Ch. 811..820

Chapter 811

Shane's mental state was on the brink of collapse. He feared losing his sanity if Bonnie continued to torment him.

She asked, "Am I intentionally toying with you, or are you too stubborn to admit you're scared? It's almost like you're forcingto do this." Her words were meant to intimidate Shane. He was stunned, and his mouth was agape.

Since he did not respond, Bonnie stopped teasing him and got to the point, "You're here because I want to show you something." She took her phone from her pocket and held it to Shane. "Here, take a look." Shane felt uneasy, wondering what Bonnie was about to show him. Still, he looked at the screen. His heart raced when he saw what was on it.

The screen showed the news of the Knight Group acquiring Gemedia Group, which Shane had painstakingly built over half his life. Additionally, all his mansions and assets were seized.

The news was a devastating blow to Shane because his career was his life. He clutched his chest as he grimaced in agony, looking like he would faint at any moment. Chapter

Bonnie observed him and put away her phone, asking, "How do you feel after seeing that, Mr. Shane?" Shane patted his chest, his eyes bloodshot as he said, "Th-that was my life's work. How dare you do this to me? How could you?!" "Why wouldn't we dare?" Bonnie stepped doser and stared into his eyes. "You've done so many evil things this is your karma. You should prepare to spend the rest of your life in prison." "Ahhh!" Shane screamed in despair and rage. He even coughed up blood in his fit of anger. "Pfft, cough, cough!" Bonnie was disgusted, stepping back to avoid getting blood on herself. Then, she called out toward the door, "Jim." Jim entered the basement and addressed Bonnie, "I'm here." She pointed at Shane and ordered, "Take him downtown and have him prosecuted for his crimes. Follow the procedure and handle the rest as necessary." "Understood," Jim responded and gestured to the soldiers outside. Then, two men dressed in army uniforms entered, unchained Shane, and dragged him out.

Shane was in a daze while being taken away. He muttered, "It's over for me. All my hard work and efforts En are ruined." Losing Gemedia Group had a profound impact on him.

Once Bonnie finished handling everything, Ivor approached and Landm asked in puzzlement, Honey, you call this way to tell Shane about Knight Group acquiring his company?" "Yeah, why?" Bonnie turned to look at him.

Ivor chuckled. "I just don't quite understand why you did it. I thought you cso facto beat him up and vent your anger before sending him to jail."

Chapter 812

Bonnie felt a little helpless, saying, "Do I look like someone who only knows how to use force?" Ivor smiled and embraced her gently. "I'm not saying you're rough. I just think using force is a more straightforward way to solve problems. I said that because I thought you'd use it." Bonnie raised her brows and glanced sideways at her fiance. She said, "As usual, you're good with words." Ivor smiled faintly and took her hand to lead her out. "The basement smells terrible. Let's leave." "Sure," Bonnie responded softly and followed Ivor out.

When they reached outside, he looked at Bonnie and asked, "Can you tellwhy you cjust to inform Shane about losing his company?" "It's simple." Bonnie hooked her arm around Ivor's and walked with him. She explained, "Physical harm doesn't cause much suffering to someone as proud and arrogant as Shane. He'll only feel miserable once I break his psychological defenses.

"He has always aspired to be the wealthiest man in the city, which shows he's career-minded and values his company immensely. I cto tell him about your family acquiring his company to shatter his hopes." Upon hearing that, Ivor remembered seeing Shane vomiting blood in the basement. Chapter

'Bonnie struck Shane's weak spot so precisely, ensuring Shane would remain in constant torment even in prison.' Ivor teased, "Your move was ruthless. Whenever Shane thinks of you in prison, he'll probably grit his teeth and break out in a cold sweat. I'm confident he'll never want to see you again." "Well, he deserves it." Bonnie's eyes turned cold as she spoke. After all, Shane had hurt her fiance.

She teased, "Remember not to betray me, or I guarantee your fate will be worse than his." Ivor felt amused and helpless, saying, "Honey, don't you knowby now? I don't have tto spoil you, so how can I betray you?" Bonnie looked at him with a half-smile and said, "You'd better keep it that way." "Then spend a lifetobserving me," Ivor said as he interlocked his fingers with hers, "I'm sure I can pass the test." Bonnie blushed as she looked at his solemn expression. She turned aside and cleared her throat. "All right, that's enough. I don't want to talk about this anymore. I'm glad you understand that." "Okay," Ivor gently responded, "I'll cook for you when we get back. What would you like to eat?" After sthought, she answered, "Spaghetti Bolognese. It's been a long tsince I had that."

