I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1075

Sydney felt embarrassed, not wanting to tell her son and husband how much the diamond necklace cost. Instead, she said, “How about you guys guess?”

Gunna and Flynn exchanged glances. Then, the former said, “Six million dollars?”

Sydney shook her head. “That’s too low.”

‘My wife has never been wasteful—six million is a lot of money for her. I can’t believe she bought this for more than that.’

After some thought, Gunnar made a bolder guess, “Is it between twenty to forty million?”

He was worried about his funds when he said that. However, he thought about it from another perspective, ‘Well, at least I’m spending my money on my wife and not someone else. If she did end up spending that much, so be it. I’ll just make more money. What matters is her happiness.’

To his surprise, Sydney shook her head. “Still not close enough.”

“It’s more than forty million?!” Gunnar’s eyes widened in shock. “Don’t tell me you spent seventy million on it.”

She shook her head again before finally revealing the answer, “It costs a hundred and thirty-eight million dollars.”

“Wh-what?!” Gunnar and Flynn were flabbergasted. The latter was sipping his tea when he heard what his mom said. He spat it out immediately after.

“Pfft! Cough, cough, cough!”

Meanwhile, Gunnar was so shocked that he froze. A moment later, he said, “H-Honey, the necklace looks terrific, but it’s not worth that much. Also, we don’t have that kind of money lying around. Where’d you find the money to bid on something like that?

“Did someone set you up or something? Is that why you bid on it with such a ridiculous figure? Was it Bonnie? I’ll go to Dad’s villa right now if she’s behind this!”

“What, no!” Sydney glared at Gunnar. “I wouldn’t have gotten this necklace if it weren’t for her, not to mention stand up to Angela!”

Gunnar gradually realized what had happened. “Are you telling me Bonnie helped you at the tea party? Does that mean she—”

Sydney timidly finished his sentence, “She bought me the necklace as a gift.”

“Gosh, Bonnie’s just awesome! That’s so generous of her!” Flynn immediately praised Bonnie.

Meanwhile, Gunnar was still in disbelief. “Why would she buy you that necklace so suddenly? She must have an ulterior motive.”

Sydney could no longer stand anyone badmouthing Bonnie. The former defended Bonnie, “She spent her money to get me this gift. Why would you say she has an ulterior motive? Will you please stop assuming the worst of her?”
