On the other side of the globe, Natalie had known about Sam's arrest from Shane. Hearing that, she was sincerely
happy for him.
After all, he had finally avenged his parents.
The only uncertainty was whether Sean would make an appearance.
By now, he had probably learned about Sam's arrest and the fact that Shane had found the will.
Perhaps he would show up, though not because of Sam but the share transfer agreement in the will.
Speaking of that, it was truly shocking that Shane's mother actually left the company that was part of her dowry to
Sean instead of her son, Shane.
Both Natalie and Shane were exceedingly curious to know the answer, but there was none to be found when Sean
remained in hiding.
“Nat, the organizer of the competition is calling all designers for a meeting.” Right then, a knock sounded on the
door, and Sally's voice drifted in.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie walked over and opened the door. “A meeting?”
“Yup.” Sally nodded fervently with glee written all over her face. “I heard that Calandra has been apprehended, so
the meeting is probably about that.”
Natalie's eyes narrowed a fraction when she heard that. In the next moment, the corners of her mouth lifted. “Got
it. I'll go over right away.”
“Come back after the meeting and update me, okay?” Sally urged.
After grunting in assent, Natalie went downstairs.
Soon, she arrived at the competition venue.
When she reached, almost all the other designers were already there.
She simply chose a seat and plopped down.
Shortly after, the meeting started.
Sure enough, Sally was right in that the meeting was about Calandra's arrest.
Apparently, Calandra was arrested in a hotel. Perhaps she had known that she would be apprehended, for she went
willingly when she was nabbed.
When she was interrogated after having been taken to the police station, she didn't deny anything either. Instead,
she honestly told the police everything.
It turned out that Jasmine inadvertently got dirt on her and blackmailed her into doing the design for her. It was all
so that she could quickly make a name for herself in the design industry.
Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea, Calandra had no choice but to concede.
In the previous rounds of competition, Jasmine conveyed the theme to Calandra, who was hiding somewhere in the
competition hall via stud earrings equipped with Bluetooth. When Calandra was done with the design, she would use
holographic projection and project the blueprint onto her glasses.
It was a newfangled technology that wasn't yet widely available in the market, so many people were still unaware of
it. Actually, Jasmine got those glasses from Calandra.
With the stud earrings and glasses, she copied the blueprint exactly and remained in the competition thus far.
“Ah, so that was how she did it. No wonder she always wore those glasses during the competition though she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmusually doesn't wear them.” After Sally had listened to the contents of the meeting Natalie related upon returning to
the villa, she finally understood everything.
Natalie took a sip of her fruit juice. “Yeah, who would've thought that she has such an advanced method of
cheating. Because of this incident, the organizer added a new rule—the jewelry, glasses, and buttons of all
designers are to be examined. Only when it was certain that they were fine would they be allowed into the
competition.”
“That's essential to prevent anyone else from doing the same thing.” Sally nodded in agreement.
Chuckling, Natalie added, “Besides, Calandra has also confessed that it was her who knocked you out outside the
security room back then, not Tiffanie. At the same time, she also revealed that it was Jas... I mean, Jessie, who
locked me in the washroom.”
“Are you serious?” Sally's eyes widened in delight.
Natalie nodded in affirmation. “Yup. As for your compensation for having been knocked out by Calandra, it will be
paid by the organizer, who will later wire the money to you.”
“The money doesn't matter. Most importantly, I want to know Calandra and Jessie's fates,” Sally asserted.
Taking another sip of fruit juice, Natalie replied, “Jessie has been locked up, but I can't tell you where exactly. As for
Calandra, her punishment will be light since she was under duress. At most, her reputation will suffer. But then
again, she never had much of a reputation to speak of, so it won't affect her much.”
