I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 453

“Bonnie, I never intended to underestimate your fighting abilities.”

“I know, so you must have confidence in me. Also, we’re in the countryside, and Ivor’s bodyguards are patrolling near the village entrance. They’ll spot trespassers from a mile away. I want you to relax today. Nothing’s going to happen.”

With that, Bonnie poured Jim a big glass of wine and raised her glass to toast to him. “To you, Jim.”

“All right!” He let down his guard and concerns thoroughly. He raised his glass, clinked it with hers, and downed it.

“You’re an excellent drinker, Master Jim! I’d like to toast to you, too!” Gerald was thrilled that someone like Jim was willing to drink with the family. The former raised his glass and downed its contents.

Soon after, all of Bonnie’s family members approached Jim and drank with him. After drinking several glasses, Bonnie felt sorry for him.

‘He must have drank like a whale. I wonder how long he’ll be passed out for.’

Suddenly, Ivor leaned closer to Bonnie and said, “What were you and Jim whispering about earlier? Can you tell me about it? For the record, I’m not jealous of him.”

Bonnie could not be bothered to continue this topic. She clinked her glass with his and said, “How about we toast to each other?”

Ivor smiled, asking, “How about we drink from each other’s glasses instead?”

Bonnie rolled her eyes at him and was about to down her wine when he suddenly linked arms with her and drank out of her glass. He grinned at the stunned Bonnie and said, “It’s your turn!”

She realized what had happened and immediately withdrew her arm. However, Ivor trapped it instead.

“Let go of me right now. How shameless can you be?” Bonnie said hushedly and looked around, blushing. Fortunately, everyone was busy drinking with Jim, and no one saw what had happened between her and Ivor.

He smirked and said, “Hurry up and drink out of my glass, or I won’t let go until you do. We’ll stay like this longer than we have to if you keep fighting me. Now, that’ll be embarrassing.”

Bonnie was so mad that she felt tempted to pour his wine over his head. Ultimately, she ensured that no one was watching and downed the wine.
