Chapter 217
Sigmund whacked Flynn’s knee with his cane.
Flynn’s knees bent from the impact, and he fell instantly.
“Damn you, you insolent punk! How dare you hire someone to kill Bonnie? Do you know how big of a trouble you’re in now?” Sigmund was beside himself with rage. He was very hateful of the fact that Flynn didn’t live up to his potential.
On the other hand, Flynn was stunned. It was the first time he saw his grandpa this furious.
“I just don’t get it, Grandpa. Why do you insist on defending her? I’m your grandson, for Heaven’s sake! I know you like her a lot, but you can’t do this to me for her sake!”
“I wish I didn’t have a grandson like you! I would’ve strangled you to death the moment you were born if I had known how you’d turn out to be. You have no idea what you’ve just done!” Sigmund was so furious that his face turned–purple. He continued to whack Flynn with his cane as he bellowed.
Flynn couldn’t take it anymore! The pain was so great that he yelped in pain every time his grandpa
hit him.
“What kind of a spell did that bitch put on you, Grandpa? Isn’t she just a nobody?”
Sigmund’s eyes widened in exasperation. “Wh–what did I do to deserve such an egoistic and witless grandson? Look around you. Do you still honestly think she’s a nobody? Is there a fucking brain cell left in your noodle?”
“Well. I…” Flynn was about to say something when he saw the thousand armed combatants. Then, he whipped his head around and looked at Jim.
At that moment, Jim stood before Bonnie, ready to move if anything threatened to harm her. The entire Arvandor knew Jim was the bodyguard of a certain someone.
Flynn’s jaws dropped when that thought entered his mind. “H–How’s this possible? How could it be her? There’s no way! It can’t be.”
“Finally catching on, huh? You have the same brain capacity as your mom. I objected to it when Gunnar said he wanted to marry Sydney. Her intelligence is questionable at best. Back then, I feared she would pass on her moronic gene to her children. It looks like I was right, after all!”
Sigmund was serious about it. He regretted not shutting down their marriage back then.
Flynn felt as if there was a ringing in his ears. Things began to make sense. It explained why his grandpa did everything to set Bonnie up with Ivor. It was also no wonder Ivor suddenly changed how he treated Bonnie and began doting on her instead.
Gulping, he slowly shifted his gaze to Bonnie. She still looked cold and indifferent, as per usual. However, he no longer regarded her with eagerness or disrespect. In their place, there was fear and
reverence.

Sigmund sighed and looked at her. “Flynn brought this on himself. So, do whatever you want with him, Bonnie. Don’t mind me.”
Bonnie frowned. Sigmund might’ve said what he said, but he did save her and her family. Moreover, he had treated Bonnie well and fairly.
She would’ve let it roll off her back if Flynn had just targeted her, but he had to go and kidnap her brother. Everyone had a button that no one, under any circumstances, should push. For Bonnie, her family was her button.
Noticing how torn up she felt inside, Sigmund sighed again and felt like someone had taken years off
his Rfe.
“I’m sorry to put you in this position, Bonnie. How about this? I’ll kick this poor excuse of a grandson out of the country and forbid him from returning for the rest of his life. What say you?”
She nodded. “Whatever you say, goes, Grandpa.”
“You have my gratitude, Bonnie.” Sigmund meant it from the bottom of his heart. He knew how bad- tempered she was. He also knew she would’ve suffered if she didn’t wield the kind of power and status that she did right now. Not even her brother can leave unscathed if that were the case.”
