Bonnie chuckled, and Ivor said, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you content with twins? Do you want to
make eight -no, ten babies with me? I’d love that, but I don’t want you to push yourself.”
He looked at her belly worriedly.
Bonnie giggled and said, “You have a wild imagination. Okay, that’s enough of that. I need to sleep,
and you need to leave.”
She pushed him out of her room. She then patted her head and thought, ‘Why did I let him trick me
into having a conversation about having babies? Jeez, we even discussed how many babies we’ll
have.”
When Saturday arrived, Bonnie went to the Jade Horizon Hotel as promised. When she opened the
private room door, her eyes sparkled as she looked at the stunning man. He was almost as dashing
as
Ivor, but his demeanor differed.
Bonnie stared at the man and felt a strange feeling well inside her. She felt like she had seen this
person before. More urately, she seemed to recognize his eyes and lips the most.
She and the man observed each other for a while. Thetter’s eyes widened with astonishment as
he thought, ‘The chef told me she’s beautiful, but I underestimated just how gorgeous she is.”
“Hello, there. I’m Thaddeus Sherman. It’s nice to meet you.”
“Likewise, Thaddeus. I’m Bonnie.”
“Bonnie?” Thaddeus repeated.
“Is there something wrong with my name?”
“Not at all. It rolls off the tongue..
Nuh–uh. I think it’s nice. It rolls off the tongue quite smoothly. Its etymology means ‘pretty‘ and
‘beautiful. It’s just that it sounds familiar, but I can’t remember where I heard it.” He could not
remember, no matter
how hard he tried.

Bonnie did not overthink it and sat down, saying, “Perhaps it’s amon name.”
She did not tell him her name was trending on Twitter because of the incident regarding the
Shepards and Orpheus. It was only expected that Thaddeus had heard about her.
He said, “It’s notmon at all. I think it’s a pretty unique name. Perhaps I made an honest
mistake. I heard you like wine, so I brought you an imported bottle of 1982 Chateau Lafite. Try some
and tell me if you like it.”
As he poured Bonnie a ss, she thought, ‘I’ve drunk that wine. I remember how smooth it was to
drink.”
She said, “You wouldn’t have brought me this wine for no good reason, right? So, tell me what your
intentions are.”

I like that you get to the point, Bonnie. You’re just like me in that aspect. I don’t like beating around
the bush, but I held back because I didn’t want to make you ufortable.” Then, Thaddeus
noticed her getting slightly impatient. After all, he was a perceptive man.
He hurriedly added, “I’ve always wanted to learn about culinary arts. The chef here told me about
your unrivaled skills, so I would love to be your apprentice.”
Bonnie sipped her wine and put her ss down, saying, “Didn’t the chef tell you I don’t have time to
teach anyone? He used to ask me the same thing, too, but I always rejected him.”
Thaddeus knew it would turn out this way and had prepared for it. He stood up and looked at her
thoughtfully. He said, “I mean it, Bonnie. I’ve had an immense Interest in culinary arts since
childhood. However, I’ve never been honored to meet someone with actual skills.
“Besides that, my parents gave me onest warning. If I can’t learn culinary arts and make
something of myself, I’ll have to return home and take over the family business. I’m not cut out for a
corporate life and the furthest thing from apany CEO.”
That was also why Thaddeus needed to find an extraordinarily talented wife. That way, he could let
his wife take over the family business.
Bonnie noticed his sincerity and felt his passion for cooking. Moreover, he looked so familiar that
she could not help but feel closer to him. Hence, she faltered slightly.
Thaddeus noticed it and seized the opportunity to try again, I swear I’ll learn with everything I have.
If you turn me down, I’ll wait at your doorstep daily
I’ll be there, no matter the weather.”
Bonnie’s lips twitched when she heard that.
