Chapter 68
Bonnie lifted the skirt of her dress a little and walked down the stairs gracefully. She looked
exceptionally beautiful, like an angel who had descended from heaven or a fairy who had walked out of an exquisite painting.
“1–Isn’t this Hamish’s best work?” Floyd stuttered as he recognized the dress.
Ivor came back to his senses and looked at the dress. Wasn’t this the dress he had tried so hard to get?
Bonnie stood in front of them, “Yeah, You’re right. This is Hamish’s best work.”
Ivor frowned. “How did you get it?”
“I got it because I could,” Bonnie said truthfull
“I heard that the chairman of Tang Fusion Studios reserved it.” Ivor continued to frown and stare at
her.
After a pause, Bonnie nonchalantly said, “The chairman of Tang Fusion Studios gave it to me as a gift.”
“Why did he give you such an expensive dress? How did you meet the chairman? What’s your relationship with him?” Ivor’s eyes grew more menacing with each question he asked.
Bonnie felt the room getting colder and connected the dots between the dress and the time when Ivor had told her not to cheat on him. In conclusion, Ivor was overthinking things again.
“Firstly, the chairman of Tang Fusion Studios is a woman. As for why she gave it to me and the nature of our relationship, that’s part of my private life. I won’t reveal that part of me to you, even if you push me.”
“She’s a lady? Did you say the chairman’s a lady?” Ivor sounded surprised.
“Yeah. So you can stop worrying about us having an affair.”
“That’s not what I meant. I didn’t think you’d do such a thing,” He explaiped hastily.
Bonnie just laughed.
Ivor felt embarrassed, but he didn’t let it show.
After that, Ivor took Bonnie to the biggest mountain resort in Pyralis, where the family dinner party was being held this year.
“This place is huge. Try not to leave my sight.” Ivor looked at her with a worried expression and said, “If someone tries to stir up trouble with you, just let me know.”
Bonnie could tell that the last part of the sentence was the most important. He was worried that a hick from the suburbs like her had never seen a party like this.
“Don’t worry. I won’t do anything inappropriate and embarrass you. I’ve been to many events like

this.” She had gone to a palace in a foreign country and had even sat with a prince and the descendants of the nobles. She wasn’t fazed by this party at all.

gaze on her and failed to detect any nervousness from her expression. Was she doing
a good job at hiding it? Or had she really been to many events like this?
At that moment, the steward who was hosting the party came over. “I’m sorry, Mr. Ivor. There’s been
a situation, and we need you to fix it.”
He turned to look at Bonnie. “Do you want to come along with me?”
Was he treating her like a child? Was he worried she’d get lost? Thought Bonnie.
“Go ahead. I’m going to grab some food.”
“Sure. Just call me if anything happens,” said Ivor concernedly.
“Alright. Loud and clear.”
Ivor was still worried about her. He turned to Jim, who looked relaxed, and said, “Keep her safe.”
Jim nodded. “Roger that.”
He clicked his tongue as Ivor left. “I think he cares about you.”
Bonnie raised her brows and said, “Did you learn to gossip while you were out of the country?”
Jim just scratched the back of his head.
Then, Bonnie heard a shrill scream.
“Your dress, Bonnie! Isn’t it Hamish’s best work? How did it find its way to you?!”
