Chapter 394 Presented on a Silver Platter

Grace was utterly confused. Who was he?

Why did he feel so familiar, especially with that faint scent of sandalwood on him?

It seemed like she had smelled it somewhere before,

And what had he meant by that?

Had Jessica sent him? But Grace didn’t feel like he seemed to have any ill intentions.

She looked around. Her mind was clouded with even more questions.

“Grace, what’s wrong?”

Callum hurried over, panting slightly. He had been startled when Grace had suddenly run into the

crowd, so he had quickly gotten out of the car and followed her.

Grace grabbed his arm and asked, “Did you see that man?”

Callum was confused.

“What man? Did someone mess with you? Tell me, I’ll sort it out.” He got ready to take action.

But Grace shook her head.

“No. It was just a strange man. He looked…”

Grace thought for a while but couldn’t accurately describe the man’s appearance.

Callum looked around and didn’t notice anyone suspicious, so he thought Grace might have

been mistaken.

“Are you

tired? Do you want to rest in the car?”

Grace pursed her lips, still looking rather tense. Finally, she nodded. She took a few steps and then

suddenly thought of something.

That scent was similar to that of the man who had saved her in the basement parking lot in

Frenda.

His build and the unique scent all matched. It must be him!

Grace was certain, but who was he exactly? And why had he said those words to her?

“Gracie, I’ve found some information.” Xander’s words interrupted Grace’s thoughts.

She looked up, asking, “What?”

Xander handed her the laptop. “Here, take a look.”

On the screen were several photos, and Grace’s eyes lit up.

“I’ve investigated Jessica, and I couldn’t find any information about her plastic surgery in any of the

hospitals in Coronia. That means she must have gotten rid of those traces beforehand.”

“But I found a history of articles on Coronia University’s public account that include your design.”

A relieved smile appeared on Grace’s face. She pointed to the design in the photo.

“This is the design I was accused of plagiarizing. This is the original draft of that design!”

Xander nodded and said, “I’m still not sure why your design wasn’t recorded in the archives, but they

must not have thought that the school’s public account would have a record of your design.”

“Xander, I can prove my innocence now.”

Grace took out her phone and snapped a photo. “I’ll send this photo to Zoey once I return home and

have her arrange for it to be on the front page for a week.”

She was overjoyed. It felt like she had finally broken through the darkness and seen daylight.

With this evidence, she could refute the allegations that her boutique had plagiarized someone else’s

design.

Jessica would no longer be able to extort a billion dollars from her. Then, her purpose for this trip would

be accomplished.

Grace thought it felt surreal. She had come to Coronia overwhelmed with doubts and had experienced

several twists and turns. And now she had found a breakthrough so easily.

It seemed a little too easy. She felt suspicious.

“Xander, is this the truth?”
