I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 1067

Ultimately, Sydney stopped hiding things from Bonnie. Instead, the former poured her heart out, "We're not just rivals. We're wealthy ones! We grew up in the same neighborhood but were so different that we kept butting heads.

"Everyone thought we'd grow out of it once we grew up, but the opposite proved true. The older we got, the more intense our rivalry became. I once ran for class representative in high school, but she just had to get in my way.

"Whenever I tried to buy ice cream, she would buy all the ones I liked. Also, I fell for a guy in college, and Angela was much prettier than me. She also had a way with people and took him away from me. There's more, but..."

Sydney could talk about her hateful history with Angela for days and would not even be half done.

'Angela is despicable and has outdone me in every aspect of my life. I can still remember everything she has done to me. It's been forever, but I still can't let those memories go!'

Bonnie did not think Angela would bully Sydney to this extent. Deep down, Bonnie sympathized with Sydney.

'Frankly, Sydney's rather forthright and wears her heart on her sleeves. She has no intentions to hide her feelings and can't be bothered to resort to dirty tricks. Ironically, that must be why Angely has been able to outdo her constantly.'

Sydney continued, "The point is, Angela has taken everything I loved. Worse, she has always outdone me. Now, she's married to the Hardings' eldest son. They're from one of the neighboring cities, so she's better than I am in that aspect.

"That's not all. Angela has two daughters and a son, all of whom are hugely successful. Her son is one of the best businessmen, and her daughters are immensely talented in various things."

The more Sydney spoke, the more bitter and jealous she became of Angela.

"Also, Angela wasn't just boasting about her husband earlier. I've met him before, and he dotes on her with all the money and love in the world. You can say he gives her everything she asks for. Gunnar treats me well, but it's a far cry from how Angela's husband dotes on her."

Sydney had much to say about Angela and her husband, making it hard for Bonnie to ignore Sydney's hatred for Angela. Then, Bonnie looked at Angela, who was practically oozing with a sense of superiority.

After some thought, Bonnie told Sydney, "I'll give you a hand with this."

Sydney grinned bitterly. "This isn't a time for jokes, Bonnie."

'Not even I can outbid Angela on the diamond necklace. I've already humiliated myself enough. I only want to leave as soon as possible. I have no intentions of facing further humiliation.'

"I wasn't joking." Bonnie raised her brow. "You've defended me twice, so I'll return the favor at least once. Just wait. I'll speak up for you."

"You shouldn't underestimate Angela. Keep yourself out of trouble." Sydney would much rather suffer the humiliation herself than drag Bonnie into it.

'Bonnie always ends up messing things up. I must stop her before she escalates things.'

Meanwhile, Bonnie was perfectly aware of Sydney's concerns. That said, the former had decided to help Sydney and would consider things cautiously before making any moves.

The host realized Sydney had stopped bidding, so the former stood in the center of the stage and said, "Is anyone else going to bid?"NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

She gazed across the hall and noticed no one wanted to speak up. She added, "Twenty-eight million going once! Going Twice! Sold-"

"Forty-one million dollars!"
