Ch. 501..510
Chapter 501
Sienna was beaten to a pulp. She hated Bonnie and wished to rip her to pieces, but considering the former’s current situation, she could only yield and apologize to Bonnie.
Sienna got to her knees and bowed, apologizing repeatedly. Meanwhile, Sydney tugged at Gunnar’s sleeve and leaned closer, whispering, “Honey, I think Bonnie’s an upstanding girl.”
“You’re right. I also see why Dad insists on setting her up with Ivor.”
Flynn was within earshot and heard everything they said. He added, “Bonnie’s more than upstanding, Mom. You’ll see how badass Grandpa is when you learn about her real identity. Ivor has won the lottery.”
The couple gazed at him, and one said, “Judging by your tone, you must be hiding something from us. Did you learn some valuable information or something? Is that why you’re suddenly treating her so well?”
“You’re right. I know something but can’t tell you guys.”
“You think you’re tough now? You even learned to keep secrets from us. It looks like you’re itching for a beating!” Gunnar yanked at Flynn’s ear and dragged him outside.
“Ow! That hurts! You’ll rip my ear off! Let go of me!”
“Tell us, now!”
He looked at his father helplessly. “I can’t say anything about it, Dad.”
“A good beating, it is, then!” Gunnar twisted his son’s ear.
“Ouch! You’re going to rip my ear off! Let go! I told you I can’t say anything about it. Not even Ivor knows, Dad. Grandpa also told me not to spill the beans unless Bonnie’s okay with it. Otherwise, he’ll break my legs and chop off my manhood!”
Gunnar could only let his son go. “Are you sure you can’t say anything?”
“Absolutely!”
“All right, then. We’ll know about it eventually. It’s just a matter of time.”
…
Sienna returned to her hotel and smashed everything in her room, shocking her agent, Adele. “Calm down, Sienna. Your grandpa did what he did to preserve your family’s honor. I’m sure he has his reasons for defending Bonnie.”
“I know that! It’s just that Grandpa and the others shouldn’t have treated me so harshly. Bonnie is just an insignificant commoner. Even if the plan is exposed, she couldn’t have done anything to us. After all, we’re the McLeods!”
“I don’t think that’s true. After all, your family carries Arvandor’s reputation on their shoulders. If the commoners learn that you guys mobilized the troops and assaulted an innocent citizen, the implications might be far worse.
“You’re much smarter than me, Sienna. I’ll leave it to you to determine how much worse it could’ve gotten.”
Sienna began to calm down once she listened to Adele’s analysis. The former said, “That explains why Grandpa sided with Bonnie. The Blackburns support her, but that’s only because of Orpheus. There was no need to blow the whole thing out of proportion in the first place.”
“That’s right. That’s why you were so enraged that you couldn’t assess it calmly. Like I said, you’re much smarter and more experienced than me. All you have to do is stay calm. Then, you would’ve seen the inner workings of the whole thing.”
Sienne loved listening to Adele because the latter always knew what to say.
“You’re right. I shouldn’t get my panties in a bunch. I’m not going to let this slide, either. Still, I can’t bulldoze my through it. I can’t afford to mobilize such a big troop to handle this. It’ll just expose me.”
“That’s true. Hey, I have an idea. I can guarantee your grandpa and the others can’t intervene this time.”
“What’s that? Hurry up and tell me!”
Adele smiled menacingly. “Since you’re from the entertainment industry, why don’t you use the tricks you learned and turn your fans on her?
“Use them to turn public opinion against Bonnie. That’ll ruin her reputation and make her the pathetic, despicable wretch everyone loves to hate. It’ll slam her to hell, and she can’t return from that.”
Chapter 502
“That’s an excellent idea!” Sienna was impressed with Adele’s plan. “Let’s do as you said. I’ll make a tweet now.”
“Wait a minute, Sienna. If you do that today, it’ll be like announcing your intention to mess Bonnie up. What’ll your grandpa do to you then?”
