"You've been away from Pyralis too long, boss. I understand why you'd miss your wife," Yasmine analyzed the situation for Ivor, "However, Mr. Boyd is in a dangerous situation. What will we do while you're away during an emergency?"
Ivor could only frown.
Noticing his silence, Yasmine continued, "You've been here for so long because you want to borrow the chip from the Nidhoggs once they get it back. If you leave during this crucial moment, they won't be willing to lend it to us.
"I think you should bear with it for now and stay here. Once we get the chip, you'll have plenty of time to be with your wife,"
'I genuinely miss Bonnie, but Yasmine has a point. I just wanted to use this chance to return to Pyralis to visit my wife.'
Ivor sighed, conflicted, as he said, "I guess I'll have to wait and see how things turn out for Mr. Boyd. If the time is right, I'll leave for Pyralis. I guess I can live with that."
Yasmine nodded and thought of something before glancing at Ivor. "I must clarify that I didn't say all that because of my savior. On the contrary, I have our organization's best interests at heart.
"Please don't think I stopped you from visiting your wife because I'm worried about Mr. Boyd. I'm a straightforward thinker, so please don't misunderstand me."
Although Yasmine did not attend Ivor's wedding nor meet his wife, she knew how important Bonnie was to him. Hence, Yasmine explained her thoughts to Ivor.
'I've never met Mr. Ivor's wife, but I'd like to leave a good impression on her.'
"Okay," Ivor responded dryly. He sounded so calm that no one could know his feelings.
Yasmine knew he did not want to talk about it anymore, as he felt disheartened about being unable to visit his wife. So, she dared not say anything else and looked out the window silently.
Bonnie used a unique feature on her phone to try hacking into the security systems to alter the camera settings. Simultaneously, Billy was still in the security room watching the motionless "Bonnie" fiddling with her phone.
As he stared at the screen, he subtly felt something was amiss. "Why is Barrett just lying there? Is the camera frozen?"
"Let me check," Francesco said as he typed away at the keyboard. Soon after, he scratched his head and added, "Is the whole system hammed? I can't access the mainframe."
"What?!" Billy's heart sank when he recalled "Bonnie's" mastery of computers. "Do you think Barrett found out about our hidden cameras? Could he have hacked our system?!"Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
He shot up from his seat and ordered, "Take two men to Barrett's room! Now!"
