Ivor knew that Bonnie would be angry about this matter. He was apprehensive about it. He constantly pondered in his mind how to explain this to Bonnie properly.

Now, seeing Bonnie even angrier than he had imagined, panic instantly occupied his heart. He gripped her hand tightly, fearing that his hard-won wife might leave if he let go. "Honey, I can explain this matter. Don't be angry. Sit down and listen to me carefully."

Bonnie scoffed coldly. "You always lie to me. How do I know if what you tell me is the truth?"

"I can guarantee that what I say is true. If I tell a single lie, I'll be struck by lightning and die!" Ivor raised his hand to swear, his expression unusually serious.

Bonnie furrowed her brows and pressed down his hand. "Alright, who curses themselves like that?"

Ivor saw Bonnie's reaction, and his face lit up with a smile again. "Honey, I knew you'd feel sorry for me."

Bonnie rolled her eyes. "Hurry up and explain to me what you lied to me about."

"Come, let's sit over there on the sofa, and I'll slowly explain it to you," he said as he led her to sit down with him.

Ivor then systematically explained everything about the dispute with the Gemedia Group, the sponsorship bid for Phoenix Jewelry, and the search for Finley.

"Honey, the reason I didn't tell you about these things is that I didn't want you to worry while you're busy. Besides, these are minor issues, and I can handle them myself without troubling you."

"So? To avoid troubling me, you stayed up late working overtime without telling me the truth? Are you dumb?" Thinking of Ivor's tired appearance from working overtime, Bonnie felt distressed. Upon hearing this, Ivor couldn't be happier. "Honey, are you concerned about me?"

"What? Am I not allowed to be concerned about you? Only you can be concerned about me?" Bonnie found this man's foolishness adorable.

Ivor smiled even more. "My honey is the best." With that, he leaned over and planted a deep kiss on Bonnie's cheek.

Bonnie pushed him away with a look of disdain. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why are you like this? Just talk! I think you're perfectly fine and don't need me to worry about you."

"Of course I need it. Your concern is what I've always longed for-rare and precious." Ivor hugged Bonnie tightly, unwilling to let go.

Bonnie gently patted his arm, seeing that he still hadn't let go, so she just let him be. "Forget it. I won't waste time talking nonsense with you. Let's talk about some real business next. What are you going to do about Finley?"

Ivor's expression turned dark. "I forgot to tell you something earlier. The Gemedia Group has already found Finley. I just sent Floyd to investigate her whereabouts this morning to see if we can persuade her to come over."

"What?" This news stunned Bonnie for a moment.

After reacting, she raised her delicately arched eyebrows and said, "There's no need for you to persuade her. It's useless."
