I Love You, Miss Genius

"One of my business partners gave me this fine bottle of wine. We wouldn't have a chance to drink it under normal circumstances, so I thought tonight was a perfect opportunity." "Are you sure about that?" Bonnie was skeptical.

"Of course I am. Why would I be plotting anything?" Ivor said matter-of-factly.

She shook her head. "Nuh-uh."
