“Why are you looking at me like that? Were you badmouthing me to Bonnie?” Ivor squinted at Avril, trying to figure her out.

A chill ran down her spine, and she stammered, “N-Not at all! Why would I do that? I-I was just telling Bonnie how wonderful you are and that she should cherish what she has. After all, she’ll never find anyone as perfect as you. Yeah, that’s what we were talking about earlier.”

Bonnie glanced at Avril but did not expose her lies.

“Sure! I’m looking forward to it. Make sure it’s a super nice gift, okay? I won’t accept anything less than that!”

Trina watched as Ivor approached the venue. Her brows furrowed as she said, “It’s him.”

“Who’s that? Do you know that handsome man?” her friend asked.

“Even though I’ve seen him several times, I don’t know who he is.”

‘What’s he doing here? I think I saw him with Bonnie a minute ago. That reminds me—Mom received a call during the summer solstice.
