Ch. 851..860

Chapter 851

"You might be overthinking it, Ivor. I wouldn't do anything without you knowing."Chapter

Ivor's frown deepened as he asked, "Are you sure? I can't shake the feeling that you're acting weird today."

Bonnie was about to reply, but Avril interjected, "Bonnie needs to deal with campus affairs today, Ivor. She was just worried about her work when you called. She was in the middle of her work just now." When Ivor heard that, he understood the situation and responded, "Oh, that's what it was. I guess I should get out of your hair then."

"Okay, I'll call you when I finish work." With that, Bonnie hung up and rested her cheek on her hand. She sighed and said, "What will Ivor think when he realizes I lied to him? He's going to be pissed!"

'I know I promised Andreas I'd become his consort because it's an emergency. Still, he's pressuring me to uphold my promise. That makes the whole thing different.'

The more Bonnie thought about it, the more convoluted it seemed. Her headache became unbearable, too. She could rub her temples all she wanted, but it did not make her feel better.

Avril said, "What kind of question is that? Of course, Ivor will be mad! That's why you must never tell him about it!"

"You're overreacting." Bonnie frowned.

"Gosh, you think? Ivor gets jealous easily. Of course, he'll turn green with envy when he learns about it! don't have to tell you how it ends if that happens. You should keep it a secret. That's the only way you can save your relationship

h tvor."

The more Avril talked about it, the more dire it sounded. It was almost like the world would end if Bonnie told Ivor about this incident.

'Avril has a point, but I made Ivor promise never to lie. Now, it looks like I'll have to lie to him. I feel awful.'

With that in mind, Bonnie looked at Avril and sighed helplessly, asking, "Are you sure I can't tell him about it?"

Avril held Bonnie's shoulder and said

solemnly, "You can never tell Ivor about it, ever! You'll suffer if you do have faith that you'll resolve things regarding Prince Andreas. After that, you have a happy ending without worrying about Ivor finding out."

'I don't want to lie to Ivor about anything, but I must admit that Avril's right, I only need to tell Andreas to give up on me because I don't feel the same. Then, he'll return to his country, and it'll be like none of this ever happened.'

With that in mind, Bonnies guessed there was no need to create more misunderstandings between her and Ivor over Andreas.

'Ivor is so possessive of me. He'll raise hell if he finds out I promised Andreas I'd become his consort. Now that I think about it, it's pretty severe.'

Bonnie rubbed her chin and considered her options before accepting Avril's suggestion. The former would resolve the matter with Andreas, and it would be as if nothing ever happened.

Meanwhile, Avril got worried when she noticed Bonnie's silence. The former asked, "Bonnie, are you listening? You can't tell Ivor about this. Think about yourself!"

 

 

 

Chapter 852

Bonnie composed herself after hearing Avril's words. The former looked at her friend and smiled bitterly, saying, "Fine, I won't tell Ivor."

Avril was worried Bonnie would make the wrong decision, but the former sighed in relief when she heard Bonnie's response.

"Thank goodness you see my logic. Also, you're not lying. You're just keeping Ivor from getting hurt. Sometimes, it's necessary to do something like this. It'll save you plenty of trouble." Bonnie nodded approvingly. "You're right."

"Of course I am! It doesn't take a genius to know you can't tell Ivor," Avril held Bonnie's arm and said, "Anyway, have you thought of a way to make things right between you and Andreas?" When she mentioned that, Bonnie's headache returned. The former said, "Not really. Do you think it's that easy to think of a solution?"

Andreas was difficult to deal with, and Bonnie did not know where to begin.

"It's okay, Bonnie. Take your time. I'll back you up until you resolve things with Andreas," Avril said as she patted her chest.

Bonnie glanced sidelong at her. "I didn't expect you to be useful at a time like this."

Avril was shocked. "Hey, you're making it sound like I don't have a brain. I know I'm not as smart as you, but I know things." Bonnie giggled. "I appreciate it, Avril."

"What's with the formalities? We're close friends, aren't we?"

Bonnie smiled and said, "Fine, I'll drop the formalities."

Avril lifted her chin. "That's more like it. We're best friends, after all."

Bonnie giggled again but said nothing more.

Trina and a few of her friends went to the cafeteria for lunch. On their way there, they chatted about the new exchange student.

