Chapter 306 A New Broom Sweeps Clean
Nicole didn’t even feel the slightest bit of anger as she got to her feet. “You’re right. I do have to clear this space. Why don’t you give me a few minutes to clean up before I leave? How does that sound?”
Joanna hadn’t expected Nicole to agree so easily as she thought that Nicole would throw a whole fuss over it. But, since Joanna wanted to seem like a nice person in front of Kylie, she naturally agreed to Nicole’s suggestion. “Of course. Please go ahead, Miss Lisa.”
Kylie had been under Nicole’s command for a long time, so she felt the need to seize this chance to get back at Nicole now that she could do it. After she glanced at the whole office, her gaze landed on Nicole’s table and stool before she spoke with an unimpressed look on her face. “I’m the head designer of F&M Apparel, Director Schmidt. You don’t expect me to reuse the things someone else has used, right?”
Joanna instantly understood what Kylie meant, and nodded while shifting her focus onto the table. “I know. I’ll get the logistics department to throw out everything in this office!”
Nicole could tell that the other two women were trying to bully her, but she simply stood by the side without saying anything. Once they finished making their sarcastic comments, she started clearing her things out.
Kylie opened the room door to peek at the people outside before looking at Joanna. “I hope my work environment is nice and clean, Director Schmidt. I don’t like that someone else had been using this room in the past, and I hope you can sanitize the place so that I don’t catch some virus here,” she practically hollered for the whole office to hear.
Whitney was sitting outside, but she had seen Kylie entering a while ago. Whitney had tried her best to keep her mouth shut, but she hadn’t expected Kylie to speak in such an offensive manner. Whitney
was the hot-tempered woman, so she charged over and shouted at Kylie. “Who do you think you are, Kylie? You’re just someone who’s picking up the trash that Nicole doesn’t want anymore!”
Kylie was even more annoyed when she saw Whitney, and raised her hand to push Whitney away. “Who do you think you are? You’ve quit your position at F&M Apparel, so you should just leave this place now. You’re such an eyesore!”
After working under Nicole for such a long time, Kylie finally had the chance to get her revenge. “You —” Whitney’s expression darkened. She was about to say something when Nicole interrupted her. “That’s enough, Whitney. Let’s pack up and leave now.” Nicole’s voice was calm and gentle—she didn’t sound angry at all. It was almost as if she didn’t have any reaction to Kylie’s insults.
Joanna’s tone softened a little when she saw Nicole walking out. “I don’t have a choice, Miss Lisa. This office was meant for the head designer of F&M Apparel, and Gardner Corporation’s design department works with F&M Apparel as well. So, this time…”
Nicole scoffed when she saw how Joanna was still trying to act friendly in front of her. “This is Gardner Corporation, and this is the design department, so of course, I’ll have to obey your orders, Director Schmidt. You told me to clear the room, so I cleared the place before I even finished the stuff I was working on.”
Joanna intended to exert her power over Nicole in front of the rest of the design department while also acting all generous and lovely. But she hadn’t expected Nicole to turn the tables around. Instead, since it was Kylie who had requested to work with Joanna, she stood on Joanna’s side and spoke up for Joanna. “I think you should just hurry up and chase off these people who aren’t related to Gardner Corporation, Director Schmidt. Otherwise, things would get complicated if some of the company’s private files get leaked to the public.”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Kylie was all prepared to show her authority now that she had obtained this role in the company. She even sounded a lot cockier after she got her position as the head designer, and she clearly directed all her words toward Nicole.
