I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1129

Bonnie took a deep breath, trying to make her voice sound as normal as possible. "If you miss me that much, you can speed up dealing with things. That way, we can see each other sooner."

She couldn’t let her feelings show too clearly because Ivor had already missed her so much. If she expressed her emotions too obviously, it would only make Ivor feel even worse. So, she had to hold back, even though she missed him.

"I do want to finish everything quickly," Ivor said helplessly. "But this situation is tricky. It's not something I can resolve just because I want to."

The Nidhogg Organization was slow to act, and he couldn't move independently. That was the hardest part. He had tried once before, but the results were unsatisfactory. He was hesitant to act rashly, fearing it would bring greater losses to the organization.

"Well," Bonnie said, dismissively waving her hand, "if things can't be resolved quickly, take your time. Why rush? I married you and became your wife. Do you think I’ll run away?"

Ivor chuckled. "I'm worried you'll run away. Why else would I be in such a hurry?"

"Don't worry. I have a strong sense of responsibility. I won't run away." Given how much Ivor missed her, she decided to say something comforting to soothe him.

Ivor laughed softly. "That reassures me."

The atmosphere between them lightened considerably. Even though they were only communicating by voice and couldn’t see each other’s expressions, they could imagine the other's face from their tone, as if they were conversing face-to-face rather than through voice messages.

Bonnie wanted to say a few more words to Ivor, but someone suddenly knocked on her door.

Bonnie put her phone in the drawer and opened the door for Collin. Hearing the sound, Collin stood up straight and handed her the prepared documents. "Chief, here’s the latest map of District Nine."

Bonnie took the documents, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Try to gather all our subordinates. I’ll be taking action soon."

Collin was puzzled. "Why, chief? Didn’t you say we should proceed slowly? Why the sudden rush? Did something happen?"

"Not really." Bonnie walked forward slowly as she spoke. "I miss Ivor. I want to finish things quickly to return to see him."

"Chief, y-you miss Mr. Ivor?!" Bonnie's words shocked Collin so shocked that he choked on his saliva.
