I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 367

Bonnie stood up and quietly peeked out the door, but nobody was there.

Then, out of the corner of her eyes, she saw the figure again. She dashed to the window, leaped out of it, and subdued the figure by grabbing his arm and twisting it back.

“Ahh! That hurts! You’re going to break my arm!”

Bonnie recognized the voice and loosened her grip. She was confused when she saw that it was Ged. She asked , “What are you doing here?”

“Who did you think it was?! You almost broke my arm, damn it!”

“Hey, you can’t blame me. Why were you acting so shifty in the first place? You could’ve walked through the front gate instead of using the window.”

Ged was exasperated, saying, “You have lvor to thank for that. He’s always so jealous of anyone who gets near you.”

Bonnie had no idea what he was talking about. She asked, “What does this have to do with Ivor?”

“You know how he is, Bonnie. He gets jealous of everything. I just praised you for your looks, talents, and combat skills the other day, and he got pissed off and insisted on fighting me. Hc even said he needed to spar because he hadn’t been working out.”

Ged recalled Ivor kicking his ass. The former’s muscles grew sore at the mere thought of it.

“So what if he did? That has nothing to do with what you told me and that you were sneaking into my place.”

“Fine, I’ll cut to the chase. I recently set up a boxing gym, and we’ ll start recruiting students tomorrow. As you know, people tend to challenge gyms. Still, I don’t know anyone good enough to defend mine.

I came to ask for your help.”

Ged paused momentarily and added, “1 didn’t want Ivor to find out 1 came here because I only want your help, not his. That’s why I was sneaking around.”

‘So that’s what he intended,’ Bonnie thought.

“All right, I'll be there tomorrow.”

Ged grinned and said, “Perfect! 1 owe you one, Bonnie. I'll do everything 1 can to repay you.”

The following day, Bonnie followed Ged to his new boxing gym. She had just arrived when Ivor called Ged, asking, “Did you just take Bonnie out somewhere?”

Ged sighed and said, “I need her for a while. Come on. Sharing is caring, right?”

Ivor questioned, “Would you have been okay if someone took your wife out?”

Ged replied through gritted teeth, “I wouldn't have if she went out with someone | didn’t know. However, 1’d be fine if she went out with you. If Bonnie’s okay with it, you can take my wife out however long you need.”

Ged grinned and looked at Bonnie, asking, “Would that bother you, Bonnie?”

Ivor’s lips twitched as he said, “Fine, you win this time!”

Ged could burst out laughing now. He had been friends with Ivor for a long time and could never beat [vor at anything. Finally, Ged pulled one over Ivor.

Bonnie looked around the boxing gym interior and said, “The interior design looks good.”

“Of course it does. I spared no expense in building this place. You see —” Before Ged could finish, a group of men appeared at the entrance.

The leader in all black approached Ged and asked, “Do you own this place?” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Yeah, I do. It doesn't look like you guys are here to enroll.” Suddenly, Ged’s eyes widened. He recognized the emblem on their shirts. These men came from the Warrior’s Way Boxing Club. Ged asked, “Are you here to challenge us?”

“Precisely. Our boxing club is just a few blocks down. Since you set up your gym here, you intend to take our customers. You aren’t playing by the rules, my friend.” Trystan , the leader, arrogantly tugged at Ged’s shirt.

Ged grew annoyed and pushed Trystan, saying, “What rules? I’ve never heard of such a thing. If that’s true, then boutiques can’t be next to each other. What about restaurants? That’s such a bullshit rule.

“You must be scared of a little competition because you guys are bad at running a business. You’re just worried I'll take all your customers.”