Sienna was relieved that she had not jumped the gun. “It’s a good thing I have someone as smart as you around.”
“I’m not smart or anything. You’re just blinded by hatred.” Adele once again complimented Sienna’s intelligence in a roundabout way this time. The former continued, “Stay low for a few days and cancel all your gigs. Make your fans curious about your sudden silence.
“Then, wait until the whole thing festers before publishing a picture of yourself looking pitiful. I’ll hire internet trolls and tell them to turn your fans against Bonnie. That way, you won’t need to say or do anything.
“It’ll look like the fans started it all. That means your grandpa won’t have a reason to punish you, don’t you think?”
“Fantastic! Let’s do that!” Sienna balled her fist and said proudly, “Just wait, Bonnie! You won’t know what hit you when I exact my revenge!”
...
Bonnie spent the next few days tending to her wound. About a week later, she regained her vision and returned to the university the following day.
The school counselor stood at the podium and said, “We have an exchange student with us today. Let’s welcome him.”
No one was particularly excited initially, but the girls lost their minds when they saw the exchange student’s exceptional looks. It took the girls everything they had not to whistle at him.
“Hmm?” Bonnie uttered, bewildered. She was unsure if she was being oversensitive, but she felt the exchange student was stealing glances at her.
The school counselor gave him the floor and said, “Please introduce yourself.”
The exchange student wrote his name on the whiteboard, and Bonnie’s eyes widened in shock. She thought, His name is Keenan Gates! It looks like I wasn’t being oversensitive after all. He’s here because he’s after me!
Meanwhile, Keenan remained silently at the podium. He had not spoken a word since entering the lecture hall. He was so distant and elusive that he unwittingly seduced most of the female students.
“Oh, my! He’s so arrogant that it makes him look so cool! He even has those adorable vampire fangs and a baby face. They make him look years younger than my brother, who’s already in junior high. I can’t stand it anymore. I’m brimming with motherly love now. I must make him my boyfriend.”
The girl’s friend said with frustration, “Motherly love? If that’s the case, you should become his stepmom. What does that have to do with becoming his girlfriend?”
“Who says we can’t shower our boyfriend with motherly love? Is there a rulebook for relationships? Did anyone write such a thing?”
The school counselor felt a little awkward. “Uh, aren’t you going to say something, Keenan?”
He frowned and said, “Can I take a seat now?”
“Uh, go ahead and find a seat for yourself then.”
All of the female students in the hall grew restless.
“Come over here and sit with me, Keenan. It’s a window seat. You’ll get some a nice view here.”
“Maybe you should sit next to me. Everyone’s vying for you, after all.”
Chapter 503
"She's right, Keenan. They're vying for you. Cand sit with me. Don't worry. I have no interest in men at all." When this particular girl said that, the entire lecture hall fell silent. Everyone, including the boys, looked at her strangely and judged her inwardly. Although the girl was thick-skinned, the students' glares irritated her.
Ultimately, she raised a book and hid behind it.
As the pin-drop silence hung over the hall, Keenan left the podium and sat beside Bonnie. That simple action upset everyone.
"Why would he even sit there?" "That's what I want to know!" Suddenly, Avril said, "That's because Bonnie is gorgeous!" The girls disliked how she phrased it, but it was true. Nonetheless, Bonnie turned to look at him and asked, "Reporting for duty?" Keenan bolted upright and yelled, "Yes, m'lady! I'll keep you safe! Nothing will happen to you as long as I'm around!" Everyone was shocked as they gawked at the duo. Even Bonnie was dumbfounded by his sudden reaction. 'I just greeted him out of courtesy. Why'd he have to react like that?' The school counselor took a while to recover from her daze. Afterward, she said, "Take a seat, Keenan." However, Keenan gazed at Bonnie as if he had not heard the counselor's words. The former was the best combatant in the task force, young and massively talented. He was also a rebellious soul. Keenan would not answer to anyone except Jim and a handful of people. Several days ago, Jim called him and told him to protect someone. Keenan rejected the request vehemently because he was uninterested in protecting sfat cat. However, when Jim told Keenan to protect Bonita, the latter quickly packed his things and rushed from the borders to Pyralis.
