Everyone present was dumbfounded.

Stealing someone else's work?

“Seriously? Did Ms. Smith just say Lucy stole someone else's designs?”

“I heard that, too. Just now, Lucy accused Ms. Smith of plagiarism and now Ms. Smith is accusing Lucy of stealing

someone else's designs. This sounds... too dramatic.”

“Seems dramatic to me, too, but I believe what Ms. Smith says. Even before this, I felt that there was something

strange about Lucy. This competition is for designers, but she seems to not know much about professional

designing. I wondered how she could enter this competition. Now, I'm beginning to see why. It's possible that she

entered through submitting stolen designs because she does not know how to design herself.”

“I agree with what you say. Yesterday, most of us had already handed in our drafts, but she didn't. When I was

leaving, I deliberately glanced at her design. The design was excellent, but strangely, the strokes were amateurish.

They were totally unlike the strokes of a designer who could come up with such a beautiful design. At that moment,

I wondered what's with the discrepancy. Now I understand that it's because she doesn't know how to design, so she

has stolen someone's idea, resulting in a good design, but bad drawing skills.”

As Lucy listened to the crowd's discussion, her knees were shaking.

She started walking toward the back of the room, attempting to leave the place.

Realizing what her intentions were, the host's eyes narrowed as he immediately ordered, “Block the exits. Do not let

her leave!”

Without a doubt, it was an insult to the organizers when Lucy stole someone else's design and entered the

competition.

If news of this were to leak out, the organizers' reputation and dignity would be destroyed.

Other than that, the organizers would become the laughing stock of the public. In the future, the Design Association

might not permit them to organize such a grand competition again.

After all, the Design Association would question the organizers' competence.

Hence, they could not let Lucy leave no matter what.

If Lucy managed to flee, she might say something to the public.

When the security personnel heard the host's instructions, they positioned themselves at the exits to prevent Lucy

from escaping.

When Lucy turned and saw the two guards at the entrance, she was full of despair.

It's over. I'm done for.

Lucy bit her lip so hard that she nearly drew blood. She was full of regret for what she had done.

She regretted breaking into the fashion design industry which she did not belong, just to compete with Natalie.

If she had not done that, she would not end up in this predicament.

Alas, she was already in this situation, and any feeling of regret was useless.

Lucy knew that she had failed big time.

“Ms. Smith, how did you know that Lucy stole someone else's design?” a participant asked out of curiosity.

Natalie smiled. “It's very simple. It's because I knew Lucy before this, and she is not a designer at all. She had never

studied fashion design, and she has no talent in this area. So, how is such a person able to enter the competition?”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Another participant said, “That's right. Apparently, I guessed correctly that Lucy managed to enter with a design

stolen from someone else.”

Natalie picked up the microphone and said, “Yes. So, out of curiosity, I checked how Lucy entered the competition.

After seeing the designs she had sent in to secure her entry rights, I understood immediately. She had stolen

someone's designs to convince the reviewers that she is worthy. It is actually quite funny because the designs she

stole are actually mine.”

At these words, everyone stared at Lucy in disbelief.

What? The designs that she stole are actually Ms. Smith's?

“Ms. Smith, is this true?” Someone was eager to verify.

Natalie nodded. “Of course, it's true. Take a look, everyone.”

She clicked a few buttons on the laptop screen and everyone saw ten exquisite design drafts appear on the big

screen.