"I heard there's an exchange student in the computer science class. He's cute, like Prince Charming-no, he's drop dead gorgeous! I hope to see him later." Chapter

"Some people secretly took pictures of him and posted them online. I saw the pictures and agree with you. He can charm the pants off anyone. I'd even say he trumps celebrities and models."

"I saw them, too! That guy's stunning. The other students want his number, and some even ask about him in the forums."

Trina listened as they spoke. She thought, Seriously? I never knew such a student existed. If that's the case, + must meet him. He might just ewhat he sees. Then, I'll get my chance to elevate my life and fame!'

With that in mind, she stepped between her friends and asked curiously, "Are you serious? Is the exchange student that cute?"

"Honey, he's more than cute. Also, why would so many comments about him be on the internet if he weren't as stunning as we say?"

 

Chapter 853

"Trina, I thought you're always on Twitter. Didn't you see the trending topic?"

"Yeah, you're usually on top of such topics. It's strange that you don't know about this."

Trina feigned helplessness and sighed. "I've been so swamped with research that I had no time to check Twitter. I envy you guys for having the time to do it!"

Her friends knew she was boasting about her achievement in a roundabout way. They rolled their eyes in unison.

'Tsk, she's just an assistant to a minor professor conducting insignificant research. She doesn't have to make it sound bigger than it is. She's nothing special, after all.'

Trina noticed her friends were not responding to her. She continued to bug them, "Hey, tell me more about this exchange student. I'm intrigued."

Her friends looked at each other, and one was about to say something when they noticed something from the corner of their eyes. They gasped in unison as one asked, "Isn't that Andreas, the exchange student?"

Another said, "Speak of the devil. It must be my lucky day."

"Gosh, he's much cuter in person! I need to take a picture now. I don't dare to flirt with him, but at least I can have a photo of him on my phone."

Trina saw her friends' excitement and followed their gaze. She searched for Andreas and asked, "Which one is he?"

Immediately after, she saw him standing at a vending machine. She added, "H-He's gorgeous! That's what a model should look like. He's like an angel from Heaven!"

'Besides Ivor, Andreas is the cutest guy I've seen in Pyralis. Andreas is so full of youthful energy.'

Trina could not help but stare at him in a daze. Her friends swapped glances and muttered about her behind her back when they noticed how enchanted she looked. Then, a couple of them approached Trina. "Do you have a crush on him, Trina?"

"Do you think he's charming?"

"If you like him, you should chat and ask for his number. We support you."

ē

Trina had already intended to do that. However, she behaved pretentious before them and feigned shyness. "I don't think I should do that. After all, he's too handsome. Why do you think he'll have eyes for me? ś

"I'll feel so embarrassed if he rejects me.

a there are so many p e the school's la

The last thing I want.

The duo who approached Trina wanted to see how things would turn out. So, they continued to persuade her.

"You need to be more confident in

yourself, Trina! You're talented and look as cute as a button. Why wouldn't he have eyes for you? You're so pretty that he might fall in love with you at first sight!

"I agree. You're single, right? Just give it a whirl. You might surprise yourself."

Although Trina bit her lip shyly, she was dying to flirt with Andreas. She asked, "D-Do you think I can do it?"

Her friends were determined to see her embarrass herself, so they encouraged her.Chapter

"Of course you can! You have the looks and demeanor for it. Now, hurry up and approach Andreas. We'll wait for you here."

"You're too modest, Trina. No one else can pull it off but you."

"W-Well, all right, then. I'll give it a shot."

Chapter 854

Trina's friends succeeded in motivating her and giving her the confidence she needed. Trina took a deep breath and approached Andreas. As she walked over, she noticed his perfect, poreless skin. 'His jaw-line is flawless. How can anyone look so handsome? I'd be thrilled if I could become his girlfriend.'

Andreas sensed someone approaching him. However, it had been a while since he sensed it, yet no one said a thing. He was puzzled while waiting to receive his drink from the vending machine. After picking up, he turned and saw Trina standing before him.

Andreas scratched his head and asked, "Can I help you with something?"

Trina stared at his flawless face in a daze. She looked at him timidly and blushed before introducing herself, "Y-Yeah, I came to talk to you. My name's Trina. I'd like to—"

Before she could finish, he interjected, "Oh, I get it. You're here to flirt with me and ask for my number, right?"

Andreas guessed Trina's intentions so fast that she thought she stood a chance with him. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him hopefully, saying, "U-Um, I just wanted to be your friend. Can I have your phone number?"

