Chapter 1823
Who was this woman?
Bonnie, on the other hand, could not help snickering when she heard Jim’s words.
“Don’t you know who I am?”
She inched closer to him and reached out to wrap her arms around his toned waist as soon as she
reached him. “I’m your future fiancée, of course.”
From the moment Jim hinted at her that he was going to marry her, Bonnie had been unable to hide
her excitement and delight.
Even though he had blocked her phone number soon after that, she still thought it was because he was
upset that she did not return to Merchant City alongside Luna.
This was why she had chosen to come to Merchant City without even notifying Luna and sent him the
message using a strange number.
To her surprise, however, Jim could ask her who she was?
Who else was she?
She was Harvey and Shelly’s soon-to-be stepmother, his future wife!
Bonnie’s daring and intimate actions made Jim frown even more deeply.
This time, he did not show her mercy and instead removed her arms forcefully before he shoved her
aside.
Finally, he patted his wrinkled clothes with a frown and said, “I guess the person who sent me the
message was you, wasn’t it?”
He shot Bonnie a cold glance and added, sneering, “Don’t you know what shameful means? How can
you send a message to a man you’ve never met before and even hug him at first sight?”
Bonnie took a step back after being flung away by Jim.
If she had not grabbed hold of the sofa just in time, she probably would have fallen onto the ground.
She lifted her head angrily and glared at Jim in fury. “What on earth are you talking about?”
‘A man she had never met before’?
They had been together for almost a year, and she was about to become his fiancée, so how could he
have called her promiscuous for hugging a man she had never met before?
It had seemed like a funny joke at the start, but Bonnie could not help feeling resentful at the fact that Jim
was continuing with his tasteless act.
Jim chuckled when he saw the angry look in Bonnie’s eyes. “How can you not understand what I’m
talking about?”
He inched closer to Bonnie, sneering, and lifted her chin so that he could stare right into her eyes. “Are
you saying that you inviting me here and hugging me from behind was fake?
“Miss, even though I have no idea who you are nor your intentions of doing all this, I think you should
know I have a fiancée already.
“She’s kind, beautiful, gentle, and hardworking, and she’s a thousand times better than a woman like
you, who uses her beauty to lure innocent men out to seduce them.
“Let me give you a piece of advice: you’d better not try to trick me anymore in the future.”
With that, he let go of Bonnie and strode toward the door
He understood everything at that point.
Charlotte probably hired this woman to test his loyalty and devotion toward her. Otherwise, why would
this woman even hug him at first sight and even claim that she was his fiancée?
On top of that, Charlotte’s car was outside the house, so Jim was sure that his guess was correct.
As soon as he thought of this, Jim stopped in his tracks and said coldly, “If you were sent here by
Charlotte, I would still think you’re an ordinary woman, but please, don’t take on any more tasks like this
in the future.”
With that, he strode out of the house.
Bonnie remained motionless as she watched Jim”leave, feeling as though her heart had been
submerged into ice-cold water.
She could hear a ringing in her ears.
Did Jim just say that…he had a fiancée? Did he just say that his fiancée was a thousand times better
than her?
How could that be?
How could Jim…
In the past one year of their relationship, Bonnie had been with him every day of the first six months
when they were both in Merchant City together.
Even though she had returned to Banyan City after that to take care of the Craig family business, they
still talked on the phone every day and kept in touch through text messages.
Bonnie had even taken in the child Jim had borne with another woman.
There were no secrets between them, nor had there ever been a third person.
How, then, could he not recognize her all of a sudden and even claim to have a fiancée already? Bonnie
could not understand anything at all.
