I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 891

“I beg to differ. Look at Coleman’s hands. He didn’t bring anything with him at all.”

“Eh? I think you’re right. If he isn’t here to give Bonnie a Valentine’s Day gift, then why is he here? Did he come just to speak up for her?”

“Why is it so hard to figure it out? Obviously, he’s just here to keep up appearances. He comes from a wealthy family. There’s no way he would come empty-handed and not give Bonnie anything on Valentine’s Day.”

“You make a fine point. I also think he’s here just for show.”

Bonnie had been wearing a pair of earphones the entire time. Then, she saw Coleman and took it off.

She sounded puzzled when she asked him, “What are you doing here, Coleman?”

He stared at her flawlessly delicate face, and his heart started pounding like crazy.

‘How I wish I could prepare a Valentine’s Day gift for her and see the excitement on her face. I’d love to get her praise and validation.

‘She’s just such an incredible lady. What right do I have to be giving her a gift on Valentine’s Day? If I do it, I just might lose her as a friend for good…’

The more he thought about it, the more his eyes dimmed. He looked at her with conflicting feelings.

“Bonnie…”

She thought there was something strange about him. “Is something wrong, Coleman?”

He stared at her before tearing his gaze away reluctantly.

“I’m going to leave now, Bonnie. Let me know if anyone picks on you and badmouths you again. I’ll be back to teach them a lesson!”

‘I might not be able to give her a gift, but I can certainly teach people lessons for her sake.’

She responded with a smile, “I got it. I don’t really need you to come all the way here to teach them a lesson, but I’m happy that you made the offer.”

‘None of these ladies have said anything that triggered me. That’s why I left them alone. Otherwise, I would’ve beaten the crap out of them myself.’
