Chapter 170
Xander wondered if Jim would suspect him to be behind Bonnie’s murder. However, Xavier could no longer bother because he had already prepared for it after posting the request. He had ways to keep himself out of Bonnie’s death.
“Here’s my bank account information.” Bonnie sent the information to Xavier.
Soon after, a crisp ding sounded.
“Your account received a deposit of five billion dollars in Arvandorian currency on July 18th at 22:45.” Satisfied, Bonnie tucked her phone away.
‘Now, that’s how you make money.‘
“That’s half of the agreed amount. I’ll transfer the rest when you’ve completed the task.”
“All right. I’ll give you the good news tomorrow morning.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
The first thing Bonnie did after reaching home was put on makeup. She stabbed her left chest with a trick knife and punctured a fake blood bag all over herself. She even made herself look pale and lifeless with makeup.
There was blood dripping from her lips, and her hair was in a mess. She then snapped a picture of her “corpse” and cleaned up. The first thing the following day, she sent the picture to Xavier and received
the other five billion dollars from him.
At that moment, someone knocked on her door.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me.”
Bonnie heard a deep, charming voice, quickly realizing it was Ivor.
“What do you need?”
“The housekeepers have just finished making the mushroom soup. It’ll nourish your body. I came to serve it to you.”
Bonnie was not hungry earlier, but now that he mentioned it, she felt like she could go for some
mushroom
soup. “The door’s unlocked.”
When Ivor opened the door, the first thing he saw was blood all over his fiance. Immediately after, he dropped the tray to the floor. His eyes widened, and his complexion paled while both his hands trembled. “Bonnie!”
Ivor ran to her and pulled her into his arms, cradling her with the utmost care. “Don’t die, Bonnie! I’m sorry I failed to protect you! Please, don’t go to the light!”
Chapter 170
Initially, Bonnie was utterly confused. Then, she realized her makeup must have misled Ivor. “Hey, I’m-”
“Don’t speak. You must conserve your energy now,” Ivor’s voice was shaky, and his heart ached. He then looked toward the door and roared, “Floyd, get me a doctor now! We’re running out of time!”
Floyd was flustered when he heard Ivor’s blood–curdling screams.
‘What the hell happened?!‘
He raced upstairs and gasped when he saw the scene.
‘Oh my god! That’s horrible!‘
“What are you waiting for?! Hurry up and call for a doctor! I’ll hold you responsible if anything happens to her!”
“Y–Yes, Mr. Ivor! I’ll get on it now!” Floyd ran downstairs.
Jim was patrolling outside the villa when he heard the commotion and ran in. He bumped into Floyd, who was rushing down the stairs. “Floyd, what’s going on?!”
Floyd gulped and responded, “Something terrible happened to Ms. Bonnie!”
“What?!” Jim’s heart pounded wildly.
“Th–there was blood all over her and a knife in her left chest. Th–that’s enough talk. I need to call for a doctor!” Floyd ran ahead, panting heavily.
Jim was shocked as his feet froze. Then, he snapped out of it and raced to Bonnie’s room upstairs. When he reached the door, he saw the “bloodied ” Bonnie and exclaimed desperately, “Ahhh! Who the hell did this to Bonnie?! I’m going to kill them! It must be Xavier! That’s right. It has to be him! I’ll tear his whole family apart!”
Bonnie was about to say something when Ivor cut her off again.
