Fell in Love with Mr.Right at The Wrong Time novel Chapter 16

"As I said... Wait, w-what?" Queenie opened her eyes wide. "W-What do you mean, President Yates?"

Zachary walked to Nicole's side and defended her before every observing eye. "This Nicole lady, who's standing right beside me, is F&M Apparel's one and only Chief Designer, Miss Lisa!" As he voiced his words, silence filled the room. The sudden change of situation left those who were disparaging Nicole stunned.

Nicole is Lisa? But everyone said that Ms. Lisa from F&M Apparel is a woman in her forties! Queenie was in dismay. "That's impossible!"

"Do you think I'm lying to you, miss?" Zachary stared at her with a hostile gaze. Given his tactfulness, he could sense that the woman before him was highly antagonistic toward Nicole. Although Nicole rejected him, he was still in love with her, and he would not allow anyone to condescend her!

Queenie's body trembled as her eyes reddened. Yet, unable to express her frustration, she clenched her fists tightly. She was thoroughly disconcerted.

Nicole's actually Lisa! She's the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel! I've gotten close to Colton and become the young mistress-to-be of Gardner Corporation, but how?! How is she still above me?!

The tables were instantaneously turned.

Most of the people came to the event in order to establish a connection with Lisa. With the golden opportunity presented right before them, they'd rather not ruin their chances.

"Wow, can't believe anyone would doubt Miss Lisa!"

"You said it! And she was so confidently accusing her without checking her 'facts.' Tsk!"

"Apparently, she's Lisa's assistant in the country..."

At that moment, Nicole revealed a subtle smile as she pressed on her tingling wrist that was grasped by Queenie earlier. "Miss Anderson, Mr. Mann." She looked at the two before her. "I'm clueless as to the violation I've caused to the two of you which resulted in your bold accusation of me pretending to be Lisa." Hertone was neutral and unintimidating, as if she was simply making a description. "But now that President Yates has verified my identity, aren't you going to suspect him too?"

The faces of Queenie and Joseph paled at Nicole's formidable reprimand.

Although the majority of F&M Apparel's power was overseas, their influence in the local market remained significant, and they were definitely not one to go up against.

Joseph hurriedly shook his head. "N-Nothing like that, Nicole—I mean, Miss Lisa. I was merely fooled by Queenie's jabbering. I hope you didn't take it

personally, Miss Lisa."
