His Only Antidote by Shirley Owen

Chapter 125

Today was the deadline agreed upon with Dreams Bloom. Everyone in the company was looking forward to Nola’s design.

Nola hadn’t handed in another design plan yet. Didn’t she come up with a plan that met Miss Garcia’s requirements?

Everyone was whispering in the office. In their eyes, Nola was just an obscure intern assistant. During the interview, she said that she had designed independently, but no one took it seriously. It was normal to exaggerate experiences during an

interview.

After all, bragging wasn’t illegal. Completing the design independently did not mean that the design could satisfy the client. In terms of her previous design plan, which was about going back to basics, they all thought she was inexperienced.

But they did not know that, in Nola’s eyes, the so–called splendid ornaments were nothing more than extravagance piled on top of common things. Depending on their style, it might be better to stick the money directly on the wall as a wallpaper, which was more luxurious but tacky.

It was time for work soon. Nola usually came early, but she didn’t today.

Some people teased that Nola was probably scared and couldn’t make a design plan, so she resigned in desperation with self–knowledge. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing and humiliating for her to come here today.

Everyone burst into laughter. They were waiting to see Nola be embarrassed. Bertha thought the same as everybody else. She did not dare to undertake the task of design herself, but Nola had the courage to attempt it independently. It would prove to be a miserable end.

The end was confirmed today. She guessed that Claire might have been mistaken this time.

Nola arrived in the nick of time on purpose. Without thinking, she knew how she would be looked at by the company when they saw her today. She said nothing deliberately, clocked in on time, took her seat, and arranged her things as before.

At the morning meeting, Deborah would bring up the case of Dreams Bloom. It seemed these people couldn’t wait to see her embarrassment!

Since she was going to embarrass them, she had to make them embarrassed to death. Otherwise, it would be a waste of Nola’s energy to finish the design herself. Elf reminded her of the most suitable time to embarrass others.

It should be the moment when they were most complacent and happiest. Then, she could take action without hesitation and make them dumbfounded. It would be incredible.

Only when they were happiest, would it be the best time to destroy their sweet dreams.

So, Nola deliberately slowed down today.

She ought to have known nothing. She was an intern assistant who couldn’t have done a good job in designing. Soon, she would have been driven away by her boss because she couldn’t have completed the work assigned by her boss, and she wouldn’t even have passed the probation period.

Nola tried her best to act like a loser in the eyes of others, indifferently watching those who were laughing and gloating in secret. Her heart was cold.

The reality was so cruel, and she saw it clearly.

While Nola was pouring coffee, Bertha walked up to her at some point and said in a low voice, “Are you… are you still working on your previous design?”

Nola didn’t speak but looked at her.

“Although I don’t like you, we came into the company together. You have to learn to compromise at work. You can only have

a good life if you make Deborah happy. If you fight against her, she will not let you stay in Grayson Group.”

Seeing that Nola was not enlightened, Bertha left a few words before turning around and leaving.

Bertha always kept a distance from her but persuaded her from time to time. Her action just now reminded Nola of the hot coffee that day, and she couldn’t help looking at Claire’s office.
