Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 526 - 526: Someone Took Her Design

The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly turned tense.

Jenkins and others dared not speak up for Savannah.

Mr. Sterling was obviously on Katrina's side.

"Still reluctant?" Katrina, more elated, looked aggressively at Savannah and said, "if you don't want to do it, we won't stop you from quitting."

Savannah clenched her hand. She told herself that she should throw the coffee cup in Katrina's face and then resign to save her last dignity.

However, another voice inside told her not to resign.

If she resigned, she might lose the last chance to see him again...

At least she could still see him if she stayed in Zagreb Film.

Obviously, Katrina was goading her into resignation by deliberately ridiculing her.

If she left in anger, that was exactly what Katrina and Charlotte wanted.

A solemn expression gradually stole into her beautiful eyes. She swallowed her grievance and said calmly, "okay. I'll go get coffee for Miss Kaif."

With that, she hung her head and walked out of the room.

Katrina looked at her back, and her smile froze. No wonder Charlotte said the wicked girl kept pestering Mr. Sterling! She was still unwilling to resign after being treated like this.

Fashion Queen would start its shooting soon, and the design department was getting busier and busier.

Earlier that morning, Jenkins told all the designers to bring their designs to the conference room.

Savannah was responsible for some of the heroine's work clothes, and she had been busy with this for quite a few days. With her design drafts in her arms, she was about to go to the conference room when Katrina walked out of her office and came to her.

Savannah stopped in alarm.

Since the coffee event in the meeting that day, Katrina had been quiet for a few days and barely bothered her.

She didn't know if she came up with a new evil idea.

"Where are you going?" Katrina frowned and crossed her arms as if to catch Savannah slacking off.

"I'm gonna go to the conference room for a meeting," Savannah said, looking at her cautiously.

"I don't know what happened to the printer in my office. It doesn't work. My assistant's busy with something else now. Please take a look at it before you went to the meeting," Katrina ordered her in an imperative tone.

Savannah knitted her eyebrows. She wanted to say she couldn't repair the printer but finally swallowed her unwillingness.

Katrina was now her superior, and she could give her commands directly. Although she couldn't fire her without reason, it was easy for her to find an excuse to drive her out of the company.

Charlotte wanted her to leave Zagreb Film, and she didn't want to hand it to her.

She put aside the design draft and went into Katrina's office.

When she finally had the printer repaired, she straightened up and went back to her seat, picked up the draft, and hurried to the conference room. She knocked on the door and said, "I'm sorry I'm late."

Katrina entered the meeting room ahead of her. "We're all waiting for you," she said, giving her an displeased look.

Savannah resisted the urge to swear. Didn't she know she was late because she asked her to repair her printer?

But she bore it and sat down without any explanation.

When the team was complete, Jenkins began, "I assigned tasks for all of you last week, and everyone got your part of the clothing design for the roles in Fashion Queen. The purpose of the meeting today is to follow the progress of your work. Please show your design draft in turn, and we will choose the most appropriate ones for the heroine."

The light was turned dimmer in the conference room, and the designers began to project their designs onto projectors for others to see.

Jenkins frowned slightly. So far, there was nothing surprising. Then he glanced at Savannah with a trace of expectation in his eyes.

Savannah had a gift in design. Since she entered Zagreb Film, she had brought him many surprises. He hoped she would still show him some excellent works today.

Katrina could see Jenkins' admiration for Savannah. Her eyes narrowed, and her mouth widened slightly with the ghost of a superior "Hm!"

Finally, it was Savannah's turn.

She took a breath, sat down in front of the projector, and took out the design. But before she put it under the projector, she paused, staring at the designs in her hand.

"What's the matter, Savannah?" Jenkins asked when he saw her face change.

These were not her designs, but some other drawings out of nowhere.

Suddenly, Savannah looked up at Katrina.

Katrina changed her designs?

Besides Katrina, she could think no one else! She reviewed the design this morning, and it was all right before Katrina sent her to her office.

Katrina must have changed her designs when she went to repair her printer!

That was too much!

"Jenkins, these are not my designs. Someone took mine away." Savannah kept her temper and said to Jenkins.

"Oh?" People present looked at Savannah, surprised. Then they saw her staring at Katrina as if to accuse it was Katrina who changed her designs.

Katrina found Savannah staring at herself, angry with embarrassment. "What do you mean? Are you saying I took your designs? Do you have any proof?"

"I didn't mean that, but I've checked my designs just now, and nothing was wrong before you asked me to repair your printer. Now my designs were missing. I really don't know who else could change them." Savannah gnashed her teeth.

"You can't accuse me unjustly with no evidence! All right," Katrina pounded the table and stood up, "get the surveillance video, and I want to see if I stole your designs!"

Katrina's assistant went out at once and came back a few minutes later.

As Savannah expected, the assistant reported awkwardly, "I'm sorry, that seat of Savannah is in a dead corner, and the only monitor that can capture the whole office was damaged last month, so I can't see who took the design drawing of Savannah."

Savannah was not surprised at all. Since Katrina dared to ask her assistant to get the video, she must have prepared early.
