I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267

Mairi’s back wasn’t exactly broad. She was quite slender. However, she stood before Bonnie and shielded her as Daken did a while ago.

“Avril and her family are kind souls.‘ Bonnie thought to herself.

That said, Mairi was insinuating Lorna’s parents didn’t raise her well. Murray and Kirsty’s face turned red from fury. “Don’t you think you’re a little harsh, Mairi?”

“Harsh? Look who’s talking. Don’t you think Lorna spoke rather harshly earlier? She had always been arrogant and impolite. She also doesn’t show any respect to those older than her under normal circumstances. At first, I thought she was young. So, I let it slide and didn’t say anything.

“Do I need to remind you what the occasion is today? It’s my fiftieth birthday, yet she continued to run her mouth off before me! You don’t see my daughter doing the same thing before you guys!”

Murray and Kirsty didn’t have a good comeback for that. Mairi was right. It was her birthday. There was nothing they could say to excuse his daughter’s behavior.

“Hehehe…” Kirsty forced a smile on her face and said, “Yeah. You’re right. Lorna was in the wrong this time.”

Lorna’s eyes widened. “Mom…”

“That’s enough, Lorna. Knock it off. You’re an adult now. That means you have to mind. the way you carry yourself. Remember, we’re here to celebrate your Aunt Mairi’s birthday. Speaking of, didn’t you prepare a gift for her? Hurry up and give it to her.”

Still pissed off, Lorna produced a gift and handed it to Mairi. “I saved for a long time to buy this gift for you, Aunt Mairi. I’m aware that you’re not feeling well. So, I bought this for you. It’ll help.”

“Fine. Thank you.” Mairi took it and gave it to Avril.

Avril opened the box and checked on it. She mumbled, “What a tiny ginseng. Moreover, it doesn’t look like it was grown in the wild. That means it’s not worth much. How big of a fool does she think we are? My mom could drop dead the moment she ingests it.

Bonnie took a look at it and formed her judgment on the ginseng.

“This ginseng is cultivated artificially for less than three years. It won’t take Mom’s life

away, but it won’t help her, given her current condition.”

Avril regarded her puzzlingly and asked, “How do you know so well about Mom’s current condition?”

“I took the opportunity to check her pulse when she held my hands earlier,” Bonnie explained.

Avril’s eyes widened in surprise. “Do you have medical knowledge as well?”

“Yeah. I know enough to get by. I want to check her pulse properly when the party’s over.” Bonnie had long heard that Mairi was very weak. So, she brought her trusty medkit with her when she came.

“Are you good at this?” Avril had massive respect for her right now.

Bonnie remained quiet for a couple of seconds before she leaned into Avril’s ears and said, “Are you going to believe me if I tell you I’m the miracle doctor who treated the mother of the SR League’s owner?”

Avril nodded solemnly. “I sure do. That reminds me, I have a secret for you too.”

“What is it?”
