SWNOVELS Chapter 1460
Upon seeing the group of Shepard family members in front of her, Ivor's long brows tightened abruptly.
Instinctively stepping forward, he shielded Bonnie behind him.
Bonnie's heart warmed when she saw Ivor blocking her path. She gently patted his arm to reassure him. "You go ahead first. I'll have a private chat with them."
Ivor hesitated momentarily, looking into Bonnie's clear eyes, and finally nodded.
"Okay, I'll be in the corridor over there. Call me if you need anything. I'll come over immediately."
"Mm." Bonnie waved him off.
"Go on, everything will be fine. Don't worry."
Gresham and Vera immediately rushed forward after Ivor left, wanting to express their apologies and regrets to Bonnie.
However, Bonnie raised her hand to stop them before they could speak.
"I know why you've come to see me now. I don't want to hear any of those excuses. I have a few words for you here. A broken mirror can't be mended.
"Even if you try to glue it back together, it can never be the same as before. Since you chose to break the mirror in the first place, there's no need to try to mend it again." With that said, she didn't even look at Harold and the others and walked straight towards Ivor.
"Let's go."
Ivor nodded and held Bonnie's hand as they left the spot.
Gresham watched Bonnie's retreating figure, about to call her back, but was stopped by Harold's voice.
"Let's go back."
Vera looked at Harold in confusion.
"Dad, weren't we here to ask for Bonnie's forgiveness? Why are we leaving before even saying a few words?"
Carlee was also puzzled, "Yeah, Dad, why are we leaving like this? Didn't we come here for nothing?"
Facing their confusion, Harold sighed heavily.
"Haven't you heard what Bonnie just said? A broken mirror can't be mended, just like our relationship with her. It can't be repaired anymore."
He then turned and walked forward.
"Let's go back."
In the twilight's glow, his usually straight back seemed to slump instantly; even his full head of white hair was visible as if he had aged several years in an instant.
Gresham, Vera, and Carlee looked at each other and sighed simultaneously. No one spoke again and followed Harold away.
As soon as Bonnie and Ivor entered the Knight's residence, Sigmund greeted them.
"Bonnie, you've worked hard today.

Bonnie didn't bother with formalities.
"Thank you, Grandpa."
At this moment, Sydney's voice sounded at the door.
"We're here too."
Bonnie followed the sound and saw Sydney carrying many things in her hands. She immediately went up to help.
"Auntie Sydney, let me help you."
Sydney immediately blocked her

Bonnie didn't insist further, "Alright then."
Behind her, Flynn stuck his head out and gave Bonnie a thumbs up.
"You fought a great battle today. Congratulations, congratulations."
"Don't praise me. It was just a normal interview. It's not that amazing." Bonnie smiled modestly.
Flynn looked admiringly, his eyes shining with stars, looking like a little fan.
"Don't be modest. You're amazing. You're the super idol of Arvandor!"
Bonnie felt a bit embarrassed by his praise. Just as she was about to speak, Ivor draped his arm around her shoulders.
"Let's go to the dining table. It's tiring to stand and talk."
They settled down at the dining table.
Sigmund and Gunnar praised Bonnie one after another.