"Perfect. Then let's hurry hso I can make it for you quickened vo his pace, and they started jogging.

Bonnie did not resist. Instead, she let him lead her away. She sighed im as she sighed im contentment as she felt the wind brushing against her cheeks and looked at the man holding her hand. .ne

Three days later, Bonnie's shoulder m almost healed completely. She thought it had been a while since she attended school, so she went

 

Chapter 813

When Bonnie went to the lecture hall, only a few classmates were scattered in their seats. A while later, more students trickled in.

They were surprised when they saw Bonnie but soon went to their seats. After all, Bonnie skipped classes frequently, and they had long grown accustomed to it.

Bonnie felt bored after sitting at her desk for a while. She looked at her watch and noticed there was still a way to go before class would start. She took a book from her drawer to pass the time, and a few minutes later, she heard a sarcastic voice. Chapter

"Hey, Bonnie, how many days have you been absent? Now you're pretending to read a Zudalish book? Can you even understand it?" Bonnie recognized Frankie's voice and lazily looked at him. She said, "Just because you can't understand it doesn't mean others can't. Don't use your lack of intelligence to define me, okay?" "Hmph!" Frankie scoffed. "You're just pretending. I bet you don't even remember your name!" Avril entered the lecture hall and sat beside Bonnie. She looked at Frankie mockingly and remarked, "Did you forget to brush your teeth this morning? Your breath stinks so bad I could smell it from the hallway.

"You should at least manage your appearance for your classmates' sake, even if no one likes you." Frankie turned red with rage as he growled, "I was talking to Bonnie, not you. Why are you butting in?" Avril put her arm around Bonnie's shoulder and raised a brow at Frankie, saying, "So what if I am? Are you going to hit me? Just because Bonnie doesn't mind you doesn't mean have to tolerate your nonsense. If you say one more word, I'Ptape your mouth shut got it?" "Wh-why, you " Frankie's heart raced, and he could not form a coherent sentence.

Avril rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Bonnie. The former whispered, "Bonnie, you can read Zudalish, right?"

Bonnie closed the book and nodded.

"Yeah, I used to stay stay in Zudale m learned Zudalish to communicate with the Zudalians."

When she mentioned Zudale, she remembered meeting a strikingly handsperson. He had blond Hair, ave distinctive features, and dark green eyes. The mysterious-looking man was Andreas McFarland, the prince of Zudale.

had He had helped Bonnie a lot when she was in Zudale. He ensured she had everything she needed and took her to wondrous places. However, one particularly troublesthing about it was that Andreas liked Bonnie.

Chapter 814

'Not only did Andreas like me, but he stuck tolike glue. He followedwherever I went, and I couldn't shake him off.' Thinking about him gave Bonnie a headache. She expressed her frustration with Andreas's actions by rubbing her temples.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated, and she saw a text from Andreas. The message read, "Bonnie, I have great news for you! I finally learned to speak Arvandish and will visit you once I finish arranging things here. Bonnie replied, "Say what now?" "Don't you believe me?" "Zudale is so far from here. Are you sure you want to visit me? You're not joking, are you?" "You'll know whether or not I'm joking in a few days," Andreas replied with a mysterious-looking emoji. Chapter

Bonnie felt exasperated as she replied, "I don't think you should visit, especially because you're a prince. I fear I can't host you properly." Andreas did not reply after that. Bonnie stared at her phone and furrowed her brows, thinking, 'Knowing his impulsiveness, he might be serious about visiting.' Then, Frankie's voice interrupted her thoughts, Bonnie, can't you speak for yourself instead of letting Avril do it? Oh + know! You must be silent because I've exposed your fake knowledge of Zudalish." Bonnie looked at him condescendingly. "Frankie, do you start to feel uncomfortable if you don't cause trouble for a day? I suggest you work on improving yourself and gaining more experience instead. Otherwise, you can't graduate." Frankie choked, "Why do you care whether or not I improve? You're just meddling!" Bonnie smirked. "You're right, so I'll return the sentiment. It's none of your business if I know Zudalish, so stop meddling." Frankie was furious when she used his words against him. He did not know how to retort and could only stare at her.