"Ahem!" Bonnie cleared her throat and said, "Um, Keenan, take a seat." "Yes, ma'am!" He sat at once.
The counselor and the students were dumbfounded yet again. They could not process what they had just witnessed and thought the new exchange student was acting like Bonnie's sidekick.
As the students walked to the cafeteria during lunch break, Avril could not hold it anymore and asked, "Bonnie, who is that guy? Why'd he obey you so strictly?" Bonnie knew Avril would ask such a et thing, but the former had no intentions of making up a story. Bonnie answered, "Jim needed return to his hometown to deal with something. You should know about that. He sent Keenan to protectin his stead for the tbeing." "So, that's what happened!" Avril nodded in understanding and looked at Keenan.
His fair skin made him look like an innocent and helpless bunny. Meanwhile, his five-foot-one stature made it easy for people to regard him as a naive little boy.
Avril leaned toward Bonnie and whispered, "He looks like he can't handle himself in a fight. Are you sure he can keep you safe?" "Don't let him hear what you just
said. Jim toldabout his history.
First, don't be fooled by his innocent ΟΜ and obedient facade He was a N typical troublemaker in the task force and always picked fights with people to hone his skills. Website
"Jim was the only person who could subdue him and command his respect. Secondly, Keenan used to lead a squad on survival training in a rainforest. They didn't take rations or water with them but survived for three months. "The other squads retreated from
the rainforest much earlier than his squad. Most were hurt pretty badly, too. Keenan was the only one who was still bumped and raring to go. It's almost as if he feels at hin the rainforest," Bonnie explained leisurely. That shocked Avril. "I wouldn't have believed this story if someone else toldabout it."
Chapter 504
Avril and Bonnie were about to take their seats and have lunch when Toby and Coleman approached with their food trays.
Three handscollege students, each charming in their own way, sat around Bonnie. All the girls lost their appetites when they saw the group sitting together.
"I just don't get it. I know Bonnie's beautiful, but that's all there is. She has a nasty character while Coleman and the others don't seem to be the superficial type." "I agree. Bonnie must've used wicked means and tricked them." One of the guys said meekly, "If Coleman and the others aren't superficial, maybe Bonnie isn't as nasty as the rumors say." The girls around the guy attacked him, "Are you defending her because you're mesmerized by her good looks?" "That has to be it. All men are the same. You guys can never see what's beneath someone's looks." "Do you think Coleman and Toby are as superficial as you? Bonnie's just cunning with her tricks and whatnot. Just wait and see, someone will expose her for the real bitch she is. Then, she'll beca public enemy." The guy stayed quiet, thinking, 'I just voiced my opinion. Also, I formed my assumption based on logic. That shouldn't warrant a verbal attack like that.' Once classes ended, Keenan followed Bonnie back to Lenfield Resort. The first thing she saw when she entered her house was Ivor in an apron making dinner. She said curiously, "I recall Floyd tellingyou'd be busy with work today." He smiled at her and said, "You got that wrong. I'm not that busy today." His smile turned eerie when he gazed at the person behind Bonnie. Hence, she turned and looked at Keenan. 'Oh, I think I see what's going on here.' "Who's that?" Ivor had eyes in the university and was informed about this Keenan character. That was why he finished his work quickly and had the tto go to Bonnie's place.
Bonnie said, "If I know you well, you would've sent someone to investigate his background thoroughly." "Honey, you do knowbetter than anyone." vor approached Bonnie and sat close to her. When he leaned on her, he felt a sharp and cautious glance.