Andreas dashed her hopes in seconds. He said, "I'm sorry, but I'm already in love with someone. I don't want her to misunderstand me, so I can't give you my phone number."

Trina thought he pointed out her intentions because he wanted to agree with her approach. She never expected him to reject her instead. After getting turned down, she felt embarrassed.

A moment later, Trina saw some students mocking and pointing at her.

"She should look at herself in the mirror before asking Andreas for his phone number. She thinks too highly of herself."

"There are far more attractive girls

here, yet they only dare to look at

Stnoveldrama

him. None of them have aske

for

his number. I don't think anyone is as courageous as that girl.

"She must have a high opinion of herself and thinks she can charm anyone. That said, that girl should consider whether or not she deserves someone like him."

"I've seen many shameless people, but that girl takes the cake. She thought she stood a chance to flirt with Andreas. I wonder where she got the courage to do that."

Trina heard everyone's remarks. She

balled her fists angrily as her body

stiffened, evidently trying to

suppress her rage. Embarrassemet

and upset, she could not decide whether to run or speak up for

herself against the crowd,

Suddenly, she heard an extremely familiar voice, "Andreas, what's taking you so long? I thought you were just buying a drink."

'Wait, is that Bonnie?! Why is she talking to Andreas as if they're close? Does she know him personally?!'

Meanwhile, Andreas left Trina there.

He stood before her a second ago but reacted like a puppy when he heard Bonnie's voice. He ran over and said, "I'm coming! I bought my drink much earlier but ran into trouble."

He handed Bonnie the drink and said, "Here, your favorite orange juice."

Then, he lifted his chin and waited for her to praise him. "It's been so long since we last met, but I still remember your favorite drink. I'm awesome, aren't I?"

 

Chapter 855

Bonnie helplessly went along with him, "Yeah, you're undoubtedly awesome."

When she took the orange juice from him, she frowned and said, "I thought I told you to get me an iced orange juice. Why'd you get me a lukewarm one instead?"

Andreas sighed and waved. "Cold drinks are detrimental to your health. It's better for your body if you drink more room-temperature beverages. It's not just this time, too. I'll watch you to stop you from drinking iced beverages."

Bonnie rolled her eyes. "Are you trying to control my life?"

"For the record, that's not what I'm doing. It's just my way of expressing concern. If you keep drinking iced drinks, you'll..." Andreas lectured Bonnie about the side effects of cold drinks.

'Damn, he's such a blabber mouth that I can't stand it. I'll just let him win this time.'

"Fine, I'll listen to whatever you say. Just stop talking."

Andreas's eyes lit up when he heard that. "That's more like it. You should listen to me. After all, I'm only doing it for your benefit. You have no idea how concerned I am about you."

"Okay, okay, that's enough!" Bonnie had no interest in listening to him. "Quit talking. We need to return to the lecture hall. It's almost time for our next lesson."

"All right, let's go there together." Andreas smiled gleefully. It was plain to see how delighted he was with her.

Meanwhile, Trina watched as Andreas stared at Bonnie and followed along.

'It's like Bonnie never saw me. On the contrary, she chose to ignore me. Gah, it doesn't matter! The point is, I'm sick and tired of her!'

Trina continued to watch the duo

chat as they left the cafeteria

l.né

together. The longer she stared at them, the more envious and resentful she felt. She balled her fists so tightly that she did not even realize her nails were digging into her palms.

'What makes Bonnie so special?! Why do good things always happen to her? I agree that she's pretty, has medical knowledge, knows how to paint well, and is overall talented. Still, why do handsome guys dove throwing themselves at her?!

'I'm pretty and have immense talent in scientific research, too. So, why don't I have whatever Bonnie does?'

Trina grimaced with jealousy. Even

so, she could only suppress her

emotions and curse Bonnie inwardly The former knew she was no match for her former sister Trina did not dare to throw her thoughts and feelings at Bonnie, lest the former pay a hefty price.

At the thought of that, her face contorted with jealousy.

Classes ended in the blink of an eye. Bonnie took her bag and exited the lecture hall. Soon after, Andreas bugged her again, asking, "Bonnie, where do you stay now? Can I come over? I haven't seen where you live yet."

Bonnie instantly rejected him. "Nope! I don't like people butting into my personal space."Chapter

Andreas was highly disappointed. He was about to say something, but Bonnie was quicker. She added, "Not even friends."

