Bonnie lazily yawned and found a comfortable position leaning against Ivor’s chest. “You can speak now.”
Ivor gently twirled her hair, saying, "I heard that the new president of Pyralis University made a speech today. Did you see her? What kind of person is she?"
Bonnie glanced at him, then raised her delicately arched eyebrows, her tone tinged with a hint of teasing.
"You're still as interested in this president as ever."
Ivor nodded, openly admitting his thoughts.
"Of course, she's the president of Pyralis University. Building a good relationship with her would greatly benefit my family’s future development."
Bonnie shook her head and commented, "You're greedy. You partnered with my research institute and dismantled the Gemedia Group. Now your family’s position in Pyralis is as stable as Mount Everest. It's better to develop steadily, yet you want to reach the sky in one step?"
"You're right. I am greedy enough to turn everything of yours to mine, including your hair," Ivor said, picking up a strand of Bonnie's hair that fell on her cheek and sniffing it lightly.
He was so cheesy that it made Bonnie's skin crawl. She pushed Ivor’s away and said, "Stop it. Stay away from me, or I’ll punch you!"
"Honey, what did I do wrong? Why do you want to hit me?" Ivor pretended to look pitifully at Bonnie.
Bonnie's twitched helplessly. "That's enough. Don't act anymore, or it'll be overplayed."
Ivor blinked his ink-black eyes slowly.
"But Honey, I'm not acting. These are all from the bottom of my heart—"
Before he finished speaking, Bonnie quickly reached out to cover his mouth and gave him a warning glare with her eyes.
