I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1303

Falcon put his thoughts into action, saying, “I’m sorry for snatching away your phone earlier, Barrett. I shouldn’t have done that.”

Bonnie waved and said forgivingly, “It’s nothing. Also, do I look petty to you? I wouldn’t have saved you if I got mad over something so trivial.”

“I guess you’re right.” Falcon gave her a thumbs up. “That’s what I think of you, Barrett.”

Bonnie giggled and was about to say something. Suddenly, she heard voices from above, “Did you search here yet? Did you see them?”

“I searched this area, but there was no sign of them. They must’ve died from the fall. I think we should stop searching.”

“I hope Falcon’s dead! It’s a shame the unlucky son of a bitch took a bullet for him, though. Still, I think they both fell off the hill and died.”

“Let’s report back. We’ll ask if we can search elsewhere. If we still can’t find them, we’ll leave. We don’t need to waste any more time here.”

Bonnie waited for the voices to fade before looking at Falcon and saying helplessly, “I told you I wasn’t one of them, but you didn’t trust me. You have to believe me now, right? If not, why would they leave me here? They even called me an unlucky son of a bitch.”

Falcon could not help but apologize, “I take the blame. I was too wary, and that made me misunderstand you.”

“It’s okay. What matters is that I’ve proven myself to you.” Although Bonnie said that, those words could not be further from the truth. After all, she planned to fall off the hill with Falcon. She needed to raise the stakes to gain his absolute trust.
