I Love You, Miss Genius

Once Toby was done talking to Ivor on the phone, he told Collin about it. After that, it was up to Collin and Bonnie.

Collin acknowledged it and gave Bonnie a call. "I've got the phone in your safe, chief. Toby has also told Ivor that you'll be calling him when you're less occupied. So, you're free to call him anytime you want. I'll stand by and wait for your orders."

"Alright. We're not in a hurry. We'll have to wait for a while."

Suddenly, someone knocked on her door. It alarmed her immediately. She stared at the door, vigilance flashing in her eyes.

Then, Bonnie hung up the phone and adjusted the hidden camera settings. She pretended to have just woken up when she opened the door.

The moment she saw Francesco, she yawned and pretended to be confused. She asked, "What's the matter? Is it dinner already?"

He flashed her a respectful and flattering smile. "It's not time for dinner yet, but Mr. Billy said he had an urge to play a game of chess. He is requesting your presence."

"Sure thing. I quite like playing chess," she responded with a fake smile. "The thing is, I've just woken up and I'm feeling kind of tired. I'm all sweaty after the nap, too. I'd like to take a shower before I go over. Mr. Billy will have to wait for me for a while."

"Take your time. I'll report it to him." Francesco nodded slightly and left quickly.

She watched as he left and frowned slightly.

'Why would Billy want me to play chess with him? What is he playing at?'

She rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on. Closing the door, she adjusted the camera setting with her phone before calling Collin again.

Collin answered her call promptly. The nervousness in tone was unmistakable.

"Who knocked on your door earlier, chief? Did Billy stir something up again?"

"Yeah, he did. She let out a subtle sigh. "He sent one of his henchmen to invite me for a game of chess out of nowhere. What's he trying to do, I wonder? I'm going over soon.

Refrain from calling me for the time being. I'll call you when I need to."

Collin was aware of how serious the situation was and agreed to it hastily.

"Loud and clear, chief!" Then,

something popped into his mind. "Wait a minute. What about Ivor? What are we supposed to do if you're occupied with Billy for a long time? He's still waiting for you to call him, after all."

Her headache got infinitely worse.

"Buy me some time. No matter what, I can only call him back after I've Billy. I'll see if I can find an opening to call him. I'll call him the moment a chance presents itself.

"Gotcha, chief," Collin responded solemnly, using a confident tone to give her some assurance.

"Great. That's it for now, then. I'm going to hang up now." She ended the call and adjusted the camera settings again. Picking up an outfit from her suitcase, she walked into the restroom.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

She checked the restroom thoroughly, trying to make sure that Billy wasn't the kind of psycho who'd installed a hidden camera in here.

Once she was sure there weren't any, she went on to take a shower.
