I Love You, Miss Genius ( Bonnie Shepard ) novel Chapter 1379

"But… I was just following orders." Floyd scratched the back of his head innocently.

'I merely carried out Ivor's order to look for Yasmine last night. I wouldn't have done it otherwise. But now she's blaming it on me.”

"The point is, it's your fault." Yasmine knew she had said the wrong thing. So her eyes shifted.

It wasn't as if Yasmine hadn't done something similar in the past. Floyd treated her as a younger sister, just like Ivor did.

That was why he didn't get mad at Yasmine. Instead, he went along with her.

"Alright, okay. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have shown up at your door last night."

Yasmine could tell that Floyd was soothing her. So, she reluctantly relaxed a little. "You know it."

Floyd stared at her red, swollen eyes. Then, something popped into his mind. "Are you not seeing Boyd off at the airport because of your swollen eyes?"

"Yeah…" Yasmine pursed her lips, readily admitting it.

"This might be the last time we'll see each other. I want to leave a good impression on him. So, I don't want to see him when I look this hideous."

"So, that's what it is." Floyd nodded in understanding.

They were still chatting when they heard a buzzing sound.

Floyd's phone, which was in his pocket, started vibrating. He answered the call immediately.

"Hello? What do you need, Mr. Vic?"

He heard Ivor's charming voice from the other end of the phone. "I need you to look for Yasmine and tell her to find me."

"I'm with Yasmine right now. I'll tell her."

"Okay." Ivor hung up the phone.

Floyd remained quiet for a brief moment. "Well. You have to meet up with him."

"I guess you're right." Yasmine scratched her head, feeling frustrated. "I have to see him. Things will only get worse for me if I don't show up."

With that, she took a deep breath and walked courageously toward Ivor's room.

"Pray for me, Floyd. Pray that I won't suffer too terribly."

Floyd's lips twitched fiercely. "I don't think it'll be that bad…"

Yasmine didn't respond to him. She had already reached Ivor's hotel room and knocked.

Soon, Yasmine heard Ivor's voice.

"Come in."
