Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 43 Keeping Her Poise

Wearing a half-smile on her face, Nicole looked impassively at the woman before her, whose face had turned crimson with embarrassment. Instead of blowing up or doing anything, she merely stood up and ran her eyes over everyone in the office. “We’ll probably be working together for several months after this. I’ll be working with everyone here at Gardner Corporation, so if you have any problems, just talk them out. I don’t like talking behind anyone’s back.” Her gaze swept over everyone before falling upon Sabrina’s face. “If you hear any rumors about me, you’re welcome to go to me directly about them. After all, we’ll be working together, so I don’t want any misunderstanding between us.”

Nicole’s words were very well-said. Instead of lashing out at Sabrina, she dealt with the situation by being modest, but such a clever move put Sabrina on the spot. As a result, Sabrina had made a spectacle of herself in the Design Department.

Nicole’s words were met with a positive response from everyone else in the Design Department. After all, the department’s focus would be on Nicole in the next few months.

With a faint smile on her face, Nicole then rose from her seat. The stern and forbidding air she had had about her just now vanished as she resumed her gentle demeanor. “I’ll be officially joining Gardner Corporation after the turn of the year. If you have any good ideas, feel free to share them with me so that we can discuss them together.”
