Chapter 86
Ivor stared at Ged sternly and said, “It’s bad enough that you’re not working and doing nothing with your time. Ms. Bonita, on the other hand, is a national treasure.
“But you ask her to play games with you and disrupt the progress of her research every day. Aren’t you worried that some higher–up will come see you soon?”
Ged was shocked. “W–What?“.
Ivor continued to stare at him wordlessly.
The more Ged thought about it, the more scared he became. Then, he puffed his chest out and raised
his voice.
“Ms. Bonita is an adult. She can make her own choices. Do you think I can stop her when she wants to play games herself? And another thing. She might be the personification of knowledge itself, but she’s also a normal human being!
“Don’t you think she could use the downtime? When I play games with her, I’m entertaining her. Where are you going, Ivor? Wait for me!”
Trina whipped her head around, but Ivor and Ged were long gone.
“Why did you stop all of a sudden?” Hadwin asked, puzzled.
“I think I heard them talking about Ms. Bonita.” Trina said uncertainly.
“You must be mistaken. Come on. Forget about them. I just gave the manager a big bribe. He’s given
me the location of Ms. Bonita’s private room.
“Fantastic! Let’s hurry on over!” Trina was beside herself with excitement.
They reached Bonnie’s private room in no time.
Hadwin stopped a waiter who was leaving the room and said, “Please tell them that a member of the Pyralis University Scientific Research Club is here to see Professor Terry. Her name’s Trina.”
“Um…” The waiter seemed uncomfortable.
“Professor Terry is very fond of her. He even came to talk to her during the nanomaterial press conference. Go ahead and tell him. We’ll take responsibility if anything happens.
Hadwin took off his watch and gave it to the waiter.
The waiter examined the expensive watch. He wrestled with himself and looked at Trina. “Do you really know Professor Terry?”
“Of course! I’m not lying, I swear!”
The waiter decided that she wasn’t lying. And anyway, there was the expensive watch. It was worth a
shot.
So, he went back into the private room and said, “Ms. Trina is outside, Professor Terry. She says she knows you.”
The room, which had been bustling with chatter, became quiet immediately. Everyone trained their gazes on Bonnie and Terry
Terry smiled awkwardly. “Please don’t misunderstand, Ms. Bonita. I’m not related to Trina in the slightest. I’m guessing there was some sort of misunderstanding when I tried to deal with the situation for you at the press conference.”
Bonnie waved her hand and said, “I know that. It’s not your fault.”
She knew what Trina was like. She was so full of herself that her arrogance was out of this world. Bonnie turned to look at the waiter and said, “Don’t let her in.”
“A Alright.” The waiter wasn’t dumb. He could tell Trina had very likely crossed Ms. Bonita in the past. He wanted to curse Trina and her family. She had almost gotten him into huge trouble.
When he left the room, he returned the watch to Hadwin with an unfriendly expression and said, ” They don’t want you guys in there.”
Trina and Hadwin didn’t think much of what the waiter said. They just thought Ms. Bonita wanted to keep a low profile. Maybe she didn’t want anyone to find out her real identity.
“Let’s go, Trina.”
“W–We can’t just leave.”
“What do you mean?”
“Let’s just wait here. We can take a peek when they’ve finished their meal and see what the famous Ms. Bonita looks like.”
