Chapter 217 Anaya Provokes Me
Joshua brought over a dozen people for potential fights.
Carson only had two bodyguards by his side, and it was difficult to win in terms of numbers.
When Carson saw that his subordinates couldn’t win in such a situation, he also joined the fighting. His eyes were red, and he bit randomly like a madman. He kicked three of Joshua’s men off by himself.
As a father, who had experienced the pain of losing his son, Carson was fierce and crazy. But he was old and had limited ability. And in the end, he was defeated.
Carson stared straight at Lexie. “You murderer. You will be punished. I will not let you off.”
Joshua couldn’t bear to hear Carson say harsh words to Lexie, so he immediately got someone to carry Carson out.
After Carson was taken away, Joshua squatted down to carry Lexie to the sofa.
While seeing Lexie’s swollen face, Joshua felt a little distressed. “Does it hurt a lot?”
The tears in Lexie’s eyes fell.
If it was in the past, Lexie would cry badly with tons of tears.
But her appearance today made it hard for Joshua to feel pity.
“It doesn’t hurt.” Lexie’s voice was trembling as she threw herself into Joshua’s arms and hugged Joshua tightly. “Joshua, I was so scared just now. If you didn’t come today, you might never see me again.” Lexie cried after the words.
Joshua patted her back and comforted her a few times before asking, “You said that Anaya called Carson over. Is that true?”
Lexie nodded. Because she was worried that Joshua wouldn’t believe her, she took out her cell phone and searched through the texts Anaya sent her this morning.
Joshua read them, and his face darkened.
“Anaya is shameless. How dare she do this to you?”
Joshua looked away from the cell phone and looked at Lexie. “Don’t worry. I will get justice for
you.”
Lexie pretended to be moved and threw herself into Joshua’s arms again. “Joshua, I don’t want you to do anything for me. Anaya hates me, but we will stay far away from her. Don’t approach her
anymore, okay?”
Today, when Carson showed up, Lexie was truly frightened.
If possible, she hoped that she wouldn’t have anything to do with Anaya anymore.
As long as Joshua could promise Lexie not to meet Anaya, Lexie also did not want to provoke Anaya again.
But…
Joshua was silent for a moment before saying, “I don’t want to see her either, but she always approaches me. I can’t do anything about it…”
What he meant was that he would meet Anaya again.
Lexie gritted her teeth.
She was injured to this extent, but Joshua still refused to let go of Anaya.
Lexie was angry when her cell phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at the screen.
It was from her studio.
Joshua was still by her side, so she tried her best to sound calm as she answered the call, “What is
it?”
“Lexie. Something bad has happened. Someone said that the design you submitted to the competition of Designers Game was plagiarized.
“Now, the person in charge of the competition has called to ask you to take responsibility. He says to take back your championship qualification. Come and take a look.”
“What did you say? Say it again.” Lexie’s fingers tightened around her cell phone, and her eyes
were wide open.
Designers Game was the most valuable design competition in the design industry, and it was held
once a year.
If Lexie could win the championship, it would become a springboard for her to be promoted to a first-class designer, and it was crucial for her career.
Not long ago, because of the wedding, she was very busy. She did not have much time to prepare for the competition, so she borrowed the works of several interns of the studio and made a fusion upgrade.
Just the day before yesterday, she received a notice for the grand finals to win the championship.
She hadn’t just gotten the certificate, but it was going to be taken back.
And if the matter of her plagiarism was exposed, how would she be able to establish herself in the fashion industry?
She felt that Anaya was so ruthless to her.
Anaya had found someone to harm her and tried to snatch Joshua away from her. It seemed that she had to get rid of Anaya completely.
After Anaya returned home last night, Samuel sent her a text saying that Lexie had put Karley into
the hotel.
Anaya only saw the news this morning. Without hesitation, she sent the evidence to Carson and sent a screenshot to Lexie.
