Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200 Genuinely No Kinship

Nicole smiled and said nothing more.

When she saw such a scene, Joanna grabbed the folder and left.

As the door closed, Nicole looked down at the sketch she showed Wendy. At that, she picked it up, took a couple of ganders, then scrunched it up and chucked it into the bin.

It was her first sketch for Wendy, but she was never happy with how it turned out, so she gave up on it. To her surprise, Wendy had actually liked it.

Then, she smiled. The moment Wendy entered, she knew Joanna would surely come in and used this reject as a decoy. No doubt things would be interesting the following afternoon.

…

After leaving the Design Department, Anna and Wendy didn’t go home but went to the President’s office on the top floor.

Upon seeing the mother and daughter, Tony hurriedly approached them. “Mrs. Gardner, Miss Gardner, what brings you two here?”

At that, Wendy looked over at Tony. “Is Colton in the middle of something?”

Tony shook his head. “President Gardner has just finished a conference. He should be free now. Why don’t I bring you two over?”

Anna nodded with a smile, saying courteously, “Thank you.”

“The pleasure is mine.” Tony was flattered.

After escorting Anna and Wendy to Colton’s office, he immediately brought them refreshments in a manner that was as quick as a wink.

Upon seeing his family, Colton looked away from his computer and asked, “Mom, did you come to look for Nicole?”

Wendy had told him what had happened the evening before. Knowing his mother’s benign nature, she surely had taken the trip here because she felt terrible.

Anna nodded at that before she sat down on the sofa and took a sip of the freshly brewed coffee. “I’m sure your aunt had said some mean things. It was all my fault for being stubborn and it didn’t have much to do with Nicole.”
