I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 607

Bonnie pursed her lips, asking, “Are you disappointed to see me?”

Orson sighed, looking dejected. “That’s not it. I’m just disappointed that Master Kieran isn’t here. I’ve been looking forward to this day since you promised me I could meet her. I would even say I could die without regrets if I did.

“I even prepared myself for today. I was so nervous and excited that I couldn’t sleep last night. Still, I didn’t expect her to be a no-show.” He grinned bitterly.

Bonnie looked at him from head to toe. She noticed his suit and gel in his hair, knowing it was a big deal for him.

Orson looked nothing like an older man. Instead, he looked like a little boy who dropped his candy in the mud just as he was about to taste it. It was because he could not meet one of Bonnie’s many identities.

Bonnie chuckled helplessly and entered the private room. Orson caught up to Bonnie and asked, “Did Master Kieran tell you why she couldn’t make it? Will I ever meet her?”

Instead of responding, she looked at the table and saw a sketchbook and art supplies Orson had prepared. She approached them and picked up a brush.

“Orson, let’s forget about Master Kieran for now. How about I paint something for you? Are you okay with that?”

Orson realized she did not respond to his questions and felt he understood what Kieran thought of him. So, he sighed and set aside his disappointment. He said, “Well, one has to know when to quit. After all, it isn’t my destiny to meet Master Kieran.”
