Chapter 1279
The door swung open. Then, Yasmine poked her head inside and said, "Hi, boss."
Ivor raised his head and looked at her. "Yes?"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
She hesitated before she walked inside. "I-I have something to ask you."
Yasmine didn't usually stammer the way she was doing now. So, Ivor had a subtle idea about why she was here.
"Are you here to ask me about news from Boyd?"
Yasmine had not expected him to see through her intentions so quickly. She froze in place. "How did you know what's on my mind?"
Ivor tapped his head and said, "I used my brain."
She merely remained quiet, unsure if he was trying to make fun of her.
Ivor realized that Yasmine wasn't saying anything. So, he continued, "Boyd didn't say anything, but Collin did tell me that they'll begin the operation tomorrow night."
"Is it the same operation my savior mentioned before?" Yasmine's tone was laced with a hint of excitement. "If Collin called you to tell you about it, does that mean our organization is a part of theirs?"
The more she talked about it, the more excited she became. "If that's the case, I'll be able to see Mr. Boyd again!"
"When has anyone said anything about us joining in on their operation?" What Ivor said snapped Yasmine out of her joy.
"Are you going to tell me we can't join them? Then, why did Collin call you and tell you about it?"
"He only wanted to inform me. It doesn't mean we're part of their operation" vor rubbed his eyebrows, "Let me just say this. The Nidhoggs didn't say we could join on their operation. That means you can't act without permission. Just go back to your work."
"But... It has been a long time since I've seen Mr. Boyd. I really want to see him again..." Yasmine's voice was filled with gloominess. "The way you're thinking about Boyd is very inappropriate, Yasmine. You mustn't forget that he's married. You're overstepping."
"O-Of course, I know he's married. I keep that in mind all the time, but I just can't control myself from being concerned about his well-being."
Yasmine's tone was laced with helplessness. "He saved my life. I just want to express some concern and make sure he's safe. Can't I do that?"
"That's not what I'm talking about." Ivor frowned. "It's just that the way you did it is inappropriate. It's slightly more understandable if you aren't aware that he's married. Now that you know about it, you have to keep your distance from him.
"You have no sense of boundary. It's easy for people to misunderstand you. You haven't even been in a relationship before. Are you going to risk letting people talk behind your back over a married man?"
