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?”