She saw through him like he was a window. Andreas pursed his lips and grumbled, "You'll be my princess one day. Why can't I visit your home now?"

Bonnie frowned when he mentioned making her his princess. She warned, "I told you not to talk about that while we're on campus. I'll give you a final warning. If you cross the line again, I'll ignore you forever, got it?!"

A moment later, she heard a charming voice, "Hey, Bonnie."

 

Chapter 856

Bonnie froze when she heard the voice. Then, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes as she thought, 'When did Ivor get here?! Did he hear my conversation with Andreas? What would he think if he heard the word princess?'

She wondered if Ivor would make the connection that she promised Andreas to marry him. Although the word princess did not prove anything, Ivor was perceptive.

Ivor strode toward her and asked, "Why are you blanking out? Earth to Bonnie."

Bonnie returned to her senses and tried maintaining her composure to make up a story. "Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking about my research. That's why I didn't notice you calling out to me." Ivor nodded understandingly. "Oh, that's what it was."

He was stunned to see the prince standing beside her. Andreas met Ivor's gaze and waved at him joyfully. "Ivor, I was thinking about visiting you in the next few days, but here we are. What a coincidence."

Then, Andreas caught himself and glanced at Bonnie. He turned to Ivor and asked, "Are you here to see Bonnie?"

The couple exchanged glances and asked each other simultaneously, "How do you know His Highness, Bonnie?" "How do you know Prince Andreas, Ivor?"

The couple stared into each other's eyes, and Ivor took the lead, "I met His Highness when he and His Majesty visited Pyralis for a

business forum. I represented net

family in welcoming them. I even brought them to all the unique landmarks. That's how I became good friends with His Highness.

Ivor then looked at Andreas before gazing at Bonnie. "Hmm, how do you know each other, Bonnie? Also, you two look pretty close."

Bonnie was about to answer, but Andreas was faster, "Here's the thing, Ivor. Bonnie and I are "

Before he could finish, Bonnie glarednoveldrama

at him. Ivor saw it and frowned. Then he gazed between his fiancee and the prince repeatedly. Even Ivor could not tell what was

happening. He glanced at Angel.reet

and asked, "What were you saying, Your Highness? What's your relationship with Bonnie?"

Andreas scratched his head and instinctively looked at Bonnie. He stammered, "U-Um, perhaps Bonnie should explain it. I can't find the words right now."

'I have no idea why she stopped me. Still, I won't say a word if she doesn't want me to. I'll do anything she says.'

Bonnie sighed in relief.

'Thank goodness Andreas read my expression accurately, or I wouldn't know how to explain myself. Now that the ball is in my court, it's up to me to spin the story.'

Bonnie took a moment to collect her

thoughts before staring into Ivor's profound eyes. She kept a handle on her nerves and said, "I went

blueberry plucking in Zudale three years ago and, believe it or not,

befriended him.

"He's here because he finally mastered Arvadorian and came looking for me. After all, it's normal for friends to hang out, right?"

Chapter 857

"Is that so?" Ivor stared at Bonnie curiously.

'I can't shake the feeling something weird is going on between His Highness and Bonnie, but I can't figure it out.'

"Don't you believe me?" Bonnie frowned and looked sideways at Andreas, hinting at him to go along. "If you don't, ask Prince Andreas and see what he says."

Andreas caught her drift and nodded subtly. Before Ivor could question him, he said, "She's right, Ivor. We met each other when we were plucking blueberries. I came to hang out with her after finally mastering the Arvandor language."

Something occurred to Andreas at that moment, and he could not help but feel confused. He asked, "I don't get it, though. Why do you keep asking Bonnie about how we know each other? Is it that important to you?"

Ivor was stunned when he heard that. He frowned and reflected on his behavior.

'I guess Andreas has a point. He only came out of the campus with Bonnie because they're good friends, yet I questioned her as if I don't trust her.'

Realizing his inappropriate behavior, he responded apologetically, "I-I didn't mean to pry. I just care about Bonnie too much, that's all. I'm sorry about that."

"Hmm, you said you care about her?" Andreas wondered what Ivor truly meant.

'What is Bonnie and Ivor's relationship? Why would he use such an intimate word?'

"Mhm," Ivor replied faintly, "Is there a problem, Your Highness?"

Andreas sensed something was amiss. was about to ask Ivor

Some when the royal guard

spoke, "Your Highness, the car is here. It's time to head home."

