“Ivor Knight!” Bonnie punched him.
“Owie…”Neville, who was watchingthemfrom upstairs,coveredhiseyes. What happenedwastoo graphic for someonehisage.
Afterward,Ivorwent to work with a blackeye,shockingeveryone. Although it was apparent someone had punched him,hestill grinned.
Even Floyd could not take it,saying, “Ahem,Iknow you’re happy Ms. Bonniegaveyou a black eye, but shouldn’t wefocuson what’s important now, Mr. Ivor?”
“What do you mean?” Ivor asked in puzzlement.
Floyd’s lips twitched.“Did youforgetthatyouand your grandmother have an appointment with the miracle doctor?”

Floyd checked the time and asked, “We have another hour until then. Should I call the miracle doctor now?”
“Mhm.”
Shortly after, Bonnie received a text and was about toreplywhen she receivedacall from Vera. Frowning, she fell into deep thought.
‘Mom and Dad have never called meoncesincedisowning me. It’s like their official tweet said:I’m no longer a member of the Shepard family.Theydon’t care if I’mdeador alive. So, why’s Mom calling me? Does she want to ask about the time I humiliated Brittany?‘

Bonnie answered the call and said indifferently,“What is it?”
“Come and get your things now.”
“I’m busy. Maybe tomorrow.”
“I need to empty your room so that they can renovate itintoa makeshift lab for Trina. The contractor will be here soon.Ifyou’re not coming to take your things,I’lltellthe servantstotoss them into the garbage.”

“As you know, your room is the only available one now. So, if you refuse to collect your things, we’ll have to take care of it ourselves,” Vera said casually,
Bonnie remained calm and did not let it affect her. “Pine, I’m coming.”
After hanging up the phone, she texted Floyd. “I’m sorry. There’s an emergency. I’ll see you tonight.”
Half an hour later, Bonnie stood before the place she used to call home. She looked calm and distant. Although, Bonne had planned to return and collect her things once Lenfeild Resort was complete. She never expected her former family to be so impatient.
Perhaps she should have expected it. After all, she was no longer a member of the family. Having her stuff in their house was pretty troublesome for them and herself.
