I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 1162

Francesco knew the situation's seriousness and dared not take it lightly. He nodded and responded, " Understood, Mr. Billy. I'll keep my eyes on him and watch for any suspicious behavior."

"Perfect," Billy said as he returned to the screen to observe "Bonnie."

Meanwhile, Bonnie had predicted their behavior and did not worry about it. She thought, 'If Billy enjoys staring at me through the screen, he can do so to his heart's content. Let's play the waiting game.'

She made it look like she was scrolling through her phone absentmindedly but was texting Collin instead. She even put a privacy screen protector on her phone, which was much better than the ones on the market.

If she wanted to hide something, no one could see it. Moreover, she was confident in her inventions. That was why she could freely text Collin, even though she was under strict surveillance.

Collin's text read, "How'd the interview go, Chief? Did you pass the tests? Have you seen the chip yet?" Bonnie felt speechless when she read the text. She rolled her eyes and replied, "Do you think Billy's a fool? He wouldn't let me work on the chip immediately after passing the test. That would be risky for him."

Collin responded, "I didn't think he'd be this cautious. Did he say when he'll let you work on it?"

She texted, "Billy hasn't mentioned the chip once since I showed up. He also set up hidden cameras in my room. It'll be a while before he lets me see the chip."

Collin patted his chest and sighed in relief. "Fortunately, I didn't go instead. I would've been careless and screwed everything up."

"Are you admitting you're careless?" Bonnie could not help but smile.

He sent an embarrassed-looking emoji and texted, "I'm not that careless, but I can't compare to you." She shook her head and replied, "That's enough chit-chat. You better prepare things earlier than the designated time. I'll give you a signal before we start our operation. Don't drop the ball, got it?"

He responded, "Come on, it concerns life and death, Chief. Must you constantly remind me to take it seriously? I hope I don't seem that unreliable to you."

"That's not what I said. It was just a reminder," Bonnie texted back. That was when she sensed something and ended her conversation, "All right, I need to do something now. Don't text me unless it's an emergency."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Collin read her text and stopped replying. He put down his phone and was about to prepare for the deployment when someone knocked on the door. Displeased, he frowned and muttered, "Who the hell is that? They couldn't have come at a worse time. I was about to work on something urgent."

He stood up and went to open the door. He was surprised to see Yasmine, saying, "Mr. Boyd isn't around. Also, why are you still here?"
