Chapter 137 Cooperation
Nicole tilted her head to look at her, then she took a few steps forward and whispered in her ear, “Do you think you can threaten me as you like? Queenie, you missed something.”
Queenie’s eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment. She didn’t understand what Nicole was talking about. Just as she was about to ask, Nicole had already left, and she could only watch her retreating back.
Immediately, panic rushed into Queenie’s heartt as she thought, What does she mean that I missed something?
She clenched her fists. She must not miss this perfect opportunity and must use this matter to completely suppress Nicole! She couldn’t go wrong at all!
With that in mind, she walked quickly to the Design Department. The reason why she came to the Gardner Corporation today was to discuss things with Joanna.
At the Design Department, Joanna looked at Queenie, who came over, not looking too happy, so she frowned and asked unkindly, “What do you need, Miss Anderson?”
Although she knew that Queenie was trying to bring Nicole down, she didn’t want to get involved. After all, the matter had not reached the last moment, so it was not certain who would be the final winner.
Queenie was leaning back on the chair, uttering slowly, “Now that Nicole has been accused of plagiarism, Director Schmidt, you are like a duck to water.”
Joanna pretended not to understand and said with a smile, “I’m afraid I am not exactly sure what you’re talking about.”
Queenie didn’t have time to beat around the bush with Joanna, so she snorted coldly. “All the evidence now points to Nicole. The court will declare a sentence at the end of the month, and Nicole will have to go to prison for at least a few years.”
“Oh?” Joanna raised her eyebrows, looked at Queenie, and said slowly, “That’s really a misfortune in the family.”
Queenie raised her chin and continued, “I know you don’t want to get involved, but you also have a share in the Henry Cooper matter. Even if you want to pull out now, it’s too late. Actually, you don’t need to do much. I only need you to make Mrs. Gardner dislike Nicole. Now that President Yates from F&M Apparel is abroad, as long as Colton doesn’t take action, Nicole will be done for!”
Joanna had no answer. She sat in her own seat with a half-smile on her face.
Queenie looked at her, narrowing her eyes slightly. “So? Director Schmidt, have you made up your mind?”
Joanna did not answer this question directly, but just pulled out a document from the side and said slowly, “I don’t really understand what you’re talking about, but I am going to go to Mrs. Gardner’s after I get off work later. Miss Gardner’s first birthday ceremony is around the corner, so I need to customize a dress for her. ”
Although Joanna didn’t answer directly, Queenie knew clearly that she also wanted to bring down Nicole, so she laughed. “I hope we have a great cooperation.”
Joanna still ignored her.
Queenie knew she wanted to keep her hands clean, but it didn’t matter since she could help anyway. Other than that, nothing else mattered.
…
When Nicole returned home, Whitney was playing with Hayden, and when she saw Nicole had come back, she asked, “How did it go with President Gardner?”
“He will resolve the matter regarding Henry,” Nicole said with a light smile.
Although she was confident about this matter, her nerves had been wound tight these days, and she simply felt exhausted.
Nicole sat on the sofa, relaxing slightly and letting herself sink into the sofa.
Hayden looked at his mother’s tired appearance and crawled over in distress. He put his hands on the corner of her brows and rubbed gently.
“Mommy, don’t work too hard. I feel bad for you.”
Hearing her son’s warm words, Nicole opened her eyes, took him into her arms, and reached out to rub his head a few times.
“It’s not hard for me at all. I just need to wait for this month to pass,” she said with a little smile on her face.
Hayden folded his body directly into Nicole’s arms, nodded, and said, “Well, if there is anything, you must tell me; I can help you!”
When Nicole saw Hayden’s serious appearance, she suddenly felt relieved and huffed a smile. “Sure thing, Mr. Bigshot!”
