I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1015

The accomplice’s eyes lit up when he heard Falcon’s claims. The former said, “You have a backup plan?”

Falcom grinned cunningly. “You’ll find out soon enough.”

Meanwhile, Bonnie led Ivor through layers of traps until they reached the villa’s backyard. The area was overgrown with weeds, obscuring the view of what lay beyond.

Ivor glanced ahead and analyzed the situation while rubbing his chin. “I think Falcon might be on the other side. Let’s head over right away.”

He was about to step forward when Bonnie hurriedly stopped him. “Wait! Don’t take another step! Back up!”

Ivor stopped mid-step and withdrew before moving closer to her side. “Are there more traps here?”

He had assessed the terrain and saw no suitable places for traps, so he felt confident about proceeding. However, he did not expect Bonnie to stop him. Her following words caught him off guard. “Yeah, there are traps here. They could blow you to pieces if you’re not careful.”

Ivor raised a brow. “How so?”

She looked proud and confident as she raised her brow, asking, “Do you think your knowledge of traps surpasses mine?”

Ivor had to admit he could not argue with her expertise. “All right, I’ll leave it to you and watch you from behind.”

“Step back a little so you don’t get in the way,” Bonnie instructed.

He grew curious and puzzled as he stepped back and watched Bonnie pull out a knife. She held it tightly and turned as if she was about to stab him.

Ivor was startled as he took several more steps back. “What are you doing?!”

His voice had a hint of coldness, showing his genuine alarm. Bonnie looked at him in puzzlement and asked, “What are you doing? Did you think I’d stab you?”

Ivor realized he might have overreacted. After collecting himself, he said, “No.”

Although he was wary of her, he could not admit it for fear of damaging their business relationship and his interests.

Bonnie noticed it but did not expose him. Instead, she asked, “ Do you have a knife to lend me? I need another one. I’ll return it when I’m done. Don’t worry. We’re in this together, and I won’t jeopardize your safety.”

Ivor frowned, hesitant if he should hand over his knife.

‘Maybe I should tell him I don’t have one.’
