Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 220 Nicole Is Also Making It

Joanna’s expression finally softened. Indeed, it was true—at least she was the one who would design the dress Wendy would wear to the celebration of her 18th birthday.

The media would be there in order to kiss up to the Gardners when the time came. Hence, Joanna was sure that the clothes she designed would become a trending topic as well!

The look on her face only slightly brightened when she thought about this.

Letting out a soft laugh, she turned to Lexi, and only said, “I probably don’t look too well now because these days have been exhausting for me.”

Lexi immediately understood that Joanna didn’t want her to think that she was angry about Nicole being the founder of ‘Anna’. “That is right, Miss Joanna.” She nodded her head and continued, “You must be worn out from designing Miss Gardner’s dress day in and day out.”

Hearing that, Joanna slowly replied, “I am alright. It is something I should do. After all, it is Wendy’s coming-of-age ceremony. Of course it will have to be grand.”

“Mrs. and Miss Gardner must really like you for them to let you handle the dress for such a ceremonious event,” Lexi added.

Joanna didn’t say anything else after that. Truth was, she knew why Anna and Wendy chose her as Wendy’s designer.
