“All right. Since we have agreed on working together, how should we deal with Natalie?” Lucy clenched her fists as

she looked at Hannah.

The latter did not instantly reply, instead, she looked at the blueprint in her hands. “Now that you have finished

designing, you should have handed it in today. However, you didn't because Natalie and the others would definitely

know that you aren't the original creator of the design and would suspect that you have plagiarized. Therefore, you

didn't dare to submit it today and instead planned to hand it in tomorrow before the deadline. Because that way,

Natalie and the others wouldn't have time to find the original creator of your blueprint. If all goes well, you might

even be able to advance to the next round. That's what you're thinking, right?”

Lucy bit her lip and remained silent.

Hannah was precisely right.

She was afraid that if she handed her work in right away, Natalie and the others would have ample amount of time

to search for the design that she had plagiarized and expose her the next day.

Hence, Lucy decided not to submit it just yet but to do it tomorrow. As a result, they would not have the time to look

for the original designer.

That was the only best way she could think of to avoid being exposed and eliminated by Natalie and the others.

Lucy knew that she could not use the same plan over and over again. Regardless, she had no other way. All she

could do was take things one step at a time.

When Hannah noticed Lucy's silence, she smiled smugly. “Seems like I was right.”

“So what?” Lucy frowned. Judging by her tone, she was obviously disgruntled.

Hannah shrugged. “Nothing. I just want to tell you that it doesn't matter if you submit it today or tomorrow, as you

won't be able to prevent Natalie and the others from discovering your secret. That's because they can just stop the

competition and find out who you plagiarized from before allowing the competition to resume. Therefore, no

matter how hard you try, your effort will be for naught.”

“What?” Lucy's expression fell. “Stop the competition? She can't do that.”

“Obviously, she can. You're not part of the design industry, so you don't know the rules of this profession. With one

word from Natalie and one mention from her that you might have plagiarized, the organizer will immediately pause

the competition and run an investigation on the work that you submitted. In this industry, plagiarizing is a serious

offense. If you are found guilty of plagiarism, not only will you be blacklisted in this profession, but what you did will

also be recorded. This will cause your career to be restricted even if you switch professions. If whatever you

plagiarized is involved in business and generated profit, you might even have to go to jail for it.”

As Lucy listened to Hannah, her face gradually turned as pale as a sheet. “I-Is it really that serious?”

“Of course. I don't benefit from lying to you, and this is the reality. If you don't believe me, you may ask around.

You'll know if I'm telling the truth or not.” Hannah shrugged.

Lucy bit down on her lip hard as her body started trembling like leaves in the wind. A chill ran down her spine.

She had never expected her actions to cause such a terrible consequence.

All she had in her mind was to use someone else's design to go against Natalie.

There was no way she had ever thought about the possibility of getting blacklisted or even jailed for such a

harmless action.

“What should I do now?” Lucy asked fearfully.

She was really beginning to regret her actions. She regretted not quitting when Lina offered her a way out.

Not only that, she was even more regretful when she thought about how she refused to quit when she had already

known that Natalie and the others were aware that her work was not her own. Lucy had been so stubborn that she

literally dug her own grave.

At that very moment, she nearly broke down.

Hannah narrowed her eyes. “Your only option is to bring them down before they even have a chance to expose

you.”

“I obviously know that, but how?” Lucy's face contorted in an ugly manner. “If I had an idea, I would have carried it

out already. Why would I ask you if I did?”

“It's simple. I have a plan in mind right now.” Hannah smiled as she waved her cell phone.

Lucy's eyes lit up. “What plan?”
