Chapter 230 Deliver the Dress

“The dress you made is just perfect, Miss Nicole. It fits like a glove and it looks good!”

It was probably because Wendy really did like it that the smile on her face became a lot more sincere.

There was a pleased glint in Nicole’s eyes when she nodded and said, “I am glad that you like it, Wendy.”

However, Joanna, who was sitting beside her, was fuming. She only managed to keep her temper at bay when she

tried her best to suppress her anger.

“Both dresses fit well. There is nothing I want altered,” Wendy said before she sat down beside Anna.

Anna also nodded in satisfaction. “You two have worked hard today.”

Joanna showed her a rather stiff smile while she shook her head. “No problem. As long as Wendy likes it.”

As they continued to chat for a little longer, Nicole said that she had to leave to attend to something else, so she

got up to leave soon after.

Anna seemed to think of something then, and she suddenly called out to Nicole. “Come here tomorrow again,

Nicole. I have something to tell you.”

Nicole immediately understood that it was probably about Hayden and Colton. “Sure.” She nodded. “I will be back

tomorrow.”

She left swiftly after answering Anna.

Nicole had just stepped out of the Gardner Residences gate and was about to get into her car when Joanna followed

after her. The sound of the latter’s heels clicking against the cemented ground was clear as day.

Joanna had her eyes on Nicole the whole time she stomped toward her. Her dark eyes even looked like they were

about to burst into flames. With her fists balled, Joanna growled through gritted teeth, “Miss Lisa, Wendy has

chosen me to design her dress. What the hell were you trying to do just now?!”

Nicole smiled when she looked at Joanna, who was on the verge of losing control. “I am only here to deliver the

dress. Weren’t you there the whole time, Director Schmidt? Don’t tell me you didn’t see what took place.”

Joanna’s anger went up another notch as she looked at the nonchalance of the woman in front of her. Fortunately,

she was educated and cultured enough to know better than to scream out loud now.

With her lips pursed, she mocked, “You are the esteemed Chief Designer of the F&M Apparel, Miss Lisa. I hope you

won’t resort to doing something underhanded.”

Nicole suddenly laughed when she heard Joanna’s words. She then turned to look at her and questioned,

“Underhanded? Oh—do enlighten me. Whatever could you possibly mean by that? Does colluding to come up with

the design draft beforehand count?”

Seeing that Nicole was still bringing this up, Joanna refused to admit to it no matter what. She calmed down slightly

and said, “Wendy has already chosen me as her designer. You shouldn’t get involved anymore, Miss Lisa!”

Joanna couldn’t do anything about ‘Ann’ now that the issue had been put to rest, but there was no way she would

hand the opportunity for the boost in her career through Wendy’s birthday banquet to someone else.

Nicole didn’t care about Joanna’s relentless pressing on the matter and she only sighed. “Director Schmidt, why do

you bother telling me all this if you have confidence in your design?”

The smile on Nicole’s face grew wider when she noticed how Joanna’s face fell after hearing her words.

She then continued, “Since you said that Wendy appointed you, you should do your job well. The only thing that you

would be showing people if Wendy ends up not wearing your dress at the birthday banquet is your incompetence.”

After indifferently saying those words, Nicole turned around and got into her car.

Joanna was so enraged that she was about to blow a gasket. Without saying a word, she only angrily stared as

Nicole’s car drove off into the distance.

Joanna tried her best to calm her heart then. Even though Nicole’s design was better than hers, there was no way

Nicole could cause any major problems as long as Joanna still had the jewelry Queenie had borrowed from Triton

Studio.

She trusted Anna that she would not allow Wendy to give up on an opportunity like this!

Now that she had calmed down, Joanna suddenly thought of something that brought a resentful glint to her eyes.

She had thought that Nicole wouldn’t be able to do anything to go against her, given the short period of time she

would be working at the Gardner Corporation. The situation now, however, seemed to have gotten a lot more

complicated than she hoped for.

Don’t blame me for coming for your neck if you ever threaten my peace, Nicole Anderson!
