Chapter 372 Exposed for Plagiarism

Grace smiled as she explained, “You might not belleve it, but she was having lunch with Susan today.

They seemed quite close.”

“No way! Your ex-mother-in-law? Does she want Benjamin to marry Jessica?”

Smiling, Grace raised an eyebrow and didn’t continue the topic. “Thanks, babe. I’ll treat you to dinner

another day.”

“Sure thing. I’ll get back to work.”

After ending the call, Grace put Jessica’s business card away. Although she and Jessica had little

interaction, she had a faint premonition that they would meet again.

And her premonition was correct.

Just a few days later, she received a call from Emily. “Babe, we’ve got a problem.”

“What’s wrong? Don’t be anxious. Take your time to explain.”

“Quickly check your phone. Someone has accused several classic dresses from our boutique of

plagiarism. The topic is currently the top trending topic.”

Grace thought it was absurd. She went on Twitter and clicked on the trending list.

As expected, the name of her boutique was displayed at the top, and the word “plagiarism” stood out.

Since the boutique’s business had always been good and it had a broad target audience, it had many

loyal customers and fans. As a result, after being reported, the topic gained significant

attention.

“Oh my God! That classic dress is my favorite in their store. I never thought it was a copy.”

“It’s not just one dress. It’s multiple dresses copied, all from the same designer. Doesn’t the designer

feel ashamed?”

“How can the designer feel ashamed? If she had any shame, she wouldn’t have done such a thing.”

“Originality is God. Plagiarists should be nailed to the pillar of shame. This store should close down as

soon as possible.”

As Grace read the overwhelming criticism online, her heart sank. But this wasn’t the end.

“Grace, someone is causing trouble at the store, shouting for us to close down and get out of the mall.”

Grace quickly said, “Don’t worry. Close the store for now. I’ll handle this matter.”

After hanging up, Grace stood up to leave.

Luke hurriedly asked, “Ms. Lewis, what happened? Where are you going?”

Grace didn’t have time to explain. She just said, “Cancel all my appointments for today.”

Then, she left the company.

She went straight to the mall. As expected, the storefront was already crowded with people. Some

even held red spray paint and wrote “shameful plagiarists” on the closed door.

Even though the mall security tried to drive them away, they didn’t disperse.

At the same time, Xander also rushed over. Seeing Grace outside the crowd, he pulled her over

worriedly. “Gracie, are you okay?”

Exhausted, Grace lifted her eyes and looked at Xander. Finally, her eyes Xander, I didn’t plagiarize.”

me focused. ”

Though it was only one sentence, Xander felt his heart ache at her words. He embraced her. “I know. I

believe you. But this matter isn’t that simple. We have to handle it carefully.”

His words gave Grace the strength she needed to pull herself together. “We must investigate the truth

of this matter and not endure such injustice.”

She quickly called Emily and left the mall with Xander.

Later, Emily rushed to the top-floor office at Futurelink. She handed over the information she had found

to Grace.
