I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 24

Ivor played fast and hardly needed to think.

It was the same with Bonnie. The minute Ivor made his move, she made hers. All anyone could hear was a series of thuds as they moved the chess pieces.

Heath and Ged watched the game closely and almost cheered out loud several times. They were amazing! This was the ultimate showdown, all right. There was no telling who would win.

Half an hour later, Bonnie picked up a glass of water and took a sip. Ivor made his move and looked up at Bonnie. His gaze lingered as he was enchanted by her poise and grace.

Bonnie put down her glass and saw Ivor looking at her.

“Is there something on my face?”

Ivor caught himself and frowned.

“It’s your turn.”

“Oh.”

Bonnie made her move.

After some time, Ivor suddenly slowed down and studied the chessboard with a frown.

Ged started feeling anxious. Was Ivor going to lose?

Bonnie waited quietly.

After a minute, Ivor made his move.

Ged was relieved.

It was Bonnie’s turn to ponder her next move. Heath anxiously picked up a fan and started to waft it

at her.

Bonnie threw Heath a glance, silently telling him to relax. Embarrassed, he pumped his fist at her.

Ivor narrowed his eyes when he saw their interaction.

A thud sounded as Bonnie made her move and met Ivor’s gaze. “Your turn.”

The intense game continued, but neither Ivor nor Bonnie could gain the upper hand.

After a moment, Bonnie and Ivor stopped playing.

“I think we should call it a draw.”

“I agree.”

“We’ll play again next time.”

“Hav,”

Bonnie got up and stretched her limbs,

“It’s noon. Are you hungry? Let’s grab some lunch,” Heath sald.

Bonnie patted her stomach. “I’m starving. Come on.”

“Where should we go?”

They talked as they headed out.

Ivor started feeling Jealous as he saw how close they were.
