I Love You, Miss Genius

At first, Yasmine could fend the bodyguards off. However, it started draining her when they kept swarming to her, outnumbering her. "Phew!"

She had just taken a breath when another bodyguard charged at her. Fists after fists swung her way and hit her, all of them as big as a boulder.

Her stamina was about to be completely drained. She realized she could no longer fight them as hard as she did, so she had to move swiftly and dodge their attacks.

Just as she ducked backward, her strained feet couldn't support her weight and momentum. She wobbled.

Billy saw it and his lips curled into a cold, malicious grin. Then, he pulled out a pistol and aimed it at her.

Bonnie, who was hiding behind the curtain, saw what he was going to do and decided she couldn't keep hiding forever.

'It doesn't matter if Yasmine is friend or foe, she's an Arvandorian, same as me. I'll do my good deed of the day and lend her a hand.'

She was still in the middle of her thoughts when she saw Billy was about to pull the trigger. She barked immediately, "Watch out!"

Nobody expected someone else to be here. Bonnie's disguised presence startled everyone.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Yasmine was stunned, too. It only lasted a moment, though. She snapped out of her trance and saw the pistol Billy was aiming at her.

At the next moment, she ducked out of the way. To her surprise, he had predicted where she'd dodge to and fired the pistol.

"Bang!"

The bullet soared through the air and buried itself firmly into one of Yasmine's thighs.

"Argh!" She let out a blood-curdling scream.

Yasmine started sweating profusely. She curled up and backed off into the corner slowly as she clutched her thigh, blood oozing out of the bullet wound.

'I can't believe that Billy can predict where she was going to dodge. It was impossible to guard myself against him!'

Even Bonnie was surprised that Yasmine still got hurt, even after she reminded the latter about the imminent attack.

Then, she pulled out a smoke

grenade from her pouch and tossed

it to the crowd. In a matter of a

second, smoke filled the entire room, disorienting everyone and obstructing their vision temporarily.

Billy raised his voice and barked, "Yasmine has an ally. Keep your senses sharp and pinpoint their location. Don't let them escape!"

"Roger!" His bodyguards responded to him in unison.

Be that as it may, Bonnie had augmented her smoke grenade. Not only did it disorient its victims, but it also blinded them for a short time.

That was why his bodyguards

weren't able to see anything, let

alone capture her and Yasmine.. Even Yasmine's vision was shrouded in darkness, while the pain on her thigh continued to intensify.

'Billy might've claimed that I have an ally, but I know for a fact that I came alone. So, I can't be sure if the person who let loose a smoke grenade is a friend or foe.

'I mean, what I am going to do if the person turns out to have some ill intentions for me?

'I'm a tough lady and I don't scare

easily, but I have to say that fear is creeping into me right now. Oh dear. Howd wish someone could lend me a hand in this kind of situation.' en.swhovels.net

She was still in the middle of her thoughts when someone swooped her up. Then, she heard a charming voice.

"Wrap your arms around my neck, I'm getting you out of here."

That stunned Yasmine. Raising her head, she looked at the person and saw his sexy Adam's apple as well as a defined jawline.

It looked like her savior was a handsome guy.

She couldn't explain it, but she felt very safe in his presence.
