Natalie put down her cup of tea and chuckled mockingly. “You've guessed right. There is another reason why she
got in. It is because of her work.”
“Huh?” Lina was confused. “Her work? Are you telling me that Lucy's work received Madam Diana's approval? Is
that why Madam Diana allowed Lucy to join the competition despite being unhappy that she got in through
connections?”
“Yes.” Natalie nodded.
Lina sneered, “No way! How can a person who never learned design produce good work? Are you telling me she
can draw designs well enough to join this competition when she is only a beginner? That's impossible!”
“It's not impossible. If there is a blueprint for Lucy to copy, she can produce works that meet the level required for
this competition.” Natalie gripped the cup tightly as she talked about this, her eyes cold.
Lina was stunned. She recomposed herself a few seconds later and turned to Natalie. “Natalie, are you saying that
she... plagiarize?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie took out her phone and tapped on the screen before giving it to Lina. “See if you recognize whose works
these are.”
Lina took the phone from Natalie and scrolled through a few photos in the folder.
She finished looking at the photos and returned the phone to Natalie. “They're yours.”
“Are you sure?” Natalie asked.
“Yes, I can tell as a designer myself. Although I am a jewelry designer, I understand your style and the direction of
your work. I can confirm these designs are yours.”
Natalie admitted, “You're right. These few works are indeed mine. But I have never published them because I
thought they weren't good enough and stored them in an account on a platform. They are my blood, sweat, and
tears, so even if I'm not happy with them, I can't bear to destroy them. That is why I kept them for memories. I
didn't expect to find them as part of Lucy's work.”
Lina burst into fury upon hearing that.
As a designer, she could never accept anyone plagiarizing her work. Hearing about it made her furious.
Plagiarizing was a taboo among most designers.
Thus, she did not expect to come across someone who dared to plagiarize and used the plagiarized work to
participate in a competition.
She had never seen such a shameless person.
“No wonder Madam Diana allowed Lucy to participate in this competition. It turns out Lucy plagiarized your work,”
Lina said as fury surged in her chest.
Natalie looked at the information about Lucy.
“It doesn't stop at that. She even impressed Madam Diana. Madam Diana praised that her work has soul and said
that Lucy is an extraordinarily talented designer,” Natalie mocked.
Lina pursed her lips. “Well, she is indeed extraordinarily talented. She has a talent for plagiarizing. Nat, we must not
let her off the hook and expose her lies.”
“Don't worry. I will do that, but not now.” Natalie narrowed her eyes.
Lina looked at her and asked, “Nat, do you already have a plan?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie nodded. “I don't know why she suddenly wishes to get into fashion design. But since she dares to use my
work to join the competition, I will hype her up before sending her crashing into a pit. I will make her taste
humiliation before the whole world.”
Lucy had infuriated Natalie this time.
No designer could accept anyone plagiarizing their work and using it to make a name for themselves.
Since Lucy dared to do this, Natalie would make Lucy suffer her wrath.
Lina agreed with Natalie. “You should do that. People like her will always repeat their evil doings if left unpunished.
But Nat, if you don't plan to expose her now, are you planning to reveal her crimes later in the competition?”
“Correct. I will let Lucy have her way for now. Once she thinks she has escaped unnoticed, I will send her crashing
into the depths of hell,” Natalie said coldly and appeared threatening.
However, Lina suddenly frowned. “You can do that, but you mustn't wait too long. We need to bring her down
before the participants are placed in teams. There will be no elimination of participants until after the teams are
formed. If we haven't eliminated her by then, she will use your work to rise in rankings and eliminate other
participants. It will be unfair to the participants she eliminates.”
