I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1248

"Our boss did indeed promise you that we would inform you at the earliest opportunity once there was any action, but it only applies to matters concerning Billy’s Organization.

“What we need to do now is solve internal issues within our organization, which have nothing to do with Billy. Therefore, Mr. Vic, the Dark Knight Organization doesn't need to know."

Upon hearing this, Ivor's eyebrows tightened even further, his deep and dark gaze fixed directly on Collin. Collin just sat in his chair, neither leaning nor dodging Ivor's gaze.

He thought. ‘Well, if he wanted to stare, let him. It's not like I would lose anything!’

Although that's what he thought, the aura emanating from Ivor was too strong, almost on par with his boss, which made it hard to ignore. In just a moment, he felt a chill down his spine and goosebumps rising. Of course, for the sake of his pride, even if he had to pretend, he had to keep his composure.

For a moment, neither of them spoke, leaving the atmosphere somewhat tense. Yasmine weakly spoke up from the side after seeing this, "Our boss doesn't mean anything else. It's just that we're a bit worried about the safety of your boss, so we came to check."

"Huh," Collin chuckled coldly. "Are you really worried about my boss's safety, or are you worried about not being able to borrow the chip?"

Although everyone knew the situation, being directly exposed like this made it different. Ivor's gaze grew darker and colder at Collin's words, but he remained silent, his lips tightly pursed.

Floyd couldn't bear it and spoke up. "While it's true that we want to borrow the chip from the Nidhogg Organization, it's also with your boss's permission and under contract.

“What do you mean by this? Do you think we're coveting your chip and planning to go back on our word? After all, you're not the boss of the Nidhogg Organization. Can you make decisions on behalf of your boss?"

Collin frowned tightly, suddenly standing up from his chair. "You're coveting our chip, and you still have the nerve to argue?"

"But haven't we helped you as well? We didn't just take your chip for nothing, did we?" Floyd retorted coldly while locking eyes with Collin.

The two stared at each other, the air thick with tension.

Yasmine acted as a peacemaker. "We're all in a cooperative relationship. Let's be friendly, shall we?"

‘Who would have thought that our visit would turn into such a mess? If things got out of hand, I wouldn't be able to visit my savior openly anymore, right? So, we absolutely couldn't let things escalate... But obviously, they wouldn't listen to me. Then I could only pin my hopes on our boss!’

Yasmine turned her head to look at Ivor and whispered, "Boss, shouldn't you intervene? We can't let them escalate the situation, can we?"

Ivor glanced at her indifferently. "What do you think I should do?"

Just as Yasmine opened her mouth to speak, Collin's icy voice boomed through the room. "Anyway, there's nothing left to discuss since things have reached this point. You can leave now."

Floyd quickly responded with an equally cold tone, "You haven't clarified anything yet. Why should we leave? Besides, our two organizations have already signed a contract. You can't just dismiss us with a few words."
