Chapter 305 The New Head Designer

Even though Benedict had recovered after being triggered by Olivia, his health deteriorated after the incident. The doctor previously promised him that he had at least six months to live, but this was no longer the case after he lost his temper. Benjamin felt sleepy all the time, perhaps because his tumor was pressing against one of the nerves in the brain.

Meanwhile, the Gardner Family had started placing their hopes on White’s apprentices and were actively searching for him in order to cure Benedict’s illness.

After Nicole quit her job at F&M Apparel, the company continued its partnership with Gardner Corporation. So, F&M Apparel naturally had to send someone else over. This person was none other than Kylie Simmons, the head designer of F&M Apparel. Nicole and Colton came to an agreement— they would use both Nicole and Gardner Corporation’s names as partners for the ‘Ann’ brand, while the person that F&M Apparel sent over would just be for decoration at the office.

On the first day that Kylie went over, she headed to Joanna’s room, and they had a friendly chat in the office. Both of them stepped out of the office while chit-chatting. Then, they walked hand in hand over to Nicole’s office. When Nicole looked up to see the uninvited guests in front of her, she put on a courteous smile as she raised her brows. “It’s rare to see you guys here.”

Kylie eyed Nicole with an unmistakable look of disdain on her face. Nicole was nobody now that she didn’t have F&M Apparel’s support. “Miss Lisa—No, I should call you Miss Anderson now.” Kylie took a step forward in her six-inch heels. The clicking sound of her heels filled the room whenever she walked. Nicole wasn’t an idiot—she knew what Kylie was doing there. After all, Kylie had already disliked her when she was still in F&M Apparel.

However, Nicole was the head designer back then, while Kylie wasn’t. So, Nicole still had power over Kylie. But now that Nicole had left, Kylie could show off her power in the office. She spread her red lips into a smirk as she gazed at Nicole. “You’re no longer the head designer of F&M Apparel now, Nicole. I’m the head designer,” Kylie uttered slowly.

Nicole lifted her head and rested her back against the chair as she sent a lazy gaze in Kylie’s direction. “I know. But you’re only getting this position now because I’ve quit my job. So, it’s interesting that you’re cherishing something I’m throwing away.”

Initially, Kylie had intended to come over and show off in front of Nicole, but she hadn’t expected Nicole to have such an offensive comeback. The look on Kylie’s face immediately changed as she spoke through gritted teeth. “Who do you think you are, Nicole? F&M Apparel had intended to fire you from the start. You would have been gone a long ago if it weren’t for President Yates!”

Nicole grinned when she saw the other woman losing her temper. “So, you came here because you were proud of the fact that you got a position I didn’t want, huh? Were you trying to show off in front of me?”

Joanna could tell that Kylie was no match for Nicole, so she hurried forward to comfort Kylie in a gentle tone. “Don’t be mad, Kylie. I’m sure that’s not what Miss Lisa meant.” After Joanna soothed Kylie’s ruffled feathers, she turned to look at Nicole while smiling. “Gardner Corporation has always had a partnership with F&M Apparel, Miss Lisa. Now that you’re not part of F&M Apparel…”

Nicole immediately understood what Joanna meant, and pressed her lips to form a smile. “Are you saying that you want me to clear this space for you?” Since Nicole got what Joanna meant, Joanna nodded and proceeded with her words. “I don’t want to do this either, Miss Lisa. Regardless, F&M Apparel had sent Kylie over to work with us, and this office was meant for F&M Apparel’s staff members.”

Joanna had made herself clear—she wanted to chase Nicole away! Nicole stared at Joanna for a long time as she swiftly moved her hands across her keyboard and reformatted the entire computer.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
