I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 809

Bonnie woke up from her nap and read the news on the internet. Then, she glanced at Ivor, who was cutting up fruits for her, and gave him an approving look. “Well done, Ivor. Things have exceeded my expectations.”

Holding the fruit platter, he smiled and walked over to her side. “Naturally. That’s a task you entrusted to me. Of course, I’ll ensure everything goes well.”

She gave him a sidelong glance and snorted lightly. “Tsk, you would’ve done the same thing even if I hadn’t asked you to. Do you think I don’t know about that? Furthermore, the Knight Group stands to be the big winner of this maneuver.

“I can’t believe you’re trying to make it sound like you’re doing me a favor. You just don’t know when to quit, Ivor.”

‘Acquiring the Gemedia Group would’ve driven back my competitors, especially those planning to conspire with Shane to take me down. Moreover, I can decisively solidify my company’s status in the industry.

‘If I think of the whole thing this way, it’s worth going through everything I’ve experienced in Everpeak.’

Ivor chuckled, stabbed a piece of sliced apple, and brought it before her lips.

“We’re on the same team. If I win, you win too. Don’t you agree? If you think about it that way, what’s the difference?”

She ate the sliced apple before rolling her eyes at him.

“What are you talking about? There’s a big difference there!”

Resting his chin on his hands, he looked at her casually.

“Really? Why don’t you tell me what kind of difference is there?”

She rolled her eyes at him so hard that they were about to pop.

‘I know how good he is at twisting facts to his advantage. If I keep arguing with him, we could talk well into the night. I’m not about to do that.’

“Forget it. I don’t intend to waste my breath here. Give me a minute. I’ll finish the fruit platter, and we’ll meet with Shane. We have to give him the ‘good news.’”

Looking at Shane, seated in the corner, she walked over to him and asked leisurely, “Is that you, Shane? How does it feel to be locked in here? It’s awful, isn’t it?”

Shane saw the big smile on her face and gnashed his teeth instinctively, emanating an air of intense hatred. His eyes were bloodshot at once.

“What on earth are you guys going to do to me? Will you please just come out with it?”

‘Every day I spent here is torture. Since I was locked in here, I have no idea what awaits me next. It feels like being trapped in a guillotine and not knowing when the blade will come slashing down.

‘The worst part is that I’m all alone here. So, I can’t do anything about my situation.

‘Yeah. I tried controlling myself and avoiding thinking about when Ivor and Bonnie were going to torture me. For crying out loud, I don’t even know what they have in store for me.’

Days passed by, and his psyche was constantly being tortured, driving him to the point of losing his marbles.
