    “Okay.” Bonnie didn’t resist and let Ivor lead her away.


    Halle and Rowena’s faces went from shocked to disbelief, all the way to denial. It was a sight to


    see.


    “What on earth happened, Halle? Has Ivor really fallen for her? What should I do if that really is


    true?” Rowena wa

    upset. She looked like she was about to burst into tears.


    ‘Stop it. Ivor has taste. There was no way he’d fall in love with Bonnie.”


    “You say that, but he bought her an expensive dress. How do we exin that?”


    ‘Maybe he just wanted to preserve the honor of his branch of the family.”


    “Well… He held her hand too. He’s never held any woman’s hands, not even mine. How do we


    exin


    that?”


    Halle scratched her head. She didn’t have an answer for that. In fact, she would love to know.


    When Bonnie and Ivor had walked far enough away from Halle and Rowena, she said, “Thanks for


    that.” She raised her ss. Ivor lightly clinked her ss with his. “That was my duty. No thanks are


    necessary.


    “Although…” She frowned slightly.


    “What is it?”


    She turned her head to look at Rowena, who wasn’t that far away. Then, she shot a deliberate gaze


    at him. “She seems to really like you. Haven’t you just squandered your chance at a romantic


    rtionship?”


    His lips curled into a smile. “Listen to yourself. Are you jealous?”


    “I’m many things, but I’m not jealous.”


    Ivor had been a little happy, but he looked glum after he heard what she said.


    Halle and Rowena were cooking up a n to teach Bonnie a lesson. They were trying to find a way


    to


    humiliate her.


    They approached Bonnie again. Halle raised her voice so she could attract some attention to


    themselves. “You once told me that you were good at flower arranging, Bonnie. What a


    coincidence.. Rowena’s good at it too. Maybe you two should have apetition. It doesn’t matter


    who wins. It’ll just add something fun to the party. What do you think?”


    Ivor leaned closer to Bonnie and whispered, “Do you know your way around flower arranging?”


    “I know enough to get by, but I’ve never told them that.”


    Suddenly, it hit Ivor. They were doing this on purpose.

    “Hey, Bonnie! Why aren’t you answering me? Are you going to chicken out? Like I said, it doesn’t


    matter who wins. It’s just a game. Are you going to disrespect us by turning us down? Or do you


    just think you’re too good for Rowena?”


    The other guests heard themotion and cast strange nces at Bonnie. They began to murmur.


    Ivor squinted at the pushy Halle. As he started to say something, Bonnie stepped up.


    “Let’s do it, but we’ll need to have some stakes. Otherwise, it’ll be a waste of time.”


    “Sure. What’s on your mind?”
