I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 1395

"Haven't you been conducting research here before my arrival, Bonnie? Why does it look like this is your first time in here? Why do you need the researcher to remind you that we've arrived at the institute?"

Ivor looked into Bonnie's eyes with an inquisitive gaze as he asked, but they were crystal clear. On top of that, she remained calm.

"I was talking with you just now… It's your fault. You were so smart-mouthed that you distracted me…"

He stopped looking at her inquisitively and smiled faintly instead.

"You denied it earlier, Bonnie. From the looks of things now, however, you were indeed enchanted by my looks."

Bonnie didn't say anything to him. All she could do was roll her eyes at him. Then, something popped into her mind.

She squinted and asked Ivor, "Why do you keep asking me these weird questions today? Why are you making it sound like I'm not working in my research institute while you were away?"

Ivor felt guilty about that. After all, he had basically interrogated Bonnie based on speculation. He didn't have any hard proof to back it up.

So, Ivor had no idea how to explain himself when Bonnie posed this question to him. In the end, he had no choice but to fool her.

Ivor pretended to be calm and responded, "It's just a harmless question. It's not what you think."

"Really?"

Bonnie narrowed her eyes even further. Obviously, she wasn’t buying it. "Hmm…"

Ivor avoided her gaze and looked at the fittings in her new research institute instead. He seized the opportunity and changed the topic.

"You were right. The new research institute looks the same as your original research institute. It's a carbon copy."

Bonnie asked Ivor that question because she knew he didn't have hard proof for his claim. She wanted to distract him from being suspicious. It seemed she had achieved that.
