The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1904

The employees sitting across from him didn't dare breathe a word.

Instead, they covertly gossiped on their phones.

Employee 1: [I heard he went through a bad breakup. Is it true?]

Employee 2: [Wrong, he totally got dumped!]

Employee 3: [Don't talk nonsense. He just got rejected after confessing his feelings!]

Roger getting rejected?

Did that even defy the laws of physics?

Obviously, yes!

Employee 1: [He just hit the biggest roadblock of his life.]

Employee 2: [A while ago, someone asked—since he's so handsome, rich, and brilliant at his job, what flaw could God have possibly given him? Well, now we know!]

Employee 3: [He's in a terrible mood, which means our lives are going to be absolute hell.]

"Doesn't the institute have a field-support program scheduled for mid-July?"

The sudden question snapped the three employees back to reality.

"Yes, sir," Employee 1 replied quickly. "We've already scheduled the new hires to go. It lasts about two weeks."

"Put me on the roster."

Roger demanded without a second thought.

"You, sir?" The employee balked, needing to double-check. "The village we're going to is incredibly remote and underdeveloped. The conditions are extremely rough. Are you absolutely sure?"

"Yes."

Roger nodded. "I'll handle the explanations with upper management."

Typically, a senior executive like him wouldn't be caught dead doing grunt work in the field.

"Understood."

The three employees exchanged a terrified glance, their faces paling.

They were doomed.

He had truly been pushed over the edge.
