Chapter 2006 The night grew darker.
Perhaps due to their exhausting journey to Merchant City and the commotion ever since their arrival, it was surprisingly difficult to coax Shelly to sleep that night.
Bonnie had to coax and soothe her for a long time before finally getting Shelly to sleep.
By the time Bonnie placed Shelly back into her crib and confirmed that she had indeed fallen asleep, it was already past 10 o’clock.
When Bonnie opened the door, she discovered that Harvey had fallen asleep on the couch, still clutching his phone
Bonnie sighed, walked over, and took his phone from his hand.
His text conversation with Nigel was left open on the screen.
(Nigel, no matter what happens, I will find a way to make Bonnie get back together with Mr. Jim.
[I don’t think I’ll ever be happy again unless she becomes my new Mommy.)
Tears slid down Bonnie’s cheeks as she read these words.
She lowered her head to stare at Harvey, sleeping soundly on the sofa, and suddenly felt as though someone had stabbed her in the heart.
After a long time, she finally let out an exhale, placed Harvey’s phone aside, and gently laid a blanket over him.
Then, she turned to glance out the phone.
At this moment, Sean was sitting on a stone bench in the garden, talking on the phone.
She could faintly hear the gentle sound of his voice as he talked to the person on the other end of the line.
When she saw this, Bonnie could not help feeling a little lonely.
It seemed that…everyone had someone to love and love them back.
However, she had no one except Harvey and Shelly, who were not even blood-related to her.
Not only that, but Bonnie could not imagine any man treating her as kindly as Sean had.
In a split second, loneliness and solidarity enveloped her entire being.
She let out a sigh and turned around. After picking up her jacket, she let herself out of the back | door and followed the path out of Landry Mansion’s backyard.
