Bonnie immediately frowned upon hearing this voice.
She and Sean lifted their heads in unison and suddenly realized that there was a person sitting on the stone bench in the corner of the garden.
Even though it was dark out and she could not make out his face, Bonnie knew instantaneously that it was Jim, based on the sound of his voice and the cold, unapproachable aura emanating off his body.
However, despite knowing that he was there, she did not feel at all sheepish about what she had just said about him but instead furrowed her brows in disgust. " What are you doing here?"
Was he not supposed to be spending time with his precious Charlotte at this hour?
Why had he appeared in the garden?
Jim could not help sneering when he heard her. ’’Why can't I be here, in the garden of my own house?"
He stood up, strode over to Bonnie, and said coldly, "Besides, I wouldn't have been able to hear Ms. Craig's truthful admission if I hadn't come today."
He narrowed his eyes and stepped closer and closer to her, a dangerous look on his face. "I didn’t know Ms. Craig hated me so much until today."
He sneered. "If you hate me so much, why did you try over and over again to approach me? Why had you been so desperate to get on my children's good sides?"
With that, he reached out, grabbed hold of Bonnie's chin, and forced her to stare straight into his eyes. "Do you have a masochist trait, Ms. Craig, or were you so confident in yourself that you were sure you'd be able to get your hands on me?"
It turned out that she had never been in love with him after all.
If so, why had she cried for him so many times and tried so desperately to get close to him over and over?
Did she think it was some sort of game?
Jim's grip on Bonnie was so tight that she could not help furrowing her brows in pain. She struggled against his grip and exclaimed, "Let go of me, Jim Landry!"
Jim was infuriated by this. He turned around =a.
