In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 372

Grace smiled as she explained, "You might not believe it, but she was having lunch with Susan today. They seemed quite close."

"No way! Your ex-mother-in-law? Does she want Benjamin to marry Jessica?"

Smiling, Grace raised an eyebrow and didn't continue the topic. "Thanks, babe. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Sure thing. I'll get back to work."

After ending the call, Grace put Jessica's business card away. Although she and Jessica had little interaction, she had a faint premonition that they would meet again.

And her premonition was correct.

Just a few days later, she received a call from Emily. "Babe, we've got a problem."

"What's wrong? Don't be anxious. Take your time to explain."

"Quickly check your phone. Someone has accused several classic dresses from our boutique of plagiarism. The topic is currently the top trending topic."

Grace thought it was absurd. She went on Twitter and clicked on the trending list.

As expected, the name of her boutique was displayed at the top, and the word "plagiarism" stood out.

Since the boutique's business had always been good and it had a broad target audience, it had many loyal customers and fans. As a result, after being reported, the topic gained significant attention.

"Oh my God! That classic dress is my favorite in their store. I never thought it was a copy."

"It's not just one dress. It's multiple dresses copied, all from the same designer. Doesn't the designer feel ashamed?"

"How can the designer feel ashamed? If she had any shame, she wouldn't have done such a thing."

"Originality is God. Plagiarists should be nailed to the pillar of shame. This store should close down as soon as possible."

At the same time, Xander also rushed over. Seeing Grace outside the crowd, he pulled her over worriedly. "Gracie, are you okay?"

Exhausted, Grace lifted her eyes and looked at Xander. Finally, her eyes became focused. "Xander, I didn't plagiarize."

Though it was only one sentence, Xander felt his heart ache at her words. He embraced her. "I know. I believe you. But this matter isn't that simple. We have to handle it carefully."

His words gave Grace the strength she needed to pull herself together. "We must investigate the truth of this matter and not endure such injustice."

She quickly called Emily and left the mall with Xander.

…

Later, Emily rushed to the top-floor office at Futurelink. She handed over the information she had found to Grace.
