The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 233

The next day.

Randolph was laid to rest. Danielle didn’t attend the funeral—there really wasn’t any need for her to be there.

She went to Ninesky and held a brief meeting.

Once the meeting wrapped up, Audrey hurried after her.

She hesitated, glancing at Danielle before finally speaking up. “About firing Millie… people aren’t too happy about it. I mean, after all—”

After all, Millie was something of a star in the industry. Having her on board would have been a real feather in their cap.

Danielle paused, coffee in hand, turning her head to look at Audrey. Her tone was cool. “If they’re really that fond of Millie, they’re welcome to resign and follow her to whichever company she joins next.”

Audrey caught the indifference in her voice, and her smile faltered, a bit awkward.

It was true, she and Danielle hadn’t exactly gotten along when Danielle first joined the company, though they’d managed to work things out since then.

But some things just linger between people, no matter how you try to move past them.

She bit her lip, lowering her voice. “That’s not what I meant. It’s just—people downstairs aren’t convinced. If someone’s going to be fired, they want a reason that makes sense.”

“A reason?” Danielle set her coffee down on a side table, arching an eyebrow at Audrey. “Anyone with eyes can see it.”

Millie walked into Ninesky acting like she was above everyone else. She refused to do any work assigned to her, no matter what it was.

How could you keep someone like that?

Audrey pressed her lips together. “Of course, I get it. You’re not the type to mix business with personal grudges.”

After all, she herself hadn’t exactly made things easy for Danielle in the beginning, but Danielle had let it go without holding it against her.

And it’s not like Danielle and Millie had any personal conflict, so firing her out of spite didn’t add up.

“I just worry that, as a leader, if you lose people’s trust—”

Danielle had gotten caught in the rain yesterday and was still feeling under the weather.

She rubbed her aching temples. “If anyone has a problem, they can come to my office and tell me directly.”
