I Love You Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) CHAPTER 362

Chapter 362

“If it’s a minor role, I’ll try it.”

“Which minor character are you referencing?”

“Freya,” the director replied.

“Oh, wow!” Orpheus exclaimed delightfully, “You’ll be playing my ex–wife, Bonwick!”

Although Bonnie finished writing this novel several years ago, she remembered Freya as the male lead’s ex–wife who died while shielding him from deadly arrows. Since Bonnie would not have much screen time, she could probably take a day to finish shooting her parts.

“All right, I’ll give it a go.”

Xavier did not know what to feel. At that moment, he could be the only person who knew

that Bonnie was Ms. Bonita.

“If Bonnie’s real identity leaks, the TV drama will be a sensation when it comes out. The other dramas” ratings will take a plunge then.‘

Nancy was teary–eyed as she approached Bonnie and apologized, “I’m sorry for everything that happened just now. I–I didn’t even know-”

“You didn’t spike the drink, so you have nothing to apologize for.” Bonnie held the bowing

Nancy up.

“Still, I was an accomplice. I shouldn’t have succumbed to Tatiana when she threatened to fire me. My mom will be so mad when she finds out I sold my soul for money. I don’t think I can forgive myself.” Nancy wiped her tears.

‘I’ll never do anything like that again.‘

Bonnie looked at her calmly and said, “Now that Tatiana is no longer a part of the industry, the female lead role is wide open. How about you give it a shot?”

“Huh?” Nancy was utterly stunned.

“Orpheus told me you and Tatiana graduated from Pyralis Film Academy. Also, you’re as good–looking as Tatiana, if not prettier.

Nancy palmed her cheek and said shyly, “Are you sure I can? Although I graduated from Pyralis Film Academy, I’ve never acted in a TV drama. I’m worried I’ll-”

“You need money to keep your mom’s treatment going, right? Based on your current

situation, you need an actress’s salary to take some of the weight off your shoulders.” Bonnie continued to convince Nancy,

The latter was starting to see things Bonnie’s way.

Bonnie added, “I admire you for doing everything you can for your mom. You love her so much that you worked for Tatiana and subjected yourself to humiliation. Also, you. originally came from a wealthy family, correct?

“I can imagine how much working for Tatiana has hurt your dignity. If you could do that, you shouldn’t shy away from taking the female lead role.”

Nancy looked into Bonnie’s unwavering eyes and remembered their shared background and history. The former suddenly understood why Bonnie genuinely wanted to help her even though they barely knew each other.

Nancy felt a lump in her throat as she said, “Th–thank you, Ms. Bonnie.”

Orpheus whispered, “Bonwick, are you helping her because you share a similar history?”

“I guess you can say that,” Bonnie admitted.

Orpheus looked at Nancy and clicked his tongue before saying, “She’s quite pretty. Still, she’s too frail and defenseless for the role. I doubt she can portray the female lead’s hardiness and decisiveness.‘

His words did not faze Bonnie. She said, “You have it all wrong.

“What do you mean?”

“Here, I’ll give you a scenario. Can you keep yourself together and say nothing if your buddy turns on you and makes you his bitch? What would you do if he began to beat and threaten you?”

“Hell no! I’d die from keeping my frustrations to myself!” Orpheus grew triggered at the thought of it.

“There’s your answer. I believe Nancy can pull it off. Do you still think she’s frail and defenseless?”
