The tension in Jim's voice made it clear how much he cared about Bonnie.

Elsa anxiously tugged at her brother's sleeve and said, "Kramer, I've never seen Jim so concerned about someone. Could it be that they're in a relationship?"

Kramer sighed deeply. "If that's the case, I can only wish them well."

"Kramer!" Elsa stomped her foot in frustration.

"Alright, stop bothering me. They're both outstanding in appearance and talent. They're indeed quite a match."

Bonnie told Jim about Keenan's situation.

Jim gritted his teeth and said, "That brat. I chose him as your bodyguard over many other elites because of his exceptional ability and temperament. But he ended up causing such trouble and making you come here alone."

"It's not entirely his fault. He was too worried about me, so he stood under my window in the rain."

"Don't defend him. Negligence is negligence!" Jim said it sternly. "Once the birthday banquet is over, I'll escort you to Pyralis. After that is the International Scientific Research Conference, so we need to prepare in advance."

Bonnie smiled. "You don't need to be so tense. Look at how furrowed your brow is. Anyway, let's not talk about this. Where are your grandparents? I haven't congratulated them yet."

"Oh, look at me, making you stand at the door for so long. Hurry inside. If my grandparents find out you're here, they'll be thrilled. They've been wanting to meet you for a long time." "Ah!" Jim suddenly stopped and patted his forehead. "Look at me. I got so excited that I forgot everything. Your identity is special, so I can't tell my grandparents about it." Bonnie shrugged. "They're your grandparents, your closest relatives. It's fine to tell them."

Jim thought for a moment. "Let's forget about it. They're old, and their hearts aren't too good. If they get too excited-"

"Then we'll find another opportunity to tell them later," Bonnie suggested.

"Yeah, that's the only option."

Watching Bonnie and Jim chatting and laughing, Elsa puffed up her cheeks in annoyance. "I've never seen Jim chat with a girl like that."

"Me neither. It seems like Jim and her do have that kind of relationship," Kramer said with disappointment.

Elsa was even more upset. "I was the one who met Jim first!"

After saying that, she started walking toward Bonnie.

"What are you doing?" Kramer grabbed Elsa.

"None of your business!"

As Elsa approached, Bonnie was congratulating Jim's grandparents.

The elderly couple liked Bonnie more and more as they looked at her. "Jim, is this the granddaughter-in-law you found for us? The girl is lovely!"

"Grandpa, you've misunderstood. She and I are not what you think we are. We're just good friends."

Kramer followed Elsa over, and the two heard Jim's words, which made them happy.

"I knew it. It's all a misunderstanding. My Jim doesn't fancy superficial and vain witches like her. But I'm different. I never covet Jim's money. I only care about him as a person."
