“I’m not so sure,” someone else said. “The video’s right there for everyone to see. How could it be faked? I bet there’s more to the story.

At that moment, another voice called out toward the stage, “Just because you say so doesn’t make it true! If your niece really stole the design, then she doesn’t deserve that championship!”

Liam handed the microphone to

roline and lowered his voice. “You’d better explain every

detail about how you planned this. You know what’ll happen if you don’t.”

Caroline took the microphone with a calm smile. “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure everyone. understands everything loud and clear.”

She faced the audience and began, “Hello, everyone. I’m the aunt of the winner, Ms. Helen, and also the girl in the video you just saw.”

As soon as she introduced herself, murmurs swept through the crowd.

The host had lost all patience. “Whether it’s the truth or a setup, we’ve got eyes and ears. We don’t need your commentary.”
