Bonnie hated herself for being so loathsome and shameless.
She hated herself for ever dreaming of being together with another man even after she was hurt by Jason.
"Will you marry Bonnie?" asked Luna in a low voice as she sat in the car back to Landry Mansion, staring out the window.
"No," Jim replied impassively. "I've already promised Harvey that I'll only marry his mother."
Luna furrowed her brows upon hearing this. She turned to glare at Jim in the passenger seat. "If you don't intend on marrying her at all, then why did you..."
"I was drunk." Jim rubbed his brows in frustration." Besides, I wasn't behaving normally last night. I've already contacted Christopher, and he'll be coming to Landry Mansion to draw my blood to send to the lab. I suspect I've been spiked."
Luna was amused by this. "Spiked? Didn't you only drink the wine and eat the food with Heather and me last night?”
Jim opened his eyes and gazed at Luna through the rearview mirror. "Don't forget that Heather had insisted on drinking with you last night."
Luna's entire body stiffened. "Are you saying..."
"Luna," said Jim in a cold voice. "If I had really been spiked last night, it was all because I was trying to protect you. If Heather was the one who had attempted to spike your drink last night, what do you think she's trying to achieve?"
All of a sudden, Luna felt her head buzz. She bit her lip. "But...the wine last night...Heather..."
"That's why we have to go back now and check on Heather. If everything went well, then she must've had a rough night as well."
Luna bit her lip and finally understood everything that had happened.
She wrung her hands together nervously.
The injury that Bonnie had suffered...was all because o f her...
Luna closed her eyes and said with a guilty expression on her face, "If I had known you were spiked, I wouldn't have brought you to Bonnie's place a t all... You and Bonnie..."
Jim turned to gaze out the window. "I've already told her I’ll take responsibility for my actions. Apart from love and marriage, I’ll give her anything I can."