Bonnie quietly waited for his response. Still, he stood there without intending to leave. She raised her brow at him and questioned, "Why are you still here? Do you want to be my bodyguard or something?"

Frankie snorted. "I have something to say. That's why I'm still here." Bonnie looked at him exasperatedly and said, "Say it then."

Frankie's expression shifted from a glare to a smirk. It was as if he m remembered something of significance.

 

Chapter 815

"I just wanted to remind you of our bet. You told everyone to buy tech stocks and Tang Fusion Studios shares. However, both stock prices have stabilized with no sign of a sharp rise. "So, it might be difficult for you to win. If you lose, you must honor our agreement. No excuses, Bonnie." After sthought, Bonnie said, "Yeah, our bet should conclude soon. Don't worry. I always keep my word. I won't back down, nor should you if you lose." Her research was nearing its final breakthrough, and she estimated it should be complete within six months. Bonnie also aimed to finish the experiment by the end of next year.

Meanwhile, Frankie thought she was just trying to irritate him. He suppressed his anger and said, "I won't cheat if you don't. You don't have to worry about me." Bonnie shrugged. "That's even better." "Hmph!" Frankie scoffed and glared at Bonnie before leaving.

Avril watched him and rolled her eyes at his retreating figure. "He rushed over to make his presence known as soon as you returned. I wonder if he has a screw loose. He does such ridiculous things every day." "Just ignore him. I'll be the winner," Bonnie said. She was too lazy to argue with him. Chapter

Avril smiled when she considered Bonnie's multiple identities. The former said, "Of course, you have insider information. He can keep dreaming if he thinks he can beat you." "I didn't want to be in a bet with him, but since he insisted, I had to accept the challenge." Bonne shrugged, sounding helpless.

"Frankie brought it on himself, so it's not your fault for crushing him." Avril could not help but imagine Frankie's expression once he lost the bet. It would be wonderfully tic and humiliating, and he would regret opposing Bonnie.

Suddenly, Avril and Bonnie overheard their classmates' discussions.

"Hey, did you hear? The new university president is giving a speech today." "Yeah, it's near the end of the term, after all, it's tradition for the president to give a speech. Now that the old president has retired, it's the new president's turn." Content "I heard she's young. I'm curious about what she looks like. She's been keeping a low profile all along, too. I hope we can finally see her today." "You're not the only one who's curious. I bet the whole school wonders what she looks like and what kind of person she is." Avril looked around to ensure no one was listening before whispering to Bonnie, "You've been so busy lately. Did you ctoday just for the assembly?" "Yeah, most of the professors textedabout it early this morning," Bonnie replied.

She remembered the assembly despite her busy schedule. Now that her shoulder had healed, she decided to return, especially since

she had been away for so long Indeed, the assembly was & the a m content is on !

significant reason for her to return.

Keeps Avril glanced at Frankie and smiled meaningfully. "Frankie keeps picking on you. I wonder how he'd react if he knew you were the university president."

Chapter 816

Avril considered Bonnie's upcoming speech and asked curiously, "Do you plan on telling everyone you're the new president?" The latter glanced at Avril and winked. "Guess." "I can't," Avril said, shaking Bonnie's arm, "Just tell me!" Bonnie smirked. "Do you really want to know?" Avril nodded eagerly. "Yes, yes! Tell me!" Bonnie gestured for Avril to ccloser. "Chere." Avril's eyes lit up as she leaned in. "Hurry up and tell me." Under Avril's expectant gaze, Bonnie slowly said, "It's a secret." "Aw, man!" Avril exclaimed in disappointment, "I thought you'd tell me! Do you know how it feels to be led on like that? The higher my expectation, the greater the disappointment, Bonnie." Bonnie chuckled and said, "Stop being so tic. The assembly starts in ten minutes. You'll know soon enough. What's the rush?" Avril thought about it and realized Bonnie had a point. Moreover, the former guessed Bonnie kept it a secret to create suspense.

'She's most likely planning to reveal her identity as a surprise.' With that in mind, Avril's anticipation grew. She clung to Bonnie's arm and said, "Since you put it that way, I'll wait. I hope I don't get disappointed." Bonnie smirked mysteriously. "All right, all right. Just wait, okay?" Soon after the school broadcast began, "The university president's speech will commence in ten minutes. All students, please proceed to the auditorium in an orderly fashion." The broadcaster repeated the announcement while the students filled out and headed toward the auditorium. They continued excitedly discussing the president as they walked, eager to see what she looked like.

