Chapter 36: Chapter 36: She Plagiarized
Translator: 549690339
The venue instantly fell silent.
They stared blankly at Xaviera Evans, unsure how to react. Many people who didnât know Xaviera whispered among themselves.
âWho is she?â
âI donât know, never seen her before, but sheâs really beautiful.â
âStupid, look at the occasion before you start drooling. No matter how beautiful, being brainless is a big defect!â
Daring to openly question the judgesâ decision, this woman must have lost her mind.
They may not know Xaviera, but that doesnât mean they donât know Mag Evans. In the eyes of many students, Mag deserved the first prize.
Caleb Mamet was also startled by Xavieraâs sudden action. He turned his head to look at her.
Despite causing such a commotion, the womanâs expression remained unchanged. She looked lazy as if she had just woken up, her red lips barely curved.
Steve Price swallowed his saliva: âMissâŠMiss, sheâŠâo
He knew that Xaviera and Mag had conflicts, but Miss should have considered the occasion before trying to humiliate Mag!
The first prize chosen by so many judges was not something an uninvolved student like Xaviera could question!
Among all the people, only Gaby Rome patted her chest. Thank goodness, her Evans finally showed up.
The unexpected turn of events happened so suddenly that when the host reacted and looked to the leadership for guidance, he found that school leaders completely ignored him!
The host was dumbfounded.
Mag held the microphone, and after a long silence, her gentle voice echoed through every corner of the venue.
âSis, please stop making a scene. I know you really wanted to win this competition and join the Mamet Corporation to pursue your design dream, but you didnât even have the courage to participate.â
Mag bit her lip, as if what she was about to say was quite difficult: âAlthough youâre my sister, I need to tell you this. As a fashion designer, we need to be innovative and dare to face all difficulties. Only by constantly moving forward can we forge a new era for ourselves as designers.â
Dreams are for everyone, but what we should have more is the courage to step towards our dreams.
Admittedly, Magâs words were quite powerful, and many students applauded her spontaneously. The applause was thunderous.
Steve Price was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, his brain working quickly to find a solution to the awkward situation.
In contrast, Xaviera, as the person involved, appeared extremely calm.
At this moment, the school leaders who had been forcefully enlightened by Gaby Rome finally came to their senses. They looked at Xaviera with suspicion and then discreetly gestured to the host.
In no time, the host went back on stage and cleared his throat: âIâm sorry for the unexpected situation.â
As soon as he spoke, the spotlight shifted to him.
âExcuse me, why do you think Mag Evans doesnât deserve the first prize?â The host directed the microphone to Xaviera.
He had been ordered to find out the reason for Xavieraâs questioning of Magâs title.
âWhy? Of course, becauseâŠshe plagiarized,â Xaviera said leisurely, her posture casual and relaxed.
âWhat? Plagiarism? Holy crap!â
As designers, the thing they hated the most was plagiarism!
Every design blueprint carried the designerâs hard work. To present other peopleâs painstaking creations as oneâs own was simply shameless!
The venue immediately became noisy.
Magâs face showed a moment of panic. Itâs impossible; she couldnât have been discovered!
Moreover, she didnât plagiarize; she merely borrowed inspiration from Miss Lohillâs ideas!
With that thought, she quickly composed herself: âSis, how could you make up things like this? Do you know how such a statement could ruin me? A designerâs reputation is extremely important; with one sentence, youâre trying to nail me to the pillar of shameâŠâ
Mag choked up.
The host regained his senses and continued questioning without bias: âMag has a point. Reputation is a designerâs vital asset, so Xaviera Evans, you claim Mag plagiarizedâdo you have any proof?â
After a pause, he continued: âAlthough Iâm not a student of the College of Fashion Design, I can see that Magâs design is very innovative and lively, with never-before-seen design elements.â
The moment the host finished speaking, a figure dashed out from backstage:
âOf course itâs innovative! Thatâs because Mag didnât plagiarize at all!â
Snatching the microphone from Mag, the girl pointed at Xaviera and shouted: âDonât be fooled by her! Sheâs Xaviera Evans, the Miss brought back from the countryside by the Evans family! She doesnât even know fashion design and was forcibly enrolled in the Libanan University Design College by the Evans family! What does she know about design and plagiarism? She just doesnât like Mag and wants to embarrass her!â
