At that moment, Shane didn’t respond as he stared at Jacqueline in a probing manner. However, he didn’t notice anything amiss and returned his attention to the live stream.
Perhaps, the awkwardness that he sensed from Jacqueline was just a figment of his imagination.
Back at the competition, Natalie nodded at Mr. Horner before accepting the mic that was handed to her.
The room fell into a silence as everyone knew she had something to say.
“Hello, hello?” Natalie tested the mic to make sure her voice was getting through. After she was satisfied, she spoke with a smile on her face, “Hello everyone, I’m sure all of you are curious as to what I have to say.”
The audience below the stage nodded.
Natalie looked in Jasmine’s direction and continued, “I want to talk about what happened with Jasmine.”
Jasmine’s heart skipped a beat as she was suddenly overwhelmed by fear, causing her to feel as if she was sitting on pins and needles. Grabbing on tightly to her wheelchair, her fingers had lost all color.
“Why do you need to talk about me? Natalie, what are you planning to do? You have already ruined me and yet you still want to do it again?” Jasmine screamed as she stared daggers at Natalie.
Natalie maintained her smile. “You’re right. However, I wasn’t the one to destroy you. Instead, you brought this upon yourself. What I’m going to share with everyone happened before the competition. I want to expose you for the plagiarist that you are. Not only did you copy my design just now, but you have also been plagiarizing on a massive scale all this while. Please look at the screen!”
Just as she spoke, the screen lit up with a comparison of designs.
Jasmine’s designs were shown on the left while those belonging to other famous designers were placed on the right.
Other than the difference in names, the designs were largely the same except for minor changes in color and motifs.
In total, there were tens of designs involved which shocked everyone.
