I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 625

“Beautifully done, Bonnie.”

Her lips curled into a smile as she gazed at him with approval. “You did well yourself. You reacted quickly and went along with my bit flawlessly.”

Then, something occurred to him, and he spoke timidly. “Are you mad that I’m meeting Eloise privately, Bonnie? Let me start by saying that we might be childhood friends, but I have no feelings for her. Please believe me.”

Turning her head sideways, she glanced at him. “Would you have been able to remain calm if this happened to you?”

The next moment, his eyes sparkled, and his face lit up. “You make me so happy, Bonnie. That means you’re only getting this upset and jealous about Eloise because you deeply love me.”

She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Are you trying to tell me that you met up with her because you were trying to get me jealous?”

“That’s not it. Here, let me explain.”

He proceeded to tell her the entire story. “I didn’t want to meet with her, but she told me I left some of the stuff from my time overseas when I returned to Arvandor. She took them back for me.

“Those things hold a lot of sentimental value to me, so I agreed to meet with her first.”

Then, he leaned closer to her and deliberately breathed at her ear. “Now, I’ve explained everything to you. Are you still mad at me?”

Her lips curled into a grin. “Do you think I’m that petty? Relax. I was just messing with you.”

It was as if a heavy weight had been lifted off his shoulder. He smacked his chest dramatically in front of her.

“You almost gave me a heart attack. I thought you were mad at me for cheating on you. The moment I saw you in the restaurant, I thought of all the possible kinds of punishment you’d put me through.”

Her grin grew wider at that. “You’ve got a rich imagination, Ivor.”

Noticing that she wasn’t mad, he felt a smile coming on.

“Do you think it’s an imagination? It’s my way of telling you that I love you.”

She rolled her eyes at him, exasperated. “You’ve got such a smart mouth. When do you think you can fix this part of you?”

‘After all this time, I thought he’d finally reciprocate my love. What did I get in the end? He cast our friendship aside for this bitch.

‘Gosh. I’m so furious with her! I hate her so much that I could grind my teeth to dust! How I wish I could rip her to pieces. But I can’t do anything except sit here and watch them be lovey-dovey.’

She was in the middle of her thoughts when she saw what was happening before her eyes. At first, she was stunned. Then, her eyes were brimming with a burning rage.

Ivor treated Bonnie with this utmost affection, and he stabbed a piece of food and brought it to her lips, intending to feed her.

“Their grilled swordfish with herb butter is something else, Bonnie. Here, I made sure that there were no bones in this piece. Hurry up and taste it.”

Bonnie and Ivor might’ve been a couple, but she still couldn’t get used to acting this lovey-dovey with him. That said, she noticed Eloise gritting her teeth. Bonnie grinned.

‘I’m sure this frustrates her very much. Very well. I’m going to end her wishful thinking once and for all!’

“Okay. Here I come.”
