Chapter 284 Resignation
However, the leaders of F&M Apparel couldn’t believe that a day before they dismissed Nicole, they received a
letter of resignation from her!
In general, people in major positions like her would not be able to take up the same job for five years if they were to
resign. Of course, it would be a different story if they were fired.
Yet, here was Nicole, unexpectedly resigning from her job. Was it that she wasn’t ready to continue to develop in
the clothing industry?
Nevertheless, the answer was quickly revealed; Nicole’s contract was signed five years ago and had already
expired at the beginning of this year. Later, the renewal contract was drafted by Zachary, and this clause was not
marked on the contract.

In other words, her resignation would only result in the loss of a few months’ worth of compensation salary.
Zachary had already thought ahead about Nicole’s resignation and drafted this contract for her.
As the executive president of F&M Apparel, no one looked into the contract he drafted. Because of that, Nicole
could resign without taking any severe repercussions.
On the other end, the shareholders couldn’t bear the pressure from Benjamin for long. There was not much
difference between Nicole getting dismissed, or if she resigned anyway, so they agreed directly.
Zachary did not say anything as he signed the resignation approval.
‘Lisa left F&M Apparel.’
Nicole had deliberately hyped up the news; she acknowledged it immediately once the turmoil started.
Zachary had initially also wanted to leave F&M Apparel as F&M Apparel was nothing to him without her. So, there
was no need for him to continue staying there.
Despite that, he was stopped by Nicole.
“You enjoy being in this industry. There’s no need for you to give it up for anyone. Maybe I can cooperate with F&M
Apparel personally in the future, and I’d have to rely on you more then.”
After he listened to her advice, he felt that what she said made sense. If he were to resign from F&M Apparel, he
would no longer be able to help her in the future.
As the news of Nicole’s resignation from F&M Apparel blew up, the news that was released before started to show
up as well.
Gardner Corporation and Pinnacle Group were fighting over Lisa’s work.
Everyone began to think that she had resigned because she was poached by the two companies.
Now, because of Ann’s great success, Nicole was still a star in the clothing industry, even without her title in F&M
Apparel.
The Pinnacle Group was buzzing with excitement after the news of Lisa’s departure, alongside all sorts of gossip,
was released on the internet. They were discussing the recruitment of Lisa as the Chief Designer of Pinnacle Group.
Naturally, this request was rejected by Olivia.
“Absolutely not! A woman with such a bad character can not be allowed to join the Pinnacle Group!”
Although the shareholders had long been dissatisfied with her strong opposition, Bradley Schumacher, Mason’s

Mason, who was usually quiet during board meetings, suddenly spoke up, “We know how high Lisa’s net worth is
right now. So, if you think it’s risky, I suggest that we use the Pinnacle Group’s spot to participate in the Golden
Brush Award as an offer to collaborate with Lisa once and see how the outcome will be.”
Olivia shot him an angry glare as soon as he spoke, sneered, and said sarcastically, “When did you get the rights to
speak here?!”
Despite her demeaning words, his expression remained indifferent, and he showed no signs of anger. Instead, he
smiled gently in the face of her arrogance and explained, “Although Lisa has resigned from F&M Apparel, she is still
working with Gardner Corporation. Gardner Apparel is getting increasingly more popular by the day. If Lisa
continues working with them, they will surpass Pinnacle Group within a year. So, I’m suggesting that we strive and
pull Lisa into the Pinnacle Group and allow her to be the Chief Designer of Pinnacle Group.”
Mason paused a moment before continuing, “But if President Gardner does not have his trust in Lisa, we can
recommend her to participate in the Golden Brush Award first. If Lisa successfully wins the award, it’s not too late
for us to hire her.”
