis, this matter has passed already. We should focus on living our own lives instead of worrying about others. People will take care of their own affairs; we don't need to interfere," interrupted Zane before she could finish speaking softly."I knew Nancy went see Neve earlier but what was discussed or mentioned between them doesn't concern us."

After finishing his sentence, Zaneslightly leaned forward towards Yanisthen continued in a low voice, "Yanis, I don't wantto deal with other people's problems right now nor do I have time. I just wantto focuson our matters. Do you understand?"

Looking into those deep eyes full of affection, Yanishad an inexplicable feeling insideher heart. She finally nodded lightly under Zanes' gaze saying "Okay". Zane raised his hand and gently rubbed Yanis' head, then planted a soft kiss on her lips. "Let's go downstairs," he said.

Yanis nodded and followed Zane out of the car. When they entered the private room, several people were already seated inside: Myles and Bonnie, Evan and Haider, as well as Stella.

"Yanis!" Stella waved at Yanis when she saw her.

Because not everyone had arrived yet, men and women were separated. Yanis glanced at Zane before walking over to Stella and Bonnie. "How did you get here?" she asked Stella.

"I hitched a ride with Mr. Hughes and Miss Cooke after being a 1000-watt light bulb," Stella replied with a grin. She then looked at Bonnie's face before adding, "I hope they're feeling generous tonight or I won't be able to eat anything."

Bonnie snorted in response. "Unlike some people who are always showing off their affection."

All three of them knew exactly who Bonnie was referring to in that statement, but Yanis pretended not to understand as she turned towards her friend again. "Why all this fuss for tonight?"

Bonnie smiled mysteriously. "You'll replace out soon enough! Oh hey, where's Ivan?"

"Did you call him?" Yanis asked.

"Of course we did! How could we forget about our dear Ivan?" Bonnie replied with a laugh just as Ivan walked in with Mila by his side.

Bonnie greeted him by saying: "Speak of the devil."

Ivan chatted briefly with Bonnie before heading over to Myles' side of the room; soon enough everyone had arrived so they sat down for dinner without having to order anything since everything was pre- ordered by Bonnie earlier on it was quite an impressive spread too!

After dinner there were other activities planned for them all which included waiting until Bonny went off into the bathroom so that Yanis could follow behind her quietly asking: "Are you planning something special tonight?"

"Shh!" But before Yanis could finish speaking, Bonnie interrupted her sternly," You can't say it out loud!"

Yanis chuckled softly at this response while asking curiously: "Is today really that special?"

Bonnie whispered into Yani's ear later that night," The element of surprise is key - catch them off guard! Don't you agree?"Yanis nodded, "I don't understand, but you do."

After speaking, Yanis looked at Bonnie. "Are all the things ready?"

Bonnie patted her chest. "I'm on it. It's definitely secure."

Yanis made a sound of agreement. "Okay then, we look forward to your performance later."

Bonnie clicked her tongue in disapproval. "How can you call it a performance? It's genuine emotion! Don't you understand?"

Yanis responded with an oh sound. "Yes, yes, your genuine emotion!"

Bonnie hummed and tightened her grip on Yanis' arm slightly. "Yanis, why am I feeling a little nervous?"

Yanis glanced at her and asked, "What are you nervous about? This is such a small matter; it shouldn't be difficult for you to handle."

Bonnie said, "It's not that I can't handle it; I just feel inexplicably nervous. What if Myles rejects me?"

Yanis replied,"... You're wearing his engagement ring already; he'll reject you?"

Bonnie pressed down on the ring and said, "Right, right, you make sense."

After hearing this, Yanis shook his head helplessly and asked Bonnie, "Where are we going later?"

Bonnie snapped her fingers excitedly,"Starry Bar!"

Upon hearing this, Yannis was somewhat shocked as he looked at Bonnie ."You actually chose to propose in a bar ?"

"What's wrong with that? 'Starry Bar', doesn't that name sound beautiful and meaningful ?"

"It's not... Can't we choose somewhere more romantic?"

"I've booked out Starry Bar tonight. Everything necessary has been arranged. You don't have to worry about anything."

After listening to Bonnie's words, Yannis remained silent for quite some time before asking, "Did you spend all your savings on this proposal?"

"No, no. I found someone who knows someone else. It's just symbolic. I couldn't really book out the entire place, could I?"

"I knew it. Clearing out the place seems too deliberate."

Bonnie smiled, "I'm looking forward to Myles' reaction."

"When Myles proposed to you, what was your reaction then?"

Upon hearing Yannis' question, Bonnierecalled for a moment,"Excitement, excitement, and my heart beating uncontrollably. I couldn't control myself."
