I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 1067

Ultimately, Sydney stopped hiding things from Bonnie. Instead, the former poured her heart out, “We’re not just rivals. We’re wealthy ones! We grew up in the same neighborhood but were so different that we kept butting heads.

“Everyone thought we’d grow out of it once we grew up, but the opposite proved true. The older we got, the more intense our rivalry became. I once ran for class representative in high school, but she just had to get in my way.

“Whenever I tried to buy ice cream, she would buy all the ones I liked. Also, I fell for a guy in college, and Angela was much prettier than me. She also had a way with people and took him away from me. There’s more, but…”

Sydney could talk about her hateful history with Angela for days and would not even be half done.

‘Angela is despicable and has outdone me in every aspect of my life. I can still remember everything she has done to me. It’s been forever, but I still can’t let those memories go!’

Bonnie did not think Angela would bully Sydney to this extent. Deep down, Bonnie sympathized with Sydney.

‘Frankly, Sydney’s rather forthright and wears her heart on her sleeves. She has no intentions to hide her feelings and can’t be bothered to resort to dirty tricks. Ironically, that must be why Angely has been able to outdo her constantly.’

Sydney continued, “The point is, Angela has taken everything I loved. Worse, she has always outdone me. Now, she’s married to the Hardings’ eldest son. They’re from one of the neighboring cities, so she’s better than I am in that aspect.

“That’s not all. Angela has two daughters and a son, all of whom are hugely successful. Her son is one of the best businessmen, and her daughters are immensely talented in various things.”

The more Sydney spoke, the more bitter and jealous she became of Angela.

“Also, Angela wasn’t just boasting about her husband earlier. I’ve met him before, and he dotes on her with all the money and love in the world. You can say he gives her everything she asks for. Gunnar treats me well, but it’s a far cry from how Angela’s husband dotes on her.”
