Chapter 972: Because They Are Yanis's Family

"Sis, you..."

"Sandy." Stella sternly interrupted, "If you continue like this, you'll put Brandon in a difficult position!"

Sandy fell silent instantly after Stella's words. "Alright, I won't say anything more."

Stella glanced towards the living room. "Now that you've made your choice, you need to control your temper and not be so stubborn in front of me. You're a mother now, and there are many things you need to consider."

Sandy nodded, "I understand. I'm an adult now."

Stella reached out and gently ruffled Sandy's hair. She whispered, "Sandy, I wish you happiness."

Sandy hugged Stella and whispered in her ear, "Sis, I also hope you replace happiness. Only then can I truly be happy."

Stella listened to Sandy's words and chuckled softly, "I know what you're worried about. I promise you, after meeting the right person, I will consider it too."

Sandy felt relieved upon hearing Stella's response and didn't say anything more.

At that moment, Yanis and Bonnie walked over.

"Are we interrupting a sisterly conversation?" Bonnie playfully asked as she approached.

Sandy looked at Bonnie and said earnestly, "Bonnie, it's been so long since I last saw you, I missed you."

Bonnie sat down beside Sandy and teased, "Is that real or just pretend?"

Sandy gazed at Bonnie with a serious expression, "It's definitely real."

Bonnie chuckled at Sandy's response and glanced at her belly, saying, "Congratulations on becoming a mother."

Sandy's lips curled up, "Thank you, Bonnie."

Yanis joined the conversation, "What are your plans, Sandy? Now that you're pregnant, are you going to continue working?"

Stella quickly interjected, "Be careful during the first three months, even if you plan to work, wait until after three months, or maybe even after giving birth."

Sandy replied softly, "I'm surprised by the current situation, but even so, I don't plan on taking any endorsement deals or jobs. Since this child chose to come at this time, we will prioritize them. Moreover, if I do decide to work, Brandon will worry. If his family replaces out, they'll surely have their opinions too."

Stella felt a sense of relief as she listened to Sandy's words.

It seemed like Sandy had grown up and become sensible in an instant.

In Stella's memory, Sandy had always relied on her for everything, seeking her opinion on everything. But later, after questioning her marriage to Luca and facing certain circumstances, Sandy underwent significant changes.

Stella had worried that her own experiences would make Sandy resist the idea of marriage, but now that she saw Sandy with someone she liked, she felt completely relieved.

Especially seeing how much Brandon cared for Sandy, Stella felt even more content.

After dinner, Stella and Brandon went to the living room.

The others sat in the main room.

Sandy seemed restless, her gaze constantly shifting towards the direction of the living room.

When Yanis noticed Sandy's unease, she handed Sandy a glass of juice and whispered, "No need to worry, Stella won't make things difficult for Brandon."

After hearing Yanis's words, Sandy shifted her gaze to Yanis and whispered, "Yanis, do you think my sister might suddenly change her mind? Why does Brandon look so serious?" Yanis glanced towards the living room and chuckled lightly, "It's his first time meeting the parents, can he not be serious?"

Upon hearing Yanis's response, Sandy turned to Zane, who was sitting beside Yanis, and asked, "Was Mr. Lawrence as nervous when he met your family for the first time?" The sudden shift in the topic caught them off guard.

Before Zane could respond, Bonnie, who was sitting nearby, spoke up, "Mr. Lawrence has rarely met anyone from the Thompson family."

"Rarely met anyone?" Sandy looked at Bonnie, "Yanis and Mr. Lawrence have known each other for nearly ten years. Are you saying they have met only a few times?"

"Not quite." Yanis interjected, "It's not as few as Bonnie says. They didn't go to meet them; rather, they often came to replace him."

Bonnie recalled Olivia and Martin often visiting Zane, asking for money for various reasons, and he would give it to them without asking any questions. Bonnie had always been curious about why Zane, who was once cold and distant towards Yanis, readily helped the Thompson family without hesitation.

Curious, Bonnie turned to Zane, "Mr. Lawrence, I've always had a question."

"What is it?" Zane raised an eyebrow, looking at Bonnie.

Both Sandy and Yanis also turned their attention to Bonnie, waiting for her question.

Bonnie looked at Zane and asked softly, "Why did you help the Thompson family when, based on your attitude towards Yanis, you should have refused?"

After a brief silence, Zane spoke in a low voice, "Because they are Yanis's family."

Others might not understand the meaning behind Zane's words, but Yanis did.

Back then, Zane's cold demeanor towards her was merely to protect her. So, when the Thompson family asked him for money, Zane didn't think much and just gave it to them. Besides, Zane had other intentions at that time; he wanted Lucia, who held a grudge against Yanis, to believe that he had no feelings for Yanis. Only then would Lucia stop targeting Yanis.

At that time, Lucia was determined to make Neve the Lawrence family's daughter-in-law.

Looking back, Zane realized that his actions were somewhat lacking.

If Yanis hadn't been so steadfast in her feelings for him, his arrogant assumptions might have driven her away long ago, and he might not have had any chance at all.

So now, Zane felt truly grateful that Yanis had always held a special place for him in her heart.

After exchanging greetings with Brandon, Bonnie turned to Yanis and asked in a hushed voice, "Can Stella still object? It's a done deal now."

Yanis whispered back, "She won't. Sandy has come to terms with it, and Stella is already happy."

Hearing Yanis' response, Bonnie couldn't help but recall Stella's past experiences, thinking that Sandy's current attitude must have brought her joy.

"Sis, I know what you're thinking. I believe in my judgment," Sandy said softly.

Stella reached out and gently patted Sandy's hand. "You've made up your mind, and that's fine. Brandon seems like a good person, and I've already talked to Yanis. She's been friends with Mr. Lawrence for so many years, and he must know what kind of person Brandon is. If Mr. Lawrence says he's trustworthy, then he must be."

Stella paused for a moment before continuing, "Besides, there aren't that many Lucases in the world."

Hearing Stella's words, Sandy embraced her and whispered, "Sis, why don't you think about yourself too? I've talked to Brandon about it. After dealing with these matters, he has a friend coming back from abroad, and I'll introduce you to him. The person he lives with is genuinely pure-hearted, and he's never had a girlfriend before. His family background is good, and his parents are both teachers."

Stella replied, "... Sandy, are you getting married, or am I?"

"Both, why not? It's a double celebration," Sandy said.

Stella tapped Sandy's forehead with her finger, "You're already celebrating doubly. Don't worry about my affairs. Take care of yourself, Brandon, and the baby."
