Chapter 222 You Actually Think You Are Worthy of It?
Seeing as how Joanna adamantly refused to come out with the truth, Nicole was no longer in the mood to continue
discussing this topic with her.
She went straight to the point when she asked, “So what is the reason for this nice, surprise visit?”
Queenie took a step forward and walked ahead to sit down on the sofa. The corners of her mouth then slightly
curled upward. “I am your little sister, after all. Why are you not pouring your dear sister a cup of tea now that I
have dropped by your office?”
Nicole glanced at Queenie, then looked back at Joanna before she quietly laughed, “Don’t address me as you
please. I feel like throwing up every time you do that.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQueenie’s expression changed ever so slightly. She knew that Nicole had a smart mouth, but she didn’t think Nicole
wouldn’t even pretend to be close with her for appearances’ sake now.
The good thing was that Queenie was thick-skinned enough to stay unbothered. “Even though Dad has cut ties with
you, you still have the blood of the Anderson Family flowing in your veins. I don’t think it is wrong for me to call you
my sister, no?”
Nicole jolted to a pause when she heard Queenie’s words. She clicked when she found her tongue again. “Does this
make every Anderson there is on earth your sister? Weird, but I didn’t know my mother had given birth to someone
as evil as you.”
Queenie’s face gradually flushed red after Nicole had blocked her off with her retort. She stood up with a huff, her
dark eyes staring at Nicole unmovingly.
“I am speaking to you nicely, Nicole. Stop getting in my face. Is this how a Chief Designer should behave?”
With an excited look on her face, Joanna was watching the two of them as the fight got more intense by the
second. It was like she was watching a lion and a tiger going at each other. It would be wonderful if they both lost—
she would be the hunter who harvested the wounded beasts’ hides then.
“I am also telling you nicely to not try to use your connections with me or call me your sister. It is too much for me
to take!” Nicole exclaimed.
Fortunately, Queenie was still conscious enough to remember the reason she had come here. After suppressing her
emotions, she quietly hinted at Joanna.
Joanna wasn’t planning to get involved and wanted to let the two of them continue arguing with each other, but
seeing how they were gradually cooling down, she quickly stepped forward and played the part of a mediator.
“Come one, Miss Lisa. You are siblings no matter what. Don’t let something this small hurt your relationship.” A
smile began to appear on her face then. “Miss Queenie only came here to congratulate you after she heard that
you have become the founder of ‘Ann’.”
Looking at Joanna putting on an act, Nicole didn’t hold back on exposing her the next moment.
“Oh? Is that so?” A hint of mockery could be seen in her gaze as she looked at Joanna from head to toe. “Are you
here to congratulate me as well, Director Schmidt? Even though I am the one who designed most of the main
products, you have also put in a lot of hard work. Don’t you feel angry that I am the only one whose efforts were
recognized?”

Even though a storm was starting to brew within Joanna when she heard Nicole’s question, she put on a generous
and nonchalant face as she said lightly, “I have nothing to be angry about. After all, you are the one who has
worked the hardest.”
Nicole only snickered without saying another word.
After Queenie calmed down, she suddenly recalled the purpose of her visit this time. She then looked up at the
clothes Nicole was designing.
She had come here with the intention of upsetting Nicole by reminding her of her defeat, but she didn’t want Nicole
to start doubting the reason she and Joanna were here.
“Sis, let’s stop embarrassing ourselves since Wendy has chosen Director Schmidt’s design. What is the point of you
rushing to make it when you know that Wendy isn’t going to wear it? Don’t you think it is a waste of time?” Queenie
suddenly remembered something else after she said that. “If you really have too much free time on your hands,
you can design a set for me. I promise to wear it. I will even wear it during Wendy’s birthday party.”
Knowing that Queenie was mocking her, Nicole couldn’t help sneering, “You actually think you are worthy of it?”
She then slowly closed her eyes. Not wanting to continue with this meaningless game of tug-of-war with them, she
waved them off. “Say what you came here to say. We are not close enough to be asking about each other’s lives.”
