I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 1429

It's nothing, just some reagents I made at home. The equipment here isn't enough, so I'm taking them to the lab to process further," Bonnie replied, her explanation seemingly plausible.

However, Ivor sensed something amiss. Narrowing his eyes, he stepped closer to scrutinize the bag in Bonnie's hand. It didn't look like it held reagents; it looked more like it held clothes.

"What kind of reagents? I'm quite interested. Can I have a look?" Ivor took another step forward.NôvelDrama.Org content.

Bonnie stepped back to maintain her distance from him. Ivor furrowed his brows upon seeing this.

"Bonnie, what are you doing?"

Despite her nervousness, Bonnie maintained her composure. If Ivor checked the bag and found clothes instead of reagents, her lie would be exposed. She needed another excuse.

Taking advantage of the situation, she hid the bag further behind her and looked at Ivor with a serious expression. "I told you, these are experimental chemicals. They contain residues that you shouldn't touch."

After realizing her concern, Ivor quickly apologized. "Sorry, Bonnie. I misunderstood."

Bonnie raised an eyebrow. "What? Do you think I'm hiding something from you?"

Though Ivor felt slightly embarrassed, he denied it. "No, I just hadn't seen you take anything to the lab before, so I asked out of curiosity."

Bonnie decided to change the

subject to avoid arousing more

suspicion. "Didn't you say you were

going to the ribbon-cutting

ceremony at Pyralis University?

Shouldn't you be leaving soon?

Aren't you worried about being late?"

Ivor glanced at his watch. "You're right, it's getting late. I need to go. I can't accompany you to the lab today, but I'll pick you up later."

"It's fine. I'm not a child who needs

and

to be picked up and dropped off," Bonnie said while waving her dismissively. "Go take care of your business. Don't worry about me."

"Okay," Ivor nodded before hurriedly leaving.

As Ivor walked away, Bonnie let out a sigh of relief. Not wasting any time, she headed to the garage, took her car, and drove quickly to the university.

Both Ivor and Bonnie needed to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, so she had to be quick to arrive on time.

When Ivor arrived at Pyralis University, several high-level staff and professors came out to greet him. He scanned the area but didn't see the president.

"Where's the president? Hasn't she arrived yet?" Ivor asked.

The staff and professors exchanged glances before Professor Paul Logan stepped forward. "The president is on her way. Don't worry,

Mr. vor. She will be here in time for the ribbon-cutting."
