I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 1164

"Thanks a bunch," Yasmine responded as she propped herself up with her crutch. She wabbled a little and added, "I'll take my leave then. Remember, I want to know when Mr. Boyd tells us to begin the operation as soon as possible."

"You got it." Collin noticed her limping and said, "You look like you're struggling just to stand. Do you want me to give you a ride home?"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She waved, saying, "Thanks, but that won't be necessary. My driver's waiting for me at the door."

He did not argue. "Stay safe."

"All right, I'll see you around." When Yasmine reached the hotel entrance, someone ran over to open the car door for her. She strained to get in before giving her crutch to the man. "Put this in the car first. Give it to me when I need to get out later."

"Right away, Ms. Yasmine," the man respectfully replied, taking the crutch to the car behind hers.

She had just settled in when a charming voice sounded, "What did Collin say? Did his boss pass Billy's test?"

"Come on, boss! You know how capable my savior is, right? He's multi-talented and can do anything. Of course, he passed the test," Yasmine spoke with pride as if she were the incredible one instead of Bonnie.

Ivor glanced sideways at her, saying, "Please mind how you carry yourself."

"What do you mean, boss?" Yasmine shook her head and said, "You've said that many times. I swear I'm starting to mutter than in my sleep. Would you please stop it?"

"I'll stop saying that when you take it seriously. Do you think I like wasting my breath repeating that?" He looked at her condescendingly. "That's enough of that. I told you to ask Collin several questions. Did you ask him, or were you so concerned about your savior that you forgot?"

"Of course I did!" Yasmine patted her chest confidently. "How could I forget your orders, boss?"

Then, she briefly explained her conversation with Collin. Ivor lowered his gaze as he listened, which hid his emotions. He said, "Since that's the case, it'll be a while before the operation begins. In the meantime, I'll return to Pyralis,"

Yasmine could not help but tease him, "Do you miss your wife, boss?"

"What's wrong with that?" Ivor leaned into his seat and thought of Bonnie. After their last video call, he worried about her finding out he lied about coming to Yale. He dared not make another video call for the next few days. Instead, he resorted to audio or text messages.

However, that was not enough to convey how much he missed her. He could not see or touch his wife. It was nothing short of torture, as far as he was concerned.

Ivor had been looking for a chance to return to Pyralis to see Bonnie before returning to Yale for the operation. Finally, he had a window to do that.

'Since Boyd can't get the chip yet, I can't provide any help even if I stayed here. It'll make no difference to Boyd if I return to Pyralis.'
