Chapter 2160
Harvey’s video had finished playing.
Bonnie’s head was lowered, and she was silent. Jim, too, was fixated on his driving, pretending as though he did not
hear anything from Harvey’s video at all. The entire car was silent, as though everything that happened had just
been a dream.
Finally, they arrived at Tea Cottage.
Jim unlocked the door and said, “Harvey, get out of the car first. I have something to talk to your mother about.”
Harvey sighed and glanced first at Bonnie, then at Jim. “Alright, but you two talk this out properly. Don’t argue, and
don’t you dare get into a physical fight!” Then, he opened the door and got out of the door. As he did this, Bonnie,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttoo, placed a hand on the door handle on her side and tried to slip out of the car unnoticed. She had nothing to talk
to Jim about. In the past, when she had been desperately trying to salvage their relationship, he had chosen
Charlotte over her and rejected her over and over. Time and time again, he had even insulted her and led to her
being injured. All of the injuries on her body had something to do with him. Not only that, but during her meeting
with Rosalyn and Charles the day before, he had not ceased to humiliate her either.
All that, and he was claiming that he wanted to marry her just a day later? What did he think she was? Did he think
she was some sort of pet that he could chase away and beckon to him at his fancy? As soon as she thought of this,
Bonnie could not wait to get out of the car, but before she could do this, Jim caught sight of her trying to escape
and swiftly locked the doors. Bonnie almost caught her finger in the door in doing this, and as she drew her hand
back quickly, she shot Jim a murderous glare and snapped, “Are you trying to murder me again?” “Did I allow you
to get out of the car?” Jim curled his lips into a smirk and said curtly, “I’ve already said I wanted to talk to you in
private, and yet you’re trying to escape from underneath my nose. This is a punishment.”
Bonnie rolled her eyes at him. “I don’t know what you want to say to me but…I have nothing to say to you.
“If you want to talk to me about getting married, I’ve already made it clear that I refuse to do so, and as for
Harvey’s custody… I think it’s best that we discuss this when your father and
mother are present, and finally,”
She let out an exhale and glanced at him. “Shelly is neither your child nor mine, but I intend on adopting her for
now. If you finally recall who her mother is in the future, feel free to contact me, and we can discuss this further.”
Then, she closed her eyes and let out a deep sigh as though she were trying to release all the frustration that had
been on her mind all this while. A split second later, she opened her eyes and said, “I’ve said all I want to, Jim.”
Theo was right; she had been drowning in her love for the old Jim that she failed to open her eyes to the truth.
The fact was, the old Jim and the present Jim were two entirely different people. Whenever she was on her own,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBonnie would ask herself, did she still love the current Jim?
The answer was yes.
She loved Jim as a person, and it did not matter to her whether he possessed memories of her or not, and she did
not care what kind of person he became.
As long as Jim was still Jim, and his voice, appearance, and personality remained the same… she would love him till
the end of time.
Despite this, she was not someone who pestered her exes even after knowing they did not love her back.
If it were not for the fact that she and Jim had dated in the past, she would not have pestered him for so long.
What Theo said to her that day had reminded her that she had been lying to herself too. She had accused Theo of
being so fixated on the past that he could not open his eyes to the truth and the people around him. What made
her think she was different?
