Lisa could swear that Minne never mentioned that before.
Beside her, Jisoo was so annoyed that she pointed at Minniewhile keeping a hand on her hip, scolding, "You never told Lili! You're framing_"
Lisa had pulled her behind herself before she could finish.
Indignant, Jisoo stamped her feet, "What are you doing, Lili!?"
However, Lisa ignored her and coolly said, "Miss Minnie I have a good memory but I don't recall you informing me".
"But I did. In fact, the whole department is aware that Miss Bae is allergic to lavenders" Minnie said innocently adding loudly, "Isn't that right?"
Everyone in the department quickly nodded, making it evident that Lisa was pretending that she was unaware, and that her misdeed had caused Suzy's mishap.
Lisa's eyes narrowed, "Miss Minnie, it doesn't matter whether I know. I never once said that you to use lavender essence on clothing, and I am only in charge of editing your drafts and approving them for production. On the other hand, don't you think you have something to do with this matter, being the leader of the design department?"
"That's right" Jisoo agreed. "You're throwing every blame on Lili!"
Be that as it may, Minnie did not look guilty at all, and instead smiled even wider. "Could you have forgotten your status Lisa? You're chief designer You mange the entire department, and the protect was delivered to Miss Bae when it was finished! Moreover, us lackeys aren't allowed to enter production, only you are!"
That was a commonly known fact in KBS no ordinary worker had clearance to enter production.
Minnie's words left a freezing atmosphere.
Lisa's eyes turned cold as well, because she was going to be the scapegoat for this one.
Minnie was clearly feeling pleasant at her silence too. Although there was a flash of envy when she saw Lisa's necklace, she whispered beside her ear. "What should you now, Lisa? Go plead with President Jeon, only he can save you now".
Lisa stared impassively at her smug look.
Was she trying to provoke her? Too bad, it would not work. After all, wasn't she just belittling her because she thought that she was lacking in ability, and only depended on Jungkook?
Lisa then turned to Minnie with a smile, "I'm sorry, but it appears that our design department has made a mistake. Please give me some time to investigate the matter so that we could settle the matter. What do you think?"
Minnie knew about Lisa's connection with Lisa as well and did not dare to cross the line since she was not to be crossed.
She hence nodded. "Fine! But let's talk compensation first".
Lisa calmly said, "If it was due to my carelessness, I will take full responsibility and reimburse any damages in full...."
She then paused, and threw a cold glance at Kim Gayeon. "But if it wasn't wouldn't be just a matter of reimbursement!"
"Alright", Kim Gayeon agreed. "I'll give you a week!"
Lisa watched as she left, her smile fading as she strode of as well.
Minnie jeered from behind. "Wouldn't it be President Jeon footing the bill? Full reimbursement, even? You really don't feel a thing all!"
Since all bridges were burnt between Lisa and Minnie, Jisoo spared no face at all. "So what? You jealous? Our Lili is beautiful and talented. What does it have to do with you even if President Jeon gives her all of KBS?"
