I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 840

Bonnie was about to speak when several bodyguards in black clothes appeared and surrounded them.

To her surprise, the lead bodyguard was the same one who had expressed concern for Andreas’s safety and insisted on protecting him before they entered the forest.

Remembering Andreas’s earlier comment about half the bodyguards being his stepmother’s people, it became clear. These bodyguards weren’t here to monitor Andreas but to harm him and leave him to die in the wilderness.

Bonnie thought. ‘It looks like I’ve stumbled into a royal family feud.’

Seeing the lead bodyguard, Andreas clenched his fists tightly and let out a cold laugh. "So that’s why she was so eager to send people to protect me. It was all a ruse to harm me."

The lead bodyguard responded with a few insincere apologies. "Sorry, Prince Andreas, but the Queen is now carrying another little prince. To ensure that this new son can immediately be crowned king upon birth, we have to do this."

Andreas laughed coldly again. "Is she not afraid that my father will find out about her actions and abandon her?"

Upon hearing this, the lead bodyguard’s eyes flashed with a cold sharpness. "As long as we leave you here, the Queen will have nothing to worry about."

He then turned his head and signaled to the other bodyguards. "Attack!"

"Yes!" they responded, charging towards Andreas and Bonnie.

Andreas’s face darkened as he turned to Bonnie. "Don’t worry, just stay behind me."

Andreas snapped out of his daze and then scratched his head awkwardly. "Sorry, I got a bit distracted."

"Focus. Let’s take care of these people and get out of here," Bonnie said.

Bonnie then picked up a stick from the ground to use as a weapon. She charged into the fray, engaging the bodyguards in combat.

"Got it!" Andreas shouted and joined the fight.

Together, they fought with such ease that they soon defeated most of the bodyguards.
