"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
The employee elevator opened, and the people waiting outside the door went inside. In just a few seconds, the elevator was packed.Amy looked at the crowded elevator unhappily. She had shown her authority in the company, and everyone always made way for her. It was bad enough that they didn't greet her now, but they actually left her standing outside the elevator door without letting her in.She waited by the elevators for almost ten minutes before she managed to squeeze into one, holding the lunch box in her hand. She first arrived at the design department. Yvonne walked in with a cup of coffee, brushing past Amy as she walked to her workstation.Amy and Yvonne were usually close. Therefore, she was confused about why Yvonne didn't greet her."Yvonne, get me a cup of coffee with less sugar and no ice," Amy instructed, following behind Yvonne.Unexpectedly, Yvonne put her coffee at her desk and chuckled, "Amy, you can pack your cups and go home. You can't have the company's coff
The announcement detailing Andromeda's release was now replaced with an apology letter.As Amy read the apology letter carefully, she felt suffocated. It took her a while to realize she had been fired from the company. What hurt her the most was that Thaddeus didn't notify her or send her an email to terminate the contract. Instead, he simply released a statement on the official website.The apology letter even stated that she had plagiarized. By doing this, the entire design industry would know about her scandal. In other words, her career was over.Amy tightly gripped her mouse with her right hand. She was stunned, as if her soul had left her body.She didn't believe that Thaddeus would do this to her. He was the one who recruited her to Holt Jewelry and handed her the employment contract. He even told her, "Amy, Holt Jewelry will be even better with you joining us."However, now that a scandal had befallen them, he had abandoned her. Why? Why did he change his tune?Amy wa
Amy's tearful rant didn't phase Thaddeus in the slightest. "Amy, you should be asking yourself if you've worked so hard just to give me a plagiarized design. Holt Jewelry doesn't need a plagiarist, and we don't resort to such despicable means. "Ask yourself this. How would you feel if someone took credit for something you made before you even published it?"Amy cried even more. She didn't think she was at fault. "Ted, why are you taking someone else's side? We've been childhood friends for over a decade!""Amy, be reasonable. I'm talking about your act of plagiarism. Your actions have upset me. Why did you plagiarize?""Do you hate me now? I've dragged Holt Jewelry's name through the mud. I'm sorry…"Thaddeus was speechless. They weren't on the same wavelength at all.Amy's face was wet with tears. Her eyeliner was also smudged, making her look like a panda.Thaddeus didn't dare to say anything harsh. He kept reasoning with her and advising her, fearing that she would try to ki
