Chapter 342
Sebastian was cautious with several concerns, while Jordynn was his polar opposite. She was worry–free and typically spoke her mind.
7 used to think Bonnie was a good–for–nothing with a poor character. I didn’t think she was good enough. for Ivor. However, I’ve learned that every rumor about her is unfounded. She’s talented and noble. Also, she’s knowledgeable in medicine.”
“She has medical knowledge?” Sebastian looked at Bonnie curiously.
“That’s right! Not only that, she’s also excellent at it. I dislocated my foot yesterday, and she pushed it
back into place.”
Ivor turned to squint at Bonnie when he heard that.
Sebastian joked, “I’m surprised you’re so talented at such a young age. No wonder Ivor fell for you. After all, he’s dense and never showed much interest In girls.”
“That’s enough, Sebastian! I’ll leave you and Ivor to it and take Bonnie to the orchard now. Oh, right! Tell me when Dr. Fanelli arrives!” Jordynn said excitedly before leaving.
Under normal circumstances, Bonnie would have sunk her teeth into the various fruits in the orchard. However, she felt troubled and had to slip away quickly. Otherwise, Fanelli would never show up at the
party.
“Jordynn, my stomach’s feeling a little funny. Where’s the restroom?”
Jordynn worriedly looked at Bonnie’s belly and asked, “Did you eat something your tummy doesn’t agree with? Are you okay? I can call the family doctor if you want.”
Bonnie said smilingly, “You’re forgetting I have medical knowledge. There’s nothing to worry about. Like you said, I might’ve just eaten something that doesn’t sit well with me. A trip to the restroom should take
care of it.”
Jordynn was relieved to hear that. She pointed to the hallway on their left and said, “The restroom’s over there. Come on, I’ll show you the way.”
“That won’t be necessary. You can go out front and wait for Dr. Fanelli. He might show up soon.” Bonnie’s
words made Jordynn’s heart race.
“Fine, I’ll go wait for him out front. Promise me you’ll call me if you’re feeling too bad.”
“Okay, I promise. Now, go on.” Bonnie watched as Jordynn left. Immediately after the latter disappeared around the corner, Bonnie climbed out of the orchard. She landed near a bag she had hidden in the
bushes earlier.
She then retrieved the clothes in the bag and disguised herself as Fanelli before going to the main entrance. When she reached the gate, she saw an excited Jordynn running over to welcome her.
“You’re finally here, Dr. Fanelli! I’ve been waiting for you for so long. What was the holdup? Were you stuck
in traffic?” Jordynn said with a big smile.
“Yeah, traffic was terrible.” Bonnie then sensed someone else staring at her. She steadied herself and turned to see who it was. Of course, it was Ivor with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
Sebastian patted Ivor’s shoulder and said, “They say it’s much easier for a girl to win a man’s heart than vice versa. Considering how enthusiastic Jordynn Is, It’s safe to say she’ll win over Dr. Fanelli soon.”
“It’s still too early to tell.” Ivor continued to gaze at Bonnie.
“What do you mean?” Sebastian was surprised.
Instead of explaining himself, Ivor took his phone and called Bonnie. “We’re sorry. The person you called. is unavailable. Please try again later.”
Although Bonnie looked like she was chatting with Jordynn, the former monitored Ivor out of the corner of her eye. She noticed him using his phone. However, she could not see what was on his phone screen since she stood some distance away.
Still, she guessed it was likely he was trying to call her. Fortunately, she had expected it and turned off her phone.
Since Ivor had failed to call Bonnie, he approached Jordynn and asked, “Where’s Bonnie? I thought she was just with you.”
“She had a tummy issue and went to the restroom.”
“Tummy issues?” Ivor frowned. “Which one did she go to?”
“It’s the one by the orchard. You know where it is.”
Ivor tucked his phone back into his pocket and said, “I’ll go and look for her.”
Immediately after, he strode toward the orchard. With that, he walked briskly toward the orchard.
