Chapter 450
"What can she do to me?" Minerva looked at her indifferently before waving her over. Vera walkedup to her and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Let's take a look at this photo."
Minerva pointed to the screen.
Vera raised her head and her eyes fell on the photo. "The person in the picture is covered fromhead to toe. How can we identify the culprit?"
"This person broke into our company last night."novelbin
Vera's eyes immediately widened. She asked, "Y-you investigated it?"
"Well, I saw the person in two cameras. Although the person was very agile and had found manyblind spots of surveillance, there were still some clues left. Judging from the other party's footsteps,the person should be very familiar with the nearby surroundings and must have carefully planned itfor a long time."
Upon hearing that, Vera came to a realization.
"If the person has been planning for a long time, then they must hold a grudge against us."
Minerva couldn't resist smiling after hearing Vera's words. "If the person holds no grudge against us,why would they break in the building only to ruin Kelly's design? We have to narrow down the list ofsuspects."
"Well, why don't we call the police to arrest the culprit at once? I decorated the exhibition areabeautifully, but now it's all ruined. It's driving me mad!"
Minerva ignored her words. Instead, she asked coldly, "Who do you think would want to ruin thisoutfit?"
Vera said without hesitation, "Who else can it be? A person who holds a grudge against the personwho is going to wear the outfit or against the designer."
"Then, which one do you think it will be?" Minerva looked at Vera with an expectant look.
Vera was stunned for a second, her eyes blinking. Then, with her eyelashes fluttering, she said,"Are you kidding me? To me, both are likely to happen."
"We should analyze it accordingly. The designer is Kelly Lance. We have no idea who would hold agrudge against her based on her past achievements, but this person has worked out the details andplotted it beforehand. They must have started to hold a grudge against Kelly since she was beingassigned to this project. Therefore, the suspects can be narrowed down to the people in our field,myself included."
As soon as Minerva finished speaking, Vera reached out and touched her forehead.
"Are you alright?"
"What's wrong?"
"You're suspecting our company staff?"
Minerva said, "I'm serious."
"Well, carry on. What will you do about our company staff?"
"Do you know why Yasmine came just now?"
"Why? What did she do?"
"She told me that everyone accused her of ruining Kelly's work. What do you think?"
"It's possible. Yasmine has always been jealous of Kelly."
"Yes," Minerva nodded. She stood up as she analysed the situation. "Because of that, Yasminebecame everyone's target after something happened to Kelly."
Upon hearing her words, Vera came to a realization.
"So, you're saying that Yasmine is not the culprit?"
"She's blamed because she stands out too much. She'll only feel guilty if she did such a thing. Whywould she come and complain to me if she really did? In fact, I never doubted her from the verybeginning."
"Then who do you suspect?"
Vera walked up to her and reached out to grab Minerva by her shoulder. "Stop beating around thebush, just tell me who the culprit is."
Seeing Vera's impatient look, Minerva couldn't stop herself from poking Vera's head with her indexfinger. "Why don't you put your thinking cap on?"
"I... You're saying that I'm stupid!" Vera snorted and turned around.
"Do you remember who we met in San Novia?" "Who?" Vera was deep in thought. After ponderingfor a long while, she suddenly recalled something. She widened her eyes, saying, "I know, Yvonne!"
When Vera mentioned Yvonne's name, Minerva was still in a daze as she only remembered theperson but not her name.
"You still remember."
"Is she the one? I can recall it now. She requested us to design her outfit, yet she was too arrogant.Hence, we terminated her contract."
Minerva nodded her head. "Yes. Later on, I heard from Quill that she filed a complaint against us,but he took care of it."
"That's why Yvonne bore a grudge against us."
"She hated us very much. Helen is taking part in the same press conference with her and they willappear on the stage at the same time. I think Yvonne planned it since the beginning."
Minerva took a deep breath. "Of course, this is only my speculation. We still need to confirmwhether it's true."
"I think it's probably her. Not only does she hold a grudge against us, but she also wants to harmHelen. Furthermore, I know that she has been competing with Helen lately. Yvonne wants toovershadow her."
As soon as she heard Vera, Minerva felt a little exhausted. She silently returned to her seat.
"What should we do now? The dress was damaged in such a manner. Shall we... call the police toarrest her directly?"
Minerva shook her head. "They were prepared. It would be a little too late to call the police now.Besides, we already know who the culprit is. We can make them pay... An eye for an eye."
"An eye for an eye?"
Vera widened her eyes: "Are you planning to...?"
"However, we must prove that this is true first. You take care of this matter."
"Me?" Vera pointed to herself in surprise. "Really?"
"Yes, you." Minerva patted her on the shoulder. "All the best, Vera. Gather some evidence and thenwell make our move."
"Then, what are you going to do while I gather evidence?"
"I have to accompany Helen, or else our company's reputation would be ruined."
As soon as her voice fell, the door of the office was pushed open and someone poked her head tolook into the office.
"Is anyone there?"
Helen looked around and asked.
Vera and Minerva were lost for words.
Mr. Clark pulled Helen's head back.
Forcing a smile, he said, "I'm sorry for that."
"Let go of me!" Helen shoved his hand away and pushed the door open. She then threw herself atMinerva.
"Ah, Minerva, I am here!”
"Please take a seat!"
Helen paused in her movements. She looked at Minerva and then at Vera.
"I'm here to see the gown."
Minerva felt a headache. "Aren't you still at the shooting location? How did you arrive here soquickly?"
"I rushed here right away after thinking about your design. We were followed by the paparazzi onthe way, but we shook them off."
