I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 406

“What a beauty,” Tanum said as he pulled out a chair for Bonnie, “Have a seat. Would you like something to drink? It’s pretty hot outside, huh? Do you want my seat instead? The air conditioner is right above it.”

“Ahem!” Aya cleared her throat and glanced at her son sidelong.

‘Jeez, Tanum wouldn’t help me with anything even if I asked. Look at him now. He’s already showering Bonnie with care. They’re not even married yet. Who’s to say she won’t disrespect me once they get married?’

“Can I directly address you by your first name?”

Bonnie nodded. “Of course you can.”

“Let’s not waste precious time and cut to the chase. You consider yourself lucky since my son likes you this much,” Aya said arrogantly.

Bonnie’s brow twitched a little as she looked at Lauren.

Lauren chuckled awkwardly. “That’s not the right way to put it, Aya.”

“What’s wrong with what I said? We own this cafe, and Tanum will inherit it. Do you know how much we make monthly? We rake in hundreds of thousands of dollars if you remove the overhead cost.”

Lauren was so envious that she could just cry.

‘Aya earns hundreds of thousands monthly! My family only managed to get that much after working our butts off for decades. We still spend our money very carefully.’

With that in mind, Lauren took a different approach and held Bonnie’s hands.

“Bonnie, we’re countryfolk who don’t have a surefire way to succeed. You only get an opportunity like this because you’re pretty. Once you marry Tanum, you must love your inlaws like your own and listen to everything Tanum says.”