Bonnie turned to Avril and said, "You go ahead. I won't be coming with you." The latter knew Bonnie needed to prepare her speech and simply waved. "All right, I'm off then." Bonnie nodded. "See you later."

She remained seated until most of the students left. Then she leisurely headed toward her office.

Frankie was about to leave for the auditorium after using the restroom when he noticed oticed Bonnie heading in the other direction. He saw how relaxed she was and assumed she wanted to skip out on the assembly to have fun instead. Chapter

'Skipping something important like the president's speech is a blatant disregard for sando rules! I must warm her to ensure she understands how severe the situation is.'

 

Chapter 817

Frankie strode toward Bonnie and yelled, "Hey, where are you going?!" Bonnie stopped and turned to look at him indifferently. "What? Do you need something?" Frankie repeated, "I asked you where you were going." His interrogative tone made her raise her brow and scoff. "Why do you care where I go?" "You're right. I shouldn't care, but didn't you hear the announcement? The new university president is about to make her speech, yet you're wandering off instead of heading to the auditorium.

"I bet you're planning to skip out and laze around again. You're disregarding school rules and the new president by doing that! I wonder how the president would react if she found out there's a student like you in this university. Hmm, she might even expel you." Bonnie crossed her arms and rolled her eyes, saying, "You do have a screw loose." Frankie sneered. "You better hope I don't catch you misbehaving because I won't let you off." 'I'll report her immediately for disobeying school rules and skipping out on the president's speech!' Bonnie scoffed. "Even if I misbehaved, can you catchwith your lack of IQ? Don't try to gain an advantage only to end up worse off and regret it later." Frankie frowned. "We'll see who ends up feeling regretful. I guarantee you'll regret saying that to me." Bonnie shrugged. "Oh, then I'll be waiting." "Keep that up, Bonnie!" Frankie snapped and glared at Bonnie before storming off in a huff.

"What a nutjob," Bonnie muttered, then headed to her office. As she was about to change, she heard someone knocking on the door.

Knock, knock, knock! Bonnie said, "Cin." Chapter

Reece entered with a smile, saying, "Ms. Bonnie, I know you're probably busy and haven't had the tto prepare your speech, so I took the liberty to prepare a draft for you. You can use it for your speech.

His attitude toward Bonnie had exponentially changed since he. m discovered she was MS Bonita Bonnie did not expect Reece to be so considerate. She glanced at him. and took the draft. "Thanks." "It's my job to make your work lighter, Ms. Bonnie. You don't need to thank me," Reece said with a hint of pride in his eyes, feeling honored to serve her.

Bonnie observed his expression and chuckled. Then she shook her head and read through the draft. Soon after, she returned it to Reece and said, "Here you go."

Chapter 818

Reece was puzzled, asking, "Don't you need it, Ms. Bonnie?" His brows furrowed as he thought, 'She accepted the draft, which shows she approved my efforts. Why did she return it? Was it too boring for her?' As Reece was about to suggest preparing a new draft, Bonnie said, "It's not that I don't need it. I've already memorized it. I can deliver the speech without looking at it." Reece's eyes widened in shock. "You memorized all that in less than a minute?!" 'Ms. Bonnie is extraordinary! She has exceptional talent in scientific research, and her memory is astonishing! It's awe-inspiring.' "Yeah, is there a problem?" Bonnie had known she could speed-read since childhood. It also served her well and helped her succeed in various fields.

"Th-there's no problem at all, Ms. Bonnie! I just hope to be as amazing as you one day." Reece's initial shock turned into profound admiration. He gazed at Bonnie brightly as if he were a fan of hers. Chapter

Bonnie smiled helplessly. "It's an innate ability. Unfortunately, it isn't something you can achieve through hard work. Still, you're impressive I enough. You don't have to compare yourself to me." "Y-You think I'm impressive?" Reece's excitement was evident, and he was thrilled. Receiving Bonnie's recognition was a dream ctrue for him. It meant he did well and resolved to work even harder to support Bonnie in managing the school.

"Of course. You stand out among your peers," Bonnie's words were sincere.

The professors at the prestigious university were the best of the best, but Reece excelled among them.

