Chapter 215 Despise

Just after Nicole left the room, Joanna followed.

Nicole saw her entering the ladies just after she was done. Since both of them weren’t familiar with each other,

Nicole simply washed her hands and did not intend to pay any attention to Joanna.

Seeing Nicole ignoring her, Joanna approached Nicole herself.

She put on an apologetic face and said hypocritically, “Miss Lisa, I’m sorry that my design happened to match Triton

Studio’s jewelry.”

Hearing that, Nicole simply glanced at Joanna and saw the woman’s pretentious apologetic expression. However,

Nicole wasn’t angry. She hummed nonchalantly, her eyes squinting.

Joanna found it odd that Nicole wasn’t angry. Nonetheless, she moved closer to Nicole and said, “Wendy actually

prefers yours. I simply benefited unfairly from the jewelry.”

“At least you know that,” Nicole said while looking leisurely at Joanna with her lips pursed.

Joanna had not expected Nicole to be so candid, so when she heard that, she changed her expression. After a

while, she regained her composure and said smilingly, “But Wendy chose my design eventually. She will be wearing

my design at her eighteenth birthday party!”

To that, Nicole turned off the water-tap and said coldly, “You’re just an opportunist who cut corners.”

Then, she turned to face Joanna and said disdainfully, “I thought the Gardner Corporation’s design director is

someone upright, but it turns out that she would conspire with outsiders just to win.”

Joanna’s expression changed when she heard that. “Miss Lisa, are you being so nasty to me just because I won?”

she asked, her eyes narrowed and her face filled with displeasure.

Nicole didn’t want to waste any more time with Joanna on meaningless conversations. As a result, she wiped her

hands clean and turned to face Joanna. “If you truly believe your design will win, you should compete fairly rather

than using such despicable means,” Nicole stated, to which Joanna retorted, “That’s just a coincidence. Don’t tell

me F&M Apparel’s Chief Designer is someone who can’t accept defeat?”

Nicole ignored her. Throwing the used tissues into the trash, she said indifferently, “Who said I’ve lost?”

And she left right after her words.

Joanna frowned as she looked at Nicole’s leaving figure. She was so annoyed by Nicole’s arrogant demeanor even

after losing!

Meanwhile, Nicole returned to the private room and saw Queenie happily conversing with Anna. When Queenie

noticed Nicole had returned, she turned around to face her and said, “You’re back, sis.”

Nicole, however, ignored her. She had no intention of appearing close to Queenie in front of the others. She

thought it was disgusting.

Nicole’s attitude didn’t bother Queenie either. She simply dismissed it as Nicole’s annoyance at losing to Joanna,

and she smiled as she thought about it. Then, she lowered her head to look at her watch before saying, “Wendy

and Mrs. Gardner, it is getting late. I shall leave first.”

Due to the fact that Queenie managed to get Triton Studio’s jewelry, Anna had grown fond of her. “Okay,” Anna

responded with a nod.

Queenie then took a look at Nicole before leaving arrogantly.

When Joanna returned, Nicole was still here. After some patronizing words, she was about to leave as well, but

Nicole sat there with no intention of leaving at all.

Thinking that Nicole was up to no good, she frowned and said, “Miss Lisa, our lunch break is almost over. Let’s go

back together.”

Anna cut her off right after she finished speaking. “Joanna, you may leave first. I need to speak with Nicole about

something else.”

With that, Joanna looked profoundly at Nicole, wondering why Anna had asked her to stay. But she was certain that

with Triton Studio’s jewelry, Nicole would not be able to turn the tides no matter what she did.
