NovelEnglishChapter 1931
Bonnie had been standing outside the pantry for a while.
After Roanne brought her to Mickey to fix her broken finger, Bonnie rushed here as soon as she was
done.
She was still worried about Gwen, after all.
Bonnie and Luna both knew the lengths that Charlotte was willing to go to just to get what she wanted,
and Gwen, on the other hand, had been suffering from ill health for quite some time.
When Gwen first suggested the idea of disguising herself and Bonnie to trick Charlotte, both Bonnie
and Luna were against this idea.
However, because Gwen had insisted, and even Luke had agreed, the two of them finally
relented.
Despite this, Bonnie was still worried that Charlotte would, in a way, harm Gwen. Therefore, a s soon
as she was done, she sprinted toward the pantry without even thinking twice about her condition.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, she never thought that…
The first thing she would see when she arrived was the scene of Jim intentionally hurting himself to
save Charlotte.
She stared dazedly at Jim’s red, blistered palm and suddenly felt as though something was missing
from her heart.
Did Charlotte…mean that much to him?
Did Charlotte mean so much to him that he would put himself in danger to protect her?
What about her?
For the past year that she and Jim had been together, the thing she feared the most was Jim falling ill.
After all, Jim’s father, Charles, had a psychiatric condition, so Bonnie had been worried that this
disease was hereditary.
Therefore, over the past year, she had been buying Jim medications and supplements that would aid
his mental stability and even started brewing herbs and traditional medicine that would help him, which
was an impressive feat considering she had never cooked for anyone in her life.
There were a few occasions when she had accidentally fallen asleep sitting next to the stove out of
exhaustion.
Every time this happened, Harvey and June would stumble upon her and wake her up, teasing her and
telling her not to do something dangerous like this again.
However, she continued to do so in her spare time, all because she wanted nothing more than for Jim
to be safe and healthy.
Alas…
The man she had taken such meticulous care of had put his bare hand on a boiling kettle to protect
another woman.
Charlotte should have received the punishment she deserved….
Why did Jim have to suffer this pain when he had not done anything wrong at all?
Was this love?
If this was the case, then Jim had never loved Bonnie at all.
As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie met Luke’s shocked gaze, forced out a crooked smile that

The second she turned around, her tears fell silently down her face.
How stupid was she?
She should have known that coming to see Jim would not yield the outcome she wanted, yet she still
held onto sheer dumb hope, hoping that he would be able to remember her.
In the end, reality slapped her squarely across the face, and mercilessly so.
Bonnie strode away from the pantry determinedly.
From this day onward, Jim Landry was dead to her!
“Luke?” Seeing that Luke was standing motionless at the door, Gwen furrowed her brows and chased
after him.
When she reached Luke’s side, she caught sight of Bonnie walking away with her head held up high.
“She had probably been here for a while now…she must have seen everything.” Luke let out a sigh, put
his arm around Gwen’s shoulder, and said, “I guess this might be a good thing. It’d b e good for her to
learn to let go of someone unworthy of her time.”
Gwen immediately fell silent when she heard this.
She let out a bitter chuckle and lifted her head to glance at Luke’s chiseled face as though she wanted
to say something. However, she opened her mouth, but nothing came out. Luke glanced at her,
frowning, having noticed that she had something to say.
