Chapter 204 Confidence

“Got it,” Nicole uttered while nodding.

Seeing how indifferent Nicole was, Scarlett hesitated for a while before she asked, “Are they going to do something bad, Miss Nicole?”

Nicole lifted her gaze and glanced at Scarlett. Before she could speak, Whitney, who was beside her, didn’t hold back as she blurted out, “See, even a young bud like Scarlett can tell that the 2 of them are up to no good, Miss Nicole!”

Nicole immediately glared at Whitney and put her finger in front of her lips to make a shushing gesture.

“There are eyes everywhere. Lower your voice,” Nicole said quietly.

Whitney only started to calm down a little then. “Don’t worry,” she whispered. “Miss Nicole knows about it all. Just look at how smart she is. Does she seem like someone who would be taken advantage of?”

Upon hearing that, Scarlett lowered her head slightly in agreement with Whitney.

Nicole didn’t know how she felt about what she was witnessing. Whitney would always end up in fights with other people when they were still in F&M Apparel. Nicole never thought that there would come a day when Whitney could harmoniously coexist with such a young lady in Gardner Apparel.

“Queenie must have come to Joanna because of the dress Wendy would wear for her 18th birthday celebration,” Nicole pursed her lips and said in a soft and calm voice. “There is nothing much to say about it. It is all a battle between our abilities. I don’t mind admitting defeat if she designs something better than mine.”

Even though she was saying this casually, she actually had the confidence that Joanna’s designs were incomparable to her own.

Knowing that Nicole looked down on Joanna, Whitney only let out a low chuckle before the conversation ended.

The trio then went back to the office after they had lunch. Nicole picked up a file and flipped to the design draft she had come up with. The clothes were almost done being modified. In fact, she had redone it many times in order to match the dress with the jewelry.
