A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire novel Chapter 38

Eliza stared at the painting in front of her.

No matter how she looked at it, it was exactly the same as hers.

The only difference was that this one was placed in a fancy frame. It looked very grand as if it was well preserved.

The signature on the painting was a name that she had never seen before, but the date was exactly half a year earlier than hers.

How could it be possible? Her inspiration for this painting came from that sea of flowers.

Half a year ago, the flowers had not even bloomed!

Also, where did this painting that was identical to hers even come from?

Eliza tried to think hard, but she could not figure out what was wrong or how it even happened.

In everyone's eyes, Eliza was now guilty.

The hall became noisy once more.

As Eliza listened to the people’s relentless scoldings, her face turned as paler than a sheet of paper.

At this moment, the manager, who had been standing by at the side, started to speak.

"Eliza, what's wrong with you? How could you submit plagiarized work! You've dragged the company through the mud! The evidence is in front of you. Now, apologize to them quickly!"

Mr. Kidd tidied up his clothes triumphantly as if he was royalty and waited for her to kneel before him and apologize.

Seeing this situation, before Eliza could say anything, Lina immediately stood up for her.

“Ms. Stone is not that kind of person. We have worked together for a long time, and I know her well!”

Upon hearing that, Mr. Kidd showed a gloomy look.

"Oh, so it seems that you are her accomplice!"

Lina was so angry that she wanted to argue with him.

"You!"

However, Eliza pulled her back.

“Don’t be impulsive, he is here for me. Don’t get yourself into trouble.”

Eliza whispered in her ear softly.

“But what should we do now?” Lina knew Eliza’s character well. She was very worried about her.

Eliza felt that there was something strange about all this. It was obvious that someone was deliberately trying to frame her, but how did that person get her work?

Before she could even think of an explanation, Mr. Kidd spoke.

"Come on, Ms. Stone. The evidence has been revealed. Aren't you going to admit it? As long as you kneel, apologize to me, and swear that such a thing will never happen again, we'll settle it privately. Otherwise, I will have to report it to the police and have you prosecuted. A serious offense can result in imprisonment! Think about that!"

Eliza was now in a dilemma. She would never admit to something she didn’t do. The whole thing was strange, but she just couldn't find figure out what went wrong!

Lina secretly tugged on her hand and said, "Eliza, is there anyone in your family who has a strong background? I think that someone deliberately wants to make trouble for you. If there is, let him come forward so that we can suppress this matter first."

Lina was younger than Eliza, and she entered the company a little later than her.

Someone with a strong background…

In terms of power, there was no one else who could be compared to Tanner. The Deleon family was like royalty in San Francisco.

However, she quarreled with him the night before. Should she call him…

Seeing how much of a dilemma she was in, Lina quickly tugged at her!

“Eliza, these people did not come with good intentions. They are not going to let this end so easily. If this matter is spread out, you will be known as a plagiarizer. After that, your future will be ruined!”

Seeing how anxious Lina was for her, Eliza felt grateful. Lina was the only person who trusted her.

"Thank you for trusting me." Eliza tried hard to force a smile.

\“What are you talking about, Eliza? We have been together for so long. I know that you won’t do something like that… Oh, you should hurry up and call someone!”

Under Lina’s encouragement, Eliza dialed Tanner’s number.

“Hello, the number you have called is unreachable. Please try again later…”

She listened to the mechanical female voice from the other end of the phone, and her heart sank little by little.

It was almost 12:50 p.m. He should be working in the company now. Why was he not answering her call…

……

At that moment, Tanner was about to reach the foot of the mountain. At that moment, his satellite phone rang once more.

"President, we have found out who is the person behind it. It’s Michael. What do you think we should do now?"

"Don't do anything for now. Send me Eliza's address. We need to solve the problem on her side first."

"Yes."

Tanner fastened his pace. He could already see the car that was parked by the side of the road.

As soon as Tanner sat down, the driver could feel the temperature in the car instantly dropping by more than ten degrees. The coldness exuding from the president's body made him tremble.

He threw his phone to the driver and said in a cold voice,

"Get to this address, quickly."

“Yes.” The driver dared not delay, he immediately started the car.

Michael was a bold man. Back then, he was bold enough to kidnap her. Tanner did not finish him off. He only gave him a little bit of warning.

However, if he dared lay another finger on her, then Tanner would not be polite to him any longer.

……

On the other hand, Eliza’s situation was quite sticky.

If she refused to apologize, then that man would call the police. Judging by the current situation, she would be taken away directly. By that time, she would either have to face a fine or risk going to jail.

Now, she only had two options. One was to apologize and admit that she had plagiarized the work. The other was for her to find evidence to prove that the work in Mr. Kidd’s hands was fake!

However, how was she supposed to prove herself like this? Even if she knew that this whole situation was weird, she could not find the evidence to back her up!

She was facing a dead end. In any case, Eliza would be labeled as a plagiarizer from now on!

Seeing how she was not taking any action, the man could not stand it anymore. He could not wait any longer. Otherwise, the situation would change!

"If you don't apologize or kneel, I will call the police!" He threatened.

"I bought her work."

The crowd was still discussing the matter. However, just as they were accusing her, a different male voice could be heard.
