âAlright.â 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.
Yasminâs face drained of color. âWhat are you doing?â
These drunkards seemed to have lost their minds after drinking so much.
The car lifted into the air, and Yasminâs 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, Yasminâs 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. âHello, Ms. Starr.â
Yasmin was confused. âMr. Burke, what are you doing here?â
Lifting his phone, Ivan pointed to the log of the earlier phone conversation. What he meant was, âIâm
indeed Mr. Burke.â
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 Blakeâs wife?
âMs. Starr, are you alright?â Ivanâs 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. âMr. Burke, youâre the person that Annaliseâno, Mrs. Fordâset
me up on a blind date with?â
She opened the door and got down.
âYes.â Ivan gave her a faint smile. âDid Mrs. Ford not tell you my full name?â
âNo.â Yasmin shook her head. Perhaps Annalise had wanted to surprise her.
âDid you injure your arm?â Ivan noticed how she couldnât really raise her arm, so he reached out to
support her. âDoes it hurt?â
âItâs alright. Earlier, when I got rearâended, my arm hit the steering wheel,â Yasmin admitted.
Ivan frowned and said to Summer, âTake those two drunkards down to the police station. and give a
statement. Make sure to work out the investigations and settlements. Iâll take Ms. Starr to the
hospital first.â
âYes!â Summer said.
âThanks.â
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 couldnât 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. âYou havenât had
dinner, have you? Have some milk to fill your stomach first. Once w
get your arm
looked at, Iâll take you out to eat.â
Yasmin was surprised. âThank you.
âLetâs go.â 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.
