Pregnant on the Cusp of Divorce Chapter 219
There was a heavy and gloomy atmosphere in Holt Jewelry that afternoon.Thaddeus got off work wearily. His eyes lit up slightly as the car passed a restaurant in the city center. The restaurant was small, and their food was just average. He wondered why a picky eater like Jessamine loved the food from this place."Stop the car."Jordan quickly found a place to stop the car, fearing he'd be punished if he was too slow. At this juncture, he dared not upset Thaddeus. He carefully stopped the car on the side of the road.Thaddeus looked outside the window and said, "Buy some empanadas."Jordan wondered why Thaddeus wanted some empanadas. His boss normally never spared a second glance at small restaurants like this one. He also vaguely remembered that Thaddeus didn't like empanadas.He was about to get out of the car when Thaddeus said, "I'll buy it myself."Thaddeus got out of the car, fastened the bottom button of his suit, and strode to the restaurant. He looked handsome and digni

Thomas calmly placed a chess piece as if he hadn't heard the phone ring."Aren't you going to answer that, Grandpa?" Jessamine asked. Thomas paused at her words and rejected the call. Then, he refocused his attention on the chess game. However, the phone rang again.Thomas scoffed, "How annoying. He's still calling me even after I rejected the call. How can he manage a company when he's this dense?"Upon hearing Thomas' words, Jessamine guessed that Thaddeus was the one calling him. She picked up a peanut from the table out of boredom. "You better answer that, Grandpa. It could be something important."Thomas was unhappy at the mention of Thaddeus. "There's no way it could be important. He just wants to blame me for taking his wife away."Jessamine sputtered at his words. Thomas answered the call and asked impatiently, "Why the hell are you calling? You've ruined my good mood."Thaddeus felt resigned. Thomas refused to answer his calls, and when he finally got through to him,

Thaddeus tossed and turned in bed for a long time. Soon, he was sure of one thing. His insomnia was back.He found the sleeping pills that Lana had given him before and took one. Then, he slept in the study.The next day, he was woken up by his phone ringing. "We're in trouble, Mr. Holt." Jordan's voice trembled over the phone."What is it?""The people at Swan contacted me last night. Andromeda, the pendant featured on our official website for the new quarter, is almost identical to the one Lolly designed for Swan," Jordan explained. He continued, "Fortunately, they haven't made the finished product, but they have a prototype. I've compared both designs, and it's difficult to know which one is the original." Lolly was an extraordinary designer. When anyone's design matched the style of her designs, no one would be stupid enough to suspect Lolly of plagiarism. They would only think that others had plagiarized her.Jordan dared not bring up the plagiarism.Thaddeus was so sh

"Mr. Holt, someone as skilled as Lolly wouldn't copy any person's designs. There's only one possibility. Since we've copied her designs, we need to ask the designer about the situation.""Mr. Holt, we don't condone plagiarism. Holt Jewelry has risen to the top because of the excellent jewelry that designers make. We can't discredit their hard work. In so many years, we've never had such a scandal.Thaddeus became angrier as he listened to their words. Of course, he couldn't tolerate plagiarism. Plagiarizing would only invite trouble. However, these people decisively believed that Amy had copied Lolly's designs before they even heard her explanation. He was a little disappointed in them for not trusting the designer he had hired.Everyone started talking again until they heard a voice that made them go quiet. "Mr. Holt, Holt Jewelry's stock market has a limit-down drop."Everyone was stunned hearing the news.Holt Jewelry had more than 100 shares of their stock. If they had a li

Amy returned to her workstation and immediately found the design draft she had hidden. She was glad she hadn't thrown it away. When she presented this design to Holt Jewelry, she never expected anything like this to happen.Since she had the design draft, there was no way anyone else could accuse her of plagiarism. No plagiarist would have the original design draft with them. She was full of confidence, and she wanted to take revenge on those who wanted to watch her suffer.Amy took a photo of the design draft from several angles and posted it on Twitter. Then, she posted the documents and manuscript and declared that she would investigate the rumors against her.She mentioned Holt Jewelry's official account, jewelry appraisers, and Swan's official account in her post. After that, she exited Twitter, satisfied with her work. She never took this little misunderstanding seriously.Her post quickly attracted the attention of many people. Initially, this scandal hadn't spread so quickl

Moreover, Amy unwittingly found this draft in Thaddeus' files and thought the design was amazing. She didn't believe that Lolly designed this pendant.Everyone knew that Thaddeus tried to get Lolly into his employ. He tried tons of methods to find her but to no avail. He had never even met Lolly, proving he had zero connection to her.Therefore, the design draft in his folder couldn't be Lolly's. Swan simply held a press conference to give such an announcement because they were jealous of Amy's work and wanted to shove her into a corner.Amy was fearless. She clocked out of work as usual, feeling even more energetic. Now, she just had to wait for the truth to be revealed and make everyone shoot themselves in the foot. She wanted them to know that this outstanding design was hers. Lolly wasn't the only one who could make such exquisite designs.She strode out of the building, carrying the LV bag she bought last month with her father's money. Her high heels clicked on the ground as

Jordan brought the police and broke up the troublemakers downstairs.Thaddeus didn't go home that night and slept in the lounge in his office. He was alone in the building, destined to spend a restless night.On the other side of the world, it was daytime in Marita. A new press conference was in full swing.Thaddeus couldn't even sleep after receiving the video Jordan shared. Now, all his hopes of sleeping were gone.In the video, the people from Swan took out Lolly's previous design drafts and explained them in detail. In each of Lolly's designs, there was a symbol on the ring of the chain. No one could see it if they didn't pay close attention.The staff showed the symbols to everyone with a magnifying glass. An "L" symbol was clearly shown.After they showed off Lolly's previous works, they took a printed copy of the draft Amy had posted on Twitter and enlarged it. The same symbol was on it. Everyone asked sarcastically, "Is the chief designer of Holt Jewelry trying to shoot

"We hereby declare that Amy Quilton, our chief designer, had committed plagiarism on her own initiative. We have no knowledge of her bad behavior. Since she has violated our company regulations, she has been fired. "Amy Quilton's actions have nothing to do with our company. We ask that you not slander Holt Jewelry's reputation, throw rotten food at our employees, or leave hate messages due to her foolish behavior. If you do, we will take legal measures. Thank you for your time."Everyone agreed with Thaddeus' course of action after reading this apology letter. Those shareholders had long disliked that plagiarist Amy. However, due to her connection with Thaddeus, they dared not voice their dissatisfaction.They were overjoyed when they saw the official statement saying that she had been fired and Holt Jewelry had removed themselves from the scandal. It was a delight to watch. It was heartbreaking to see their stock prices drop, but everyone was happy to see that bitch fired. See
