    Chapter 353 The Golden Brush Competition


    When Colton saw that his mother was assured, he nodded. “Okay, go and rest for now. After this, just


    cooperate with Nicole all you can.”


    After that, Nicolepared Benedict’s health condition and customized a surgery for him, and while


    she was busy with work, Whitney gave her a call. “Miss Nicole, should I send a copy of the design


    drafts for the coboration with Aimee International?”


    As Nicole had focused all of her attention on Benedict, she had no time to check the design drafts


    when she should have prioritized her work.


    In a hoarse voice, she answered, “Whitney, you can take a look at them after years of working by my


    side. If there isn’t any major issue with them, just sign it on my behalf. In addition, Aimee International


    will also check it out, so there won’t be any big problem.”


    Knowing that Nicole was busy, Whitney nodded and agreed. “Okay, for the work after this, I’ll make the


    decisions for you if it’s not anything important. When you’re done, I’ll tell you the details.”


    “Great, that will be it. Thanks,” Nicole replied and hung up.


    After hanging up the call, Whitney nced at the design drafts and since the majority of the drafts


    didn’t have any issues, she signed Nicole’s name on the document directly.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    For the past few days when Nicole wasn’t around, the topics regarding the Golden Brush Competition


    were rife. Even though Nicole was the winner of thestpetition, she even lost the qualification to


    enter thepetition this time.


    Many jealous designers started to add fuel to the fire on the Inte, saying that Nicole changed


    employers directly after gaining fame and she totally deserved it for her situation now.


    At the same time, Whitney was busy at work as well, rebutting theizens who ndered Nicole on


    the Inte. However, while these people were gloating over Nicole’s misfortune, the Pinnacle Group


    of the Schumacher Family announced that they would be joining thepetition this time with Nicole


    as the contestant.


    This had everyone stunned since they thought that she had joined Pinnacle Group!


    However, soon after, Gardner Corporation announced that the contestant they nominated was Nicole,


    too.


    So, what the hell was happening?


    Two of the biggest apparelpanies in the country were fighting over Nicole and wanted her to


    represent them in thepetition.


    This made Joanna really mad. Initially, she thought that even though she might not win thepetition


    this time, she could at least be shortlisted and make an acquaintance with designers from all over the


    world.


    As it turned out, she didn’t even have this chance!


    Pinnacle Group had already nominated Nicole, but she still had to upy the spot from Gardner


    Corporation. Clearly, she was just being a dog in the manger!


    In the meantime, Kylie was having it worse than her. Thinking that she was the Chief Designer of F&M


    Apparel now, she would definitely be the one nominated for the Golden Brush Competition this time.


    In the end, citing internal chaos within thepany, Zachary didn’t nominate anyone on F&M Apparel’s


    behalf.


    So, both of their hopes had fallen through!


    Previously, they were sniggering at Nicole for not being able to enter thepetition, but ironically, not


    only could she participate in thepetition, there werepanies fighting to sign her up. In contrast,


    both of them weren’t even qualified to participate!


    With this, the entire industry knew that even when Nicole had left F&M Apparel, she could still be like a


    fish in the water in the fashion industry, and F&M wasn’t the one who was too good for her, but rather,


    she was too good for them!


    For the reason of bothpanies in the country fighting to have Nicole participate in thepetition


    for them, Nicole’s fame suddenly shot up to a new height.


    Despite that, she had no idea about any of that. At the moment, she was basically separated from the


    rest of the world as she buried her head in Benedict’s data, preparing for his surgery without


    distraction.


    For days and nights, she was busy with preparation, and on Thursday morning, she decided to open up


    the brain to remove the tumor.
