Queenie couldn’t deny that Joanna’s words weren’t wrong in the least.
“Fine. I will just treat this as a means to become your friend, Director Schmidt.” Queenie swiftly hung up
after finishing her words.
When afternoon came, Queenie arrived at the Gardner Corporation after she had packed up. With
graceful steps, she first headed to Joanna’s office.
As she was helping Joanna this time, Joanna actually held back on being contemptuous toward her.
Queenie proceeded to sit on the sofa. She was wearing a bodycon dress today that hugged the curves
of her voluptuous body. The slits on the side of her legs were near the base of her thighs, and it gave
her a flirtatious look. The pair of high heels she had on, too, only made her look taller than she was.
She raised her eyes and glanced lazily at the person in front of her. “How rare of you to not complain
about me now that I am here, Director Schmidt.”
Joanna didn’t pay attention to Queenie’s goading tone of voice. Instead, she stayed in her seat behind
the desk as she looked over and stated, “Nicole is making clothes in her office. I want to know what she
is up to.”
Queenie smiled and let out a laugh then. “Joanna Schmidt, what are you being so cautious about?
What else do you have to worry about when Mrs. Gardner has already said yes to you?”
Pushing her chair back, Joanna stood up and demanded, “I can’t allow even one minor flaw in the
things that I want to do!”
Seeing how serious she was, Queenie stopped joking around as she stood up as well.
“Do you want to come with me and check on what Nicole is doing?”
Joanna hesitated for a while after hearing Queenie’s suggestion. She initially only wanted Queenie to
come forward. After all, she didn’t have the best reputation herself to not raise a flag if she were to do it
herself.
Queenie looked at her hesitating, and she raised her chin with a proud look on her face. “Director
Schmidt? Could it be that you want to get things done without dirtying your own hands and I am your
tool to achieving your goals?”
The question made Joanna sigh. “Let’s go together, then.”
They proceeded to head to Nicole’s office after their conversation.
As soon as they opened the door, they saw Nicole sewing clothes on a model. They could tell from the
outline of the garment that it was beautiful.
Nicole, who heard the sound of the door being opened, looked up slightly to see Joanna and Queenie
standing there.
A curious glint flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth twitched as she exclaimed with a
smile. “Wow! When did you get involved with her, Director Schmidt?”
Joanna did not tell the truth after hearing the mockery from Nicole. “I just happened to see Miss
Queenie when I came over.”
Naturally, Nicole didn’t believe her words. She thought that the duo must have something up their
sleeves for them to huddle together. She swiftly stopped what she was doing, and placed her needle
aside.
“If that is the case, is there something I can help you with, Director Schmidt and Miss Queenie?”
Listening to Nicole’s sarcastic words, Queenie took a step forward and looked directly past her to the
dress. Her eyes seemed to brighten when she laughed, “Oh—sis! Mrs. Gardner and Wendy have
already appointed Director Schmidt to design Wendy’s party dress for her 18th birthday. What are you
still here aimlessly busying yourself for?”
“I am bored and I wanted to make the dress. Is there a problem with that?” Nicole replied casually.
Queenie’s tone turned sharp all of a sudden. “Sis, are you trying to do something underhanded
because you aren’t willing to admit your defeat to Director Schmidt?”
“Underhanded?” As if she had just heard the joke of the century, Nicole sneered, her face full of
contempt. “Don’t try to throw dirt on my name. Don’t tell me the two of you don’t know why Wendy
chose Director Schmidt’s design.”
Joanna’s face immediately fell. She knew that Nicole was ridiculing her using unfair means herself.
She lightly clenched her fists and barely managed to not lose her temper. She only said firmly, “It really
is because of Miss Queenie. I didn’t expect such a coincidence.”
