Chapter 42 Nicole Strikes Back

• With expressionless eyes and a barely perceptible smile on her face, Nicole looked completely different from the ferocious woman before her. "I'm Lisa, the woman you talked about who got her job by relying on men."
• As soon as she said that, silence instantly enveloped the noisy Design Department, so much so that even the sound of a paper dropping to the ground would sound unusually obtrusive. After all, everyone in the department had just been gossiping about Nicole right before her, especially Sabrina, whose expression instantly became very interesting to watch.
• Sabrina didn't expect Nicole to come to the Design Department at this hour. She was on close terms with Joanna, so she had only said those things about Lisa to lick Joanna's boots, but she never really intended to offend Lisa. After all, more friends meant more opportunities, whereas more enemies would bring more obstacles to herself. She had only spoken of Lisa like that just now because she thought Lisa wasn't here. After all, as F&M Apparel's Chief Designer, Lisa's status was well-established, for F&M Apparel alone was directly capable of leading the country's fashion trend. If Sabrina had known that Lisa was here, she wouldn't have dared to slander her so recklessly.
