Chapter 113 Calm and Composed

After the meeting, Nicole went up to Colton’s office.

Colton appeared calm, and he didn’t seem anxious because of the leaked design drafts. When he saw Nicole

coming in, there was a gentle smile on his face.

“You’re here. Would you like to try some coffee I recently bought?”

Nicole shook her head. “No, thanks.”

Dressed in a white suit, Colton had a tall figure and a handsome face, which made him look like a prince who had

walked out of a fairy tale.

 

 

“The matter this time is really as you predicted. The design drafts were leaked before our new product launch,”

Colton uttered slowly, his dark eyes gleaming.

“It’s just as well. Just think of it as a warm-up for the new product launch.” Nicole laughed.

Her office didn’t have surveillance cameras because it was newly renovated, but after the first time Henry came to

her office, she had secretly installed one in a hidden corner.

At that time, she wished that it was just her overthinking, but she didn’t expect… in the surveillance footage, she

actually saw Henry making a backup of her designs…

However, she didn’t expose him on the spot, but played dumb instead. She figured there must be someone else

manipulating him behind the scenes, so she couldn’t wait to find out who they were.

“Are you suspecting Joanna?” Colton suddenly asked.

 

 

Previously, after Joanna left the factory, Nicole made changes to the previous designs. Although the materials

required were the same, the styles were completely different.

“I don’t suspect her, but I’ll be more certain if one less person knows.”

Colton nodded, not having much to say about Nicole’s approach. This time, the public was closely monitoring the

cooperation between the Gardner Corporation and F&M Apparel, so there could be no mistakes.

The person who leaked the design must be watching the show. They didn’t need to spend any money for the public

to cause an uproar for them.

There was a smile on Colton’s face. He quite admired Nicole’s style of doing things straightforwardly.

“After this, if there’s anything you need help with, just come find me.”

At some point, Henry quit his job, and he was nowhere to be found.

The people in the Design Department were all ready to see Nicole humiliated. Even if she could find out who leaked

the design within three days, she wouldn’t make it in time for the new product launch event.

However, what they found strange was that on the last day of the deadline, Nicole went to work as usual, appearing

calm and composed, as if the matter had no effect on her at all.

Joanna couldn’t bear it anymore as it had been three days, so she asked outright, “Miss Lisa, have you found the

culprit who you claimed leaked the design?”

As Nicole took in the menacing figure in front of her, a small smile tugged at the corners of her lips. Sitting on the

sofa, she picked up the pot with her fingers and poured a glass of water.

“Director Schmidt, come and have a sip of iced coffee to calm down. Otherwise, being angry will make you prone to

acne.”

Joanna frowned when she heard Nicole’s nonchalant voice, and she said sharply, “Miss Lisa, I’m not joking. As the

Chief Designer of F&M Apparel, do you not know the seriousness of this matter?”

When she saw how unperturbed Nicole was, her tone became more solemn.

“It’s a taboo for a company to have their design leaked before it’s launched!”

Nicole quietly listened to her, then took small sips of coffee from the cup in her hands. Putting down the cup, she

said slowly, “I know. So now, even if we know who leaked it, it’s useless.”

Joanna narrowed her eyes, unable to understand Nicole. She’s obviously in deep trouble, but why is she still so

calm?

Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Nicole continued, “Tomorrow will be the day for the new product launch, and most

of the clothes in the factory have been made. What we have to do now is to promote the new products well and

ensure this launch gets the public’s attention.”

When Joanna saw how calm Nicole was, she couldn’t help but say sarcastically, “We don’t have to worry about the

attention. The leaked design drafts gave our launching event enough attention before it started.”
