Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 1530

After hanging up, Mr. Nettleton dropped his laid-back act. He got out of the car, handed his phone to his assistant, and strode forward with the swagger of someone who knew exactly what he was doing—a gun tucked at his waist, glinting in the sunlight. “Nice to finally meet you. I’m Conner.”

Miles reached out, matching Conner’s grip in a handshake. “Heard a lot about you, Mr. Nettleton. I’m Miles.”

Conner smirked. “So, you Dark Web guys running the old ‘Triple Transfer’ trick? Where’s the Boss, the Mover, and the Shifter?”

Miles hesitated, thrown off for just a second. Wasn’t Conner supposed to be ruthless? He’d heard stories about how dangerous the man was, but right now, he seemed almost too easygoing.

Then their eyes met. For a moment, Miles caught the cold edge behind Conner’s smile—a flash of something lethal. He straightened unconsciously. This guy was every bit as dangerous as the rumors said.

Conner’s car rolled forward, but Miles waved off the offer to ride together. Soon enough, Dark Web’s own car pulled up. The two vehicles drove side by side toward the meeting spot.

Inside Conner’s car, his assistant fidgeted. “Boss, why aren’t we just charging in? Quick in, quick out. That’s how you always do it.”

Conner, uncharacteristically serious, replied, “You know what’s waiting in there? How many people? How many exits? Where they’re keeping everyone?”

The assistant glanced out the window. “I only saw him with two guys. Why not just grab him when we get there?”

Conner kept his eyes on the side mirror, watching the other car. “The guard on the right? He’s strapped with explosives. The trigger’s in his hand. If we mess with him, all our guys are dead. I’m about to be a dad. I need to stick around long enough to change my little girl’s diapers.”

The assistant muttered a curse. “Damn. That’s cold. So how are we getting your sister-in-law and Dean out?”

Conner shook his head. “No rush. Dean’s their leverage over Maja, and they need Maja to cough up the shipment location. Dark Web’s worked too hard for that stash to give up now. Neither of them is dying anytime soon—they’ll just get roughed up a bit.

My sister-in-law? She brought it on herself. She teamed up with the wrong people and now she’s running for her life with nothing to show for it. Dean, though… poor guy. After all this, she’d better marry him just to make it up to him.”
