I Love You, Miss Genius

Bonnie choked as she pried Yasmine off her. "Hey, take it easy! I'll suffocate if you keep hugging me like that!" Yasmine quickly let go and apologized, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to choke you. I was just too excited to see you."

Bonnie massaged her neck and cleared her throat. Meanwhile, Ivor watched their interaction with surprise. He asked, "Yasmine, what's happening?"

She cheerfully responded, "Boss, he's the savior I've been telling you to look out for. Billy would've caught me if it weren't for this guy."

Yasmine clung to "Bonnie's" hand as she spoke, fearing the latter would try to run.

Ivor finally understood the situation by combining Yasmine's words with the incidents at the underground market. He looked at Bonnie and asked, "You were at the underground market that day? What were you doing there, Mr. Boyd?"

Bonnie rolled her eyes and replied, "I was there spying on the enemy. Just to be clear, I didn't breach our contract. I wouldn't have gone if it weren't necessary for the mission."

Ivor sighed. "I already admitted to breaching the contract. We discussed that already, so let's move on and discuss something else, shall we?"

"Fine, what do you want to talk about?" Bonnie raised a brow.

He asked, "Did you find out I breached the contract because Yasmine told you she's a member of my organization?"

Yasmine said, "I said nothing to him at the underground market. Don't accuse me like that, boss! Although I'm grateful to him, I know what I should and shouldn't say."

Ivor squinted at Bonnie and questioned, "So, how'd you find out if Yasmine didn't tell you? Did you plant someone in my organization?"

Bonnie scoffed. "You love assuming the worst about people, huh?"

"Then how else did you know about what I did?" Ivor's eyes were cold.

Bonnie pursed her lips and said, "Did you think I wouldn't be able to find out if I wanted to? As for accusing me of planting a spy in your organization, that's ridiculous! I'm not that bored."

Ivor remembered hiding Yasmine's

identity as a Dark Knight member

with everything he had. Not only was

she his subordinate, but she was

also a star at Yale. It would

endanger her if people knew she

was a Dark Knight.

Still, Ivor never expected "Bonnie" to uncover Yasmine's identity so quickly. He could not help but wonder how capable Bonnie had to be to achieve that.

Bonnie noticed his silence but did not intend to argue. Instead, she sat back down and sipped her tea.

Yasmine was curious about

Bonnie's demeanor, asking, "Sir, are

us

you an important member of the Dark Knights or something? You look even more impressive than my boss regarding how you sit and drink tea."

"I, uh-"

Yasmine interrupted, "Why don't you join us? My boss values talented people, after all. We'll value you more than the Nidhoggs. The best part is, I get to see you daily!"
