I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 1258

“You don’t have to worry about a thing. I know not to overstep my bounds, Billy,” Falcon said coldly. He had considered things from different angles, but nothing seemed right about Barrett. Falcon wanted to keep testing “Bonnie” until he was satisfied.

“Okay,” Billy replied and waved. “You’ll be in charge of tonight’s party. I refuse to get involved in planning it.”

“Why, though?” Falcon was puzzled. “Don’t you want to know if Barrett’s a spy?”

Billy squinted, his eyes sparkling with wisdom. “I’ll take a back seat and let you handle the party.”

Falcon understood Billy’s intentions and became excited. “I feel a little better now that you’ve said that. I’ll give it my all and do things my way.”

Billy glanced sideways at him and said dryly, “I won’t intervene since you claim to know when not to cross the line.”

“You can trust me, Billy.” Falcon nodded solemnly. “I appreciate your faith in me. I won’t disappoint you.”

Billy waved. “Mhm, you can leave now.”

Once Falcon left, Francesco asked, “Are you sure about this, sir? Why won’t you check on his progress? We might lose someone as multi-talented as Mr. Barrett because of Falcon’s recklessness.”

“That won’t happen,” Billy replied confidently.

“That’s a given.” Billy looked at his assistant disdainfully. “I’m not like you. You’ve been working for me for so long, yet you’re still an airhead who hasn’t acquired any of my wisdom!”

Realizing Billy was genuinely displeased, Francesco lowered his head embarrassedly, saying, “You’re such an intelligent person, Mr. Billy. No matter how hard I try, I can never be as wise as you.”

Although Francesco was dense sometimes, he had a way with words. Billy sighed and said, “That’s enough. Go and complete the tasks I’ve given you. We mustn’t let the Nidhoggs or the Dark Knights discover where we are before we crack the chip!”

“Right away, sir.” Francesco nodded before leaving.

Meanwhile, Billy muttered, “Falcon and Barrett are skillful. I should add them to my ranks. They might become my best henchmen and conquer the world for me. Hahaha!”
