    Ged regretted saying that because it made Rowena hate Bonnie even more.


    ‘I couldn’t win Ivor’s heart, yet Bonnie dared to y it off like she didn’t care about him. I hate that

    ying hard to get.‘


    Aimee said, “What do you mean, Ged? Bonnie’s just leading him on. I detest women who do that. I


    can’t stand by and do nothing when someone like her ys Ivor like a fiddle. I can’t ignore Rowena


    going through such torture. I’ll tell Grandpa about it and ask him to intervene.”


    A momentter, Edward stroked his beard and approached, “Did I hear someone mentioning me?”


    “Grandpa!” Aimee took his arm in hers and said, “I was talking about how Bonnie used deceitful


    means to seduce Ivor. Since you’re a respected professor at Pyralis University, you are the wisest


    person I know. I need you to figure out how to tear her away from him.”


    The older man frowned and asked, “Why do I find that name so familiar?”

    “She’s that good–for–nothing that got disowned by the Shepards. I heard she rebelled against her


    parents and constantly picked on her stepsister. That’s why the Shepards kicked Bonnie out.”


    “Oh?” It was evident Edward had not heard about that.


    “That’s right, Grandpa! You were too busy with your research to care about such things. Of course,


    wouldn’t know about it.”

    “Still, why is that name so familiar? It’s like I just heard her name several days ago,” Edward


    muttered.


    Aimee kept bugging him, “Grandpa, you have to help Rowena and Ivor! You’ve known them since


    they were children. I don’t think you can bear to see poor Rowena getting her heart broken and Ivor


    taking the wrong path in life because of that country bumpkin.”


    Halle followed Aimee’s lead and added, “She’s right! You must pull Ivor out of it, Mr. Edward! You’re


    a schr who’s more intelligent than the average Joe. I’m sure he’ll listen to you out of respect.”


    “All right, but I’ll need to meet this Bonnie person before doing anything drastic. I’d like to see if


    she’s as you guys say she is. If you’re right, I’ll talk some sense into Ivor.”


    “Grandpa!” Ged chimed in, “Don’t listen to their

    “Onsense. Bonnie’s not as bad as they say. She’s actually

    “I don’t care about what you think. In 3. Why do you keep defending her?” Aimee was furious.

    “Ugh. I can’t stand talking to you.” Aimee knew she could no longer reason with Ged and turned to


    her grandfather, saying, “I heard there’s a new president at Pyralis University. Can you say a few


    good words for me and see if they can bend the rules for me to get in, Grandpa?”


    “Um…” Edward was troubled. “That’ll be a little tricky. She put in a new rule that forbade us from


    bringing in students via any loopholes.”


    “Please, Grandpa. I’ve always wanted to attend Pyralis University. All of my friends got in, but I


    didn’t. It’s so humiliating!” she said shamelessly.


    That was when Ivor and Bonnie entered the party hall.

    “Hey, you guys are here atst!” Ged quickly went to wee them. Then, he whispered, “Bonnie,


    my younger sister has a little misunderstanding about you. She has a strong opinion of you but is
