    Chapter 252


    Before Bonnie could speak, Ivor said, “Don’t say it. I’m not letting go of your hands.”


    It was as if those words filled Bonnie’s heart with warmth. She felt a sense of security as she looked


    at his gritty expression. Since she had always been independent and tough, r she had never


    needed anyone to make her feel this safe.


    It felt good to have someone to depend on.


    Vera noticed Bonnie ignoring her. The former roared, “I won’t ask you again, Bonnie! Are you going


    to sell me the ginseng or not?! If you don’t, I’ll tell your countryfolk parents that you left a poor old


    lady to die!”


    Although Bonnie rarely got angry, she was furious this time. “My parents raised, educated, and


    cared for me whenever I got sick. They’ve never failed to give me birthday presents every year.


    You’re no one to me.


    “How dare you threaten to disturb their peace! If you so much as text my parents, I’ll destroy your


    entire family.”


    “Hmplr, as if! Who do you think you are? Funny how you think you can destroy us.”


    Suddenly, Xavier approached and said, “Just say the word, Bonnie. I’ll wipe the Shepards from


    Pyralis.”


    Vera was shocked while Gresham stood up. He was terrified, hastily saying, “Please look past this,


    Xavier. My wife is just amoner. She doesn’t consider things before speaking.”


    Xavier retorted, “What are you talking about? She’s trying to buy my billion–dor ginseng for a


    measly hundred grand. If anything, she’s trying to take advantage of me. How dare you say


    consider things before speaking?”


    she does


    “I’m sorry, Xavier. My wife has overstepped. She’ll apologize to you.” Gresham hurried over and


    urged his wife to apologize.


    Vera dared not disobey. She said, “I’m sorry, Xavier. I didn’t mean to step out of line. I’m just worried


    about my mother. That’s why I offered to buy the ginseng.”


    Xavier ignored the couple and asked Bonnie, “How do you want me to deal with them?”


    Gresham and Vera’s hearts sank. At that moment, the Shepards were at Bonnie’s mercy.


    Meanwhile, the couple wondered why Xavier was respectful and protective of Bonnie.

    They even spected he was her sugar daddy.

    “Wait, Bonnie sat close to Ivor and even held hands. Xavier must’ve seen it, but he did nothing


    about it. He can’t be Bonnie’s sugar daddy. So, why would Xavier side with her if there’s nothing


    between them?‘


    Bonnie red at her former parents, saying, “I never want to hear you two insulting my parents


    again. I’ll show you how merciless I can be if I ever find out you two disrespect or humiliate them.”


    Vera and Gresham disdained Bonnie even more now. However, they could do nothing about it. Now


    that the incident had concluded, the auction ended with a bang for the time being.
