I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 658

Ivor guessed the surprise, making his eyes sparkle even more. “Are you going to kiss me, Bonnie?”

“There you go again with your imagination.” Bonnie rolled her eyes in exasperation. “Just close your eyes, or I won’t give you your surprise.”

Ivor hastily replied, “Okay, fine! I’ll close them now.”

Although he said that, he quipped, “If it’s a kiss, I want you to say it aloud. Don’t be shy.”

She could not help but giggle. “Cut the crap and close your eyes now!”

“All right, I’ll close them for real this time,” Ivor said as he slowly shut his eyes.

“No peeking!” She reminded before turning around and rummaging through her bag. Soon after, she found the exquisite jewelry box in it. She took it and turned to face Ivor, who had his eyes shut. She was pleased with his obedience.

Bonnie smiled as she took his hand in hers. Then, she removed the ring from the jewelry box and put it on his ring finger.

Ivor felt the cold sensation and realized what she had given him. He could not wait to open his eyes and look at it. However, Bonnie still had not told him to open his eyes. So, Ivor strained and suppressed his excitement.

He asked tremblingly, “C-Can I open my eyes now?”

She replied, “Go ahead.”

Ivor trembled slightly. He was a little afraid to open them for a moment.

‘I’m frozen with fear. What if it’s just a dream, and it’ll disappear when I open my eyes?’

Realizing he was motionless, Bonnie patted his shoulder and asked, “Why aren’t you opening your eyes? What are you waiting for?”

Her voice gave him the strength to open his eyes and gaze at the ring. Although Ivor had already guessed it was a ring, he was ecstatic when he finally saw it. He drowned in inexplicable happiness and could not stop smiling.

“Bonnie, am I dreaming? Is this real?” He had no words to describe his excitement. Waves of ecstasy washed over him. Nothing could compare to the happiness he felt at that moment.

“Of course, it’s real. For the record, I’m standing right here. How’s it a dream?” Bonnie traced Ivor’s finger and stopped at the ring. She rubbed it with an uncharacteristic affection in her eyes.

“I designed this ring just for you—the materials, sketch, and final production—everything. You must cherish it and never lose it, Ivor.”
