Snatched A Billionaire To Be My Husband by Shabi's pen

Chapter 191 The So-Called Truth

Upon seeing Cora’s confident expression, Arnold already had

a suspicion in his heart about what might be going on.

However, Jane was the person he had protected and cared for since childhood, and he wouldn’t let

anyone ruin her. So, he

immediately retaliated against Cora.

At that moment, Cora’s eyes turned red with anger. Flora knew that Cora had wronged, and it might

lead her to engage in a fierce confrontation with those bullying her. However, Cora wasn’t sure if Flora

would fight back fiercely, at least for now. One thing was clear to Cora. Arnold was pressuring Cora

with her involvement.

If Cora exposed Jane in public as planned, the Yoris family would make things difficult for Flora since

she lived in their hospital. Her life would be at their mercy.

Yet, Cora couldn’t deny that Flora was indeed her weakness now. She couldn’t simply ignore her.

So she had to swallow her frustration. “In the end, you’re all just taking advantage of the fact that I have

no one to back me up.”

She wasn’t the kind to wait for pity as a naive and innocent

woman. After uttering those words, she quickly left the venue, determined not to let anyone witness her

vulnerability and

tears.

As for Byron…

For him, whether Cora plagiarized or not didn’t make much difference. After all, Jane was his nominal

wife, and they were in the same interest group. He would naturally side with Jane, just like Arnold and

the others.

So, Cora didn’t hold any hope for Byron and didn’t want to focus on this matter any longer.

The event host was also at a loss. He never expected the award ceremony would turn into such a

chaotic situation. He hesitated. “So, what about this award?”

His thoughts were simple. Why not let the person who allegedly plagiarized come to the stage and

receive the award? Though this awardee seemed dubious, it was the quickest and most appropriate

way to handle the situation for

now.

As per Jane’s scheme, once Cora stormed off in frustration, Darren would proceed with a similar

proposition, just as she intended.

However, they didn’t expect Byron, who had remained silent throughout the award ceremony, to take

the microphone from

the host amid the controversy.

“Just based on the words of two old men, you recklessly

stamped the label of plagiarism on someone. The

Woodcarving Association’s award ceremony is truly arbitrary

and capricious. Maybe it’s better to cancel such competitions

in the future,” Byron announced coldly.

Byron’s words ignited a fresh round of commotion in the room.

The host couldn’t even maintain a smile anymore. He thought he was the one hosting a competition,

but how did it turn into a scene straight from hell?

Arnold and Darren were equally stunned, never expecting Byron, who was expected to be delighted to

attend the award ceremony for Jane, would disregard his prestige and openly challenge the fairness of

the competition.

But the fact was that Byron made his statement and promptly left, leaving the Woodcarving Association

members confused, unable to defend their position.

Jane was completely surprised by Byron’s unexpected defense of Cora, disregarding even the

reputation of their Yoris family. She couldn’t conclude whether this turn of events meant

victory or defeat in their calculated game.

The award ceremony finally came to an end amidst sighs and

whispers.

Arnold later found Cora on the rooftop of the convention

center.

It was Arnold who asked Cora for a meet-up. After all, she was his disciple, and despite everything, he

still felt guilty about pressuring her for Jane’s sake.

He wanted to apologize to Cora and find out what had

happened.

However, when Arnold faced Cora, he found himself at a loss for words. “Cora, today…”

Cora saw Arnold struggle to find the right words, so she decided to be straightforward. “I’m feeling

upset today. I didn’t plagiarize. I’ve been trapped and forced to accept the accusations because my

mother lives in the Yoris family’s hospital.”

As she spoke, Cora avoided looking directly at Arnold and instead gazed into the distance where the

lights flickered.

The biting wind made Cora’s face sting, and her hair blew in all directions.

She wore a striking black evening gown that night, with a deep blue overcoat that made her appear

slender and petite.

The wind was so strong that she appeared as if she could be blown away at any instant.

“I’m not trying to threaten you. I just thought we could talk it out without having to do it in front of all

these people.”

Arnold attempted to salvage the situation, but Cora couldn’t help but laugh.

“Do you fear that your granddaughter’s reputation might be tarnished? What about my reputation? Am I

destined to bear the label of a plagiarist and live under constant scrutiny?” Cora retorted.

“I…”

Arnold wanted to refute her, but he found himself at a loss for

words.

If Arnold could turn back time, he would still stand up for Jane

without hesitation.

Seeing Arnold hesitate, Cora smiled wistfully.

“Forget it. Let’s not dwell on the past. All I know is that this situation has left me deeply hurt. So, I don’t

want to continue

being your apprentice, Arnold. Please remove me from your

list.”

It was also the reason Cora was willing to meet Arnold in person. She wanted to put an end to their

mentor-disciple relationship.

After finished talking, Cora turned around and walked away. Arnold watched her shadow gradually

receding. He would like to say something to persuade her several times, but he didn’t

know where to start.

Cora had taken a few steps and suddenly stopped. “Though I know it won’t change anything, I still want

to clarify the inspiration for my work. Dream Home was the old mansion of the Lane family. No matter

how creative Dr. Yoris might be, she couldn’t possibly carve out the old Lane family mansion

like mine.”

Arnold’s eyes visibly flickered in shock.
