Serena Sullivan’s eyes turned red, looking at Zoe Quinn, and she cried out in panic, "Zoe, I really didn’t take your necklace, I have no reason to take it."
Her agitated voice caught the attention of the design department outside. The door was ajar, and in no time, many people appeared at the doorway.
Zoe Quinn was just thinking about how to draw people over when Serena Sullivan saw the necklace found in her drawer, scared herself into shouting so loudly."
Heh, now let’s see how Zoe can make Serena lose all face in the eyes of everyone at The Grant Corporation.
Tears came instantly, a skill Zoe Quinn had long perfected to an art form. She looked at Serena Sullivan with pain and disbelief, tears brimming her eyes.
"Why did you steal my necklace?"
"You knew perfectly well that this necklace was awarded to me from the ’Brilliance Competition’ gold prize. It’s the most precious to me."
"Sister, why did you steal it! Why!"
Zoe Quinn asked while crying, her tears quickly spreading across her face, and those outside couldn’t help but be moved by her sorrowful and heartbroken emotions.
"There’s no reason for Mrs. Grant to steal Miss Quinn’s necklace."
In the midst of Zoe Quinn’s sorrowful cries, Designer Cheney behind Serena Sullivan whispered.
"Indeed." Serena continued from Designer Cheney’s words, "If I truly liked some jewelry or necklace, I could just ask, and Mr. Grant would buy it for me."
"Not just one, he could buy a thousand."
Serena asked incomprehensibly.
The onlookers hearing Serena’s words felt it made sense. They stepped closer to the office, looked at the saddened Zoe Quinn and said, "Miss Quinn, there must be some misunderstanding here! Mrs. Grant wouldn’t steal your necklace."
Ethan Grant’s wife, wouldn’t she have the money to buy a necklace?
Seeing everyone leaning towards Serena, Zoe Quinn, wiping away her tears, fiercely bit her lip, and Shannon Shaw then forcefully yelled out, "Because she’s jealous of Miss Quinn."
"Four years ago, Mrs. Grant plagiarized Miss Quinn’s work and was kicked out of the ’Brilliance Competition’. That work was this necklace."
Once again, bringing up Serena Sullivan’s plagiarism against Zoe Quinn.
Serena did not compete in loudness with Shannon Shaw, she didn’t even open her mouth. Her fingers lightly tapped against her leg.
The play has just begun.
Shannon Shaw’s shout stirred the surrounding designers to discuss. Designers hate when their work is stolen.
Four years ago, if it wasn’t brought up, they might forget. But once Shannon Shaw mentioned it, even though Serena was Mrs. Grant, their looks at her began to change.
Disdain, contempt, and anger.
"Did she become The Chief Designer this time by stealing someone else’s work too?"
"We thought she achieved it with her own skill."
Four years ago, plagiarism, four years later, people would still think she attained her position through plagiarism.
"So, that’s how it is!" Check latest chapters at NovelHub(.)net
In Shannon Shaw’s furious voice, Zoe Quinn cried slowly as she spoke, looking at the wheelchair-bound Serena Sullivan, nearly unable to suppress the smile in her heart from showing.
"Sister, you hate me for reporting you back then, so you stole this necklace to revenge on me."
"Why! Four years ago, I let you go, and four years later, you’re taking all my things one by one!"
These words, Serena felt Zoe Quinn got half right.
Four years ago, it was she who let Zoe Quinn go.
Four years later, she wants to take things from Zoe Quinn one by one.
