Chapter 265
‘I know what Mr. Ivor is thinking, but I don’t want to ask him about it. I don’t want to hear about his
lovey–dovey story with Bonnie.‘
Suddenly, Ivor looked at Floyd, hinting for him to ask about his thoughts. The latter wished to wipe
the sweat off his forehead, asking, “Um, what’s on your mind, Mr. Ivor?”
Ivor felt satisfied. He said, “I was just thinking about Bonnie. I wonder how everything’s going for her
at the Shepards‘. Do you think they’ll pick on her again?”
Floyd pouted, thinking, ‘I knew it.”
“If I know Ms. Bonnie well enough, no one can pick on her. Also, didn’t you send Jim–I mean, Tim,
to watch over her? Everything will be okay with him around, Mr. Ivor.”
“Tim Reid, huh?” Ivor mumbled.
Floyd’s heart raced as he stammered, “I–Is there something wrong with Tim?”
Ivor squinted and said, “There’s more to him than meets the eye.”
Floyd tensed as he thought, “That’s obvious. His real identity is Jim freaking Ryan!‘
Mairi, Avril’s mother, was celebrating her birthday today. So, Bonnie visited early in the morning.
Avril pulled Bonnie to her mother, saying, “Hurry, my mom can’t wait to meet you!”
“Bonnie, you’re finally here! I’ve been waiting to meet you!” Mairi held Bonnie’s hands warmly and
looked at her affectionately. “I’m weak and ill, so I can rarely–mingle in high society circles. I’ve only
ever heard about you until today.”
Bonnie giggled and said, “I don’t have a good reputation out there, unfortunately.”
“That’s nonsense.” Mairi frowned. “I don’t believe what people say about you. I find. most rumors
unfounded. I only care about what my family thinks about you. Avril loves. You and Daken a
of your character.
“As far as I’m concerned, you’re all right. The people who twist the truth and spread. false rumors
are nasty.”

Although it was Bonnie and Mairi’s first meeting, the former felt touched by what Mairi
said. Mairi took Bonnie’s hands and gestured for her to sit. “Come, you can sit next to me.”
Avril groaned and playfully complained, “Mom, how can you ignore your daughter just because
Bonnie’s here?”
“Oh, don’t be jealous, sweetie.” Mairi looked at Bonnie and said, “Speaking of daughters, did Avril
tell you about me wanting to become your godmother?”
Bonnie nodded and said, “Yeah, she mentioned it once.”
“Well, what do you think?” Mairi’s eyes widened as she looked at Bonnie longingly.
The latter could tell Mairi genuinely liked her. Bonnie pondered on it and considered how Avril had
always treated her. Then, she thought about what Mairi said earlier. Bonnie nodded and said, “I’d
be happy to be your goddaughter, Mairi.”
“That’s wonderful!” Mairi was so thrilled that she fist–pumped. She then looked at her husband and
daughter, saying, “Did you hear that? Bonnie’s willing to be my
goddaughter! Now, I have two daughters!”
Daken palmed his forehead helplessly as he looked at his ecstatic wife. “We have other guests,
honey. You might want to watch yourself.”
