I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 778

“Stay put and rest quietly. Otherwise, the silver needles might go deeper into your skin, and I won’t be responsible for it.”

At this moment, Ivor would agree to everything Bonnie said.

“Alright.”

So, he remained motionless and rested without a peep. However, he stared at her with unblinking eyes, as if he couldn’t get enough.

She felt a little restless from the way he stared at her. Resting her chin on her hands, she stared straight into his eyes.

“What are you looking at me for?”

“You’re like an angel who fell from heaven. I should stare at you more,” he responded matter-of-factly.

She couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him.

“Are you still sticking to these corny lines in this day and age? It’s a cringy.”

His lips curled into a faint smile, and his eyes were still trained on her.

“Saying something sweet to my soulmate isn’t cringy. On the contrary, it fills me with this warm, fuzzy feeling. Isn’t it the same for you, Bonnie?”

"You're so knee-deep in these corny lines that you can’t even tell the difference anymore. I’m going to have freaking goosebumps.” She rubbed her arms. “Rein it in, Ivor. I can’t stay here any longer if you keep up with it.”

He didn’t have a choice but to do what she said.

“Alright. Fine. I’ll stop.”

That was when it hit him. He chuckled dryly and said, “You got me there. I don’t think I can.”

“That’s what I’m talking about.” She leaned back on the couch leisurely. “Just stay put and stay quiet. I don’t need you to worry about me.”

He wanted her to rest, but the circumstances wouldn’t allow it. So, he had to agree to it. “Alright.”

10 minutes later, she removed the silver needles one by one before hiding her yawn behind her hands.

“Alright. Now, I need to sleep. I can barely keep my eyes open.”

He shifted his body to the side and made some room for her on the bed.

“Just sleep right here, Bonnie. Don’t bother going back to your room. You can think about the issues when you’re well-rested.”
