    “Will your rtionship not progress in the future?” Floyd was nervous, but not for himself. Instead, it


    was for his boss. After all, Jim was the King of Combat and one of the top ten bachelors in Pyralis.


    Jim put his arm around Floyd’s shoulders, whispering, “Honestly, I think Bonnie and your boss are


    quitepatible. I genuinely support it.”


    With Jim’s reassurance, Floyd felt relieved.


    “What are you guys talking about? Why are you being so secretive?” Bonnie stared at Floyd and


    Jim with a puzzled look.


    Jim smirked. “This is a conversation between men. It’s not suitable for you to hear.”


    Bonnie raised an eyebrow and clenched her fist. “What, are you still perpetuating gender


    stereotypes? Is it because I haven’t practiced for a long time, so you think I can’t wield a knife


    anymore?”


    “No, no, I’m just kidding,” Jim said awkwardly, patting his stomach. “I’m starving. Let’s grab supper.


    Floyd, care to join?”


    “It’s my honor.”


    Bonnie chuckled and shook her head at Jim’s swiftly retreating figure before following


    him.


    Two dayster, Bonnie received a message from Avril.


    “My mom’s birthday ising up soon. Everyone in the family ising to celebrate. You must

    “Don’t worry, I’ll be there.”

    Mrs. Bonnie checked the time on her phone. “Isn’t it only seven? I said I’d be here at seven, and I’m


    notte.”


    “Right, right, you’re notte. I came early. But let’s not talk about that. Shepherd, are you sure about


    auctioning off a visit to the divine doctor?”


    “Yeah.” Bonnie nodded.


    Heath scrutinized Bonnie. “I heard that a divine doctor cured the boss’s mother of the SR Alliance.


    He’s even gone to the Knight family to treat the family head’s grandmother. I’m curious. Why would


    that divine doctor auction his treatment through you?”


    Bonnie smirked mysteriously. “Aren’t you always boasting about how smart you are? Do you want


    to guess?”


    Heath rubbed his chin. “You must’ve met that divine doctor at the Knight family, but I’m still puzzled.


    Even if you know that divine doctor, you wouldn’t be familiar to this extent, right? Shepard, you’re


    not pulling my leg, are you? It’s an auction my family organized. Don’t trick me. What if the divine


    doctor doesn’t show up?”

    “Hehehe, I’m just double–checking and making sure.” Heath chuckled awkwardly.
