Chapter 165
Bonnie did not know how to respond to Ivor. She thought there was no way he was not joking
“Really? You might want to get that looked at. It might be an early symptom of bedroom performance, Ivor.”
Ivor leaned close to her and said seductively, “I’ll trust you to check on it, then.”
Although the cool breeze blew past them, Bonnie’s cheeks reddened. “Hey, I can’t help you if you can’t get it up. You should get it checked at the hospital.”
“Come on, I thought you said you knew a thing or two about medicine. Here, you can take a look at it now.” Ivor suddenly pulled Bonnie toward him, causing her to panic and withdraw her hand quickly.
“What do you think you’re doing?!”
Ivor smiled, saying, “Why are you getting so worked up? I just grabbed your hand because I needed you to check my pulse. Get your mind out of the gutter.
Bonnie pursed her lips, thinking, ‘He did that on purpose!‘
“I shouldn’t have brought you to the coast when it’s just us two.” She turned and left.
However, Ivor quickly grabbed her hand and pulled her back, causing her to stagger and fall into his chest. Bonnie was stunned before gathering herself and stepping away. She was about to hit him when he let go.
Ivor apologized sincerely, “I’m sorry for going too far with my jokes.”
“Do you think an apology will suffice?”
“What else do you have in mind? You punish me however you see fit.”
Bonnie was at a loss for a moment before saying, “Let’s head back.”
“Already? Aren’t we going to take in the coastal view?”
“I don’t feel like it anymore.”
Ivor visited Tang Fusion Studios the following day. Hamish even told his employee to brew some tea for Ivor. “To what do I owe the pleasure, Mr. Ivor?”
Ivor pulled out a checkbook, saying, “Let’s get down to brass tax. I want Lenfield Resort’s
development rights. You can name any price you see fit.”
“As I see fit? What if I name a price that far exceeds what Lenfield Resort is worth?”
“Like I said, name a price.”
Hamish could tell Ivor was not joking. “I’m curious about something. Lenfield Resort might be
2/2
immensely profitable, but you possess several properties that can rake in as much as this resort. However, you seem to like this one more than the others.”
“Cards on the table, I’m doing it to win my future wife’s heart.” Ivor looked Into Hamish’s eyes, speaking earnestly.
“Ahem, cough, cough!” Hamish choked on his tea. “You mean Bonnie?”
“Yeah, that’s her. She’s looking for a place to stay and loves the land Lenfield Resort would inevitably stand on. For the record, I promised I’d give her the best villa there ever was,”
Hamish was shocked and did not know how to respond for a moment. After gathering his thoughts, he asked, “Did you tell her you were coming here?”

“I want it to be a surprise. I’d appreciate it if you do me this favor, Hamish. Please give me Lenfield Resort’s development rights. I’ll make it worth your while. Additionally, I’ll do everything in my power to lend your company a hand if you ever need me.”
“Well…” Hamish massaged his temples. “I’m honored Knight Group is willing to collaborate with my company. I’d be happy to sell you the development rights. Still, I’m just the CEO. I’ll have to ask for my chairman’s opinion, too.”
