Chapter 114
“Since you're Avril’s friend, you're more than welcto my home. You can join us if you're okay with it. If you
ever feel like leaving one day, I'll help you out.”
Although the Shepards were a bunch of heartless monsters, Bonnie never discounted the fact that there were
genuinely kind-hearted people in the world. She was about to politely turn down their offer when a black
Maybach approached them.
“Hmm?” Daken stared at the car and was surprised. Puzzled, he said, “I think that’s a limited edition Maybach.”
Avril's eyes widened as she asked, “Are you sure, Dad? Is it the Maybach you always talk about?”
She might not have known much about cars, but her dad did. Technically speaking, every man was
knowledgeable about cars the sway women were with handbags. In that case, Avril knew a thing or two
about cars because her dad constantly talked about them.

“I think it is,” Daken said as the black Maybach pulled over before Bonnie.
The window lowered halfway through, and he heard a deep voice coming from inside, “Get in.”
“Okay.” Bonnie nodded and looked at Avril and Daken. “I appreciate the gesture, but | have a place to
stay.”
Avril could not help but look at the man in the car. However, it was dark inside, and she could barely
make out his profile by the glow of the street light. Still, she realized the man was young and
handsome.
“Um, are you guys close, Bonnie?” Avril could barely bring herself to ask such a question.
Bonnie grinned and said, “You must also think | have a sugar daddy and that I'm well on my way to being a
homewrecker.”
“N-No. That's not what | meant at all. I'm just worried about a bad guy tricking you into getting into
his car.”
“Don’t worry about it. I'm not having an affair with this guy or anything.”
Avril gazed at Bonnie and decided she was not lying. Moreover, the former had a hunch Bonnie was not someone
who would have an affair with a married man. It simply was not who Bonnie was.
On the other hand, Trina would undoubtedly do something like that if an opportunity presented itself.
“Are you sure you're not coming to stay with us?”
“Thanks for the offer, but | do have a place to stay.”

Avril realized Bonnie was insistent on staying elsewhere and did not argue. Still, the former could not help but
ask as she watched the black Maybach drive off into the distance, “Who do you think was in the car, Dad?”

“t's hard to say for sure.” Daken shook his head and flicked his cigarette aside. “Don’t overthink it. If she
considers you her friend, she’ll tell you about it in the future,”
“I guess you're right. It’s like what you said. Everyone has secrets. We should take a step back and give them
space. That's what friends do.” Avril did just that and let the matter rest.
Ivor rook Bonnie to a seaside villa. She regarded the place in puzzlement and asked, “Why’d you bringhere”
Ivor smiled and clapped. Immediately after, colorful lights cto life from the villa to the surrounding trees.
Then, they continued to light up all over the coastline.
Thud thud thud!
A moment later, a pleasant melody echoed as Floyd wheeled a pink cake in the shape of a castle toward Bonnie.
