“I guess you’re right…” Gunnar said.
Then, he looked at the sandalwood gift box in her hands.
“I think we gravely misunderstood her, honey. It looks like she’s quite nice.”
Sydney nodded in approval. “Yeah. After what happened today, I also think she’s a decent lady.”
Both of them were talking when they suddenly heard Flynn's voice say, “I told you. Bonnie is the most awesome person in the world. You guys didn’t believe me and kept pitting yourself against her. Do you regret your actions now?”
Flynn thought to himself, ‘Bonnie charmed Mom with her sheer charisma. I have yet to tell them that she’s none other than the world-renowned Ms. Bonita! They will be shocked and wracked with such intense guilt.’
“I do. I regretted the fact that I used to treat her that harshly.” Sydney sighed lightly. “She’s so generous and forgiving. I have a lot to learn from her.”
Gunnar patted her hand, trying to comfort her.
“If she’s willing to give you the million-dollar necklace, it means she has moved on from the past. We both know that we’ve misunderstood her. So, let’s wipe the slate clean and make it up to her in the future.”
Sydney sighed again. “I guess that’s the best thing we can do.”
Back in the Knight Villa, Bonnie had just finished taking a bath when she received a call from Collin.
