Chapter 115 Head off a Danger
Queenie was present at the new product launch event too. She had already bribed a few reporters to ask Nicole
some direct questions later, so her lips curled up into a confident smile.
She had deliberately leaked the designs after the factory started work, just to ensure Nicole would have no way out.
That fool, Henry, had taken the money she gave and fled. Even if they were to find out who did this, only Henry
would be blamed.
Moreover, Henry was Nicole’s first boyfriend. If they were to say that this had nothing to do with Nicole, who would
believe it?
Now, she was just waiting to watch the excitement and see how Nicole would find her way out this time.
The new product launch event started as scheduled. As the ready-to-wear clothing had yet to be released, they

When the host finished speaking, it was time for the reporters to ask questions.
All of the reporters who came this time only mentioned the leaked design, and they asked questions without any
reservations.
“Miss Lisa, may I ask if the design posted on the Internet some time ago is real?”
Before the reporter finished asking, the reporter next to them grabbed the microphone and said sharply, “Miss Lisa,
Gardner Apparel has been operating for 7 years. When you weren’t there, there had never been the problem of
designs being leaked. Why is it that this problem occurred as soon as you showed up?”
This question instantly silenced the noisy scene.
After all, even if the reporters present didn’t want to show Nicole any regard, they had to respect the Gardner
Corporation and F&M Apparel, so they didn’t expect someone to ask such a direct question.
However, they didn’t stop it either. They weren’t the ones who asked the question anyway. When the breaking news
was revealed, they could take advantage of the free publicity too.
Even though such a direct question had been thrown Nicole’s way, the smile on her face never ceased. She crossed
her hands in front of the table, then swept her gaze over the crowd. Sure enough, she saw Queenie in a corner.
After thinking about it, she reckoned that only this idiot could perform such a brainless thing.
Nicole spoke up, not denying the claim. “It’s true that the Gardner Corporation had never had any designs leaked
before. Similarly, F&M Apparel had never encountered this problem either, so this only shows that someone is
targeting the cooperation between the Gardner Corporation and F&M Apparel!”
After Nicole answered the question, there was an uproar among the audience, followed by questions from the
reporters.
“Miss Lisa, are you saying that someone is specifically targeting the cooperation between both companies?”
“Miss Lisa, did you unintentionally admit that the leaked designs are indeed the new summer line that the Gardner
Corporation is going to launch?”
Nicole simply smiled, but didn’t answer. When the organizing team noticed that it was getting a little out of control,
the host hurriedly stepped forward to mediate the situation. “If anyone has any questions, please take turns asking
them.”
Seeing that the audience had slightly calmed down, Nicole picked up the microphone and gave a brief explanation.
“Back then, I met an acquaintance in the Gardner Corporation. He was someone I got to know during my school
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdays. After we had a few conversations, he came to my office time and time again. Not long after, some of my
scrapped designs was leaked onto the Internet, and it was claimed to be the Gardner Corporation’s new product.”
Nicole had a small smile on her face, and although she spoke in a gentle manner, there was a sense of dignity
about her.
“I installed surveillance cameras in my office and have confirmed that he stole them. Although the leaked designs
aren’t the Gardner Corporation’s new products, this is very shameful behavior. The Gardner Corporation and F&M
Apparel will work together to investigate the matter.”
Nicole was speaking in neither a humble nor overbearing manner. Joanna already knew the truth beforehand, so
she wasn’t surprised.
But, that wasn’t the case for Queenie. Originally, she thought that even if she couldn’t bring down Nicole this time,
she could at least defame her. She didn’t expect that Nicole would so easily resolve the things she had worked so
hard to plan.
She looked up at the stage, and Nicole happened to look over too. There was a hint of amusement in her eyes, as if
she was mocking her!
