Chapter 112 Leaked Design Drafts

As people would say, those who were unaccountably solicitous must be hiding evil intentions. Nicole always believed that if she didn’t have anything to be taken advantage of, Henry wouldn’t be so eager to approach her.

“Well, if he comes to the Design Department again in the future, don’t let him in.” Nicole nodded as she spoke.

She had mentioned it to Henry once or twice before, and she had politely asked him not to come to the office again. However, Henry treated it as if he didn’t hear it, or as if he didn’t understand it, and he came again and again.

Nicole had to make this clear today to prevent him from coming repeatedly.

“Okay, got it,” Scarlett responded happily.

…

The weather in late March had gradually warmed up, and the clothes in the factory had gone into production. After Nicole discussed with Colton, they decided to announce the new product launch in early April to warm up the heat of Labor Day.

But, a few days before the product launch event, the design drafts were suddenly leaked on the Internet.

The Design Department held a meeting overnight to discuss what to do about this.

In the conference hall, there was a touch of tranquility in the air. Upon listening carefully, there was only the sound of breathing.

“Let’s all think about how to solve this matter.” Joanna took the lead and spoke.

“We’ve never experienced having our design drafts leaked before.” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

“Yes, the Design Department has never allowed outsiders to come in before. After so many years, there has never been a leak of the design draft.”

There was a lot of discussion, but all of their speculations pointed at Nicole.

After all, in the past few days, there had been an outsider in Nicole’s office.

Although there was no expression on Joanna’s face, she felt unusually happy. She didn’t expect Queenie to act so quickly!

The leakage of the design draft would definitely cause Gardner Corporation some losses. They would like to see what Nicole would do to deal with this.

“Miss Lisa, although I shouldn’t question you, this new product is the painstaking effort of the entire Design Department. You should explain why a person from the Logistics Department enters the Design Department so frequently.”

Nicole knew that Joanna was talking about Henry, so she didn’t didn’t shy away but replied instead, “I got to know him through your introduction, Director Schmidt.”

Joanna’s expression changed. Narrowing her eyes, she said coldly, “Miss Lisa, you are the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel after all. You can’t defame people like this.”

Nicole didn’t hesitate at all as she stared straight at Joanna, then she smiled and said, “In order to prevent outsiders from entering, the people from the Design Department are required to open the door by swiping our staff cards, or it can only be accessed by someone above the manager level.”

She fixed her gaze on Joanna and continued, “Hence, I’m very curious: How could Henry, a measly employee from logistics, enter the Design Department?”

Joanna’s heart tightened when she was questioned by Nicole, but her face calmed down. After all, she didn’t get involved in this matter.

“Well, we’ll have to ask you this, Miss Lisa. After all, he always came to you.”

“I asked Scarlett to check the surveillance footage of the door and found that Henry swiped his card every time he came in. Besides the employees, the rest of the Design Department’s cards are with you, Director Schmidt,” Nicole shot back with a smile.

Joanna was taken aback. She suddenly remembered that Queenie had asked her for an access card a few days ago, saying that she had a way to deal with Nicole, but she didn’t expect Queenie to give the card to Henry!

But, in the current situation, she couldn’t admit it. “So what? Are you saying I gave it to him, Miss Lisa?”

“No, I’m just analyzing objectively, Director Schmidt. Don’t get too emotional,” Nicole said and smiled.

She scanned the crowd, then promised, “In three days, I’ll find out the person who leaked the design draft.”

“So what if you find out about it? The design drafts have already been leaked, and Gardner Corporation’s factory has also begun to make the clothes. Who should make up for this loss?” Joanna asked.

Nicole didn’t panic at all. She looked at Joanna, and the two of them just stared at each other. “Director Schmidt, things have to be solved step by step, so let’s take it one step at a time.”
