Chapter 307 Chase Her Out

Nicole refused to allow someone else to step on her that way. Kylie had been below Nicole ever since she kicked off her career in F&M Apparel, so how could Nicole allow Kylie to show off in front of her face now? Nicole narrowed her eyes as she smiled. “That’s true. Perhaps some company secrets might be leaked now that Kylie’s here.”

Kylie’s expression changed immediately. “What are you trying to say?!” She glared at Nicole angrily.

“What else do you think I’m trying to say? Don’t you know what you did in the past?” Nicole said in an amused tone. There had been a breach of confidentiality in F&M Apparel in the past, but it wasn’t related to the designs made. Instead, it was associated with the sum of the amount that had been offered for some partnership. The blame had gone to Kylie back then, but she managed to get rid of the controversy after she slept with some CEO.

“Stop talking nonsense, Nicole. Are you trying to frame me now that I’m the head designer of F&M Apparel?” Kylie hastily denied her involvement. However, the guilt in her voice was evident as she spoke in a higher pitch. Nicole responded with a lazy smirk when she saw how self-conscious Kylie looked. She knew the sort of person that Kylie was.

“Well, I guess you’ll have to sit tight in this position as the head designer. You’d need to watch out and ensure you don’t fall off and hurt yourself. ”

Kylie’s face turned pale with fury as she listened to Nicole’s sarcastic comments. However, it was true that she had been caught up in a tricky situation in the past, so she was reluctant to say much about it. Therefore, she kept her mouth shut as a tense expression formed on her face.

Nicole handed a cardboard box over to Whitney as she made eye contact with Jessica, who looked like she had something to say. Nicole used her eyes to tell Jessica not to come over before she ledNôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Whitney out of the room. Once Nicole left, Joanna began introducing everyone to Kylie. Kylie was the new head designer of F&M Apparel, so everyone naturally showed her the respect that she wanted. But after the scene earlier, anyone with common sense could tell that Kylie and Nicole didn’t have a good relationship. So, to please Kylie, all of them started complimenting her.

“It’s great that you’re here, Kylie. Lisa wasn’t friendly at all—she chased off some of our staff members when she first came in. We felt so uneasy at work back then,” one said.

“That’s right. We’re so glad to have you here, Kylie. At least we wouldn’t have to be worried about triggering someone and being fired for that,” another one said.

Kylie was pleased to hear all these comments that put Nicole down, and she happily responded to them. “Don’t worry; I’m not as temperamental as her. As long as everyone does their part, I’m sure things will go smoothly.”

Even though the staff members had thought that Kylie was hard to get along with after witnessing her encounter with Nicole, they changed their minds once they spoke to her. They figured that it’d be easy to please the new head designer of F&M Apparel—all they had to do was insult Nicole. “Please contact the logistics department and get them to change everything in the office to brand new items. I don’t want to use something that others have used!” Kylie ordered with a look of disgust on her face.

One of the more alert staff members nodded once she heard Kylie’s orders. Then, she turned around to call someone from the logistics department. Meanwhile, Whitney followed Nicole out of the design department, and she questioned Nicole when she saw the calm look on Nicole’s face. “How did you hold it all in, Nicole? Don’t you feel angry at all?” she asked.

Nicole halted her footsteps and glanced at Whitney before spreading her lips into a smile. “Whitney, you wouldn’t bite a dog back if it bit you, right?” A smile surfaced on Whitney’s face when she understood what Nicole meant.

“I understand your logic, but I would definitely hit the dog with a stick if it bit me. I wouldn’t allow someone to bully me!” Whitney exclaimed.

Nicole couldn’t help but laugh when she heard the other woman’s words. She knew that what Kylie mentioned must have triggered Whitney earlier.
