Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 1781

“No, I won’t.”

“Is your transfer back to Eldoria because of your boyfriend?”

Milka replied, “I can’t deny he’s part of the reason, but my father’s health and orders from upper management also brought me back.”

“If you had to choose—stay in Eldoria or return to headquarters—which would it be?”

Milka didn’t hesitate. “I’d stay here.”

“And if the company tells you to transfer?”

“Has that order come down yet? If not, I’m not interested in ‘what if’ questions.”

“Fair enough. Let’s talk about work.” Fielding’s voice turned more businesslike. “Last quarter, our longtime partners at Suncrest Group missed their targets. That account’s your responsibility. Anything to say?”

Milka just smiled. “I suppose headquarters already heard some gossip. I don’t have much to add. If Suncrest Group has an issue, they can come to me directly. If it’s just colleagues with complaints, there’s no need for all this behind-the-scenes drama.”

Fielding picked up on her meaning—she knew someone was reporting on her. Trying to smooth things over, he said quickly, “This is just a routine check. Don’t take it to heart.”

After the call, Milka headed back to the office. She looked straight at Director Grant’s office, just as he looked up and caught her eye.

Grant’s heart jumped. He blinked, then forced a calm nod at Milka before ducking back into his office.
