Chapter 374 A Billion Dollars in Compensation

As Jessica finished speaking, she turned around slowly. She was still smiling, highlighting her

gentleness and friendliness.

However, this time, Grace wasn’t deceived by her appearance. She got straight to the point. Ms.

Landon, don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”

Upon hearing this, Jessica burst into laughter.

She spread her hands and said, “Explanation? What explanation? Aren’t you here to discuss the

compensation with me?

“You copied so much of my work. You should have made quite a bit of money over the years. I heard

your boutique business is doing well, so compensating a bit of money shouldn’t be a problem, right?

“Or do you not want to compensate me? Do you want to go through legal procedures? I’m happy to do

that.”

Grace stared coldly at Jessica, not understanding where she got her confidence. She said word by

word, “I didn’t plagiarize.”

A simple sentence expressed her attitude and stance.

Jessica smiled. “Who would believe that? The facts are right there. Why are you still denying, Ms.

Lewis?”

Grace calmly said, “You and I both know the truth. I’m just curious. Where did you get the drafts?”

Jessica took a deep breath. “Ms. Lewis, your plagiarism is a fact. Why bother explaining so much? As

for the drafts, I drew them myself, of course. Also, I drew them many years before you.”

“That’s impossible.”

Grace pressed her lips together, trying hard to stay calm.

Jessica said straightforwardly, “It seems you’re still not going to admit it. That’s okay. I can provide

evidence for you to see.”

Saying that, she called over someone who brought a stack of design drafts. The clothing designs on

them were astonishingly similar to Grace’s designs.

However, the signing date on the design drafts was seven years ago, and the paper of the drafts did

appear genuinely aged.

“See that, Ms. Lewis?”

Grace’s eyes were filled with astonishment and disbelief. She stood there, stunned.

How could this be possible?

Jessica continued, “I won’t say much else. Let’s talk about compensation, and perhaps there’s still

room for negotiation.

“If you don’t want to discuss compensation, that’s fine too. But you should be prepared to face a joint

boycott from the design community.”

Grace snorted. “Is that so? You can twist the truth. Are you so confident that I won’t find evidence?”

Unyielding, Jessica met her gaze. “Do you think anyone would believe you? With my current reputation

across the globe, defeating you is like crushing an ant. What do you have to compete with me?”

Grace wanted to say something, but Xander stopped her.

He had an expressionless face as he said icily, “Speak up. What do you want? Or should I say, how

much do you want?”

Jessica looked at Xander. He exuded a strong presence and looked like an elite. Seeing him made her

eyes light up.

Gradually, her interest was piqued.

However, the current situation didn’t allow her to have other thoughts.

“A billion dollars. I want one billion dollars. I don’t think this should be a big problem for you, Ms. Lewis.

As long as you bring one billion dollars in cash to me, I can consider not pursuing this matter any

further.”