He was so excited by Bonnie's praise that he felt like dancing. Howevenhe ing restrained himself, knowing such behavior was inappropriate. Instead, he saved his excitement for later and planned to boast about it to his colleagues.

Bonnie checked her watch and realized it was almost tfor h St tfor her speech. She looked at Reece and said, "Time's running out. Let's head to the auditorium."

She expected Reece to follow, but when she reached the stairway, she heard no footsteps behind her. She stopped and turned to look at him.

 

Chapter 819

Bonnie saw him standing in a stupor and grinning. She yelled for him, "Professor Reece! Are you coming?"

Her voice snapped him out of his thoughts. He jogged over and apologized, "I'm sorry, Ms. Bonnie. I was a little distracted. Thanks for waiting."

"No problem," Bonnie replied casually and continued descending the stairs. "Let's head to the auditorium. We're running late."

"Right!" Reece nodded and hastened to keep up with her.

Meanwhile, Avril chatted with her classmates about the new university president. The students were curious, craning their necks to look at the backstage entrance.Chapter

"Why isn't the president here yet? I can't wait to see what she looks like. Is she as young as the rumors say?"

Avril thought of Bonnie and blurted out, "She's young and competent."

Before her classmates could ask her anything, Frankie mocked, "You sound like you know the new president. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Hanging around with someone like Bonnie has turned you into a poser like her."

Avril crossed her arms and

chuckled. "If anyone here's a poser, it's you. Don't act like you know everything when you know nothing. What happens when you do? Bonnie crushes you. What else are you good for besides spewing nonsense?"

"Why, you " Frankie was furious but unable to retort. His heart pounded as he glared at Avril.

"What, cat got your tongue, Frankie? Shut up if you have nothing worthwhile to say," Avril snapped and sat down, deciding to ignore Frankie.

'His smugness won't last long. His attitude will change once Bonnie makes her speech as the new university president.'

Frankie was seething but was powerless against Avril. He could only fume in his seat and wonder when he could have the upper hand against her and Bonnie. The two girls constantly outdoing himhad severely damaged his pride.

Meanwhile, Trina sat in the corner and eagerly awaited the president's appearance. She hoped to make a good impression and establish a connection with her, which might lead to a recommendation to join Bonita Research Institute,

If Trina could do that, she could bring pride to her family and secure her status at the university and within her family. She was determined to seize such an opportunity.

As she mulled over these ideas, the new president finally appeared and grabbed everyone's attention. It seemed a group of professors had surrounded her.

 

Chapter 820

Bonnie's presence was undeniably commanding. However, the disappointing aspect was that she had hidden her face by wearing a mask and sunglasses.

The crowd sighed as they murmured amongst each other.

Bonnie watched the students' reactions and tapped the microphone to check if it worked. Then, she began her speech, "Hello, everyone, I'm Ms. Jody, your new university president. I will listen to and adopt your suggestions to address the school's shortcomings.

"I hope everyone follows the rules and regulations to maintain a pure and clean learning environment."

Her voice was steady yet gentle, inspiring trust and confidence. The previously lively auditorium gradually quieted down, and everyone listened to what Bonnie had to say.

She glanced down at the crowd as she spoke. Although most faces below were a blur, she also saw many familiar students. She hoped no one would recognize her to save her from needless hassle. Bonnie felt it was best to preserve the mystery of her identity.

Trina watched from the corner as Bonnie moved, hoping to see the latter's face.Chapter

'She sounds highly familiar. Almost like...'

Bonnie's faint smile flashed in Trina's mind. The latter shook her head vigorously, trying to dispel that thought.

'What's happening? Everyone seems to resemble Bonnie now. I must be losing my mind. I even suspected Bonnie was Mr. Ivor's recently announced fiancee. Why amd seeing her in everyone?

'No, it must be the trauma from all the times Bonnie outshined me. That must be why I'm imagining her as everyone I see. I even hear her voice everywhere. She's terrifying.'

Trina knew she had to stay away from Bonnie to avoid further psychological trauma.

On the other hand, Avril silently criticized Bonnie for wearing sunglasses and a mask.

'Sigh, I knew it I shouldn't have hoped for Bonnie to reveal herself. Then again, it makes sense. She has always been discreet. If she showed her face, countless students and professors would fawn over her, leaving her with no time to do anything else.'

With that in mind, Avril came to terms with Bonnie's approach.
