Jason staggered, pointing at Xaviera Evans and bellowed, âWhere did you get that video from? Xaviera! It was you who plagiarized my work! Not only do you refuse to apologize, but now youâre also framing me with false evidence! I wonât let you succeed!â
âIâve been in the design industry for so many years, when have I ever plagiarized? I have my own skills, why would I need to plagiarize? You, on the other hand, are a newcomer. How could you possibly design such perfect work? It defies common sense!â
âIt was you who plagiarized me!â
Zara Woods went pale, and the bootlicker, Jake Lindsey, quickly intervened, âXaviera, Mr. Jason has substantial evidence of publishing the design in a magazine, while you only brought out a video. That cannot serve as evidence. Besides, even if you drew this design, it doesnât necessarily mean it was four years ago, you might have just drawn it yesterday to clear your name by changing the time.â
Doubts began to rise among the crowd. After all, in this advanced age of technology, what isnât possible?
Yet if they wanted to ascertain whether the timestamp was tampered with, all they would need is an expert to examine it.
Should Xaviera have indeed hired a skilled hacker to alter the time on a video, that wouldnât be too difficult for them. And they couldnât possibly accuse someone based on a single video.
Regardless of anything, Jason had substantial evidence, whereas Xavieraâs evidence was just a video that lacked in persuasive power.
Jasonâs face softened for a moment before he angrily roared, âXaviera! You didnât only plagiarize but also tried to frame me! Someone like you has no right to call themselves a designer!â
Zara wore a pained expression, âXaviera, why would you do this? Itâs not too late to admit your mistake. I can still use my status to help you in the design community. However, if you continue to be stubborn, you wonât have a place in the design world. Please, donât be so senseless!â
Xaviera, however, did not seem bothered. Instead, she smiled mysteriously, âIndeed, a single video cannot serve as compelling evidence. However, Mr. Jason, you likely didnât anticipate, this is only half of my design.â
Jasonâs face changed instantly.
Everyone else was puzzled too. What did she mean by half of the design?
The design seemed complete, and Xaviera had already produced the finished works too. They had seen the pieces, and they were indeed perfect.
Jason scoffed, âXaviera! Do you think itâs amusing to concoct such a lie to clear your name? Everyone can see that the design is complete and lacks nothing!â
However, a sense of dread crept into Zaraâs heart. Half the design? Could there be another copy?
âMr. Jason, the jewelry does indeed represent only half as the other half comprises menâs watches and accessories!â>
Xavieraâs voice was icy and her words precise, âI drew this design four years ago, itâs called âEndless Loveâ, symbolizing everlasting love. Mr. Jason, if you claim to be the originator of this jewelry, shouldnât you also have another design?â
What?
Was there another design?
Jasonâs body stiffened as he hastily stood up, screaming in panic, âYouâre spouting nonsense!â
Right as his words faded away, an image reappeared on the large screen.
Everyone looked up to see the screen clearly showing the designer completing the set of jewelry, then proceeding to design menâs watches and accessories. The patterns and details on the watches perfectly corresponded with the womenâs jewelry.
Jason watched this scene in disbelief.
Xaviera coldly glanced at him, âMr. Jason, although I donât know how you managed to steal my design sketch, who gave you the audacity to publish it in a magazine unchanged? You even named this jewelry âAutumn Romanceâ, yet didnât know that I named it âEndless Love.â
âThe reason why it is named so is that there are corresponding patterns inside, integrating both menâs and womenâs designs. So, Mr. Jason, can you show me the design for the other set?â
âIf you really were the original creator, then could you please tell me why there is a semicircular ruby in the middle of the womenâs jewelry set? Could you share your thoughts?â
