I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 802

Meanwhile, Bonnie stared at the ravine from the cliff, her brows furrowed. She said, “No wonder Shane and his men didn’t chase us. It turns out this path leads to a cliff.”

Ivor said solemnly, “Let’s calm down and search for another way out. We’ll be fine.”

Jim added, “Stay hopeful. If we can’t find another way out, we’ll deal with them first and escape later. Your itchy powder dealt with at least half of their men. If we push back hard, we might create an opening to escape.”

He knew Shane came prepared this time as the men the latter hired were highly formidable. Even Jim had trouble fending them off. However, half had fallen to the itchy powder, so Jim’s plan was viable.

Ivor agreed with Jim. The former looked sideways at Bonnie and asked, “What do you think? Should we turn back now? Fighting them on this cliff isn’t ideal if they find us.”

Bonnie was about to respond when she heard Shane’s triumphant voice, “Don’t worry about that. We’re here.”

She looked toward the voice, only to see Shane and Tom bringing over twenty men to form a perimeter around the cliff. Soon after, they closed in on the trio.

‘These guys must’ve stood in the back earlier. That’s why the itchy powder didn’t reach them.’

Ivor looked around and calmly stood before Bonnie. Then, he glanced at Shane and tried to negotiate, “You’re only going against me because you want to be the wealthiest person in Pyralis. I’ll willingly give you that title and even throw in half of my company’s collaborations.”

His offer sounded tempting, but Shane had been a fool one too many times. There was no way he would believe Ivor again. “Ivor, do you think I’m an idiot? What makes you think I buy your bullshit?”

Ivor replied indifferently, “I’m a man of my word. I’ve never broken my promises. I can’t help it if you don’t believe me, but you only get one chance. If you don’t use it well, you’ll regret it.”

Shane smirked, saying, “You’re forgetting something. You three are at my mercy now because we outnumber you. I can do whatever I want. You can’t negotiate with me.”

“Oh? What makes you so sure I can’t?” Ivor asked casually, but his arrogance was unmistakable.

Shane dared not tell his men to attack because he felt intimidated. He could only stare at Ivor and ask, “What do you mean?”

Ivor brushed the debris off his suit and aggressively approached Shane. Jim was about to follow, but Bonnie stopped him and whispered, “Don’t worry.”

Jim was stunned, wondering why she said something like that. Meanwhile, Bonnie read his expression and knew his thoughts. She smiled, saying, “You’re forgetting something. He’s the head of the Knight family and the most ruthless man in Pyralis.”
