Chapter 172

“You don’t have faith in me. Do you? Just wait. You'll see.”

Since Bonnie was not going to tell tvor everything, he decided not to pry for more information.

“Can you clean yourself up? Your getup upsets me.” He knew it was all fake, but he couldn’t help but feel

heartbroken at the sight of it.

“Sure. I'll hop in the shower now.”

Ivor waited until she got into the bathroom before looking at Jim, who was about to leave. The former addressed

Jim and asked, “Hey, why do you seem to care about her very much?”

Jim calmly responded, “It’s my job to keep her safe. | believe caring about her is part of my job.”

“You say that, but it looks like she means so much more to you. Did you two know each other before you started

working here?” Ivor stared at him. The wisdom in his eyes was unmistakable.

“Nope.”

“Really?”

“I solemnly swear that I, Tim Reid, have never known Ms. Bonnie in my life until | got this job! May God punish

‘I'm not Tim Reid, anyway. That alias didn’t know Bonnie before getting this job. Technically, I'm not

lying.’

Staring at Jim, Ivor said after a brief moment, “Dismissed.”

“Roger, Mr. Ivor.” Jim turned and left. He sighed in relief when he turned to leave, wondering if he had managed

to trick Ivor. However, Jim couldn't shake the feeling that Ivor didn’t wholly buy his story. Still, Ivor would not

have let Jim leave if he was suspicious.

Bonnie was taking a shower in the bathroom. So, she didn’t know about what happened between Ivor and Jim.

Thirty minutes had cand gone by the tshe finished showering.

After drying her hair, she felt exhausted and went to bed to sleep. She then pulled the blanket up and slipped in.

Suddenly, she sat upright and stared at Ivor, who was hiding in her blanket. “Wh-what are you doing in my

blanket?!”

“I'm keeping you safe.” He said matter-of-factly.

Her lips twitched helplessly. “That won't be necessary. Thanks for being thoughtful, but it’s late now. You should

go back to your room.”

However, Ivor feigned ignorance and continued to sleep in her blanket. Honestly, Bonnie felt moved by his

actions. Even so, she was not about to sleep with him just because he was considerate.

“Hey, Ivor. If you're not leaving, I'm going to walk away.”

“Don’t do that. Fine, I'll leave.” Pulling the blanket off, he sat up,

‘Why is he half-naked?”

Bonnie saw his bare body and pulled the blanket up to cover it. In response, Ivor smiled and asked, Are you

reluctant to letleave?”

Oh, how she wished she could kick him out of the bed. “Why aren't you wearing any clothes?”

“What made you think I'm naked? I'm wearing pants. You can see for yourself if you don’t believe me.” He

moved to lift the blanket to show it to her.

All she knew was that he was naked on the top half of his body. The blanket covered the lower half of his body.

So, she couldn't be sure if he was wearing anything underneath. Still, she wondered what she would do if he

weren't wearing anything.

‘Does he want to showhis thingy?‘

Bonnie was not about to risk it. When she grabbed his hand, he asked, “Are you trying to hold my hand? If that’s

the case, you could've just told me.’

The next moment, he cupped her hands. His hands were big and broad, while hers were tender and petite. Ivor

cupped Bonnie's hands so tightly that hers disappeared into his. She tried to pull them out, but it was futile.

“Letgo.”

Not only did he not let go, but he yanked her so that both of them would fall onto the bed together. A moment

later, he pulled her into his arms.
