Nancy replied, “Although I didn’t major in fashion design, I’ve designed many clothes before.Â
you Since you’ve all joined my team, I won’t let down.”Â
The four designers all felt rather guilty.Â
They’d actually joined Nancy’s team because they thought poorly of their own status within the department.Â
Even if they joined Raine’s team, they wouldn’t be regarded as important. Therefore, they might as well join Nancy’s team so they could at least participate in the discussion.Â
Unexpectedly, Nancy was sincere in helping them improve.Â
“I’ll work hard too, Ms. Moore. I won’t let you down,” Emily said earnestly.Â
Ethan and the others echoed, “Us too!”Â
Nancy’s gaze was gentle as she replied, “Then, please go ahead and start designing. Feel free to come to me if you have any questions.”Â
The designers returned to their seats and immersed themselves in their new sketches.Â
Raine’s designers all returned after a short hour.Â
Someone sat next to Emily, looked at her, and chuckled. “Why are you taking your work so seriously? Your team is bound to lose anyway.”Â
“No, we won’t lose,” Emily said stubbornly.Â
The other designer snorted. “Surely you don’t think you’ll come up with any good designs under that country bumpkin’s leadership, Emily? Ms. Lidell told us just now that Nancy’s not all that great.”Â
Emily simply felt disgusted at those words. “Ms. Moore didn’t say anything bad about Ms. Lidell, yet Ms. Lidell was speaking ill of her.”Â
“You-”Â
The designer was about to say something else, but he noticed Raine approach,Â
Raine put her hand on Emily’s shoulder and smiled. “Keep up the good work, Emily. I have faith in you.”Â
Emily simply shuddered at the sight of Raine’s faux smile.Â
She tightened her grip on her paper and nodded.Â

Over the next few days, Nancy became incredibly busy. She juggled revising the designer’s designs, handling the matter of the Duran skincare products, and overseeing the auction project all at once.Â
She finally got out of work early one day and drove herself home. As she was getting out of the car, she suddenly felt dizzy.Â
She was hypoglycemic, so she squatted down, feeling the world spin around her.Â
Suddenly, a piece of candy was shoved into her mouth. The taste of pineapple spread in her mouth, and she felt her mind slowly regain clarity. She looked up to see Gideon, who had a hint of worry on his handsome, composed face.Â
“Hypoglycemia?” he asked.Â
Nancy nodded.Â
Gideon looked somewhat displeased. Eventually, he sighed and picked Nancy up in a princessÂ
carry.Â
Nancy leaned against his firm shoulder, his familiar cedarwood scent enveloping her whole.Â
She looked at his sculpted side profile and said with a little embarrassment, “I can walk on myÂ
own.”Â
“Look at yourself. You wouldn’t make it two steps before collapsing,” Gideon replied with aÂ
hint of disdain.Â
Nancy pursed her lips. She wasn’t that weak.Â
“Have you not eaten yet?” asked Gideon.Â
“I haven’t.”Â
Gideon gave her a pointed look. “Is your father abusing you? He gave you so much work.”Â
“My father treats me very well,” Nancy retorted immediately. “I just have a lot going on recently,”Â
Gideon smiled in amusement at the fact that Nancy was defending Andrew.Â
After taking the elevator upstairs, Gideon set Nancy down at the entrance to her room. However, he had no intention of leaving just yet.Â
“Thanks for today,” said Nancy.Â
Gideon held up the bag in his hand. “I was just about to head home and make dinner. HowÂ

about I cook at your place instead?”Â
Nancy felt a little hesitant. “Will it be too much trouble for you?”Â

“Since I’ve helped you, I’m seeing this through to the end. What would happen if you were to faint from hypoglycemia again? The police are going to come knocking on my door,” Gideon replied jokingly, looking at her with a wry smile.Â
