I Love You, Miss Genius

"Did you take the bullet out already?" Yasmine gawked at the bloody bullet that Bonnie extracted from her thigh. "Why didn't I feel any pain, though?"

"Well. Taking the bullet out would've caused you a sharp pain that only lasted a second, but your pain from earlier overshadowed it. That's why you didn't feel anything when I took it out."

Bonnie took another medicinal powder out and poured it on Yasmine's thigh before bandaging up her wound.

Needless to say, Bonnie was being humble. A huge reason Yasmine was spared the pain was because Bonnie was extremely proficient at this.

Yasmine watched as Bonnie wrapped her wound like a professional. She felt overwhelmed with admiration.

"You're so awesome. It feels like you just know everything."

"This isn't anything special. It's just a minor surgery." Bonnie waved modestly.

That only served to make Yasmine like her even more.

"I might not have known anything about medicine, but I've witnessed doctors performing surgeries with my own eyes. You haven't shown much, but what you did is enough to tell me that you've surpassed ordinary doctors."

Bonnie raised her eyebrows. "You've witnessed doctors performing surgeries with your own eyes? This isn't something a celebrity should've had the chance to see under normal circumstances. Just who—" She was about to ask who Yasmine really was, but she couldn't say it because she heard someone trying to kick the door down.

Thud thud thud!

Then it was followed by a ruckus.

"I know for a fact that the door to this warehouse has always remained open. Now, however, someone has locked it up. They're probably in there. Put your backs into it and kick down the door." "Get a move on! Mr. Billy said he wanted both of them alive so he could interrogate them and find out who they served. Don't let them escape again."

"Throw your weight behind the door! It'll break down soon if all of us kick together!"

"This isn't working. The door is too sturdy. We have to ram it open."

About ten seconds later, Bonnie and Yasmine could hear something thrusting against the door, producing a dull sound.

The door, which was shut tight a second ago, was showing subtle signs of being forced open.

Yasmine's face turned pale for a second before she turned and instinctively looked at Bonnie. "What should we do now?"

After she asked, she was shocked

by an entirely different notion. 'I can't

believe it. We haven't known each

other for too long, and yet I've already relied on this man ora subconscious level.

Meanwhile, Bonnie was unperturbed. "See if you can stand."

"Got it." Just hearing Bonnie's composed voice was enough to calm Yasmine down.

Then, she tried to stand up, but she slumped toward the ground due to the excruciating pain in her thigh.

Bonnie acted swiftly and caught her in time. "You can't stand? Is it because the pain is too great to bear?"

They were in a dire situation and Yasmine had no wish to become a burden to Bonnie.

So, she tried standing again, only to sense a spastic pain shooting up from her thigh. She couldn't help but groan painfully as beads of sweat covered her forehead.

Bonnie could tell what Yasmine was thinking and reached out to pat the latter on the shoulder.

"Don't push yourself if you can't stand up. I have a way to get you out of here." Yasmine stared at Bonnie's handsome disguise. All of a sudden, she felt a little dispirited.

"Am I a burden to you? We're already in a dire situation. My foot is just making things—"

Bonnie cut her off and said, "That's enough. This isn't the time to feel sorry for yourself. What matters now is that we make it out of this hellhole in one piece."

Biting her lips, Yasmine nodded furiously.

"Alright! Your word is my command. I'll do everything you ask me to do and not be a burden to you."

"I've never thought of you as a

burden since the moment I decided to save you. So, I want you to stop thinking about yourself in that manner." Bonnie walked over and estimated the height from the window.

Then, she looked for something to stand up on. She found and dragged a chair and said to Yasmine, "Come over here."
