Has something happened to her?" The professors, who were already cautious, beceven more reluctant to speak. Saying the wrong thing could offend Bonnie, and no one wanted to be responsible for that. However, Ivor's imposing presence made silence equally inappropriate.
Finally, one professor suggested quietly, "Someone should go inside and call Ms. Bonita to ask her how to handle this situation." "But... if we leave under Mr. Ivor's watch, won't he becsuspicious?" Another professor doubted the feasibility of the plan.
The first professor gave him a stern look. “You fool! Just make an excuse to check on the experiment's progress. Who told you to tell the truth?" Realizing the suggestion, the second professor responded, "Oh, I get it. I'll call Ms. Bonita right away." Clearing his throat, the professor adjusted his demeanor and addressed Ivor, "Mr. Ivor, I need to check on the experiment's progress inside. You can talk to the others while I'm gone."

Feigning surprise at seeing Ivor, he continued, "Mr. Ivor, you're back so soon! Should I call Ms. Bonita and let her know, so she can prepare?" Ivor's sharp gaze scrutinized Toby to seek the truth. "Prepare for what?" Toby was taken aback by Ivor's intense gaze and felt his heart skip a beat. However, he maintained his composure and answered, "Well, every girl likes to look her best in front of the one she loves. Ms. Bonita is no exception.

"She felt disheveled from spending days in the lab, so she went hto freshen up. She would want to look best when seeing you. Since you're back earlier than expected, I should call her to give her a heads -up."