FindAt that moment, Keenan kept his guard up and stared at Ivor. The former feared Ivor might hurt Bonnie, and he could not afford to take any chances.
Meanwhile, Ivor's eyes filled with coldness as he thought, 'I'm the man of this house. I've shown this punk enough mercy by not kicking him out can't believe he's overstepping and acting so arrogantly.' "Stop callinghoney!" Bonnie felt speechless.
'Keenan's right there! How dare he callthat when there's an outsider in front of us?'
When she pushed him away, he surprisingly grabbed her wrist and said firmlyol need to talk to you. Cwith me." "I'm not going anywhere. You can say whatever you want to say here and now."
Ivor pursed his lips and pulled Bonnie upstairs, not caring about her m thoughts. She scolded, "What's gotten into you, Ivor?! Letgo, now!" "Fat chance." "Hey! If you don't unhandnow, I'll teach you-"
Before she could finish, she felt a gush of wind behind her, It would not take a genius to figure out who it En.
was.
Chapter 505
Keenan charged upstairs and gripped Ivor's wrist. "Let her go." Ivor was already furious, but his rage grew. "Do you have a death wish?!" "It's my mission to keep her safe. You will let her go." Keenan pitted himself against Ivor without a hint of fear.
They were on the verge of fighting. It would only take a slight trigger for disaster to follow. Bonnie knew they would start fighting if she just stood there. She said, "That's enough. You're both adults, so stop acting like children." Keenan said stubbornly, "He needs to let go first." Ivor's expression grew increasingly menacing, and the air around them felt colder. Meanwhile, Bonnie felt a headache forming as she looked at Ivor and said, "Just letgo." "Why don't you ask him to let go? Why should I let go first? We'd known each other long before he arrived, Bonnie. Don't you think you're being unfair to me? I've never brought a woman back to my place and never will. "Good on you for taking a pretty boy back to your place. He's even trying to take my place as the man of the house. Ged was right. You've rejectedbecause I'm not your type. Instead, you love cute and clingy guys like him." "I'm not cute. You're cute!" Keenan was beside himself with rage.
After sthought, Bonnie said, "Don't you think he's more sullen and domineering?" "Does that mean he's your type?" Ivor squinted at her menacingly.
However, Bonnie did not respond directly. Instead, she said, "I seriously don't know how to communicate with you." "Oh, but you can communicate with someone like him?" Bonnie was beyond speechless. After taking a deep breath and calming down, she said, "Leo wantedto make amends for the incident concerning Sienna. So he dispatched one of his task force members to keepsafe for now." "Are you sure about that?" "Here, I'll call Leo now and ask him if you don't believe me." Bonnie was confident Leo would play along, given how wise he was.
Ivor stared into her honest eyes and decided he could only believe her. "Fine, but does this guy have to protect you like this? I have plenty of highly capable bodyguards. I can always choose the best among them to protect you. I'll tell Floyd to keep you safe if I have to Website "I'll ask for your help when I'm desperate. You know how I am and that I don't like being followed. As for Keenan, I have no say in it. Leo said he'd be my bodyguard and followif I didn't accept Keenan.
"What am I supposed to do about that? I can't let an older man like Leo followall day. People who don't know any better might think I'm sbig shot because a retired general is my bodyguard." Bonnie's explanation was so flawless that vor could not retort.
Finally, he said, "Fine, I'll accept that this guy will protect you for now.
Still, he's a guy, and you must set sboundaries. Will he quard your bedroom door when you're steeping?" "That's not necessary!" Keenan retorted.
Ivor glanced at him sidelong, exasperated as he thought, 'At least this punk knows his boundaries.'
However, Keenan was not done talking. "I'm her bodyguardd can't just guard her bedroom door. I must watch over her by her bedside."
Suddenly, a menacing air spread throughout the villa. Ivor said i looks like you have a death wish, after all." Keenan said fearlessly with a raised chin, "Death doesn't scare me. I've survived worse in the past."
