Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 1665

In the afternoon, Anya wrapped up her paperwork and made her way to Ms. Zheng's office.

After work, she couldn't help but linger by the door, waiting for Milka. The second Milka stepped out of the building, Anya practically skipped over, throwing her arms around her in a burst of excitement. "Milka, I adore you! Please, hurry up and become my aunt already—I seriously can't wait, you're just too awesome!"

Milka couldn't help laughing. "What are you talking about? Aunt?" Then, noticing how animated Anya was, she asked, "Did you do what I suggested this afternoon?"

Anya grinned and nodded. "I went straight to Ms. Zheng, just like you told me I should. I told her everything. She gave me a hard time for keeping things bottled up and said I need to speak up sooner. She even teased me for being too trusting. But honestly, I could tell she was on my side-she was really looking out for me.

And get this-later in the afternoon, Ms. Zheng called out Patty for what she did to me. She didn't mention any names, but everyone in the office knew exactly who she meant. Patty's face was priceless!"

Anya was practically glowing as she shared her little victory with Milka at the door.

Milka slipped her arm through Anya's as they strolled toward the car, exuding that protective, big-sister vibe. "You're Ms. Zheng's assistant, you know. If someone messes with you, it makes her look bad too. No decent boss would let their assistant take the fall like that. And honestly, if Ms. Zheng was the type to listen to Patty's flattery and ignore the truth, she wouldn't have made it this far."
