“A mistress?!” Yasmine was instantly taken aback. “Boss, do I look like someone who would destroy a family?”
Ivor's brows were slightly relaxed. “Then what did you mean?”
“What did I just say?” Yasmine pondered for a moment. “Are you referring to when I said his marriage doesn't stop me from liking him?”
Ivor nodded faintly. “Yes.”
“Oh,” Yasmine waved her hand dismissively with a smile. “I admire and revere my savior like a heroic figure. It has nothing to do with romantic feelings.”
“But you don’t seem just to admire him as a savior.” Ivor looked directly at Yasmine, his gaze filled with curiosity.
Yasmine still found Ivor intimidating, but she had no reason to feel guilty when talking about her savior. She was just being honest.
“After all, he saved my life. Of course, I want to get closer to him.” Yasmine met Ivor’s gaze with a straightforward expression.
Ivor stared deeply into Yasmine’s eyes until he saw no hint of inappropriate emotions before looking away.
“If that’s truly how you feel, then it’s for the best. Now that you know he has a family, you should keep your distance and avoid doing anything that could harm your reputation.”
“I understand, Boss. I have my limits.” Yasmine gave Ivor a reassuring look.
