I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 858

The initially stunned Ivor grinned. “I knew it. You know me better than anyone else.”

He held Bonnie’s slender waist and pulled her close. “I don’t like any guy who gets too close to you. They should get their own fiancees or girlfriends. Why do they always swarm around mine?”

“Stop being so dramatic.” Bonnie shoved him aside. “He’s my friend, that’s all. We weren’t doing or thinking anything inappropriate. You just assume those things.”

Ivor remarked, “Although you don’t think that way, you can’t guarantee they don’t harbor impure thoughts about you.”

“So what if they do, Ivor? Are you seriously intervening in my social life? If we’re together, we must trust each other instead of whatever you’re doing now. You’re trying to shackle me over something unreasonable.
