“Really?” Ivor didn’t trust her fully.’I’m happy to be able to talk to Bonnie on the phone, but I can’t shake the feeling that something is off. I couldn’t have dismissed it if I tried.'”Yeah. Do you think I would’ve lied to you over something so insignificant?” Bonnie’s voice was very calm and unfazed.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org – All rights reserved.He remained quiet for a moment and put up a small request.”Can you ask him to say hello to me, then? I’m the science prodigy’s husband. Your new researchers should know who I am. Otherwise, he might not recognize me when I visit your research institute in the future.”‘What on earth is he playing at?’ Bonnie thought to herself, ‘I’ll have to ask Collin to pretend to be the new researcher and have him introduce himself to Ivor.’After all, Collin deserves it. He’s the one who accidentally laughed. Why else would Ivor become suspicious?’ Ads by PubFuture
She cleared her throat and pretended as if there was someone next to her. She said, “Did you hear that, Allen? Come over quickly and say hello to Ivor.”Collin had already wiped the smile off his face. He adopted a respectful attitude immediately and talked to Ivor on the phone.”G-Greetings, Mr. Ivor.””Mm-hmm.” He responded dryly. Then, he asked, “Are you one of the new staff at Bonnie’s new research institute? When were you hired? Also, where’s the place located?”‘Why would he ask such detailed questions? He should’ve asked me about it, not my researcher. Dang it. I’ve underestimated how meticulous he can be!'”Why are you bombarding him with so many questions? Are you trying to do a background check? How do you expect him to give you the answers?” Her tone carried a hint of sarcasm. Realizing that Bonnie was a little upset, he firmly believed that something was wrong. So, he insisted on getting the answers to his questions.”I just asked him three questions. Ads by PubFuture
Also, aren’t these common questions? If he can’t even answerthem, that’d make me wonder if he’s really someone from your research institute.” Ivor was being very straightforward now.’The last thing I want to do is to suspect her. However, there are too many weird things going on for me to ignore.’I still believe that Bonnie would never do anything unfaithful to me. However, I am worried that she’s doing something dangerous and not telling me about it.’She caught his meaning and scoffed, “Tell me, then. Who else could he be if not one of my researchers?””Isn’t this what I’m asking him now? I’ll only know the answer after he answers me. After all, I’m not with you now. I can only relax after my questions are answered.” Ivor asked leisurely. “You don’t mind, do you, honey?” Bonnie heard what he said and fell into deep thought.’Ivor’s very good at speaking. If I tell him that do mind, then it’s going to rouse his suspicion more. He just might become so worked up that and takes a flight back to Pyralis and checks on me. ‘I’m giving him this call to calm him down, so he can focus on his work overseas. I certainly don’t want to unnerve him.’At the thought of it, her tone grew softer when she spoke.
