NovelEnglishChapter 72
This turn of events was certainly not on Sylvia's radar. Bridget was pulling out all the stops to undermine her.
Who plagiarized whom? Bridget knew the answer better than anyone, yet here she was, trying to frSylvia
for copying her work.
Drawing inspiration
What a choice of words.
Especially after a reporter reminded everyone that Sylvia had seen Bridget's design drafts ahead of time. If
Sylvia admitted to drawing inspiration, it would be tantamount to admitting that Bridget was superior, hence her
need to borrow ideas for her competition piece. Denying it, on the other hand, would make her look stubborn
and guilty, tainting her second-place victory.
Bridget, playing peacemaker, chimed in, "Let's not get carried away, everyone. Being an inspiration to Sylvia is
an honor for me."
Then, feigning sorrow, she added, "But, | did incorporate sun motifs in my design because | likened the sun to
Rupert. His light makes everything beautiful. To have that 'borrowed' does sting a bit."
Her cheeks flushed with a coy blush as she spoke. Sin the crowd began to murmur and snap more photos.
Rupert, however, remained cool and impassive, his emotions unreadable.
A reporter, seizing the moment to flatter, said, "I'd be upset too. You use the sun, and she uses stars and moon.
Isn't that blatantly provocative? It's just a shMs. Simpson's graciousness is lost on some, who can't even
acknowledge it." Sylvia let out a derisive laugh, finding the whole situation absurd.
Confused, the reporter asked, "What's so funny?"
Sylvia replied, "Do you have any idea how many pieces of jewelry throughout history have featured the sun or

The reporter was left speechless.
Bridget bit her lip, attempting to steer the conversation back. "Sylvia, we're talking about this competition. Why
bring up anything else?"
The reporter, feeling encouraged, countered, "Exactly, in this competition, only the two of you chose celestial
themes. What's wrong with my question?"
Sylvia, locking eyes with them, said calmly, "If you think it's about drawing inspiration, then why would | choose
stars over the sun?"
The reporter, puzzled, asked, "What do you mean?"
Sylvia lifted her gaze to the camera and replied deliberately, word by word, "The sun belongs to the day not the
night, and definitely not to
stars of the moon. They're not of the sworld. Why mix them

The room fell silent. Different worlds entirely; there was no question of borrowing ideas. Rupert glanced at Sylvia,
his gaze deep and chilling, sending a shiver down her spine.

Sylvia, clenching her fists, steadied herself. She challenged Bridget, "Ms. Simpson, your jewelry collection is so
vast, yet the sun element is so tiny. Does that mean Rupert holds such @small place in your heart? Such a dim
light can't illuminate your world. If you truly loved Rupert, shouldn't the sun dominate your design?"
Sylvia threw the question back at Bridget. The cameras turned to Bridget.
"Yeah, Ms. Simpson, if you also believed Sylvia borrowed from your work, why is the sun motif so minor?"
Bridget opened her mouth but had
no response. She couldn't answer.
After all, the concept wasn't
originally hers. She didn't
understand Sylvia's design
philosophy.
