I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard )
Chapter 517

Bonnie didn't like attending such occasions. Just as she was about to reject Leo, he continued.

"I've only invited young people from high society to the birthday party. I also sent an invitation to Benedict. I gathered that he wasn't just interested in fashion designs. He was also fascinated with rifles and armaments.

"That's why I'm going to have my men prepare some activities for everyone to have their fill of holding a rifle and shooting some targets."

Leo was prepared before he made this call. She couldn't help but waiver a little.

"Also, there's another important reason I'm asking you over."

"What is it?"

"The International Scientific Research Conference at Motrus is next month. I'm in charge of your safety on that whole trip. I need to discuss and firm up some security matters and deployment issues with you."

She was startled at what he said. "Are you going to lead the team yourself? Is that even necessary?"

Then, it occurred to her that the SR League received a quest from someone to assassinate her.

"Alright. I'll be there."

When she hung up the phone, Ivor asked, "Where are you going?"

"It's Leo. He wanted to make up for Sienna's mistake. So, he invited me to her birthday party this weekend. Do you want to come with me?"

His lips curled into a smile. Then, he took her hands and said, "I wouldn't be interested in it if it's someone else's birthday, but you did ask nicely. So, yeah, I'm coming with you."

'Uh... Forget it. I'm not bothered to explain it. It's pointless, anyway.

'What's more, I'm not ready to deal with it now. How the heck am I supposed to explain Motrus to him?

'It's the International Scientific Research Conference, and I represent Arvandor. That means I have to go. Furthermore, it had always taken between ten and fourteen days.'

She was having a massive headache when Ivor's brow knitted tightly. He remained quiet for a long time before he said, "After Monday, I'll have to travel overseas on a work trip next month."

Her eyes sparkled at his words. "You're going on a work trip next month? When are you going?"

"I'm going on the eighth of next month."

She was overjoyed because she was also going overseas on the eighth of next month.

"I'm not sure how long I'll be away, but it will be between ten and fourteen days."

He couldn't bear the thought of being apart from her for that long. He wished so badly that he could take her with him.

However, he's the sponsor the nation appointed to go to Motrus with Bonita to attend the International Scientific Research Conference together. He couldn't afford to leak this sensitive information, so he hasn't told her anything since he was appointed.

"This is fantastic!" She couldn't hold down the thrill. She didn't notice how bitter Ivor looked until after she yelled gleefully.

"Do you want me to leave you alone so bad? You do know that I'll be gone for a long time. Don't you?"

"That's not it. You're overthinking it. It's just that the timing couldn't have been better. One of my friend's grandparents is having a birthday party. It's kind of far. So, I was going to tell you we must be apart for a period."

The fact was that Jim's grandparents were having their birthday party on the second of next month. The dates didn't clash at all.

"Are you telling me you would've left even if I was not on a work trip?" At the thought of this, his face was no longer filled with somberness. Instead, he was happy. "It looks like we're truly a match made in heaven. We're both occupied on the same day."

Her lips twitched a little. 'Fine. It doesn't matter what he says. All I have to do is ignore him. What matters is that it solves all of my problems.'

There was an art exhibition featuring Orson's paintings exclusively. It was held in Pyralis on Friday night.

Bonnie was invited to it. She had just arrived at the entrance when she saw someone familiar. She might've seen the man before.

"Huh? Isn't that Bonnie?" Some guy standing next to the man looked at her and said.

The man's name was Rhys Richards. When he heard Bonnie's name, he turned around and saw that it was her. At the next moment, his eyes sparkled. "You're right. It's her."
