Chapter 833: From now on, I also have connections

Ivan stared at Bonnie for a moment before finally speaking up, "What do you know?"

"I know what I should know and what I shouldn't know," Bonnie replied, pausing for a moment. "It depends on whether you want to talk to me about what I should know or what I shouldn't know." "When did you start liking tongue twisters?" Ivan looked at Bonnie with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Bonnie raised an eyebrow. "Want to talk about it?"

"Later," Ivan said, then turned to Bonnie. "How long are you going to stay in the hospital?"

"I'll stay until things stabilize. I'll try not to move for now," Bonnie said.

Ivan was about to say something when Bonnie's phone rang, causing Ivan's words to get stuck on his lips.

"What were you going to say?" Bonnie reached for her phone while looking at Ivan.

"You should answer the call first," Ivan nodded, looking at Bonnie.

Bonnie nodded and glanced at the caller ID before answering the call. "Lawyer Phillips?"

On the other end of the line, Lane's voice came through. "Where is your ward? I'm in the hospital lobby right now."

Bonnie was slightly shocked to hear Lane's voice. "What are you doing at the hospital?"

"I'm here to visit the hospital, and incidentally, to hang out with you," Lane said in a serious tone.

Bonnie couldn't help but laugh at Lane's words. "I'm on the 8th floor, Room 806."

Lane replied, "Alright, see you in a bit."

Bonnie responded, "See you."

After hanging up the phone, Bonnie looked at Ivan. "I have to go for a check-up soon. I'll go ahead, and you can wait for Yanis here. She also needs to do a check-up later. I'll come replace you after I'm done." Ivan looked at Bonnie. "Should I accompany you?"

"No need, it's just a few steps away," Bonnie politely declined Ivan's offer. As she stood up to leave, she paused and turned to face Ivan, who was sitting on the couch. "Ivan, sometimes people around you only know what you're thinking after you say it out loud. Not everyone has magic to guess your thoughts."

Listening to Bonnie's words, Ivan chuckled softly. "You're pregnant now, and your IQ has gone up. It doesn't seem like a sign of being silly for three years."

Bonnie rolled her eyes in response. "Whether you want to listen or not, I'm leaving. Goodbye!"

Ivan held back his laughter. "Take your time."

"Got it. Take advantage of this opportunity. Without me and without Mr. Lawrence disturbing, you can have a good chat. There's nothing that can't be resolved through conversation. It's up to you if you still want to get along well. If not, you can leave now," Bonnie retorted.

Ivan stood up and pushed Bonnie towards the door. "Just go. If you say one more word, I won't be able to resist the urge to punch someone."

Bonnie hummed twice. "You really don't know how to appreciate a good person."

"Go quickly," Ivan guided Bonnie to the door, supporting her to stand steady. "Go!"

Bonnie stuck out her tongue at Ivan before walking away. "You don't appreciate a good person!"

Ivan watched Bonnie walk away before turning back to the hospital room.

When Yanis arrived, Ivan was the only one in the room.

Just now, when there were other people around, it was fine. But now, suddenly, only the two of them remained, and for a moment, they felt a bit awkward and didn't know what to say.

"Where's Bonnie?" Yanis tried to make her tone sound as it used to be.

"Lawyer Phillips came over, and she went back to her room, saying she'll come back after the checkup from last night," Ivan replied in a straightforward manner.

Yanis approached and sat on the nearby sofa. "Ivan, I..."

"You know too, right?"

Ivan's voice sounded before Yanis could even start speaking.

Upon hearing Ivan's words, Yanis raised her gaze and met Ivan's eyes.

"I was also surprised when I found out, and I couldn't accept it at first," Ivan said, lost in his own thoughts.

After Ivan finished speaking, Yanis fell silent for a few seconds. "Me too."

Then the two fell into silence again.

Finally, Ivan was the first to break the silence. He looked at her and said softly, "Only family members have no reason to separate. In this way, our relationship can stand side by side with Zane, and he'll have to treat me better."

Yanis didn't expect Ivan to say that.

"Are you really..."

"Yanis, what happened in the past has nothing to do with me. What we had before is still the same now. It won't change because of this," Ivan interrupted Yanis before she could finish her sentence. "Well... since you don't mind, I think having another little brother isn't a bad thing. It feels like I have someone to rely on now. If Zane bullies me, I'm someone with connections," Yanis said.

Ivan chuckled. "Alright, if he bullies you, I'll come pick you up."

Yanis nodded. "Okay."

Just as Bonnie said, sometimes things need to be said to understand what the other person is thinking.

Even with a few simple words, the emotions weighing on their hearts instantly disappeared.

As soon as the two finished their conversation, a nurse came and called Yanis to do a routine check-up.

"I'll accompany you," Ivan stood up.

"The family members are waiting in the room. You won't be able to come in," the nurse said at the right time.

Yanis added, "You wait here. I'll go by myself."

Upon hearing Yanis' words, Ivan nodded. "Alright, I'll wait here for you."

Yanis murmured in agreement and then walked out of the room with the nurse.

Meanwhile, in Bonnie's room, Lane brought a lot of food. "These are all bought for you. I remember you liked them before."

Bonnie looked at the two big bags of food, somewhat shocked. "Did you still think I was a child back then?"

"You're not much different from a child now," Lane said, looking up at Bonnie. "Why didn't you hire a caregiver? Why are you alone here?"

Bonnie sat down on the side and replied, "I didn't want to hire one. Haider mentioned it before, but I refused. Yanis has been with me here all the time, along with Stella and the others. They never left. I don't need a caregiver. Besides, there's nothing major going on with me. It's just best to stay still if I can."

Listening to Bonnie's words, Lane furrowed his brow slightly. "Do you need to stay for a long time?"

"It shouldn't take too long. Once things stabilize, I can go home," Bonnie said.

Lane nodded. "I don't have much to do during this time. I can come and keep you company during the day."

Bonnie responded, "You, as a busy lawyer, have free time?"

"Well, I can't work twenty-four hours a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, can I? I'm not a machine, and even machines need buffer time," Lane replied.
