    Chapter 325 Contract Termination


    Nicole smiled and nodded before replying to them. “It went really well,” she said. Kylie and Joanna


    were stunned to hear this. Did she say that it went well?


    They thought that they had managed to create the impression that they didn’t like Nicole when theyst


    spoke to Sarah. It doesn’t make sense! Nicole tugged her lips into azy smirk when she saw the looks


    of surprise on the two women’s faces.


    “I hired Alice Murphy as the ambassador. How does that sound to you guys?” Nicole asked. Joanna


    froze when she heard that Nicole had hired Alice as the ambassador. Alice and Sarah were on


    completely different levels—Alice was a celebrity who had won all sorts of acting awards.


    Joanna frowned as she spoke. “Miss Lisa, I know you hope to promote the brand to the locals, and


    Alice is certainly a popr individual. However, her rates are extremely high, so she’ll definitely exceed


    our budget. I believe Sarah would be a better option.”


    “Sarah’s attitude is bad. I don’t want her to tarnish the name of my brand,” Nicole didn’t bother to


    sugarcoat her words even when she saw the sincere gaze in Joanna’s eyes.


    Joanna might not have expected Nicole to be so biased against Sarah, so she froze for a moment


    before speaking. “Are you going to make your decision based on your personal opinion? You’ve signed


    a contract, anyway. We’d have to pay if we don’t use Sarah.”


    Nicole was aware of that, but she also knew that there was a line in the contract stating that the


    contract could be terminated if the artist were to engage in any form of misconduct.


    The artist would even have to pay thepany double the amount of money. “So what? One way or


    another, I can’t allow Sarah to be the ambassador for Ann.”


    Joanna’s gaze darkened when she saw how stern Nicole was. If Nicole insists on this, the higher-ups in


    the Gardner Corporation might investigate this matter and get me to take responsibility for it.


    Hence, Joanna pretended to speak in a nice tone. “Miss Lisa, why don’t youpromise this time?


    Thepany isn’t just going to pay for no reason, you know.”


    Kylie couldn’t bear to listen to the conversation any longer, so she tugged on Joanna’s hand. “Just


    ignore her. If anything happens, she can bear the consequences on her own.”


    Kylie had been thinking of ways to teach Nicole a lesson, and thetter so happened to cause this


    trouble. If Nicole insisted on terminating the contract with Sarah, the higher-ups in the Gardner


    Corporation were definitely going to be displeased about it.


    Nicole tugged her lips into a smile. “I want you to prepare the same contract for Alice. I’ll go over to sign


    the contract with her in a few days’ time.”


    Joanna seemed troubled at first, but she eventually spoke in a dejected tone. “I guess I shouldn’t reject


    your decision since you’re so firm about it. However, I’ll have you know that the Design Department


    isn’t responsible for what happens in the future.”


    Joanna had intentionally raised her voice to make sure that everyone in the room could hear it. Most of


    the people there were afraid of the authorities, so they didn’t want to get involved when they heard that


    Joanna wanted to go against the rules.


    Naturally, no one wanted to make a copy of the contract. “Fine. I can do it on my own.” Nicole red at


    Joanna for a long while before she spoke.


    Joanna scoffed as she thought to herself, Nicole is really too full of herself. She’s just the founder of a


    tiny brand. I can’t believe she’s so cocky! I’d like to see what the higher-ups say after she signs a


    contract with Alice.


    “Fine. You were the one who created Ann, so you have full authority over it.” Joanna smiled. Kylie


    seemed just as eager to support Nicole’s decision.


    “I hope you don’t regret this. You’re sounding really arrogant now, but you better don’t go crying and


    begging Sarah not to terminate the contract after this!”


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Nicole narrowed her eyes and stared at Kylie while smiling. “Who do you think you are? Does the


    Gardner Corporation need an outsider like you toment on their marketing strategies?”


    “How dare you!” Kylie’s expression turned dark. She had just wanted to gloat at Nicole, but she hadn’t


    expected Nicole to attack her in return.
