I Love You, Miss Genius (Bonnie Shepard and Ivor Knight) novel Chapter 1102

Ivor wanted to say something but realized there were too many passersby. He looked at Yasmine and whispered, “Let’s go inside. This isn’t the place to talk.”

“Okay.” She limped inside with Ivor and Floyd in tow while the rest of his men holed up nearby.

Once inside the apartment, Yasmine lay on the couch and yawned. “Go ahead and ask me anything you want, but do it quick. I want to sleep as soon as you finish. I’m exhausted.”

Ivor looked at her bandaged wound and asked, “How’d you get hurt?”

“I got shot,” Yasmine responded as if it was not a big deal.

“You got shot?!” Ivor frowned. “You should’ve been able to make a safe getaway according to the escape routes I prepared for you. How’d you get shot? Did you get exposed?”

Yasmine recalled what she experienced earlier and felt a shiver down her spine. She frowned and said, “It’s not about that. Billy has been suspicious of me and set me up.”

She never expected that to happen.

After some thought, Ivor asked, “Did you have any run-ins with him?”

“Not exactly. Billy used to have nasty ideas about me, but I slipped through his fingers several times. However, I got your orders this time and drank the spiked wine during the party. I let them take me to the underground market and auction me off to the highest bidder.

“Then, I followed the plan and hypnotized Billy. I thought I executed the plan flawlessly, but I didn’t know he and Micah set up the whole thing. Billy and his men would’ve caught me if I hadn’t encountered the guy who saved me. I wouldn’t be talking to you now if it weren’t for him.”