Chapter 506
"You've got to be afraid of something?" "I've been an orphan ever since I was young. I've got no family or friends. All I had to do was look after myself. What was there to be afraid of? If anything, I'm scared of failing my mission and having the rest of the troops laugh at me." 'This is the first tI've encountered someone this tricky. I have a hunch Keenan doesn't think of Bonnie that way. He is just trying to keep her safe.
'That's the only reason I'm letting someone as insolent as him keep breathing.' "I've had it up to her, guys." The more they argued, the worse her headache got. 'I think I know why Jim picked Keenan to take his place. He's quite a skillful fighter, but more importantly, he's as stubborn and headstrong as Jim.' "You don't have to stay in the sroom aswhen I'm sleeping, Keenan, nor do you have to guard my bedroom door. You can stay in the room next to mine or across the hallway." "I can't do that. If we lived in different rooms, it would impede my ability to save you. What happens if you're in a pinch if I can't get to you in time? Is it because you don't believe in my integrity?" Then, he raised three fingers and swore an oath. "I swear I won't harbor any dirty thoughts toward you. If I so much look funny at you, then may the Heavens send down a great thunderbolt and strikeso I may die a horrible death." "That's not enough." Ivor chimed in, "You're not bothered by death. So, why would you be afraid of a thunderbolt? Or, for that matter, why would you be bothered by a horrible death?" "Well. What would you haveswear?" Ivor pondered on it and directed his gaze downward as he stared at Keenan. "Let's do this the right way. If you have dirty thoughts about Bonnie, then you won't be able to get it up anymore. How about that?" Keenan remained quiet for a few seconds.
"How's that the right way to do it?" Holding her forehead, she rubbed her eyebrows. Her expression grew stern when she looked at Keenan.
"Keenan." "Yes, ma'am!" He stood up straight and wore a solemn expression.
"I've never liked being followed. I believe he told you about it before you chere. Also, I only agreed to let you be my bodyguard because of him. Secondly, I didn't want to put yout in a difficult position.
"Now that you know I put myself in your shoes, I hope you can do the same. I need you to givesfreedom and not smother me." Bonnie used the classic carrot-or-stick technique on Keenan. He wasn't as experienced as Jim, so he couldn't use such a persuasive technique. At the next moment, he yielded and gave in to her wishes.
"Alright, then. I'll live in the room next to you, but you must promise to informwhen something goes wrong." "Don't worry about..." Before she could finish, Ivor's voice drowned hers out.
"Don't worry about it. I'm going to sleep right next to Bonnie on the sbed. She'll be fine." She didn't know what to say for a moment there. "When have I agreed to it?" "I made the call on your behalf."
After dinner, she returned to her room, closed and locked her doon immediately, and then went into the bathroom to shower. She was scrubbing her body when she heard a commotion outside. It sounded like somebody had gone into her room.
'Really? I know I locked the door.'
She was puzzled but swiftly wrapped a towel around herself and opened the bathroom door. At the next mement, she was stunned by what she saw.
Ivor was taking off his clothes while sitting on her bed. Then, he noticed her looking at him Not noticed only was he not guilty, he lied on his side and wagged his finger at her seductively, beckoning her to get close
Chapter 507
Bonnie was frozen to where she stood and gawked at him.
Her reaction was enough to damage his confidence. 'I unbuttoned my shirt, but I didn't remove it. It should've been massively sexy to ladies. So, why does she still look this disinterested? 'Should I have been sexier?' At the thought of that, he moved to unfasten his belt.
"If you take it off, I'll ask Keenan to kick you out of the room." "He's dead asleep. He won't be able to chere." He smiled and responded.
Then, she looked out the window.
'I knew it. It's opened. He climbed into my room through the window. That would've made ssort of sound. I was bathing, and even I could hear it through the shower.
