I Love You, Miss Genius

Bonnie gave Sydney a cold, menacing gaze that stopped her before she could say anything more.

"Aunt Sydney, you've been picking fights constantly, but it's about time you stop!"

Sydney's face darkened, but Bonnie's commanding voice rang out again before she could respond.

"I'm calling you Aunt out of respect and politeness. But at the very least, you should act like an elder. Don't think that just because I've been speaking nicely to you, you can walk all over me! If it weren't for your son, Ivor, and Grandpa, I would've kicked you out long ago!"

Previously, Bonnie had decided not to stoop to Sydney's level, considering that it was her and Ivor's wedding day. However, Sydney hadn't shown self-control. On the contrary, she had grown even more domineering.

Sydney could feel the intense hostility emanating from Bonnie, her face turning paler with each passing second.

Seeing this, Maisie slowly got out of her chair and moved to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Bonnie.

"Bonnie's words are my words! If you dare to cause trouble again, not only will she take action against you, but I will too!"

Maisie's presence alone exuded a commanding aura.

Sydney looked from Maisie to Bonnie, her fear causing her legs to turn jelly.

Bonnie and Maisie were the renowned disciples of Master Arturo. With her frail physique and lack of fighting skills, Sydney was no match for them!

Gunnar quickly stepped forward to

support the shaky Sydney. He then said in a low and resigned voice. "Didn't I tell you not to speaknow? Look at the mess you've created..." en.swhovels.net

He sighed heavily before continuing, "Staying here won't help. Should we head back?"

Overwhelmed by Bonnie and

Maisie's combined presence, Sydney

became pale and had difficulty breathing. She had already wanted

to leave but had been holding on to maintain a semblance of dignity.

Now that Gunnar had spoken, she seized the opportunity to retreat without losing too much face. "Then tell Dad, and let's leave quickly!"

Staying here had become a torment for her. She didn't want to stay a moment longer!

Gunnar patted her shoulder reassuringly before turning to Sigmund. "Dad, Sydney isn't feeling well. I'll take her home. Please continue your conversation."

Sigmund's face remained stern, and he coldly responded after a moment, "Go ahead."

"Maisie, we're leaving now," Gunnar nodded slightly to Maisie before helping Sydney leave.

Maisie frowned, watching their retreating figures, "I remember Sydney wasn't like this before. What happened to her?"

Bonnie thought back to the origins

of her conflict with Sydney, a story too complicated to explain in a few sentences. So, she casually replied, "Maybe Aunt Sydney just doesn't like me. But it's okay, I won't let myself be bullied."
