Chapter 130 The Design Draft Is Not Yours
Whitney’s voice was probably a little loud that the people over there heard it, whereupon Daniella’s smiling face
instantly darkened.
Someone on the side who was probably trying to fawn over Daniella quickly stepped forward and scolded, “Who are
you? What nonsense are you talking about!?”
Whitney herself was also short-tempered, so she squinted her eyes and retorted, “I’m talking about the person who
said that Lisa plagiarized her. How shameless!”
When Nicole saw that the atmosphere was getting worse, she hurriedly reached out and interrupted, “Enough,
Whitney.”
Whitney closed her mouth after hearing Nicole’s dissuasion.

Then, Nicole took a step forward, and her gaze fell on Daniella.
She was in her early thirties, with a slightly chubby body, but she looked honest.
“Miss Zimmer, I have something to consult you. If you have the time, would it be convenient to grab a cup of
coffee?” Nicole asked with a smile.
A trace of panic flashed in Daniella’s eyes, but she quickly suppressed it and shook her head. “I don’t know you
guys, so it’s inconvenient for us to do that.”
Whitney stepped forward and sneered. “Ms. Zimmer, we are here to discuss the design draft with you.”
Daniella tugged at the palm of her hand. She pursed her lips tightly, but still shook her head stubbornly and said, “I
have nothing to talk to you about.”
Whitney saw that she was unwilling, so she slowly leaned over and said in a low voice, “Ms. Zimmer, you know
whether this design draft truly belongs to you.”
Her voice was not too loud. She lowered her voice and spoke in Daniella’s ear, then she took a few steps back and
said in a normal tone, “We’re just here to find out some things, so why won’t you spare us some time, Ms.
Zimmer?”
Seeing the looming smile on Whitney’s face, Daniella tightened her hands nervously and breathed quickly for a
while before she finally agreed through gritted teeth. “Okay.”
Nicole took Whitney and Daniella to a restaurant and even asked for a private booth.
After walking into the booth, Daniella looked at Nicole and asked two consecutive questions. “Who are you? Why do
you want to talk to me?”
Nicole took off her mask and looked at her with a smile on her face.
Seeing Nicole’s face, Daniella was obviously startled. She probably didn’t expect Nicole to approach her.
Immediately, she gulped nervously, and her eyes flashed while she whispered, “Lisa…”
“Yes, it’s me,” Nicole responded.
Once Daniella saw Nicole, her reaction became exaggerated. She stood up immediately and gritted her teeth. “I
will not withdraw the lawsuit!”
Hearing Daniella’s confident remarks, Nicole felt surprised as her eyes flickered, but she still remained calm. She
crossed her hands and said lightly, “Ms. Zimmer, you see, there’s no need to panic. I only want to talk to you.
Nothing else.”
“Like I said, I don’t have anything to talk to you about.” Daniella was inexplicably anxious and wanted to leave after
speaking, but she was stopped by Whitney as soon as she stepped out.

drawings—what do you actually think you can get out of this?”
Hearing Nicole’s words, Daniella turned around to look at her and said quickly, “Don’t slander me. This is my
design!”
Nicole hooked her lips into a smile, slowly stood up, and walked to Daniella.
“This design draft won the national design competition that year. If you’ve received this award, then why are you
merely a junior designer in Pinnacle now?”
Daniella’s eyes were a little dodgy as she faced Nicole’s pressing questions. She said hesitantly, “I… I didn’t have
time back then…”
Nicole couldn’t hold back and suddenly burst out laughing. “Didn’t have time? This prize was reserved for nearly
half a year; it seems you were really busy.”
“It’s none of your business whether I claim the award or not. But how is it right for you to copy my draft?” Daniella
was forced to ask directly.
“I just wonder whether this draft is really yours,” Nicole calmly said.
