Chapter 1013: Don't Be Hard on Yourself

Yanis nodded, "I just went there too."

Bonnie asked, "What does Uncle Baxter want you to do?"

"To visit her more often and say she doesn't have much time left." Yanis didn't hide anything from

Bonnie and recounted today's events truthfully.

After listening to Yanis, Bonnie fell silent for a few seconds before speaking softly, "Yanis, I know you've

always struggled with this, but as death approaches, people tend to speak kindly. Without hiding

anything, I received a call from Aunt Madison a couple of days ago. Although she didn't explicitly ask

me to talk to you, there was a hint that she hoped I could have a good chat with you and persuade

you."

Holding a glass of water, Yanis tightened her grip after hearing Bonnie's words, "You don't need to

persuade me. I really can't let go of this matter."

In truth, Yanis couldn't quite explain why she could let go of Antonio and even Olivia and Martin, but

she couldn't do the same with Madison. Perhaps it was due to the decisions she made before knowing

Madison or the hardships she endured in the Thompson family over the years, causing her to unfairly

project all her grievances onto Madison alone.

Especially Martin's remark: "She won't marry into a wealthy family if she's with you."

So, no matter what, Yanis couldn't find peace within herself. She had given Madison to Martin and

Olivia back then, and over these many years, she hadn't felt a hint of guilt. She hadn't even bothered to

inquire about Madison's situation from Martin.

Seeing Yanis like this, Bonnie didn't say much. She gently patted Yanis' shoulder, "If you can't do it,

then let it be. Don't be hard on yourself."

Yanis nodded and placed the glass on the table. Glancing at the time, she asked, "When do you finish

here?"

Bonnie also checked the time, "Probably in half an hour. Why?"

Yanis shook her head, "Sandy called just now, saying that Stella woke up, but she's not in a good

mood. She asked me to go and check on her."

Bonnie responded, "You go and check on her first. If I finish early, I'll come too."

Yanis agreed, "Alright, you focus on your work, and I'll head over."

"Tell Stella that I'm a bit busy here and will visit her after I'm done."

"Okay."

Bonnie accompanied Yanis to the door and watched her drive away before returning to the store to

continue her tasks.

"Linda, did Yanis leave?" Linda finished her work and came out, intending to talk to Yanis, but she

couldn't find her.

Bonnie continued with her work while responding, "She had something to attend to and left. Do you

need to talk to her about something?"

Linda looked at Bonnie with a pleading expression, "Nothing, I just realized it's been a long time since I

saw Yanis and wanted to have a chat with her."

Bonnie glanced at Linda, "When I wasn't here, I didn't see you missing me like this."

Linda chuckled, "Boss, you know there's a saying that goes, 'If you're kind to someone without reason,

you might be up to no good.'"

Bonnie heard Linda's words and joined in the laughter, "Didn't you just say you had no reason to find

Yanis?"

Linda glanced around quickly and leaned closer to Bonnie, whispering, "I want Yanis to help me design

a pair of couple rings for Stanley, and I'm hoping for a friend discount."

Upon hearing Linda's words, Bonnie was quite surprised and looked at her with a teasing smile, "You

and Stanley?"

Linda blushed and said shyly, "Originally, I wouldn't pursue someone else's boyfriend, but when that

person willingly comes to me, wouldn't it be a waste not to give it a try?"

Bonnie shook her head and sighed, "You really can be quite forward. You better treat Stanley well; he's

such a good young man."

"Lady boss, you're making me sound like a heartless woman. But in the past, they were the ones who

dumped me," Linda pouted.

Bonnie said, "Maybe that's because you never took them seriously."

Linda lightly snorted, "Work comes first, men come second. That's my principle."

Bonnie felt like she couldn't communicate with Linda at all; their thoughts and values were just not on

the same page.

So Bonnie glanced over to where Stanley was coming from, and she called out to him, "Stanley, come

here."

Stanley put down what he was holding and walked over to Bonnie, "Boss."

Bonnie pointed at Linda, "Both of you can leave now. I can see that neither of you has any inspiration in

front of me. Take her away."

Even though there was still much to do in the store, Bonnie wanted to give Stanley and Linda some

private space. They were young after all and deserved some time alone.

Both of them were surprised by Bonnie's decision, and Stanley looked at Bonnie, asking, "Boss, there

are still many things left to handle."

"You can deal with them tomorrow. You two should leave now," Bonnie insisted.

Linda wanted to say something, but Stanley pulled her away and bowed to Bonnie, "Okay then, Boss.

We'll leave first?"

Bonnie nodded, "Go ahead. It's fine if you come in a little later tomorrow."

Stanley acknowledged, "Alright, we'll leave now then."

As Stanley and Linda changed into their regular clothes and got into the car, Linda glanced at the

store's entrance and turned to Stanley, asking, "Don't we still have many things to do?"

Stanley gave her a look, "Are you serious?"

"Why wouldn't I be?"

"Boss just wants us not to disturb her and to have some private time together. Can't you see that?"

Linda pouted, "That means we'll have even more work piled up tomorrow."

Stanley sighed, "You really don't get it, do you? Sometimes, it's important to give the person you like

some personal space without any distractions." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Linda protested, "You're the one who doesn't get it! Your entire family doesn't get it!"

Stanley remained silent.
