Chapter 1080
About eight hours later, Bonnie’s private plane touched down at the Yale international airport.
The moment they arrived at the hotel, one of her men sent word that the leader of the Dark Knights had arrived.
She couldn’t help but raise her delicate eyebrows.
“I’ve barely arrived at Yale. How is it that he learned about it so quickly? Did he send someone to stalk me?”
“I don’t think that’s what he did, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he sent someone to keep an eye on your movements.” Collin responded, “I’ve also gotten news that he had just touched down at Yale.”
At the next moment, a strange feeling rose within his chest again.
‘I just can’t shake the feeling that the leader of the Dark Knights is somewhat similar to Ivor Knight. But that’s just my speculation. I’m not about to say anything until I have a rock-solid proof for my claim.’ Ads by PubFuture
“Oh?” She raised her eyebrow. “What are the odds?”
Leaning back on the couch, she waved at the man who brought this news to her. “Let him in.”
“Copy that.” Her man exited the room swiftly before leading Ivor in here.
“I’ve just touched down at the airport, and yet you’re already here in my hotel room. You’ve been keeping tabs on things, I see.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
His lips curled into a grin when he noticed her inquisitive tone. However, there was no joy in his eyes. “After all, the Nidhogg is one of the major international organizations, and you’re its leader. It’s only normal that everyone has their eyes on you wherever you go.”
It was hard to tell if he was trying to compliment her or make fun of her.
She adopted a profound, meaningful expression and said, “If that’s the case, then you should do your job as the leader of the Dark Knights and welcome me with a red carpet. Otherwise, how will you honor my identity as a leader of one of the major international organizations? Wouldn’t you say?”
‘Geez. He’s quick. I’m quite surprised that he could dish out a sarcastic remark back at me so quickly.’ Ads by PubFuture
Ivor smiled and sat across from Bonnie.
“I’m more than happy to do it if that’s what you want.”
“It’s not about what I want. You’re the one who offered to do it. Don’t you think I would’ve squandered your good intentions if I turned you down?” Her lips curled into a grin, the slight sarcasm in her tone was
unmistakable.
Raising his eyebrow, he chuckled a couple of times.
“You just won’t let up, will you? It doesn’t matter what anyone says, you just have to argue and shut your opponent up. How am I supposed to make friends with you if you’re going to keep this up?”
‘Truth be told, I saw a little bit of Bonnie in the leader of the Nidhoggs. She was just the same when I first knew her. She had such a sharp tongue.
‘I’m not put off or anything. As a matter of fact, I find that people who speak like this tend to have a strong character.’
She glanced at him nonchalantly. “My friends don’t usually come at me with sarcasm.”
A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes. “I’m sorry. If what I said made you feel uncomfortable, then I hope you’ll forgive me.”
‘If this had been another person, then I wouldn’t have give a damn about how he feels. However, I need his help. So, it’s better for me to apologize.
‘It doesn’t have to be anything too solemn, either. What matters is that he gets my meaning.’
