Silvia rubbed her forehead and said, “Ignore the online comments. We’ll talk about it after the launch.”
However, the employee remained worried. “But everyone here already knows. The reporters are askingMiss Wiliams about it, and she doesn’t know how to handle it.”
Silvia’s eyes shone with displeasure as she rushed toward the stage. Rita was surrounded by a groupof reporters, and everyone wanted an answer for her plagiarism.novelbin
Panic was written all over her face, and her anxiety prevented her from defending herself. On top ofthat, her eyes were red, and she looked completely helpless.
The reporters took her silence as a sign to continue their line of questioning. Even the staff failed tostop them.
Meanwhile, Dulcie tried to assure the clients that MY Corporation’s designer had not
plagiarized anything. There had to be some kind of misunderstanding, but the hall was a mess.
Silvia walked swiftly to Rita’s side and spoke sternly into the camera, “Rita didn’t copy anyone’s design.MY Corporation would never tolerate such a thing. We’ll definitely get to the bottom of this!”
“Miss Pond, Perficient launched their new products before you and only sold them abroad. Are yousure MY Corporation didn’t make use of this loophole to copy their clothes? Perhaps you thought thatno one would find out because you modified some of the details,” a reporter accused.
Silvia glared at him and slowly said, “In that case, can I say that Perficient plagiarized MY Corporation’sdesigns instead? They sold their products abroad because they were afraid of being found out if theysold them here.”
Her words made the reporter splutter. “Why would Perficient point out the plagiarism online if theyplagiarized you?! Are you trying to slander them, Miss Pond?” the reporter continued with anunpleasant expression.
Silvia sneered. “They’re trying to pin it on us so that they can get away with it.”
“How dare you!”
Silvia interrupted him before he could say anything else. “We won’t answer any more questions beforethe truth comes out.”
After that, she pulled Rita away.
Once Rita was backstage, she collapsed on the table and cried.
“I didn’t plagiarize my designs, and I worked really hard on them. Someone must have leaked them toPerficient!”
Silvia remained silent. She had seen the clothes that Perficient were selling abroad. She realized thatthey were the designs that she had modified for Rita.
Rita modified them again after she had some new ideas. As a result, their newest products wereslightly different from the clothes that Perficient sold abroad.

She recalled making the amendments at the mansion. At that time, she was sleepy, so she agreed tolet Neil turn off her laptop for her.
This realization made her subconsciously clench her fists.
“Did you share your designs with anyone else, Rita?”
Rita tried to recall, but she found herself shaking her head. “No. I’ve only worked on them in thecompany.”
After a brief silence, Silvia whispered, “Go home and rest. Don’t come to work or read the commentsonline for the next few days. I’ll look into this matter.”
Rita nodded. “Okay, Miss Pond… I really didn’t plagiarize my designs…”
“I trust you.”
Rita was touched by the trust in Silvia’s eyes. Her eyes were red when she left.
Silvia headed to Remus Corporation after she and Dulcie sent the clients off.
She received a call from Neil as she parked her car.
“I had a meeting earlier. I see what’s happening online. How are things going, Sil?”
She kept her head low and answered slowly, “We’re still investigating…”
Are you?“!
He sounded genuinely worried, but Perficient was selling the first batch of designs that she hadmodified.
At this moment, she could not tell if he was ignorant or just good at acting.
She eventually said, “I’m downstairs.”
