Chapter 397
While her heart raced in her chest, Zoe glared at Olivia, who was slowly approaching. I must never let others realize
that this is actually Olivia’s design.
Previously, when I left her studio, she had said some unpleasant things and I took everything that she said to heart.
However, I felt too embarrassed to look for Olivia again, so I went to another fashion studio and described her
design, where they followed my instructions and demands to complete this gown. I have to say that I was satisfied
when I saw the completed gown at that time. However, now that I’m staring at Olivia’s completed design, I realize
the vast difference between my imitation gown and her original design! What should I do now? I never expected to
run into her here!
I could easily pretend not to hear what others have said behind my back, but I’m sure that Olivia would mock me if
she sees me. I’ve scolded her badly in the past, but in the end, I’m using her design anyway. Does this count as

Just then, a few of Zoe’s friends from the crew approached her.
“Zoe, why is your gown the same as Olivia’s? Did you have it tailored at Olivia Maxwell Studio?”
“That’s right! Doesn’t the Olivia Maxwell Studio claim that their dresses are one of a kind? Why would there be two
similar dresses?”
“If you had your dress tailored at her studio, you should go ahead and question her on whether she is trying to
embarrass you.”
Zoe forced herself to remain calm while innocently looking at Olivia. “I’m not sure, but I definitely did not have my
gown made at her studio. Nevertheless, I have dropped by her studio in the past and told her what I wanted for my
attire. In the end, she made it sound as if it was worthless. She claimed that I should play to my strengths while
hiding my shortcomings before saying that I don’t have a flattering chest. Anyway, she commented a lot, so I
became so angry that I went to another studio. Maybe she utilized some of my ideas while making some
modifications to them before it ended up as her current gown.”
Everybody looked shocked when they heard that before giving Olivia looks of contempt.
“I see. In that case, isn’t Olivia committing plagiarism?”
“That’s right! Zoe, you can’t let her bully you! She now has the spotlight on her and is clearly trying to embarrass
you!”
“How could she do that as a fashion designer? How is she different from a thief when she steals your idea for her
own use just because she thinks it’s a good one while criticizing you?”
Zoe knew the truth. However, she had no choice but to pretend that she was aggrieved. “There’s nothing I can do
about it since I don’t have any proof. I’ll just admit that I have bad luck.”
Those women exchanged glances before someone blurted out, “At the very least, you still have to approach her
and ask about it! Otherwise, you’d be the one humiliated under the current circumstances.”
“That’s right! She has also stolen your limelight. Besides, someone even claimed earlier that you...”

Zoe asked, “What is it?”
The woman went closer to her while whispering, “The crowd is saying that you look like a crude imitation!”
Zoe frowned deeply when she heard that. It looks like I have to make the first move. If Olivia claims that I stole her
design, I’d be utterly humiliated. In fact, these so-called ‘friends’ would most probably drown me in their scathing
remarks.
Once she thought of that, she took out her phone to make a phone call...
At that moment, Olivia was oblivious that she was the subject of the crowd’s discussion.
It wasn’t often that the reporters were able to meet a pretty woman in the flesh, so the cameras continuously
flashed. They knew clearly that she was not part of the main act yet they still went crazy for her.
It wasn’t about anything else, but the mere fact that she was stunning.
Her red dress was clearly not as revealing as the other celebrities’ outfit, but she was somehow inexplicably
seductive.
Everybody saw her faint smile while picking up the pen from the tray to sign her name across the wall.
