Nicole asked herself the same question countless times throughout the afternoon, but she still didn’t
have an answer. Finally, Whitney told Nicole that Sarah had agreed to meet in the office sometime in
the afternoon. At 3.00PM, Nicoleposed herself and told Whitney to tidy the office and make some
tea.
However, no one arrived even at 3.30PM. Finally, they received a call that told them that Sarah’s
schedule had been dyed. They suggested meeting at a high-end restaurant at 4.00PM.
Nicole only had 30 minutes to spare—she would leave if no one showed up by then. Whitney was
fuming—she had nearly protested when Nicole held her hand up to stop Whitney.
“Something might have happened,” Nicole saidposedly. Whitney pouted before she started
grumbling. “You think of her too highly, Nicole.
I bet this woman is just trying to make herself seem busy. Couldn’t she inform us earlier? She’s already
more than 30 minuteste—how dare she call us and tell us that she has no time!”
Nicole chuckled. From what I remember, Sarah is a really warm and gentle woman. I don’t think she
would do that. “Why don’t we go ahead and take a look first?
It’s not far, anyway.” Nicole gathered her items and prepared to head out. Even though Whitney was
still annoyed, she had no choice but to follow Nicole.
They sped over to the restaurant that Sarah had suggested. She was a celebrity, so she had booked a
whole private room for themselves. Nicole asked the concierge to lead them to the appointed room
once they entered the establishment. Once they walked in, they saw three women sitting inside.
Two of the women were dressed in bright colors and bold outfits. They were chatting andughing with
one another. The other woman was dressed more casually and sat in a corner with her head hung low.
Nicole immediately recognized Sarah. She looked somewhat different from when Nicole first met her a
few years ago. Her features were sharp, and she looked better than before. The woman beside her
seemed really familiar, but Nicole couldn’t recall where she had seen her.
“It’s been a while, Sarah,” Nicole uttered while taking a step forward.
The conversation between the two people came to a halt when Nicole entered the room. They turned to
gaze at Nicole, and the woman sitting beside Sarah frowned when she saw Nicole. “Did you just call
Sarah by her first name? Do you know her, Sarah?”
Sarah gazed at Nicole and scanned her from head to toe. “No,” she uttered while raising an eyebrow.
The other woman burst out inughter. “So, you guys don’t know each other, huh? This old-school way
of starting a conversation by acting friendly is so outdated,” the woman said.
Nicole no longer felt any shame as she had been in this line of business for a long time. So, she simply
smirked in response to their sarcastic remarks. “I’m Nicole. You can call me Lisa as well.”
“Oh, you’re Nicole. I remember now. You’re that poordy who used to be in my ss!” The woman
looked up when she recalled who Nicole was. “Tsk. You’ve changed quite a bit,” the other woman
commented.
Nicole stared at Sarah for a long time before she recalled how Sarah used to be one of the wealthiest
girls in ss. If I remember correctly, I believe her name is Yvonne Harris. Unfortunately, she changed
too much for me to recognize her, Nicole thought.
I’m here to talk to Sarah about Ann’s ambassadorship.” Nicole smiled before getting into the main topic.
Sarah, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up after a while. “I remember that F&M
Apparel made an announcement about terminating their agreement with you,” shemented.
Nicole didn’t understand why Sarah was talking about this, but she simply nodded and agreed. “Yeah.
I’m no longer the head designer of F&M Apparel,” she exined.
