A surge of warmth spread through Bonnie’s heart as she stared at Harvey’s wide-eyed, child like gaze.
A split second later, she reached out and hugged Harvey close to her.
“Thank you, Harvey.” He was just six years old, and Bonnie knew how much he longed to have a
family.
After all…she had grown up as an orphan, and when she was young, there was nothing she wanted
more than to be reunited with her birth parents.
Even with their predicament, Harvey was reassuring her calmly that even if she did not want to marry
Jim, he would understand and respect her decision.
How could she not be touched by having such an understanding son? The two of them embraced for a
long time until finally, Bonnie’s phone rang. It was a call from Luna.
“Bonnie, can you help me? Theo…” Bonnie furrowed her brows when she heard Luna hesitating.
“What’s wrong?” Luna sighed, then explained everything that had happened to her, including Theo’s
stubborn insistence to marry Roanne, who had died.
“Theo and I were close, and at one point, he had saved Neil’s life, so I…”
Bonnie frowned upon hearing this. She could understand how tough of a situation Luna was in. On one
hand, Bonnie knew that Luna was right, and someone had to put their foot down and snap Theo out of
this.
On the other hand, Theo had helped Luna countless times in the past, and if Luna were to scold him for
this, he would think that she was ungrateful and did not appreciate him for the sacrifices he had made.
Even though Luna would not be doing anything to harm Theo, Bonnie knew that Luna could never
bring herself to scold or reprimand Theo. Therefore, she needed Bonnie’s help more than ever.
Bonnie immediately replied without a second thought, “Don’t worry. I’ll be there soon. Where is he
now?”
Luna sighed.
“He’s…at the Civil Rights Bureau, trying to get his and Roanne’s marriage registered. Rachel is with
him now.”
Bonnie gasped, then quickly replied, “I’ll be there as soon as possible!”
Then, she hung up and stood up from the ground.
“Mommy!” Harvey chased after her just as she was about to head out the door, having put on her
coat.
“I’ll go with you!”
Bonnie paused for a moment, then nodded.
“Alright.” She knew that Harvey was trying to cherish every last moment he had with her, so she
reached out to take his
“Let’s go.” Before they left, Bonnie informed the guards and servants of where they were headed and
told them to keep a careful eye on June and Shelly.
One of them was still sick, and the other was just an infant, so she could not help feeling a little worried
about leaving them at home.
After the babysitter promised up and down that she would take good care of them, Bonnie and Harvey
finally set out toward the Civil Rights Bureau.
There was a black car parked near Tea Cottage, and when Bonnie’s car left the house, the driver inside
the vehicle saw this and dialed a number.
“Mr. Simms, Bonnie and the child have already left Tea Cottage. Should we do it now?” Quentin curled
his lips into a smile when he heard this.
He glanced at Charlotte, who was lying on the bed in the underground prison, and asked, “Shall we go
through with it?” Charlotte rolled her eyes in indignation.
“Of course!”
