Bonnie squatted before Shane and stared at him dryly. She looked calm, but what she said next made his heart sink. "What, am I supposed to give you another chance to set us up again? Why would I do something like that?"

Shane gulped, and he paled.

Bonnie did not want to waste another second on him. She turned sideways and ordered the bodyguards, "Take him away."

Ivor's bodyguards came forward and did as Bonnie said, ignoring Shane's pleas and cries. Soon after, the authorities cleared the scene and left Bonnie, Ivor, Jim, Floyd, and several cops.

Now that the crisis had ended, Bonnie's body finally reached its limits. Suddenly, her vision blurred, and she wobbled involuntarily.

Naturally, Ivor noticed it before anyone else. He raced over and caught Bonnie before she fell to the floor. Looking at her pale face worriedly, he asked, "What's wrong? Wake up, Bonnie. Come on, look at me. You can't fall asleep now."

Bonnie slowly opened her eyes and saw how anxious her fiance was. She palmed his cheek and forced a smile. "I-I'm okay. I'm just a little tired and want to nap. Can you hold me so I can rest?"

Ivor was about to say something when he noticed her exhausted expression. He kissed her forehead and said warmly, "All right, you can rest in my arms as long as you want."

"Okay," Bonnie responded softly and closed her eyes. She had long overworked her body and had no strength left. She would need a long nap to recuperate.

Ivor stared at her as she leaned on him. He could not help but feel heartbroken, thinking, 'It's all my fault. None of this would've happened if Bonnie didn't have to protect me.'

He sighed solemnly and carried Bonnie to Jim and the others. Then, Ivor realized something was wrong. Bonnie's skin was scorching, probably from a fever. He stared at her intensely, wanting to confirm whether it was a fever. However, he could not do it as he was carrying her.

Ivor looked at Jim, standing not too far from him, and said, "Jim, I think she has a fever. I need you to check her temperature."

"A fever?" Jim frowned. "Don't worry. I'm coming. Hmm, her shoulder injury must've triggered the fever. We need to get her to a hospital, or she might be in more danger."

"Okay, let's go now." Ivor held Bonnie tighter and rushed to a car. He muttered as he walked, "Hang in there, Bonnie. I won't let anything happen to you."

Although Ivor knew she was asleep and could not hear him, it did not stop him from saying that. After all, he said it for her sake and as a reminder to himself. 'I won't let anything happen to her, no matter what. I love her more than anything.'
