I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1368

Yasmine already felt downhearted because Boyd would return home soon. Now that Ivor spoke to her harshly, she felt sorry for herself.

“I wish I could stop these feelings, but I just can’t control them! It feels like someone punched him in the gut when I think about him leaving and that I might never see him again.” Yasmine began to tear up as she looked at Ivor helplessly.

She added, “You keep telling me to suppress my feelings, but let’s say you fell in love with your wife at first sight. Then, you find out she’s married. Would you give up on her, or would you keep trying to win her heart?”

Ivor was stunned. After all, Yasmine asked an excellent question.

‘I don’t even have to think about it. I already know my answer. I wouldn’t care if Bonnie was married or not. I’d still try to win her over, no matter what. That said, Yasmine’s situation is different from mine.’

Ivor was in the middle of his thoughts when he heard Yasmine’s voice, “I know you won’t give up trying. You wouldn’t stop until she’s yours, right?”

Ivor did not deny it. On the contrary, he admitted, “You’re right. I wouldn’t give up trying.”

Then, he squinted and continued, “However, if I managed to win her heart, that means she was unhappy with her marriage. If she’s willing to be with me, I wouldn’t mind her being a divorcee. On the contrary, I’d love her even more.

“That said, I won’t force it if I can’t win her heart. I’d just wish her happiness and keep my distance from her.”

It was just a simple hypothesis, a harmless imagination. Even so, the thought of Bonnie being married to someone else felt like someone had stabbed Ivor’s heart. At that moment, he realized how grateful he was to be married to her.

Yasmine clenched her fists and said firmly, “Well, I’m the same way with Boyd! I don’t want to let him go!”

Ivor felt a headache coming on. He massaged his temples in thought before saying solemnly, “Boyd has rejected you several times now. That should tell you what you need to know. He saved you out of kindness. Have you considered that? What if you keep bugging him, and he starts hating you?”

Yasmine understood her boss’s meaning, but she could not control herself. “This will be the last time I bug him. It doesn’t matter if he ends up disliking me. After all, we won’t see each other anymore.”

She dared not say the next part aloud, so she muttered, “That’s why I must be courageous this time and get closure.”

Ivor did not hear the last part. He frowned and asked, “What was that?”

Yasmine feared he would see through her and felt a pang of panic. She then shook her head and said, “I-It’s nothing.”

Ivor instinctively reminded her, “I’ve told you not to do anything stupid countless times, Yasmine.”

“Okay, I understand.” Although she seemed obedient, she did not mean what she said. She had a plan and would not tell her boss about it.

‘It’s between me and Boyd. I must decide what to do myself. If I tell the boss what I’m about to do, he’ll only try to stop me.’