'Keenan was the kind of guy who survived several life-or-death situations. I hesitate to think he wouldn't have noticed something was amiss.' "What did you do to Keenan?" "Nothing. I just put sincense in his room to help with sleep." She didn't respond to him.
"Con. Get over here." He wagged his finger at her again.
A cunning humor flashed in her eyes as she said, "Sure." With that, she walked toward him.
She was wrapped in nothing but the towel. The sight of it was enough to drive him crazy. Every cell in his body was screaming maddeningly, egging him on to do unspeakable things to her. "Close your eyes." She grinned from ear to ear.
His eyes sparkled at that. "Are you trying to kiss me? Is it because you'll feel embarrassed if I look at you?" "Of course. I'm still just a girl at the end of the day. Hurry up and close your eyes. I just might regret it if you drag this out." At the next moment, he did as he was told.
She stuck out a finger and hit his vital point on the nape of his neck.
Then, he fell to the bed and went limp.
"This might help you sleep, too." She whispered in his ear.
She looked at the unconscious Ivor and pondered. Then, she lay a blanket on the ground and hurled him onto it. The following day, she opened her eyes and saw his resentful gaze. "You're mean. I can't believe you letsleep on the floor alone." "Haven't I put a blanket on the floor first? Also, you're the one who pulled ssketchy stunt first. You're the head of the Knight family, and yet you climbed the window and snuck into my room. Aren't you concerned that your family will mock and tease you if they discover this? Website "What's there to be concerned about? Grandma used to always chase Grandpa out of the room when they were young. He'd even punish himself to get into her bedroom.
"More to the point, he was the head of the family too. Not only was he not embarrassed, but he boasted about it during the family dinner party. He said he bows downto no one except his wife. S "He even said that men must obey their wives if they want what's best for the family. We were supposed to learn from him."
'Once again, he showedhow his thick skin is written in the Knights' genes and passed down to the next generation. I could use everything in my arsenal, and he still wouldn't have budged. I should zip it if don't want to be frustrated.' Website She was supposed to go to college today, but she didn't. Instead, she went to her research institute.
'Perhaps being the university president isn't half bad. I don't hav I Shave to apply for an off day if I want to skipd classes. I can just do it whenever I feel like it.' She was burying herself in her research when Toby approached her, wearing a peculiar expression.
"What's the matter? Is something bothering you?" She asked. At the next moment, his expression grew evem stranger. He looked like he was about to spill it, but he bit his tongue instead. "What in the world is wrong? Just tellabout it. It's just us here." Toby wrestled with himself a little before finally telling her about it. "Try not to be alone when you go out later, Ms. Bonita. Someone might ambush you."
Chapter 508
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Bonnie squinted.
'Someone's trying to assassinate me. Are they closing in on me?'
Toby pulled out his phone. "See for yourself."
His expression was déjàvu all over again. Avril looked just the same when Sienna mobilized her fans to attack her.
'Has Sienna not given up on it? Is she stirring up trouble again?'
Then, she got curious and checked the Twitter updates.
'I knew it!'
About ten minutes ago, Sienna, who had gone off the radar for about a week, made a Tweet. She attached a picture of herself in it with a caption that read,
"Don't worry about me, everyone. I'm doing fine. I just needed some rest because I'm a little tired."
In the picture, she wore a mask and a bucket hat. Even so, it was impossible to cover the bruise on her face. Anyone would've been able to tell that she was beaten up. Just like that, her tweet was flooded with angry comments.
"What happened, honey? Why's your face all bruised up? That explains why you haven't been taking on gigs for days."
"Do you have to ask? I'm certain the homewrecker who seduced Orpheus did this. She's behind this!"
"How shameless! What has the world come to? Why's a homewrecker this overbearing?"
"We have to attack her together! It's time for us to unite under a common cause!"
Not long after, Sienna made another tweet.
"I feel I should clarify this. Bonnie has nothing to do with this. I accidentally hurt myself while I was shooting a scene."
