I Love You, Miss Genius
Chapter 267
Mairiâs back wasnât exactly broad. She was quite slender. However, she stood before Bonnie and shielded her as Daken did a while ago.
âAvril and her family are kind souls.â Bonnie thought to herself.
That said, Mairi was insinuating Lornaâs parents didnât raise her well. Murray and Kirstyâs face turned red from fury. âDonât you think youâre a little harsh, Mairi?â
âHarsh? Look whoâs talking. Donât you think Lorna spoke rather harshly earlier? She had always been arrogant and impolite. She also doesnât show any respect to those older than her under normal circumstances. At first, I thought she was young. So, I let it slide and didnât say anything.
âDo I need to remind you what the occasion is today? Itâs my fiftieth birthday, yet she continued to run her mouth off before me! You donât see my daughter doing the same thing before you guys!â
Murray and Kirsty didnât have a good comeback for that. Mairi was right. It was her birthday. There was nothing they could say to excuse his daughterâs behavior.
âHeheheâ¦â Kirsty forced a smile on her face and said, âYeah. Youâre right. Lorna was in the wrong this time.â
Lornaâs eyes widened. âMomâ¦â
âThatâs enough, Lorna. Knock it off. Youâre an adult now. That means you have to mind. the way you carry yourself. Remember, weâre here to celebrate your Aunt Mairiâs birthday. Speaking of, didnât you prepare a gift for her? Hurry up and give it to her.â
Still pissed off, Lorna produced a gift and handed it to Mairi. âI saved for a long time to buy this gift for you, Aunt Mairi. Iâm aware that youâre not feeling well. So, I bought this for you. Itâll help.â
âFine. Thank you.â Mairi took it and gave it to Avril.
Avril opened the box and checked on it. She mumbled, âWhat a tiny ginseng. Moreover, it doesnât look like it was grown in the wild. That means itâs not worth much. How big of a fool does she think we are? My mom could drop dead the moment she ingests it.
Bonnie took a look at it and formed her judgment on the ginseng.
âThis ginseng is cultivated artificially for less than three years. It wonât take Momâs life

away, but it wonât help her, given her current condition.â
Avril regarded her puzzlingly and asked, âHow do you know so well about Momâs current condition?â
âI took the opportunity to check her pulse when she held my hands earlier,â Bonnie explained.
Avrilâs eyes widened in surprise. âDo you have medical knowledge as well?â
âYeah. I know enough to get by. I want to check her pulse properly when the partyâs over.â Bonnie had long heard that Mairi was very weak. So, she brought her trusty medkit with her when she came.
âAre you good at this?â Avril had massive respect for her right now.
Bonnie remained quiet for a couple of seconds before she leaned into Avrilâs ears and said, âAre you going to believe me if I tell you Iâm the miracle doctor who treated the mother of the SR Leagueâs owner?â
Avril nodded solemnly. âI sure do. That reminds me, I have a secret for you too.â
âWhat is it?â
âIâm Ms. Bonita, the renowned researcher in Pyralis.â
Bonnie remained quiet and didnât say anything.
Avril looked at Bonnieâs stern expression and burst out laughing. âHahaha!â
âWhat do you think? My jokeâs better than yours. Right?â Raising her hand, Bonnie held her forehead.
âWhat a pain in the butt. Perhaps I should stop revealing my secret identities. No oneâll believe me, anyway.â
At the next moment, Lorna turned to Bonnie and said, âYouâre Aunt Mairiâs goddaughter now, Bonnie. Did you come emptyâhanded to her fiftieth birthday party?â
Avril and Mairi stepped forward simultaneously.