The prince glanced at Bonnie hesitantly. He was about to pry again, but Bonnie spoke before he could. "Your guards are here, Prince Andreas. You should go with them now. Don't keep them waiting."

Andreas froze momentarily before responding, "I'll take my leave then. We'll talk again tomorrow."

'Since it's not a good time to ask

Bonnie waved, "All right, then."

Ivor watched as Andreas left with his royal guards. Then, the former gazed at Bonnie and said, "Prince Andreas looks at you so strangely."

Bonnie rolled her eyes at him. "Do you think you're a magnifying glass or something? How do you know how he looks at me?"

Then, she thought of something and joked, "Are you sure it's just the prince who looks at me strangely and not every other guy, too?"

 

Chapter 858

The initially stunned Ivor grinned. "I knew it. You know me better than anyone else."

He held Bonnie's slender waist and pulled her close. "I don't like any guy who gets too close to you. They should get their own fiancees or girlfriends. Why do they always swarm around mine?" "Stop being so dramatic." Bonnie shoved him aside. "He's my friend, that's all. We weren't doing or thinking anything inappropriate. You just assume those things."

Ivor remarked, "Although you don't think that way, you can't guarantee they don't harbor impure thoughts about you."

"So what if they do, Ivor? Are you seriously intervening in my social life? If we're together, we must trust each other instead of whatever you're doing now. You're trying to shackle me over something unreasonable.

"It makes me feel like you don't know what love is. Instead, you're being selfish." Bonnie did not mean to scold Ivor, but she had to so he would stop thinking about Andreas and ultimately figure out the truth. As for the prince, everything would be water under the bridge once Bonnie resolved it.

Thinking Bonnie would get mad at him, a trace of panic flashed in Ivor's eyes. He cupped her hands and said, "I'm sorry. I just care about you too much. I didn't mean to make you feel shackled. I'll stop since you don't want to talk about it."

Ivor apologized so quickly that it made Bonnie realize she had been a little harsh on him. Moreover, she felt guilty. She held his hand and softened her tone, saying, "I didn't mean to get mad at you. I just don't like it when we're suspicious of each other.Chapter

"I need trust instead of what's happening now. You're suspicious of me over something trivial for no reason."

Ivor nodded solemnly. "I understand. I won't doubt you again."

"Great!" She replied and held his arm. "Let's go home."

Ivor smiled when he noticed Bonnie holding his arm.

The following day, Bonnie did not go to campus-instead, she went to her research institute. As for Andreas, he eagerly waited for her on campus, only to find out she was not coming to the university.

He tried texting Bonnie, but she did not reply. It made Andreas feel like she had no interest in responding to him. He could only stare at his phone and wait for a reply that would never come. Then, he rested his chin on his hand and sighed helplessly.

Avril, sitting nearby, heard his sigh. She could not help but ask, "What's wrong, Andreas? Did something happen?”

Andreas sighed again. "I don't know what happened, but Bonnie isn't replying to my texts."

At that moment, he remembered

Bonnie and Avril as close friends He

stared at Avril and asked, "You're

Bonnie's best friend, right? Can you

tell me where she is and why she's not replying?"

Chapter 859

Andreas initially considered calling Bonnie, but she did not reply to his texts. So, he did not think she would answer his call. That was why he chose not to do it.

Avril's heart softened when she met his pitiful gaze. She had a strong urge to tell him the truth. "Look at the time. If Bonnie's not on campus, she's most likely at the research institute. She has a habit of silencing her phone when doing research. I'll bet that's why Bonnie isn't responding."

Avril said that because Bonnie told her Andreas knew about the latter's identity as Bonita.

"Oh, is that where Bonnie is?" Andreas nodded. "I guess it's normal for her not to reply, then. I thought she was ignoring me."

Avril instinctively said, "You did nothing wrong, so why would she give you the cold shoulder? That's highly unlike her."

Andreas nodded in approval, saying, "Yeah, it looks like I was overthinking it. I was worried I did something to upset her.”

Avril remarked, "I thought you two are close friends. Bonnie wouldn't have ignored you for no good reason, even if you upset her."

"I guess you're right." Andreas nodded again. Then, he remembered something and smiled. "Hey, I have an important question to ask you. Can you help me out?"

Avril could sense something was off when she saw how Andreas smiled. She dared not promise him anything. "M-Maybe you should tell me what you need first. Otherwise, I won't know if I can help you."

