I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard )
Chapter 1306

Bonnie waved. "You're pretty smart yourself."

Falcon grinned and chuckled, saying, "I wouldn't have gotten us into this miserable situation if I were."

Bonnie was about to say something when Billy's voice echoed from above, "Did you guys search this area yet? Did you see anyone?"

"There's no one here, Mr. Billy."

"What about over there? Search every inch of this place! We're only looking for two guys. How hard can it be?!"

Bonnie and Falcon swapped glances. Then, the latter smiled for the first time since they started running for their lives. He said, "Billy brought backup to save us! I don't even have to shoot the flare!" Bonnie acted moved, saying, "Yeah, he must've come to rescue us immediately after gathering more men. It looks like he's pretty loyal, too. I thought he'd leave us here to die."

Falcon spoke bluntly and honestly, "That's one thing you won't have to worry about. I have something Billy wants, so he won't abandon us."

Since Billy was the leader of his organization, he was naturally selfish. If Falcon had not had something beneficial to Billy, the latter would not have risked returning to save Falcon and Bonnie.

'Barrett keeps mentioning how loyal Billy is, but that's because Barrett's too inexperienced and naive."

"What do you have that's important to Mr. Billy?" Bonnie feigned curiosity. "Is it the chip you guys talked about?”

If she had asked this question too soon, Falcon would have avoided answering it. However, he began to think of "Bonnie" as a friend after what they had gone through together. That was why he no longer cared about keeping secrets.

Instead, he answered honestly, "Yeah, that's it. I bet Billy will let you work on the chip soon enough. I'll tell you the details then."

Bonnie squinted with a hint of playfulness. She knew Billy had to ask for Falcon's opinion regarding the chip. Now that the latter had said she could work on the chip soon, it would surely happen.

"All right, I look forward to it," Bonnie said as she propped herself up on the wall of the cave, "Quick, call out to Mr. Billy to get us. Otherwise, our injuries will only worsen over time."

Then, she had an idea and deliberately made fun of the situation, saying, "If that happens, you'll lose a leg, and I'll lose a hand. Then, we'll be buddies for life."

Falcon was stunned. He chuckled and said, "How can you joke at a time like this?"

"It's good to lighten the mood." Bonnie smiled. "You're smiling, aren't you? That means my joke was pretty entertaining."

"I guess you're right," Falcon said as he felt his cheek.

'Barrett's right. I feel more relaxed after hearing that joke. I'm not as stiff and grim as I was a minute ago.'

With that in mind, Falcon faced the entrance and took a deep breath before shouting, "Billy! We're in the cave below you!" Billy was about to leave the area when he heard Falcon's voice.
