Chapter 131 It’s Mine!
Daniella looked at Nicole in front of her and tried her best to keep her composure. She clenched her hand and said, “This is my design draft. You have plagiarized my design draft, but you still won’t admit it!”
When Nicole saw her stubborn appearance, she smiled and asked bluntly, “How much benefit did Queenie Anderson give you?”
Upon the mention of Queenie, Daniella’s heart obviously tightened. She didn’t expect Nicole to know that Queenie was the one that reached out to her.
But as Queenie said, no one stood out to claim this design draft anyway. After she claimed ownership of this design draft, her status and reputation would rise, and by then, she would be more than just a junior designer.
Besides, Queenie had helped her fix all the details of the design. As long as she claimed this design as her own, no one would be the wiser.
What was more, Queenie promised her that she would give her a large sum of money after this success—she needed this money!
“What are you talking about? What Queenie?” Daniella pretended not to know.
Nicole chuckled lightly and looked at the person in front of her who was either bought over by Queenie or dazzled by fame and fortune.
“You know it in your own heart whether this design draft is yours. It’s still not too late to stop it now. Otherwise, when the truth comes out, you will lose everything.”
Daniella listened to Nicole’s words and sneered in her heart. She’s only saying this because she just wants me to withdraw the lawsuit. Immediately, she raised her head, looked at Nicole, and said, “This design draft is mine. You’re only saying this because you want me to withdraw the lawsuit. You’re really despicable!”
“Hey, what are you talking about? Miss Nicole is only saying this for your own good. This design draft is clearly—”
Whitney was unconvinced and wanted to continue but was interrupted by Nicole.
“Whitney,” Nicole whispered.
Whitney stopped talking, snorted coldly, and left it at that.
Nicole stared at Daniella for a while before asking, “Are you really not going to withdraw the lawsuit?”
Daniella looked at Nicole and straightened her back as an act of confidence. “What? Could it be that you’re threatening me?”
Nicole hooked her lips and said lazily, “This is not a threat; it’s just a piece of advice. If you take things that are not yours, you will be punished by the heavens.”
Daniella narrowed her eyes and said with a sneer, “I will return this sentence to you as it is.”
Nicole looked at the person in front of her and shook her head, feeling that she was really a person who was dazzled by her interests. Since Daniella was stubborn, Nicole felt she didn’t need to be merciful to her any longer.
“Since you said that, I have nothing to refute.” Nicole stood up. “Take care, then.”
Hearing what Nicole said, Daniella looked at her without panicking at all, but for some reason, she felt inexplicably unconfident in her heart.
However, when she thought of her bright future after this incident was over, she still endured it and said firmly, “This is my design draft, and no matter how you threaten me, I will not compromise!”
Whitney looked at her arrogant appearance and couldn’t help but want to yell at her again, but Nicole stopped her.
Nicole shook her head and motioned her to stay still with her eyes.
Soon after that, Daniella went out directly when she saw that they were not blocking her.
After Daniella left, Whitney sat down in a dissatisfied manner and said, “Nicole, will you look at her? I really want to slap her in the face.”
Nicole looked at Whitney, who was standing up for herself, and chuckled with the corners of her lips hooked up. “She is just a pawn, and what we have to do now is to find out the person behind her and bring them down.”
“Then do you already have a solution?” Whitney came over and asked.
“The prouder they are, the more they’ll slip up. We can wait for a while longer, and when they think they’ve made it, we will completely overwhelm them then,” Nicole said lightly.
Nicole had never been a pushover. After all, she would not offend anyone if they didn’t offend her first! But if someone did offend her, then she would definitely repay it back tenfold or even a hundredfold!