Andreas asked, "Um, do you know what's happening between Ivor and Bonnie? I saw how they treated each other yesterday, and I can't help feeling something strange about it."

"D-Did you run into Ivor yesterday?!" Avril's heart dropped immediately.

'Ivor and the man trying to win

Bonnie's heart met each other?! How

did Bonnie get herself out of that

situation? Still, it doesn't look likmet"

Andreas knows Ivor is Bonnie's

fiance. If that's the case, I can't tell Andreas.

*Andreas and Ivor aren't people to be reckoned with. Disaster will follow if either of them finds out the truth. I need to help Bonnie keep her secrets airtight. I can't tell anyone the truth!' Andreas knew Avril was getting a little worked up. He could not help but look at her curiously, saying, "Yeah, I ran into Ivor yesterday. What's wrong? Why do you look shocked?"

Avril composed herself and grinned dryly. She said, "The way you said Ivor's name sounds like you know him well. I'm just surprised you guys seem to know each other."

"Oh, that's why you look like that."

Then, Andreas briefly explained how

he befriended Ivor. Afterward, he asked again, "Considering your tone, you probably know Ivor, too. Can you tell me what's happening between him and Bonnie?"

"Uh, well..." Avril had no idea what to say. She was stumped for a long while before finally finding her voice, "I think you should ask Bonnie about that. After all, it's such a private question. It's not my place to

answer." Chapter

Andreas looked puzzled. "I was just asking about how well they know each other. Is that too private?"

"Yeah, it's part of Bonnie's private life. Although I might be her best friend, I can't answer such questions on her behalf." Avril waved, hinting at Andreas that she would not answer.

She added, "I-If you want an answer, you should ask Bonnie. You're barking up the wrong tree, Andreas. I don't know anything."

 

Chapter 860

Andreas frowned as he watched Avirl bolt out of the hall.

'I only asked her what Bonnie and Ivor's relationship is. Why was Avril so evasive? Is it because Bonnie and Ivor are more than friends, as I suspected? If so, I should strengthen my relationship with Bonnie, or Ivor will steal her from me.'

Later, Andreas put his thoughts into action. After class, he rushed to the Knight Group. Ivor was surprised when Floyd told him Andreas had come looking for him. Ivor composed himself and said, "Bring him in. Floyd."

"Right away, Mr. Ivor," Floyd replied and brought the prince in.

Ivor looked at Andreas and asked, "Your Highness, why did you come so far to see me?"

Andreas sat across from Ivor at the desk. The former scratched his head and said gingerly, "I-I have a unique favor to ask of you. I'm not sure if you'll agree to it."

"You can tell me what it is, and I'll help you if it's within my capabilities," Ivor said, thinking of Andreas as a friend.

Since Andreas was alone in a foreign country, he had no one to depend on. Hence, Ivor did not turn him down when he asked for help.

"I'll cut to the chase, then." After a short pause, Andreas said, "If I remember, you have a massive rose garden at your villa."

Ivor nodded. "Indeed, I do. Do you need something from there?"

Andreas blushed when he considered what to say next. Soon after, he said, "Um, I want to propose to the girl I love in your rose garden."

"Oh, is she here in Pyralis?" Ivor

frowned, thinking of Bonnie. He was about to ask Andreas about it but immediately remembered what Bonnie had told him the previous

day.

'If Bonnie finds out I questioned Andreas, she'll think I don't trust her. I should keep her name out of this.'

"Yeah, she is." Andreas nodded

enthusiastically as Bonnie's face

appeared in his mind, causing him to

blush even more. "We've known

each other for a long time and even

shared a horrifying experience.

"I confessed my love for her after that, and she agreed to be with me. Now, I just have to propose to her. We'll be together forever once she finally agrees."Chapter

Ivor asked, "Does that mean you and the girl you like are in love with each other?"

"We are!" Andreas replied firmly, "I've asked her to be my wife and princess. Since she agreed, I can confidently say she loves me."

Ivor had been doubtful since yesterday. After hearing Andreas's words, Ivor's doubts vanished.

'I thought something funny was happening between Andreas and Bonnie since she responded that way. However, I had misunderstood Bonnie, considering what she said.

'Since Andreas loves someone else,

he and Bonnie are only friends. He can't have any questionable feelings for her. That explains why she was so upset yesterday.'

The longer Ivor pondered, the guiltier he felt.

'I must apologize to Bonnie properly when she returns from the research institute.'
