Chapter 264
Trina’s eyes widened in terror. “Wh–what are you doing?!”
Bonnie glared at her menacingly and said, “I told you last time. If you’re going to accuse
me of having a sugar daddy, you better have evidence to back it up. Otherwise, you’ll regret it.”
Trina felt an impending danger. She gulped in fear before screaming and fleeing. However, Bonnie grabbed her collar and yanked her back, causing her to fly and slam into a cupboard.
“Trina!” Vera darted after her daughter worriedly. “Are you okay, sweetie?”
Trina cried, “I–I’m okay, Mom. Don’t blame Bonnie for this. I was wrong to expose wrongdoings in front of everyone.”

Vera was outraged. She turned and screamed at Bonnie, “Did you hear that?! You hurt Trina, yet she still defends you! So what if you’re the miracle doctor? Your talents don’t matter much if you’re wicked and nasty. Even if the family wants you back, I’ll never reconcile with you.”
“Exactly!” Gresham glared at Bonnie. “She spoke my mind. I’ll never reconcile with you till the end of time!”
Initially, Harold and Yolanda wanted to use Bonnie’s skills for the family’s benefit. However, what happened just now suggested it was no longer possible.
Gresham and Vera’s claims made the older couple reconsider retaining someone as nasty as Bonnie. After all, she could be of more trouble than her worth.
Harold said coldly, “I pitied you and allowed you to rejoin the family because the Shepard blood courses through your veins. Now, you’ve created a disaster. I’ll kick you out, you troublemaker. Good riddance.”
Bonnie glared at him and responded, “I wanted to leave, but you got in my way. Why do you insist on complicating things for yourself?”
‘How annoying!‘
The Shepards glared daggers at her as she left. When Bonnie exited the house, she saw Jim waiting for her. She asked, “Why are you here?”
“Why else? Mr. Ivor was worried about you.
“Are you mocking me?”
“I wouldn’t dare.” Jim smiled and glanced at the Shepards‘ house grimly. “I heard fighting going on inside.”
Bonnie then told him everything that had just happened inside. “That’s about it. Those idiots considered their bodyguards elites. As far as I’m concerned, they weren’t even a fun challenge.”

Bonnie stared into Jim’s eyes and asked, “Am I right to say you wanted to barge in there earlier?”
Jim chuckled, saying, “Your intelligence is extraordinary, Bonita. Nothing escapes you. Yes, I wanted to help but stopped because this is the Shepards‘ house.“.
Bonnie was grateful that he put himself in her shoes and considered what she needed instead of what he needed to do. Although he was a man’s man, he was exceptionally thoughtful and cautious regarding Bonnie.
She said, “You don’t have to respect those fools anymore. You can barge in and teach them a lesson for all I care. I have nothing to do with them, after all.”
Jim nodded. “Roger that.”
Floyd entered the Knight Group’s CEO’s office with a stack of documents and approached Ivor. However, he realized his boss was still looking at the same document from hours ago. “You’ve been staring at that for over an hour, Mr. Ivor. Is something wrong?” “I was distracted with my thoughts.” Ivor frowned.
