I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 973

Bonnie decided it was better to forgo the issue concerning the stolen chip. She believed in her subordinates’ capabilities and that they would not let Falcon get too far away.

Collin did not pressure Bonnie. Instead, he said, “Copy that. I’ll make some arrangements to slow Falcon down. I fear he might sell the chip. It’ll be much harder to track it down if that happens.”

“I believe in you, Collin. Do whatever you can for now, and I’ll try to return as soon as possible.” Bonnie rubbed her brows in frustration.

‘I can’t catch a break. It’s supposed to be my honeymoon, yet something disastrous has happened in my organization. Great, now I won’t have peace of mind!’

“Understood, Ms. Bonnie. I’ll get to work now.” Collin hung up the phone.

When Bonnie returned to the room with her phone, she saw Ivor removing his towel. She opened the door so suddenly that he thought she was someone else, making him instinctively cover his private part.

Bonnie could not help but tease him, “Why bother covering yourself? It’s not like I’ve never seen what’s under there.”

Ivor realized she was joking and decided to remain naked. He flung his towel aside and asked, “Do you want to come closer to admire me? I don’t think you can see it well from over there.”

He approached Bonnie and thought she would shy away from him. Surprisingly, she walked right at him. “How can I say no when you want to show me your body?”

She smiled and added, “I won’t just look, either. I’ll touch and feel it, too.”

Ivor was stunned, staring at her with widened eyes. Then, she waved a hand before his eyes and said, “What’s wrong? Did I scare you?”

Her voice returned him to his senses. He saw how forthright he was and moved closer, saying, “I’m surprised at your newfound demeanor. I think I might need a moment to adjust.”

Bonnie grinned playfully and asked, “Is that because I’m straightforward? I seem to recall you saying you love outspoken and forthright women. You weren’t lying, huh?”

Ivor could not decide if he should laugh or cry at that moment. He said, “Don’t get me wrong, honey. I’ve never said such a thing. I love you whichever way you are.”

Bonnie’s smile widened. Then, she followed suit and moved closer, saying, “I should’ve listened to you and let myself go much earlier. After all, you’re my husband, and I can do whatever I want to you.”

‘Bonnie’s so bold now! I’m having a little trouble adjusting to her abrupt change. Oh, no! I think I’m blushing!’

She realized she had stunned him and stepped forward to lift his chin. “Ivor, why aren’t you saying anything? You’re the one who told me not to be embarrassed. So, why are you blushing now?”

Suddenly, Bonnie caressed him. “Mmm, nice abs. I like how it feels when I run my fingers across them. I’ll bet it’ll feel better if you hit the gym more.”

Ivor’s breath became more labored by the second. He held her waist and said, “You’re playing with fire, Bonnie. I don’t know if I can control myself if you keep this up.”
