Chapter 25
“The engagement might not have been our idea, but don’t forget that you’re still my fiancée for a month, Bonnie. You shouldn’t date any other guys, okay?”
Bonnie looked over her shoulder and said drily, “Just date some other girls, and we’ll call it even.”
Ivor was at a loss for words.
“Let’s go,” said Bonnie to Heath. They left together.
Ivor stated after her and pursed his lips.
Ged couldn’t help but say, “Bonnie is really something else. She fixes robots, she fights, and she’s also turned out to be The Shepherd. I guess she’s not the loser we thought she was. You should cherish her, Ivor. She might be full of shit sometimes, but I think she’s good enough for you.”
Ivor frowned, and his gaze became pensive.

After having lunch with Heath, Bonnie went home to pack her clothes.
“What are you doing?” Vera was puzzled.
“I’m going to move out so I can focus on preparing for the college entrance test,” Bonnie said as she filled her luggage.
“Where are you going? Have you found a place?”
“Uh–huh.”
“Where is it? What’s the rent?”
Vera was worried that Bonnie would find an expensive place to stay.
Bonnie knew what she was concerned about. “It’s not as expensive as where Trina moved to.”
But Vera was alarmed.
Two years ago, the rent for Trina’s place was more than 3,000 dollars. A cheaper place would still cost. around 2,000 dollars a month.
“Can’t you find a cheaper place? I’ll try to find one for you.”
Vera opened a rental app as she spoke and said, “Look at this. It’s only a few hundred dollars a
month, and there’s an en suite bathroom.”
Bonnie looked at the photo. The room looked like it was in terrible condition, and it didn’t even have a
desk.
“So am I supposed to study on the bed?”

Vera supposed that Bonnie did need a desk.
“How about this on? There’s a bed, a desk, a closet, and even an air conditioner. It’s a bit more expensive though. Around 400 bucks.” Vera seemed very concerned about the cost.
Bonnie narrowed her eyes.
“You never complained about the rent when Trina moved out.”
“You’re n not her, okay?” Vera blurted out. Bonnie just stared. Vera caught herself.
“Well, it’s not that I’m partial to her, but her results were great, and it seemed likely that she would get into Pyralis University.”
