Chapter 371 The Blame Game
“What are you talking about, Miss Nicole? I don’t quite understand.”
Nicole didn’t beat around the bush with Joanna either; she went straight to the point and said, “I conducted surgery
on Old Mr. Benedict during the past few days. The news has been circulating on the internet as well, saying that I’m
White’s apprentice. Director Schmidt, I don’t think you’re blind. You’ve seen the news, haven’t you?”
Joanna’s expression turned complicated upon hearing that and she touched her nose awkwardly. After a while, she
finally cleared her throat and responded, “Turns out you’re referring to this. Of course, I know about it. You’re going
viral on the internet now, and everyone is saying that you’re an expert doctor for saving Old Mr. Benedict from the
jaws of death. Indeed, you have my respect.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Olivia sent Nicole to the police station, it had gone viral on the internet as well. Joanna had actually prepared
to have a good laugh at Nicole at that time, but she didn’t expect Nicole to overturn the situation through the
revelation of her being White’s apprentice and getting to conduct Old Mr. Benedict’s surgery.

At that time, Joanna was even hoping that Old Mr. Benedict would end up dying on the hospital bed after receiving
treatment from a dabbler like Nicole. If that happened, the Gardners would definitely never forgive her.
Surprisingly, Nicole was lucky enough to have saved him successfully!
After hearing Joanna buttering her up, Nicole couldn’t resist laughing anymore. She looked at Joanna’s face with a
smile on her lips, and her gaze moved down slowly. “I wouldn’t do such a foolish thing if I were you, Director
Schmidt.”
When Joanna heard Nicole’s satire, the smile on her face froze for a little while before she reacted immediately and
pretended to not understand what she said. “What are you talking about, Miss Nicole? Did anything happen when
you were not around?”
When she noticed the woman’s pretentious behavior, Nicole continued to say with a smile, “Don’t tell me that you
don’t know what happened with Aimee International.”
Joanna just blinked and wore an innocent face before asking, “Hasn’t the contract with Aimee International been
signed already? Is there any problem with that?”
“There certainly is. The design sketch that we sent out was a plagiarized version. Moreover, it even plagiarized
Aimee International’s earlier sketch. Do you think it’s really a coincidence?” Nicole stared at Joanna and asked her
word-by-word.
Joanna’s mouth gaped as she wore a surprised expression and denied while saying, “That’s impossible. I remember
checking the sketch before sending it out. It can’t have been plagiarized.”
Nicole realized that Joanna was going to continue playing dumb, so she didn’t want to beat around the bush. She
took out the plagiarized sketch and showed the woman. “This sketch was released by Aimee International in its
early days. Although it’s quite uncommon, it can still be found on the internet. Now, Director Schmidt, don’t tell me
that you didn’t double-check before you accepted the sketch.”
Of course, Jonna had planned an escape plan after she did such a thing. She put on a faint smile and acted
shamelessly. “Of course I checked. I just didn’t think that it’d be plagiarism. When I handed the sketch to you, you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdidn’t realize it as well, right? Either way, you can’t blame everything on me, Miss Nicole.”
Kylie, who was on the side, chimed in and said, “You’re the one with incompetent supervisory skills, but now you’re
coming here to blame others for your mistake? Who gave you the courage to do so?”
“Joanna, I thought you’d be a smart person who knows what you’re doing, but it’s really out of my expectation that
you would even do such a foolish thing!” Nicole ignored Kylie completely and said in a cold voice while staring at
Joanna.
When Joanna heard that, her expression changed a little. It was obvious that she heard the cynicism in Nicole’s
words, so she replied while grinding her teeth, “Now is not the time to play the blaming game, Miss Nicole. Instead,
we should be dealing with Aimee International.”
At this moment, Nicole smiled before she burst out laughing.
