I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1308

“You don’t need to tell me that, Billy.” Considering how Falcon looked at “Bonnie,” he no longer kept up his guard around her. “Barrett and I just survived a life-threatening situation. I’ll never be suspicious of him again.”

“I’m glad you finally see it that way.” Billy realized things were going well between Bonnie and Falcon, so he planned his next step.

‘They’re much closer now, meaning they can work better together. Falcon and Barrett are computer geniuses, so I believe we’ll hack the chip in no time, especially with their combined strength. It won’t be long before I can rule over all international organizations.’

Billy was excited and could not stop smiling. Falcon noticed it and asked curiously, “Why do you look so happy?”

The former stopped smiling and said, “I’m pleased to see you and Barrett safe. Why else would I be smiling?”

Then, he waved and ordered his men, “Let’s return to our base. Remember to stay quiet. We don’t want those Nidhoggs coming back.”

Bonnie’s eyes sparkled subtly when she heard that. She feigned concern and asked, “The Nidhoggs have already found our base’s perimeters, right? I don’t think it’s safe for us to go back now.”

Billy raised his chin and said triumphantly, “It’s only the perimeters. I built some secret areas at the heart of my base. Otherwise, they would’ve invaded the place entirely. How else could I have gathered my men to come and rescue you two?”

The secret areas were his trump card. Initially, he did not want Falcon and Bonnie to know about them, but Falcon made a fine point. Billy and his organization had survived a dangerous situation.

‘We’ve become closer and know each other more deeply now. I guess I can tell them such secrets.’

“You mean you have secret tunnels and stuff?” Bonnie was surprised. She thought Billy had revealed everything he had in his base and did not expect him to have such a trump card. Bonnie realized how cautious he was.

That said, she thought there was nothing spectacular about Billy. After all, he was about to show her the deepest secret about his base.

‘I only needed to let a bullet graze my skin to get such valuable information. That was worth it, all right.’

“Yeah,” Billy was about to say something but realized he could not explain everything to the duo yet. So, he waved and said, “You’ll see when we get there. I don’t know how to explain it properly.”

“You got it, Mr. Billy.” Bonnie gestured. “Please lead the way.”

Billy nodded and took his men to the secret tunnels. While Bonnie and Falcon followed leisurely, the latter grumbled, “I’ve been in this organization for a while now and didn’t even know about these secret areas. Billy’s such a secretive guy.”

Bonnie wanted to show her understanding because she did not want to offend either of them. She said, “Mr. Billy’s running a massive organization. It’s only natural for him to be cautious. He also didn’t abandon us. All we have to do now is follow his lead and forget about the rest.”

Falcon was surprised she could see things so clearly despite her young age.
