Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 107

Mia's smile was soft as she said, "There you go calling me your kitten again." There was no accusation in her tone, just a hint of sweetness.

Leo shot her an annoyed glance.

At school, Leo and Jade discussed a lot about Mia and Andre.

"Oh my gosh, is it true? Mia has found true love after marriage?"

Looking at Mia grinning like an idiot while daydreaming, they both nodded, "It's true."

Jade sighed, "She was single for 20 years, but managed to find true love after marriage. That's some serious divine intervention."

Leo said, "I wish God would intervene for me too, and send Andre and her off to Maplewood Estates already. I can't stand them at home."

Jade replied, "Well, you're a guy, so you won't get divine intervention. You’ll have to fend for yourself."

In class, Mia's mind wandered to her husband while listening to the boring lecture.

And then, she started giggling.

Jade and Leo exchanged looks and shook their heads, "Even sitting this far, I can feel the lovey-dovey vibes coming from her."

At Cedillo Inc., CEO's office.

Austin, who had been criticized yesterday, came to the CEO's office again, this time presenting his new data with trembling hands. His heart hung in the air as Andre reviewed it.

Andre noticed that the data was finally correct. Just one glance from him yesterday had Austin scared out of his wits.

Andre asked, "I hear there's been trouble at home. What's your plan?"

Austin looked up in surprise at his boss, who seemed concerned about his personal life.

Andre's gaze wasn't as stern as it had been yesterday, but rather had a hint of caring enquiry.

Aware that his personal issues were known in the company, Austin said, "Sir, I won't let my personal issues affect my work. Please give me another chance."

If he lost his job again, it would be the end of the world for him.

Andre took a deep breath. Had he been too harsh before and made his subordinates so scared?

He said, "I won't fire you. If I give you a week off, can you sort out your home issues?"

"Sir." Austin looked at Andre. A week off? That sounded like he was being fired.

Andre thought to himself that when he's being nice, his subordinates seemed more scared of him.

He coughed twice, instantly reverting to his usual cold demeanor, and said to Austin sternly, "Sort out your home issues within a week. We'll find someone capable who can cover for you temporarily. If you bring personal issues to work after a week, resign."

Austin replied, "Yes, yes, thank you, sir." Seeing Andre back to normal, he felt relieved and grateful.

"You don't need to thank me. It was my wife's idea."

"Wife?" Austin was puzzled. He'd never met Andre's wife. How did she know about his issues?

Andre thought of the playful girl, "The young girl you met yesterday, the one who was messing around, isn't my niece. She's my wife, Mia."

Austin exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!" He'd thought that girl was Andre's niece!

So, this was the legendary Mrs. Cedillo.

"Thank you, thank you!"

As Austin thanked him and was about to leave by taking the elevator, Alice appeared.

"Alice, any instructions?" Austin asked politely.

Alice replied, "As per the CEO's instructions, I've transferred 100,000 dollars to your bank account. Austin, don't let the CEO down."
