Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220 Nicole Is Also Making It

Joanna’s expression finally softened. Indeed, it was true—at least she was the one who would design the dress Wendy would wear to the celebration of her 18th birthday.

The media would be there in order to kiss up to the Gardners when the time came. Hence, Joanna was sure that the clothes she designed would become a trending topic as well!

The look on her face only slightly brightened when she thought about this.

Letting out a soft laugh, she turned to Lexi, and only said, “I probably don’t look too well now because these days have been exhausting for me.”

Lexi immediately understood that Joanna didn’t want her to think that she was angry about Nicole being the founder of ‘Anna’. “That is right, Miss Joanna.” She nodded her head and continued, “You must be worn out from designing Miss Gardner’s dress day in and day out.”

Hearing that, Joanna slowly replied, “I am alright. It is something I should do. After all, it is Wendy’s coming-of-age ceremony. Of course it will have to be grand.”

“Mrs. and Miss Gardner must really like you for them to let you handle the dress for such a ceremonious event,” Lexi added.

Joanna didn’t say anything else after that. Truth was, she knew why Anna and Wendy chose her as Wendy’s designer.

If they were only comparing the designs… Even Joanna was aware that she could never win against the one that Nicole drew.

Lexi was an observant person who read moods well. Sensing Joanna’s reluctance to continue this topic, she swiftly brought up something else.

“Miss Joanna, even though Mrs. and Miss Gardner have chosen your design, I have noticed that Lisa has been making clothes these days.”

It was now Joanna’s turn to be surprised. “She is making clothes as well?” she asked to make sure. “Are you sure it is the one she designed for Wendy?”

“I am quite sure it is. I peeked into Lisa’s office one time when her door was open, and I saw her making it in her office,” Lexi said.

A flash of doubt appeared in Joanna’s eyes then. Just what is Nicole up to?

After thinking about it for a while, she nodded and commented, “It is probably for Wendy to wear at some other event. Let’s not worry about that. You can head out and get busy with your work now.”