"Come on. Don't defend the homewrecker. You've been shooting nothing but romantic television dramas. You didn't have to be suspended in midair by the wires; nor did you take any role that involved combat scenes. So, why Would you get hurt while shooting a scene?
"Even if what you said is true. No filming crew is going to let you get hurt in the face. More to the point, look at how bad the bruises are on your face."
"If this is Sienna's official explanation, then I'm sure the homewrecker threatened her."
"As far as I know, the homewrecker came from the countryside. So, how does it have the capability to be threatening Sienna?”
"That's because you only know part of the truth. Rumor has it that this Bonnie character has a sugar daddy who's supposed to be all-powerful and wealthy." "Ew! That's gross."
Bonnie stopped scrolling after the last comment.
Toby's brows furrowed when he noticed how quiet she was. "A-Are you okay, Ms. Bonita?"
She waved casually, unperturbed.
"Sienna's kind of smart. Her tactics are better and smarter this time.
With that said, she better hopeinet doesn't go too far. Otherwise, I'd still teach her a lesson, even if the Mcleod family begs me to forgive her."
'This reminds me of when I went to the overseas conference. If the Mcleod brothers didn't put their lives on the line, she probably would've received her due punishment.
'Anyway, that's also why I got off her back and put the whole thing behind me. I wouldn't have forgotten and forgiven her otherwise.'
"What do you mean, Ms. Bonita?" Toby asked puzzlingly.
"It's nothing. Let's get on with our work."
After she dealt with Toby, she was about to dive back into her work when she heard Keenan's angry voice.
"Let me take care of this, Ms. Bonita."
She was a little curious, so she asked, "I'm all ears. Tell me just how you are going to handle this. Are you going to tell me you'll beat her to a pulp?"
Chapter 509
"Now, why would I do something so foolish?" Bonnie heard Keenan's response and got invested in his answer. "Well. What are you going to do, then?" He chuckled wickedly and said, "Back when I was on a mission in the rainforest, I cacross sherbs that'd make all of its targets' hair fall off. I must only squeeze its saps into Sienna's food discreetly, and she'll turn into a baldy.
"I guarantee you that none of her hair would stay on. What's more, it'll even ruin her hair follicles. It wouldn't grow back for the next few years." What he said painted a picture in her mind. In less than a second, she conjured up the image of a bald, hairless Sienna.
It was hilarious.
"What kind of herb are we talking about here?" "It doesn't grow anywhere in the vicinity. You can only find it in rainforests, but I'm unsure about its name. I took spictures. Here." Pulling out his phone, he showed her the pictures he had taken.
She stared at it for a while. "I haven't seen anything like it. I will ask someone to getssamples when I have the time." "Are you going to do it yourself? That's a bad idea, given your identity. You don't use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Letdo it instead." He thought she intended to squeeze the sap into Sienna's food. A burst of laughter escaped her. Then, she said, "I didn't think you'd know about this saying, too. Sienna is nothing but a clown. So, why should we go to all this trouble just to deal with her?" "Well. What do you need the herb for, then?" He didn't understand it and scratched his head.
"I have plans for it. You just might know what it's for in the future." 'None of the hair removal products on the market are exactly effective.
"Sienna is at it again. Do you needto handle it?" He asked directly.
"Her grandpas know my real identity. Would this happen if they knew how to deal with her? She was brilliant this time. All she did was make a Tweet to clarify her situation. She even wore a mask and a bucket hat.
"I'm sure her grandpas talked to her about this, but she would've claimed she was innocent and said it was her fans' fault." She analyzed the situation.
