Chapter 175
“Ivor Knight!” Bonnie punched him.
“Owie…” Neville, who was watching them from upstairs, covered his eyes. What happened was too graphic for someone his age.
Afterward, Ivor went to work with a black eye, shocking everyone. Although it was apparent someone had punched him, he still grinned.
Even Floyd could not take it, saying, “Ahem, I know you’re happy Ms. Bonnie gave you a black eye, but shouldn’t we focus on what’s important now, Mr. Ivor?”
“What do you mean?” Ivor asked in puzzlement.
Floyd’s lips twitched. “Did you forget that you and your grandmother have an appointment with the miracle doctor?”
Finally, Ivor remembered it. “What time’s the appointment?”

Floyd checked the time and asked, “We have another hour until then. Should I call the miracle doctor now?”
“Mhm.”
Shortly after, Bonnie received a text and was about to reply when she received a call from Vera. Frowning, she fell into deep thought.
‘Mom and Dad have never called me once since disowning me. It’s like their official tweet said: I’m no longer a member of the Shepard family. They don’t care if I’m dead or alive. So, why’s Mom calling me? Does she want to ask about the time I humiliated Brittany?‘

Bonnie answered the call and said indifferently, “What is it?”
“Come and get your things now.”
“I’m busy. Maybe tomorrow.”
“I need to empty your room so that they can renovate it into a makeshift lab for Trina. The contractor will be here soon. If you’re not coming to take your things, I’ll tell the servants to toss them into the garbage.”
Bonnie’s expression turned cold. After all, there was some personal stuff in her room, including notes on essential things and her journal.
“We’re not being heartless or unreasonable. Professor Paul from Pyralis University is Trina’s mentor and has high hopes for her. He even claims she will make crucial contributions to science in the future.
“He visited us yesterday and emphasized that we must give our utmost support to Trina and build her a lab if possible. That’ll allow her to conduct her research peacefully.

“As you know, your room is the only available one now. So, if you refuse to collect your things, we’ll have to take care of it ourselves,” Vera said casually,
Bonnie remained calm and did not let it affect her. “Pine, I’m coming.”
After hanging up the phone, she texted Floyd. “I’m sorry. There’s an emergency. I’ll see you tonight.”
Half an hour later, Bonnie stood before the place she used to call home. She looked calm and distant. Although, Bonne had planned to return and collect her things once Lenfeild Resort was complete. She never expected her former family to be so impatient.
Perhaps she should have expected it. After all, she was no longer a member of the family. Having her stuff in their house was pretty troublesome for them and herself.
