I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1072

Sydney was at a loss for words. She only managed to find her voice moments later. She said tremblingly, “B-But this is too expensive!”

She did not expect Bonnie to buy her the necklace. After all, Sydney could never afford to pay that much for anything. She had to admit she saw a side of Bonnie she never knew was there. To say Sydney was surprised was an understatement.

“What’s wrong with that? It’s a gift, and the value doesn’t matter. It’s the thought that counts, after all,” Bonnie smiled as she spoke, accentuating her sincerity, “I’m married to your nephew, which makes me your family. It’s only right that I buy you something nice.”

Sydney finally realized she had made a grave error in misjudging Bonnie. Although the former was Bonnie’s aunt, Bonnie was much more mature.

Sydney stared at Bonnie guiltily and said, “I owe you an apology. I shouldn’t have been so nasty toward you.”

The former realized she had treated Bonnie too harshly, even though Bonnie had never done anything to hurt her. Sydney finally realized she was the narrow-minded and petty woman between them.

“It’s okay. Like I said, we’re family. What kind of in-law would I be if I held a grudge over every little thing?”

Sydney thought Bonnie made an excellent point. The former regretted pitting herself against Bonnie. After all, Bonnie was an elegant young lady, and they would have gotten along famously if they had no bad blood between them.

‘I finally understand why Flynn kept speaking so highly of Bonnie. Just her bearing is something most can only hope to have. Flynn must be impressed with her charisma. That’s why he keeps praising her.’

Bonnie could tell from Sydney’s expression that the latter had realized her mistakes. That alone told Bonnie she did the right thing in helping Sydney win against Angela.

Bonnie saw Angela from the corner of her eyes. The latter was still standing beside Sydney, looking dazed. A moment later, Bonnie’s expression turned cold as she questioned, “Angela, why are you still here? Are you looking for a chance to mock my aunt again?”

Angela was furious but knew she was no match for Bonnie. The former could only swallow her pride and shake her head, saying, “Th-that’s not what I’m doing!”

“You better not,” Bonnie scoffed and added, “I hope you remember what I said, or I’ll have to tell my husband what happened today.”

Although Angela loved boasting about her status to Sydney, she could only do that to those at the tea party. She wouldn’t dare be as reckless if anyone threatened to affect her husband or his family’s business.
