I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 859

Andreas initially considered calling Bonnie, but she did not reply to his texts. So, he did not think she would answer his call. That was why he chose not to do it.

Avril’s heart softened when she met his pitiful gaze. She had a strong urge to tell him the truth. “Look at the time. If Bonnie’s not on campus, she’s most likely at the research institute. She has a habit of silencing her phone when doing research. I’ll bet that’s why Bonnie isn’t responding.”

Avril said that because Bonnie told her Andreas knew about the latter’s identity as Bonita.

“Oh, is that where Bonnie is?” Andreas nodded. “I guess it’s normal for her not to reply, then. I thought she was ignoring me.”

Avril instinctively said, “You did nothing wrong, so why would she give you the cold shoulder? That’s highly unlike her.”

Andreas nodded in approval, saying, “Yeah, it looks like I was overthinking it. I was worried I did something to upset her.”

Avril remarked, “I thought you two are close friends. Bonnie wouldn’t have ignored you for no good reason, even if you upset her.”

“I guess you’re right.” Andreas nodded again. Then, he remembered something and smiled. “Hey, I have an important question to ask you. Can you help me out?”

Avril could sense something was off when she saw how Andreas smiled. She dared not promise him anything. “M-Maybe you should tell me what you need first. Otherwise, I won’t know if I can help you.”

Andreas asked, “Um, do you know what’s happening between Ivor and Bonnie? I saw how they treated each other yesterday, and I can’t help feeling something strange about it.”

“Uh, well…” Avril had no idea what to say. She was stumped for a long while before finally finding her voice, “I think you should ask Bonnie about that. After all, it’s such a private question. It’s not my place to answer.”

Andreas looked puzzled. “I was just asking about how well they know each other. Is that too private?”

“Yeah, it’s part of Bonnie’s private life. Although I might be her best friend, I can’t answer such questions on her behalf.” Avril waved, hinting at Andreas that she would not answer.

She added, “I-If you want an answer, you should ask Bonnie. You’re barking up the wrong tree, Andreas. I don’t know anything.”
