Chapter 183
Bonnie replied truthfully, “My parents brought him here. They just arrived today.”
When she mentioned her parents, Ivor knew she was referring to her foster parents from the countryside.
“Oh, your parents are here, too? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I would’ve gone to pick them up myself.”
“They’re my parents,” Bonnie emphasized indifferently.
“Same thing,” Ivor said smilingly.
Once again, Bonnie was astounded. “Weren’t you supposed to meet that miracle doctor for your grandma today? Would you have had the time to puck my parents up if I told you?”
“She’s our grandma, Bonnie,” Ivor smirked.
Bonnie no longer knew how to deal with Ivor’s insinuations. “Can’t we have a decent conversation? If not, I’ll hang up.”
Ivor hurriedly said, “Fine! Sorry, I’ll behave, okay?”
Benedict observed how his sister and Ivor interacted and guessed his suspicions were correct. Indeed, the duo had a special relationship.
“The doctor texted me earlier and said there will be a delay. She should be here soon. I’ll come and find you once she’s here to look after Grandma.”
“No need. You can care for your grandma while the doctor’s there. I still have things to do. I’m hanging up now,” Bonnie said. After all, she had planned to visit Winnie later anyway.
“All right, I’ll see you later then.” Ivor’s voice was low and gentle, exuding a warm affection.
It made Bonnie’s heart flutter. She cleared her throat and quickly hung up the phone.
At the hospital, Winnie smiled at Ivor and said, “Bonnie’s perfect. You better cherish her, got it?”
