I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard )
Chapter 623

'What a gorgeous lady! Who is she? How does someone this exquisite even exist? I'm a lady, yet I'm close to having a crush on her. That said, I'm more jealous of her than anything else.' However, she regained her composure and pretended to be polite. "Thank you, miss. I would've fallen to the ground if it wasn't for you."

She said that but was cursing at the lady who saved her.

'If this lady hadn't come out of nowhere and stopped me from falling, I would've fallen into Ivor's embrace. It's all her fault. She ruined my plan.'

It took Bonnie less than a second to see through Eloise's facade and peer into the latter's true colors. Her lips curled into a smile as she scanned Eloise from head to toe with a calm gaze. Eloise couldn't explain it, but Bonnie's stares unnerved her.

Before she could say something, she saw Ivor looking at Bonnie and speaking affectionately. It was the kind of tone she had never been on the receiving end of.

"What brought you here?"

Bonnie gave him a sidelong glance. "What do you think?"

All of a sudden, he was gripped with panic. He said hastily, "Let me explain, Bonnie. It isn't what it looks like!"

"I haven't even said anything. What's gotten your panties in a bunch?" She rolled her eyes at him. Then, she glanced at Eloise, who was in a daze.

Eloise noticed Bonnie's glance. So, she seized the opportunity to ask her the burning question.

"Wh-who are you? How do you know Ivor?"

Pursing her lips, Bonnie asked, "Well. How do you know Ivor?"

Eloise puffed her chest, trying to show Bonnie who was in charge. "I'm Ivor's childhood friend."

Bonnie couldn't help but chuckle. "Does being his childhood friend mean you get to lean on my fiance's chest? What's the matter? Are you trying to be a homewrecker here? Are you cooking up a scheme to steal him away from me? Is that how you're going to tear my family apart?"

At first, Eloise didn't know who she was. However, she was starting to see the truth about how Ivor reacted.

However, she could no longer contain her frustration and jealousy when Bonnie told her that Ivor was her fiance.

She might've harbored a deep hatred and animosity for Bonnie. After all, the latter stole the man she loved from her. She didn't let any of it show on her face.

Instead, she pinched her thighs fiercely while maintaining a calm demeanor. Her eyes turned red, and she immediately put on a pitiful look. "I-It was an accident. Didn't you see how the waiter ran into me earlier?

"Moreover, Ivor and I used to be very close in the past. Here you are, trying to twist something harmless into something so wicked and accuse me of seducing him. Just how ruthless are you?" Everything she said was directed at Bonnie, but she kept glancing at Ivor instead. She wanted to see just how he would react to this whole thing.

To her surprise, he merely remained calm and completely unfazed.

Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and forced tears into her eyes. More and more tears streamed down her cheeks like a broken faucet. No one could've stopped them, no matter what they did. She looked as if someone had done a horrible thing to her. If they didn't know any better, some people would've thought Bonnie was incredibly mean to her.

Eloise's reaction reminded Bonnie of another hypocritical lady in her former family.

'Speaking of, I've met several hypocritical ladies. I've gotten so good at dealing with them, too. What's the big deal having to deal with another one of them? It's a piece of cake.'

She turned her head sideways and blinked at him innocently at the thought.

"Do you think I'm ruthless?"

He responded immediately, "How are you ruthless in any way? As far as I'm concerned, you have the kindest soul in the whole wide world. You're like an angel, bringing hope to the mortals.

"Needless to say, I'm the luckiest of them because I could make you mine for real, and they can't."

He was filled with such adoration for her as he spoke. His tone was nothing but affectionate.

Bonnie's face turned red when she met his gaze and heard his voice.
