I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1184

Bonnie went along with him and laughed as well. "I appreciate your compliment, Billy, but I can never hope to come close to you."

Billy was even happier. "It's alright. You're going to know what kind of surprise I prepared for you soon, anyway."

He shot a glance at the door.

At the next moment, Francesco walked into the room.

She followed his gaze and saw his henchman coming back too, but she didn't grow anxious. Instead, she merely stared quietly.

Extending his hand, Billy said, "Give it to me."

Francesco fished something out of his pocket and handed it respectfully to him.

Once Billy took it, he turned around and walked over to her.

Their backs were turned to her during the handoff. So, she couldn't help but grow slightly alert when she saw Billy heading toward her.

'What on earth did Billy prepare for me? I hope it isn't anything dangerous. Otherwise, I'm going to have to spend more time dealing with him, which means I'll have to keep Ivor waiting longer.'

Billy showed her the gift.

She lowered her gaze and looked at it inquisitively. She was stunned when she saw a bank card in the heart of his palm.

"Um… Billy… What's this?"

'I have to give it to him. He knows what he's doing when it comes to winning loyalty. If this had been anyone else, they probably would've been duped by Billy.

'It's too bad that he's dealing with me. I'm not going to fall for his trick this easily!'

"It's fine. One million is nothing to me. Now that you've joined my organization, you're a part of my family. It's only right that I lend you a hand with your problems."

A hint of triumph flashed in his eyes when he saw that Bonnie was so 'moved' that her eyes turned red.

'As expected, people like Barrett would easily feel moved with a little reward. I was right about him. He might've been multi-talented, but that doesn't change the fact that he's barely older than 20 years old, not to mention inexperienced in the ways the real world works.

'How is he supposed to hold his own against me?'
