I Love You Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) CHAPTER 50
I Love You, Miss Genius
Chapter 50
âBang!â Harold smacked his hand on the desk and glared at Bonnie, enraged, âYou gave us a counterfeit but youâre still trying to act like youâre right? Youâve gone too far!â
âThere, there. Donât be mad, Grandpa. Mind your health. Thatâs just how Bonnie is. Itâs not worth jeopardizing your health over this.â Trina went over to Harold quickly and patted his back lightly.
Yolanda was infuriated as well. She gritted her teeth, stepped forward, and tore the painting to pieces before throwing it into a nearby trash can.
Trina was feeling better about herself now.
Bonnie had gone through all that trouble to gain favor with their grandparents and everyone else, but it didnât matter in the end. All she had to do was use a little trick, and it had rendered her efforts useless. There was no way a nobody could ever get the best of the rich!
But Trina pretended to be worried and tried to resolve the issue at hand. âThis is big, Grandpa, Grandma. You should tell everyone to keep this to themselves so Master Orson wonât find out about it. The Steeles probably wouldnât hold us responsible as long as we keep it under wraps.â
âThatâs right. I was so mad I almost forgot. Itâs a good thing you thought about it, Trina!â Harold looked at her gratefully and turned to make an announcement.
âI hope all youâll all do me a favor and refrain from spreading tonightâs incident around. Youâll have my thanks for that, everyone.
Î
âThereâs no need for that, Mr. Harold. We wonât say a word about what happened tonight.
âExactly! This all just boils down to an ignorant child not knowing any better. But it might lead to disaster if you donât handle it properly. Weâll keep this a secret for you this time, but I canât make the same promise if it happens again.
âYou have to discipline her. There are all kinds of big shots here in Pyralis. What will you do if she gets you in bigger trouble? It might not be that easy to solve the problem next time!â
went on.
The Shepards grew even more scared as the guests wer
Bonnie was bewildered. Everyone was out of their minds. She had just said the painting was the real deal. Wasnât it a disaster when Yolanda tore up the painting? Why were they giving her such a hard time?
She said helplessly, âI told you the painting was genuine, Grandpa, but you went ahead and destroyed it. Youâre in the wrong here.â
Everyone in the hall was stunned at what she said. Harold was so mad he almost passed out. He raised his hand. âBonnie Shepard. Iâm going to slap you so hard, youâllâ¦â
Î
Suddenly, someone exclaimed from outside the door, âMaster Orson of the Steele family is here!â
Silence tell in the hall immediately.
âMaster Orson? Is that the same Master Orson we were just talking about?â
eriously? Master Orson is a prestigious man. None of us here could possibly reach someone of his status even if we wanted to Whatâs he doing here?â
Soon, Orson appeared with his granddaughter, Kay, in tow.
âGood grief! It really is Master Orson!â
âWhatâs he doing in a place like this? Is this a dream?â
âWell, itâs Harold and Yolandaâs birthday today. Could Master Orson be here to attend their party?â
âIf thatâs the case, he must really respect Harold!â
Harold and Yolanda stood up in excitement and shock. Had Master Orson come here to attend their party? They had never met him before, though!
But if he wasnât here to celebrate their birthday, there was no reason for him to be here.
âMaster Orson!â Harold couldnât be bothered with Bonnie anymore. He went over to welcome Orson. His hands were trembling and he could barely walk.
âThanks for the invitation, Harold.â Orson burst into laughter.
Had Master Orson just called him by his first name?
Harold was pleasantly surprised as the guests looked at him in jealousy.
âIâve come to attend you and your wifeâs birthday party, Harold. I painted something for you. I was supposed to give it to you personally, but I think your granddaughter, Master Bonnie, has already given it to you. I have some other gifts with me. I hope youâll like them!â
Everyone was shocked and cast glances at Bonnie.
Haroldâs mouth opened wide, and there was a humming in his head. He stuttered and asked, âE- Excuse me, Master Orson. DâDid you just say Master Bonnieâ¦?
