I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 624

‘Gee. He’s gotten so good at romantic talks that he’s making me shy. Anyway, I need to deal with this hypocritical lady. So, I can’t afford to let it show now.’

Pointing at Eloise, she said pitifully, “You say that, but she claimed that I’m ruthless.”

Ivor turned his gaze at Eloise. The affection he had shown Bonnie earlier was replaced with an indifferent coldness.

“We might’ve been close in the past, Eloise. However, despite our friendship, I won’t tolerate you insulting my fiancee. From here on out, if you say anything disrespectful to her, I’ll cut you loose.”

Eloise felt as if someone stabbed her through the heart. The pain was so excruciating that it suffocated her a little.

‘I’ve been in love with Ivor for the longest time here. So, why would he speak up for another lady instead? He didn’t use to treat me this way. It’s too heartbreaking.’

Bonnie shook his arm and put her acting skills to good use. She deliberately spoke in an adorable tone, “Come on, she’s a lady at the end of the day. Don’t be so mean to her.

“The fact is that she only badmouthed me a little. It’s no big deal. I only ask for an apology. Then, I’ll let it go.”

Waves of pleasurable emotions overtook him.

‘This is the first time Bonnie had spoken to me in such an adorable tone. I know she’s just putting on an act, but I can’t deny that it has sparked an overwhelming sense of affection in me.’

“Okay, then.” He flashed her a loving smile. The way he looked at her suggested that he would've had his way with her right there and then if he could.

It wasn’t his fault, though. After all, she was the one who flirted with him.

He gave himself some time to regain his composure. Then, he suppressed his anger before glancing at Eloise coldly. “Did you hear what my fiancee said? I want you to apologize to her now.”

Eloise was so furious that she almost ground her teeth to dust.

‘However, I won’t be able to meet with him again if I don’t apologize to her.’
