Chapter 108 Rip Open Each Other’s Wounds
Closing the door behind herself after going out, Joanna looked a little displeased as her face fell. Suppressing her
emotions, she returned to her own office and growled in a low voice after shutting the door, “Damn Nicole
Anderson!”
In the previous years, Wendy would always come looking for her whenever she wanted to attend any important
event, and because of this connection between them, their relationship had always been close. Furthermore,
Wendy grew up under the tender care of the Gardner Family and wasn’t scheming at all. Basically, she would
believe anything that she was told.
Step by step, Joanna had set up good relationships with the people around Colton, but she didn’t imagine that
Nicole had snatched Wendy to her side in a mere few days.

While she was abroad, she had heard the news that Nicole would be designing the graduation dress for Wendy, but
she didn’t pay too much attention to it and thought that Wendy had no other choice but to look for Nicole because
she wasn’t in the country. However, Wendy was now even asking Nicole to design the dress for her first adult
birthday party.
The Gardner Family was considered one of the best and most influential companies globally, and as the youngest
child of the Gardner Family, Wendy’s first adult birthday party would definitely be very spectacular.
Unfortunately, this opportunity was now wrenched out of her hands by Nicole.
Trembling from the anger, Joanna felt helpless because Wendy had always done what she wanted, and it would be
difficult to change anything she had set her mind on.
After all her achievements in the Gardner Corporation for seven years, it couldn’t be compared to an outsider who
was here for barely a month!
No matter if it was Colton or Wendy, Joanna had spent seven years on them, but Nicole had managed to bewitch
them in a few days’ time!
It’s not fair! This is unacceptable!
Just as her fury was boiling, a soft chuckle echoed from behind her, followed by a soft, hypocritic voice. “Director
Schmidt, from the looks of it, it seems like you’re angry.”
Hearing that there was someone else, Joanna hurriedly recollected herself and spun her head around, only to see
that Queenie had appeared in her office without her noticing.
Raising her eyebrows, she cast an icy stare at her. “Miss Anderson, don’t you know that you should knock before
entering?”
From the bottom of her heart, Joanna utterly looked down on Queenie because she was a woman who relied on her
body to get to higher positions, after all. However, she decided to set aside her contempt for her on the surface.
“Based on what I know, the dress Nicole designed for Wendy turned out to be a big hit,” Queenie said slowly and
giggled as she took a seat, ignoring Joanna’s attitude.
On the other hand, there was not a trace of anger on Joanna’s face, and she smirked. “I heard about it. It’s not

The nonchalant look on Joanna’s face made Queenie burst out in laughter, and she laughed for a while with her
hand over her mouth as Joanna’s face turned sullen amidst her laughter.
Narrowing her eyes, Joanna sounded a little aloof as she said, “Queenie, what do you mean by this?”
Hearing her question, Queenie finally stopped laughing, but the edges of her lips remained upturned. “I’m so sorry.”
Waving her hand, she apologized, but she didn’t sound apologetic at all. “I just thought that you look funny when
you’re angry but could only bear with it.”
With her narrowed eyes, Joanna watched as Queenie mocked her, but she didn’t blow her top and simply took it
lightly.
“I can’t be compared to you, Miss Anderson, who can still come out of the house brazenly even after news came
out that you were having an affair with the young master of the Mann Family.”
Even though Colton had suppressed this news in the media, the rumor had already spread out within the industry.
The expression on Queenie’s face changed, and the smile disappeared from her face. With gloomy eyes, she
gritted her teeth and hissed, “Director Schmidt, our common enemy now is Nicole, so there’s no reason for us to
rip open each other’s wounds here.”
