Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 141

As soon as the unique "A" sign showed up, the reporters in the banquet hall immediately crowded Jessica, bombarding her with one piercing question after another.

"Jessica, you claimed this mermaid dress was your own design, yet it bears Attelia's 'A' mark. How do you explain this?"

"Jessica, Jaden accused you of stealing Attelia's design. Do you dare to respond? Do you dare to admit it?"

At this moment, Jessica's mind was in turmoil. Her face drained of color, and she felt like she had fallen into an abyss. A chill ran down his spine.

'What's happening? Why is there an "A" mark on my glove... What on earth is going on!'

Jessica's lips trembled, her face pale, but she defiantly retorted, "I didn't steal Attelia's design. The 'A' mark is there because I admire Attelia, so I stitched it in the clothing!"

Jaden scoffed, his tone laced with disdain, "Jessica, just a moment ago, you were insisting that there was no 'A' sign on this dress. Why change the story suddenly?"

"I..." Jessica was speechless, caught by her own contradictory statements.

Just then, a female reporter approached Jaden and said urgently, "Mr. Walter, may I use your magnifying device?"

A male reporter nearby recognized her. "Hey, we talked at the beginning of the party. The dress you're wearing is from the Ramos Group fashion brand, and Jessica designed it!"

The female reporter nodded. "Right."

She really liked Jessica's design but disdained her character, planning to wear this dress only once after buying it. She had never expected that Jessica's design would seem to be a copy.

Jaden raised an eyebrow and passed over the magnifying device.

The reporter took it and carefully examined the dress' sleeve. Then, her face turned shocked. "There's one here too! This dress also has the 'A' mark of Attelia!"

Everyone around immediately looked over in surprise, and they were shocked upon seeing that.

"What the heck? This is Ramos Group's clothing brand's product, right? And it also has the 'A' mark!"

"Even if Attelia is Jessica's idol, and Jessica leaves the 'A' symbol on her own dress, that's not right leaving it on other clothes sold by the Ramos Group, is it?"

"What idol? Jessica just contradicted herself! She was just swearing there was no 'A' mark on her gown, and next, Jaden found it with a magnifying device. It's clear she stole the design!"

"So, all the outfits Jessica designed for the Ramos family were just stolen from Attelia?"

"That's terrifying! No wonder Jessica suddenly claimed she could design clothes. She had never designed any before. Plus, her skills are so impressive, and her style is so similar to Attelia's. Now everything makes sense!"

The reporters pieced together the story, and the cameras turned back to Jessica. The rising star designer was actually a thief... There was no bigger scandal than that.

"Jessica, do you actually have any design talent, or were all your designs stolen?"

"Jessica, when Ashley competed with those foreigners a few days ago, you knocked over a water bottle to ruin her design. And now, it turns out all your designs are stolen from Attelia. Don't you think your personality is rotten?"

Jessica was jostled and pushed, stumbling backward.

Those sharp questions, the disdains and probing gazes of those around her, made her feel as if she were nailed to a shame pole, so embarrassed that it was even hard to breathe.

'The 'A' logo... Why did every piece of clothing have an 'A' logo on it?' This was the only thought in her mind.

Frankie didn't expect this turn of events and was completely bewildered, thinking, 'Jessica's designs were stolen...' He didn't even realize the reporters were surrounding Jessica.

"Why don't we ask Ashley herself?"

The reporters immediately shifted their focus, turning their questions toward Ashley.

Watching Ashley being surrounded by the journalists, Jessica smiled smugly. 'Ashley, oh Ashley, if I'll suffer, you'll suffer with me!'

The reporters crowded in front of Ashley, asking urgently, "Ashley, did you hear that? Jessica claims those design drafts were taken from your room. She's accusing you of stealing from Attelia! Can you give us an explanation?"

Before Ashley could say anything, Jaden suddenly dragged a chair over for her to sit.

The reporters were baffled.

Seriously, who had the mood to sit down now? This wasn't some relaxed press conference, after all.

"Mr. Walter, you..." A reporter began but suddenly stopped, eyes widening in disbelief and stuttering. "This chair..."

Jaden dragged over a chair with a sticker written "Attelia" on the back.

It was Attelia's chair, yet Jaden brought it over for Ashley to sit in...

Everyone was bewildered, thinking, 'Is Ashley worthy to sit on that chair... Wait a second!'

Jaden mentioned that Attelia would come to tonight's dinner. And tonight, Ashley walked into the hall with Jaden, dressed in Attelia's limited design, the Iris Twilight.

'No way, Ashley is actually...'
