Right Person, Wrong Time Chapter 220

Chapter 220 Nicole Is Also Making It

Joanna’s expression finally softened. Indeed, it was true—at least she was the one who would design the dress

Wendy would wear to the celebration of her 18th birthday.





The media would be there in order to kiss up to the Gardners when the time came. Hence, Joanna was sure that

the clothes she designed would become a trending topic as well!

The look on her face only slightly brightened when she thought about this.





Letting out a soft laugh, she turned to Lexi, and only said, “I probably don’t look too well now because these days

have been exhausting for me.”

Lexi immediately understood that Joanna didn’t want her to think that she was angry about Nicole being the

founder of ‘Anna’. “That is right, Miss Joanna.” She nodded her head and continued, “You must be worn out from

designing Miss Gardner’s dress day in and day out.”

Hearing that, Joanna slowly replied, “I am alright. It is something I should do. After all, it is Wendy’s coming-of-age

ceremony. Of course it will have to be grand.”

“Mrs. and Miss Gardner must really like you for them to let you handle the dress for such a ceremonious event,”

Lexi added.

Joanna didn’t say anything else after that. Truth was, she knew why Anna and Wendy chose her as Wendy’s

designer.



If they were only comparing the designs… Even Joanna was aware that she could never win against the one that

Nicole drew.

Lexi was an observant person who read moods well. Sensing Joanna’s reluctance to continue this topic, she swiftly

brought up something else.

“Miss Joanna, even though Mrs. and Miss Gardner have chosen your design, I have noticed that Lisa has been

making clothes these days.”

It was now Joanna’s turn to be surprised. “She is making clothes as well?” she asked to make sure. “Are you sure it

is the one she designed for Wendy?”

“I am quite sure it is. I peeked into Lisa’s office one time when her door was open, and I saw her making it in her

office,” Lexi said.

A flash of doubt appeared in Joanna’s eyes then. Just what is Nicole up to?



After thinking about it for a while, she nodded and commented, “It is probably for Wendy to wear at some other

event. Let’s not worry about that. You can head out and get busy with your work now.”

Lexi let out a hum and proceeded to leave the room.

Joanna might look nonchalant on the surface but as soon as Lexi left, she immediately made a call to Queenie.

Queenie, who had never been the one to be contacted between the two, couldn’t help but feel strange when she

received the call.

“Director Schmidt, to what do I owe the pleasure of getting your call?”



Hearing the humor from the other end of the call, Joanna unhesitantly sputtered, “Nicole is also making Wendy’s

birthday dress now.”

“What are you trying to say, Director Schmidt?” Queenie didn’t understand where their conversation was going.

“I am worried that Mrs. Gardner and Wendy have had a change of mind. Mrs. Gardner did ask Nicole to stay back

when I left.” Joanna voiced her concern.

“What are you worried about when we have the jewelry from Triton Studio? Even if Wendy wants Nicole’s dress,

Mrs. Gardner is someone who takes the overall situation into consideration. She will definitely not agree to it.”

Queenie was confident in the words she said. She was determined to let Nicole have a taste of failure!

“I still can’t help being worried. It can’t show my face now. Queenie, come over to the Gardner Corporation and find

out the reason Nicole is designing the dress,” Joanna requested as she squinted.

She couldn’t afford to gamble on possibilities now. She had to have a definite answer. There shouldn’t be any flaw in

her plan.

Queenie couldn’t help laughing when she heard Joanna’s words. “This is not like you, Director Schmidt. What is the

matter? Weren’t you uncomfortable working with me before?”

Joanna managed to keep her temper at bay even after hearing Queenie’s sarcasm. The most important thing now

was that nothing should go wrong during Wendy’s 18th birthday’s banquet.

“We can cooperate on this.”

“Oh? And what good does this bring me?” Queenie asked. She was clever enough to let someone else use her.

“You don’t like Nicole, and you want to see her making a fool out of herself. I, on the other hand, want to emerge as

the victor during the banquet.” She slowly added, “We are both in the same boat.”
