Meanwhile, Toby was in his place sipping tea when his phone rang. He was stunned when he saw Ivor's non the screen. Then, he recalled what Bonnie told him and everyone else at the research institute 'Ms. Bonnie said she'd be away from Pyralis for a long time. She also said her husband might call to ask about her whereabouts. We're supposed to say she's busy conducting research. No matter what Mr. Ivor asks, we must tell him that to stop him from discovering the truth.' With that in mind, Toby composed himself and answered the call, "Hello, is that you, Mr. Ivor?" Ivor's charming voice sounded, "Yeah, it's me." After ssilence, Toby asked, "How can I help you?" "Where's Bonnie? She isn't answering my calls. I've called her more than ten times now," Ivor sounded displeased. He thought it was strange because Toby was Bonnie's assistant, yet he could answer his call. but Bonnie could not.

Ivor instinctively took Bonnie's side as he listened. Then, he spoke on her behalf, "That's just how she is. She's pretty forgiving about most things but is brutally strict about research. That said, I bet she did it for your benefit.
"You're working on a thesis but want to be involved in a significant project. You can botch your thesis and Bonnie's research if it's more than you can handle." X
