I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1429

It's nothing, just some reagents I made at home. The equipment here isn't enough, so I'm taking them to the lab to process further," Bonnie replied, her explanation seemingly plausible.

However, Ivor sensed something amiss. Narrowing his eyes, he stepped closer to scrutinize the bag in Bonnie's hand. It didn’t look like it held reagents; it looked more like it held clothes.

"What kind of reagents? I'm quite interested. Can I have a look?" Ivor took another step forward.

Bonnie stepped back to maintain her distance from him. Ivor furrowed his brows upon seeing this.

"Bonnie, what are you doing?"

Despite her nervousness, Bonnie maintained her composure. If Ivor checked the bag and found clothes instead of reagents, her lie would be exposed. She needed another excuse.

Taking advantage of the situation, she hid the bag further behind her and looked at Ivor with a serious expression. "I told you, these are experimental chemicals. They contain residues that you shouldn't touch."

After realizing her concern, Ivor quickly apologized. "Sorry, Bonnie. I misunderstood."

Bonnie raised an eyebrow. "What? Do you think I'm hiding something from you?"

Both Ivor and Bonnie needed to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, so she had to be quick to arrive on time.

When Ivor arrived at Pyralis University, several high-level staff and professors came out to greet him. He scanned the area but didn’t see the president.

"Where's the president? Hasn't she arrived yet?" Ivor asked.

The staff and professors exchanged glances before Professor Paul Logan stepped forward. "The president is on her way. Don’t worry, Mr. Ivor. She will be here in time for the ribbon-cutting."
