Chapter 161 Daniella Is Discharged
Nicole walked around the company. Since it was during working hours at this time, there were only a few people outside and even fewer cars on the road.
During the walk, she felt that she could finally calm down a little since her head also felt much better.
She sighed slightly. There were too many things happening these days, and it was even more troublesome than when she was in F&M Apparel.
Back at the Design Department, Scarlett walked in resentfully as soon as she returned to her desk.
Nicole knew that she didn’t really have a temper, and for her to be so angry, she probably had really encountered something serious.
“What’s wrong?” Nicole looked up and asked.
Scarlett pursed her lips slightly, then looked at Nicole and said, “Nicole, this is obviously Daniella’s fault, but now many people are taking Daniella’s side—this is just too much!”
When she listened to Scarlett’s grievances for her, Nicole kind of knew what she meant, and she figured the employees outside her office were probably discussing this matter.
She smiled. When she saw Scarlett’s angry look, she patted Scarlett on the shoulder to comfort her. “I never care about other people’s opinions. I believe that we just need to be ourselves.”
Scarlett realized her own gaffe and lowered her eyes slightly. Then, she nodded and responded, “I know. It’s just that I think they’re too much when they keep talking about you behind your back.”
Nicole shook her head helplessly. She said with a smile, “At most, I will only stay here for a few more months. When the time is up, I will return to F&M Apparel. Scarlett, you should try to keep a little distance from me. Otherwise, when I leave, you will not have a good time here.”
When Scarlett heard Nicole’s words, there was a trace of sadness on her face. After nearly a month in the department, she had seen it all with her own eyes.
Almost everyone in the Design Department were those who would change their stand according to the situation. Only Joanna was slightly better than the rest, and there was Nicole too, who was the only one with a genuine personality.
“If they are going to be like this, then I might as well not stay here!” Scarlett pouted.
Nicole smiled in mock frustration. Although this girl looked a little weak, she was still strong when it mattered.
“Alright. Let’s not talk about these bad things anymore. You can just pretend that you didn’t hear it,” Nicole said quietly. This was not F&M Apparel, so she couldn’t and wouldn’t say much.
“Okay.” Scarlett nodded.
At this moment, Tony looked up at Colton, who was sitting in the President’s office.
Colton rested his chin on one hand and twirled a pen with the other, his eyes drooping slightly. He looked deep in thought.
Earlier when Tony was still working outside the office, he was suddenly called in by Colton, presumably because there was something important.
Tony blindly guessed that it was because of Nicole, so he said carefully, “Now, there is a video Daniella Zimmer posted on the Internet, threatening Lisa that she will kill herself if Lisa doesn’t withdraw the lawsuit…”
Colton’s expression changed a little, and he replied softly, “Alright.”
Tony was frustrated. He knew that Colton was obviously worried about Nicole, but he still had to pretend he didn’t care. Immediately, he cleared his throat and continued, “Daniella has been discharged from the hospital. I sent someone to follow her, but she went into a hotel and never came out again.”
“A hotel?” Colton lifted his eyes and asked with a slight frown.
Tony nodded. “Yes, she didn’t contact anyone after she was discharged from the hospital. Instead, she went directly to the hotel, and no one looked for her during this period. Her meals were also directly brought upstairs to her.”
“Get someone to look for a chance to install a bug in her room,” Colton said in a low voice.
Tony was stunned. This kind of sneaky thing didn’t look like something Colton would usually do. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
Colton narrowed his eyes with a half-smile on his face. He lowered his voice and said righteously, “Well, since she is thinking of committing suicide, installing a bug in her room is to protect her.”
It was impossible to refute that.
