Bonnie felt slightly overwhelmed by Ivor’s sweet talk, but she was not disgusted. In other words, she did nothing because Ivor was the one who said it. If it were anyone else, she would have beat them up.
She was still in her thoughts when Ivor noticed the closed window. “It’s still bright outside. Why would you shut the window? Wait a minute. You closed the curtains, too.”
At that moment, he also noticed a faint footprint on the floor. Moreover, it evidently belonged to a man. Coldness flashed in Ivor’s eyes as he traced the footprint and realized they disappeared under the bed.
Simultaneously, Bonnie sensed his unusual behavior and noticed the footprints on the
floor.
“This is bad!‘
Jim’s shoes left stains on the floor because it had just rained earlier. Before Bonnie knew it, Ivor approached the bedside. She darted over and blocked him, saying, “I’m tired and need to sleep now. You should probably leave.”
Ivor glared at her and asked, “Are you hiding someone?”
Bonnie’s lips twitched again. “Don’t put it that way.”
“Is it a guy?” Ivor questioned, his voice growing colder.
“It’s not what you think.” Bonnie’s brows furrowed.
He motioned to walk past her and check under the bed, but she spread her arms and stopped him.
“Let me through, Bonnie.” Although Ivor was furious, he could not aim his anger at her. He feared hurting her if he lost his cool.
“You can leave now, Ivor.‘
“I’ve had it, Bonnie! Am I not enough for you?!” Ivor quivered with rage.
“I told you it’s not what you think.”
“I don’t want to hear it! I’ll see who’s hiding under your bed.” With that, he pulled her
aside and lifted the bedsheet, causing it to fall over the edge of the bed.
Chapter 274
While Bonnie grabbed Ivor’s arms to try and stop him, Jim realized they were about to start fighting and crawled out from under the bed.
“I knew it was you!”
Bonnie stood beside Jim and asked, “Why did you come out?!”
Jim shrugged helplessly. “You two might start trading punches if I didn’t. I don’t want you two to have a fallout because of me. Otherwise, I’d become a homewrecker.”
Ivor sized him up and asked, “Who are you, really?”
Jim glanced at Bonnie, saying, “Considering the mess we’re in now, it’d be disrespectful of us to keep hiding the truth from Ivor. What do you think, Bonnie?”
After some thought, Bonnie nodded.
“Perfect.” Jim entered the bathroom and said, “Just give me a minute. I’ll be out before you know it.”
Meanwhile, Floyd heard the commotion and rushed over to check on them. When he arrived, he saw the mess in the room and asked, “Wh–what’s going on here?”
Bonnie glanced at him and said, “We’ve been discovered.”
“What are you talking about-” Before Floyd could finish, he realized something, and hist eyes widened in shock.
‘Do I even need to ask? What else can it be?‘
Suddenly, Floyd began to sweat and tremble when he sensed someone glaring daggers at him. He turned slowly and met Ivor’s burning gaze.
Ivor questioned imposingly, “You knew?”
Floyd gulped, and the bathroom door opened.
