Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 310

Chapter 310 All For Naught

Previously, Gardner Corporation had only handed Nicole the role of the founder of this brand because she was the head designer of F&M Apparel.

Since Kylie was the one taking over this job, she naturally assumed that she would become the founder of Ann instead. This was the main reason Kylie had rushed back to Gardner Corporation even though she had been abroad.

“F&M Apparel and Gardner Corporation’s partnership is legitimate, but so is our individual partnership with Miss Anderson, young lady. So, there’s no conflict of interest here,” Tony uttered.

Kylie’s face fell as she questioned him confusedly. “What do you mean?”

Tony couldn’t help but scoff when he saw the look on the woman’s face. “I meant what I said! Gardner Corporation will collaborate with Miss Anderson for Ann, while we will collaborate with F&M Apparel for other things.”

All the blood drained from Kylie’s face upon hearing the man’s statement. She had only pleaded with F&M Apparel to give her this role because she wanted the fame that would come along with Ann. Yet, in the end, she found out that Nicole was in charge of this brand only after she got to Gardner Corporation.

“That’s impossible. Ann was already created when F&M Apparel and Gardner Corporation were still working together. Nicole was still working under F&M Apparel back then!” Kylie hissed through gritted teeth. She couldn’t believe that she had gained nothing even after coming to this company.

“Our partnership agreement with Miss Anderson has stated everything in black and white. Gardner Corporation’s Ann is a brand that we agreed to collaborate with Miss Anderson. Miss Anderson has

already informed President Yates from your company about it. Do you think she is responsible for reporting to you about it as well?” Tony’s face darkened as he glared at Kylie icily.

Kylie’s face was as gloomy as night—she clenched her fists without saying much. She had just gotten her role as the head designer of F&M Apparel, and things were still unstable. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

She glanced around at all the eyes on her as she thought, I can’t afford to cause any huge uproar just yet. So, she tugged her lips to form a stiff smile before she spoke in a calm tone.

“Of course not. I just wanted to clarify some things as the head designer of F&M Apparel so that I don’t end up in conflicting situations.”

“Well, you don’t have to worry about any of this. Gardner Corporation has been placing most of its focus on Ann. Since F&M Apparel sent a new person over, I guess you can just stay in your office and focus on your designs for now. If you need anything, you can just tell Director Schmidt about it.”

Tony put on a polite yet distant smile as he spoke. “Gardner Corporation wishes to keep Ann’s designs and documents confidential, so you’ll have to ensure that all our data is protected, Director Schmidt. If any of the staff members get access to the drafts, things will get really troublesome if something gets leaked out.”

Kylie felt her face burning with anger. She wasn’t any idiot—she knew who Tony was referring to when he talked about leaking company documents. She balled her fists up as she tried her best to calm herself down.

Even Joanna felt rather clueless after she heard what Tony had said. Joanna had been all prepared to hand Ann over to Kylie, yet she found out that it would still be under Nicole’s name.

Tony smirked when he saw the hostile looks on the two women’s faces. “There’s something else that President Gardner told me to inform you guys about. He ordered me to take good care of the new person from F&M Apparel, but he also highlighted that we had had a shortage of computers recently.

So, I’m afraid you will have to hang in there for a bit while we try to fix this issue. But, it should be fine since you don’t have much to do,” he said to Kylie.

Kylie was utterly shocked. Does that mean that I have nothing to do here after they sent me to Gardner Corporation? I went through so much to get to this company.

I can’t believe I’m in this situation! “No way. I’m the head designer of F&M Apparel! Don’t you guys want to work with us?!” Kylie growled with a look of fury.

“You shouldn’t put too much blame on us, young lady. Gardner Corporation does sincerely wish to have this partnership with your company.

Unfortunately, however, your company is the one that switched staff members midway through our project. That makes us wonder about F&M Apparel’s sincerity in collaborating with us,” Tony uttered.
