Chapter 54

Giving in to Her Rebellious Streak657 words~4 min read

“Alright.” Yasmin was still quite calm. With the two men outside cursing at her, she would be a fool

to open the door.

Seeing that she refused to open the door, one of the men went insane. He hooked his hands under

the car and tried to lift it.

Yasmin’s face drained of color. “What are you doing?”

These drunkards seemed to have lost their minds after drinking so much.

The car lifted into the air, and Yasmin’s heart clenched. At that critical moment, someone rushed

over and pulled the burly man off, then punched him.

Upon turning around, the burly man found himself surrounded by numerous bodyguards, and a

beating lasting half an hour followed.

When the car landed back on the ground, Yasmin’s heart went into overdrive from fear. She

clutched her chest. At that moment, she saw an elegant man walking over. A pair of frameless

glasses were perched on his high nose. He had a quiet air to him.

Ivan?

Before she could finish processing everything, Ivan was already standing in front of her. He bent

over and smiled at her through the window. “Hello, Ms. Starr.”

Yasmin was confused. “Mr. Burke, what are you doing here?”

Lifting his phone, Ivan pointed to the log of the earlier phone conversation. What he meant was, “I’m

indeed Mr. Burke.”

The same Mr. Burke that she was going on a blind date with.

Yasmin was stunned.

She knew Annalise would introduce a decent guy to her, but she never imagined that it was Ivan

Burke, the president of the NAS Group.

She was in a daze.

Why would a man like Ivan need to go on blind dates?

Did he know that she was Blake’s wife?

“Ms. Starr, are you alright?” Ivan’s secretary, Summer Faye, came over and asked.

Yasmin remembered that Summer had once greeted her at the NAS Group. Now that she had

mostly calmed down, she nodded. “Mr. Burke, you’re the person that Annalise–no, Mrs. Ford–set

me up on a blind date with?”

She opened the door and got down.

“Yes.” Ivan gave her a faint smile. “Did Mrs. Ford not tell you my full name?”

“No.” Yasmin shook her head. Perhaps Annalise had wanted to surprise her.

“Did you injure your arm?” Ivan noticed how she couldn’t really raise her arm, so he reached out to

support her. “Does it hurt?”

“It’s alright. Earlier, when I got rear–ended, my arm hit the steering wheel,” Yasmin admitted.

Ivan frowned and said to Summer, “Take those two drunkards down to the police station. and give a

statement. Make sure to work out the investigations and settlements. I’ll take Ms. Starr to the

hospital first.”

“Yes!” Summer said.

“Thanks.”

Yasmin was still in a daze from the accident just now. Ivan helped her into his Bentley and then

drove her to the hospital..

When they arrived, he helped her inside. He then asked her to sit down and rest while he went to

register.

Yasmin cradled her injured hand. While she sat there, she took two more glances at him.

She had always thought that Ivan would be a lofty man. She never thought that he would be so

caring in every possible way, even knowing to help her register at the hospital. She couldn’t help but

feel endeared to him.

If she married a man like this, she would most likely live happily, right?

Ivan returned several minutes later. He even bought her some strawberry milk. “You haven’t had

dinner, have you? Have some milk to fill your stomach first. Once w

get your arm

looked at, I’ll take you out to eat.”

Yasmin was surprised. “Thank you.

“Let’s go.” Ivan walked her to the consultation room. The entire time, he carefully guarded

her as they walked because he was afraid that someone would bump into her arm.

Although she was incredibly grateful, Yasmin also felt a little uncomfortable and moved away

slightly.
