I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 768

Bonnie saw that he was wrestling with himself and couldn’t help but giggle. “I was just joking, Ivor. Are you seriously thinking about it?”

At first, he was stunned. Then, he couldn’t decide if he should cry or laugh.

Holding her waist, he said, “You naughty girl. Did you make that up just to mess with me?”

She shrugged, her smile as wide as ever. “You’re such an easy target, though. You’ll believe in just about everything I said.”

“I think you deserve a little punishment.” His eyes were flashing with an inexplicable glow.

She raised her head instinctively and asked, “What kind of punishment…”

Before finishing, she lifted her chin and smelled his minty breath. Then, his seductive lips closed on hers. Her pupils contracted in response. Before she knew what was happening, he was kissing her more intensely.

She should’ve fought back, but she thought about how he was going on a work trip and had no idea when he would return to Pyralis. So, she decided to leave him be.

About a dozen minutes later, both of them leaned back.

She touched her lips. They felt hot and swollen as if bitten by ants, which made her uncomfortable.

Then, she thought about the culprit and instinctively raised her head. She gave him an accusing glance.

“You do this every time. Can’t you be gentle with it?”

He smiled and patted her shoulder to soothe her. “Think of it as my goodbye kiss.”

Then, he saw how both of them were hugging each other and turned his head sideways immediately.

“Pardon me, I didn’t mean to intrude on you guys. I’ll head out and ask them to wait for a minute.” With that, he bolted out of the room.

She turned around and looked at him, only to see him leaving swiftly. Reaching out, she pushed against his firm chest.

“It’s time for you to go.”

His arms remained wrapped around her waist, maintaining the same pose from earlier.

“I can’t bear to leave you alone, Bonnie. What should I do? How about you come with me?”
