At 6:00 a.m., Zachary got his hands on everything Henry had gathered these past few days. He went through pictures of Joey's scribbles he took last night and laid out the design drafts Henry had compiled.Joey's scribbles featured various small patterns, and Zachary meticulously compared them to the ones on Chloe's previous design drafts.When he came across the identical crane illustration, Zachary placed his phone on the design draft and scrutinized it closely.Joey's play with light and shadow on the crane was a dead match for Chloe's version in her old design drafts.The play of light and shadow served as a significant indicator of one's artistic talent. It would be impossible for Joey to quickly emulate the essence of Chloe's design, no matter how gifted she may be.Zachary squinted and continued flipping through the design drafts, searching for similarities. As time passed, he continued the comparative analysis.Zachary picked up the last design draft and compared it with J

Henry passed the phone to Zachary. Kent was a bit annoyed. He wondered why he didn't get to watch the video when he was right next to Henry.As Henry approached Zachary, the video started playing. Kent quickly crowded in to get a better view. The video had a sensational title."Shocking! Big-shot designer caught being a master copycat! Design and clothes? All faked with an assistant's hand!"In the video, Joey came out of Selena's room holding partially finished garments. However, the garments she secretly took back to Selena's room the next day had magically turned into complete outfits.It happened for three days straight. As the video wrapped up with a dark screen, the hum of a sewing machine filled the air. When the sewing machine fell silent, Joey's voice emerged from the same spot."There's still a lot of details to finish up. I'll take these back to the room and work a bit more. You should get some rest.""It's quite late already, and there are still two days left. Why the

Jerome shot a glance at Uriah before speaking."According to Ms. Fisher and Ms. Porter, we should collaborate to remove individuals like Ms. Linton and Ms. Sanders, who deceive the public from the program team."His words left no room for doubt about where he stood with Selena and Joey. Zachary's gaze landed on Selena. "What do you have to say?""I want to stress that the video content is entirely false. Mr. Gray should be able to verify that, right? "And let's not forget, I wasn't keen on joining in the first place, but you coerced me into signing a contract. Now, you're damaging my reputation. I need an explanation," Selena asserted, chin lifted and eyes piercing.Zachary narrowed his eyes. Despite knowing Chloe was a part of this program team, Selena's attitude seemed too bold. Could it be that she and Joey had seen this coming?Zachary asked, "What's your take on this?"Selena looked at Joey. Joey stepped forward, her gaze as calm as a still lake. "I'll be speaking on b

Joey was in a bad mood as she returned to Selena's room. She saw her spacing out on the couch. Upon hearing the sound of the door closing, Selena snapped out of her reverie. She immediately looked at Joey. "What did he say?""He said he'll have Julia apologize. We'll carry on as planned, but I don't want to let it go like this." Joey sat by Selena's side. There was a coldness in her blue eyes. Selena looked at her. Her gaze slowly grew cold too. "You want to go against Julia? Won't Zachary take his anger out on Emmen?""Selena, don't you think that we're manipulated by Zachary and Julia because we've been afraid of this situation all along? There's no point in constantly tolerating this. It wouldn't solve anything," Joey said calmly.Selena slowly calmed down. She said softly, "You're right.""Let's wait for the results from the production team. Once it's out, we'll start the next phase of the plan, but you'll have to be prepared to lose your money."Upon hearing this,

Zachary walked in. He first glanced at Joey. He then turned to face Julia who was behind him and said, "Speak."Julia stepped out from behind him. She looked at Joey and then at Selena, and yelled, "Selena, I'm very sorry! I honestly didn't know what Ms. Porter had done. When I talked about this bag, she seemed to like it a lot so I sold it to her at a lower price. I never thought that she would resell it at its original price …"Allie bit her lip and said nothing. Joey guessed that she probably wanted to take the blame on her own."Well, I quite like the watch on your wrist too. Will you sell it to me at a lower price?" Selena asked suddenly as she laughed.The watch was a birthday gift from Zachary. There was no way she would sell it. Julia bit her lip. Tears fell from her eyes immediately. They stained her face, painting a pitiful picture. "Selena, I got anxious and angry this morning because I like you. I apologize for what I said this morning, but I promise that I didn't
