Chapter 670
She had the manuscript. After all, she composed the piece without much thought.
She even tore and threw away the manuscript after that.
However, she couldn't bear discarding it, so she retrieved it after that. Since she could easily lose it if she just
slipped it in between the pages of a book, she snapped a photo of it too.
After she did all of that, she threw the manuscript away again.
Never had she expected someone would accuse her of plagiarism.
Seeing Charlotte's obstinance, Hera smiled mockingly. “Since it's your wish to be proven wrong the hard way, I'll
give it to you!”
With that, she dialed Michael's number. “Mr. Underwood, I'm at the venue of the competition and need urgent help
from you. Remember to bring evidence that you composed Sounds of Ranging Winds.”
Michael was puzzled. “Didn't I tell you to perform it during the finals? Why did you decide to perform it so soon?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had pressing matters to handle, so he didn't watch Hera's performance on-site.
However, the Chapman family had paid him a handsome sum, and he never was someone virtuous.
Thus, Hera's words worked on him. “All right. I'll go there right away.”
Michael was running his errand at a location near the competition venue, so it would only take him around ten
minutes to get there.
After Hera hung up, she glanced at Charlotte cockily. “I'm telling you, you're dead meat, you thief!”
Charlotte's heart skipped a beat when she met Hera's domineering gaze.
Lowering her gaze, she said nothing.
“You don't have a comeback for this, have you? I feel ashamed for you for resorting to plagiarism to rise to fame,”
continued Hera viciously.
She couldn't wait to vent her frustration on Charlotte after being humiliated by Ashlyn and Olivia.
Meanwhile, Olivia was taken aback by the fact that there was a dark horse in the preliminary rounds.
Odd enough, the contestant had bandages on her face.
By the way, her name sounds familiar. I think Lochlan's foster daughter goes by the same name. No, this can't be.
Hadn't she gone abroad some time ago? Why is she here? How could there be such a coincidence?
Olivia couldn't help but gaze at Lochlan and Kate, who were sitting not that far away from her.
The man had a sullen look on his face and was obviously in a bad mood.
At the same time, Kate was speaking in a moderate voice that could be heard by those around her.
“Does it matter that she knows how to play the piano? Luckily, she had cut ties with our family. Otherwise, she'll
embarrass us,” she uttered those harsh words in a belligerent tone.
Lochlan cast her a glance. “Quiet, Mom.”
“I'm telling the truth! What? Can't I express my opinions? Plagiarism is plagiarism, and it's definitely a crime!”
She had come to the arbitrary conclusion that Charlotte was involved in plagiarism before Michael had even
arrived.
The thin girl cast her gaze into the distance while standing on stage, only to see the contempt, scorn, and disgust in
Kate's eyes as the latter stared back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was as if Charlotte was trash, nor would she ever deserve to be a part of the Fraser family.
Charlotte's heart pounded. As her heart rate skyrocketed, she felt nervous and awful, all the while wishing she could
run away from the scene.
Her urge to flee was overwhelming.
Meanwhile, Fae was enraged upon hearing Kate's criticisms.
“Some people sure can be condescending. How dare she deem Charlotte guilty of plagiarism before the other party
even comes! She needs to back her claim with evidence! Otherwise, people could always sue her for defamation!”
Fae didn't mince words. Her words were harsh and serious.
Hearing that brought relief to Charlotte's agonizing heart.
All of a sudden, she felt less afraid.
Just when Kate was about to retort, Michael entered the place in a hurry.
When he took in the crowd in the theater and Charlotte, who was standing on the stage, he was befuddled.
Right when he was about to call Hera, he heard her speaking proudly. “He's my piano tutor, Michael Underwood.
You must have heard of him! He has taught a lot of students and won countless awards. The song that Charlotte
plagiarized was composed by Mr. Underwood!”