"So, are we just going to let it slide? You might be able to forgive and forget, but I can't do that. It's a shI can't go to her place now. Otherwise, I would've found a chance to kidnap her and beat her to a pulp." She couldn't help but feel helpless. "You're just the sas Keenan. What she did barely affected me. In any case, I'll handle it." Then, she changed the topic at once. "When are you going to cback?" "That's what I'm calling you for. My grandparents will celebrate their seventieth birthday, and I'm the only grandson they ever had. My dade askedto extend my leave el n because I was never home. He wantedto organize their birthday parties." Find
"This is a good thing! You're the only grandson. You have an excellent reason to organize it. It's not just that! You have to make sure you do a good job with it."
"But..." His brows knitted tightly. "I'm not that worried about what Sienna is doing as much as I'm worried about the fact that the person who wanted to assassinate you might pop up at any given moment." Keenan patted his chest and said,
"Don't worry about it. You've gotby Ms. Bonita's side. Everything's going to be peachy. After all, swore that no harm would befall her for as long as I breathed. Go ahead and extend your leave, Master Jim. You can extend it for a couple of years if you want." Find"How dare you say that, you punk? Are you trying to replaceas Ms. Bonita's bodyguard?" he said exasperatedly.
Chapter 510
"Hehehe!" Keenan laughed brazenly. "Age is catching up to you, Master Jim. Perhaps you should retire earlier, get married, and have a couple of rugrats. You can count onto keep Ms. Bonita safe!" "Listen up, you punk! I'll beat you up the next tI see you!" Bonnie found their conversation quite amusing. She looked at Jim in the video call and said, "Keenan has a point, Jim! You're getting old, after all. What's more, you said so yourself earlier. You're the only grandson in your family. It's high tyou have a couple of babies." Jim didn't have a good comeback for that.
After that, they chatted for a while before she hung up.
"Con. We're going to the mall." She looked at Keenan and said.
He got worried about the idea. "Do you want to buy something? Just letknow, and I'll buy it for you. Too many people are in the mall, and it's hard to tell who's who. What are we going to do if the person who wants you dead hides his men among the crowd?" Her eyes were filled with humor. "Aren't you here to keepsafe? What's there to be afraid of? Don't you have any confidence in yourself?" "I have absolute confidence in myself, but that's neither here nor there. You should just play it safe and avoid going to dangerous places." "All right, then." She pretended to have accepted his explanation.
He was delighted to hear her response and sighed in relief.
'It looks like Master Jim wasn't entirely right about her. He toldMs. Bonita is decisive and stubborn. Once she makes up her mind about something, no one can change her mind. However, it looks like she's very understanding. Master Jim must've been tricking me, then.' He was in the middle of thinking when she said, "I need sbras and underwear. I'll tell you my cup size and hip size." His jaws dropped straight to the ground.
"Are you okay? Why's your face this red? Are you sick?" She stifled a laugh and said.
Her stares embarrassed Keenan.
atn Then, he thought about what she was asking him to buy for her, and he blushed. They felt so hot that smoke was practically coming out of his ears. "Um, I-I think I'll cwith you and keep you safe." She suppressed her laughter and walked ahead of him as if nothing happened.
He watched as she left. Then, he thought about how he noticed a sense of humor in her eyes. That was when it hit him.
'Master Jim didn't trick me. Ms. Bonita has lived up to her name. It took her nearly no effort to persuade me.
'With that in mind, I think what she said earlier was true. Sienna is just a clown, as far as she is concerned. The actress was nothing more than an insect in her eyes. She simply didn't care about Sienna. Website
'If Sienna doesn't know what is good for herself and continues to bug her, her fingers, all she has to do is wagher and she could ruin Sienna thoroughly.' Once they arrived at the mall, he followed her into a jewelry store.
"Huh? Aren't you supposed to go to a lingerie store, Ms. Bonita?"
She giggled and said, "I was just messing with you, can't believe you bought " The Co content is on ! He didn't know what to say to her at that moment.
"Alright. That's enough about jokes.
Jim's grandparents are going to have a birthday party soon. So, I want to e surprise him by showing up at the' party without him knowing. That's why I'm here to buy birthday presents for the old folks." She had planned on doing it for a long time.
