Chapter 999 Press Conference

Before entering the press conference scene, Besse was indeed hesitant, knowing what would happen next if she stepped through this door. Even though she wanted to end this matter as soon as possible, she didn't intend to use the most embarrassing way for her.

She was right standing outside the door. As everyone's gaze was on Phantom inside, no one noticed her. Probably, they wouldn't have thought that she would have come to the scene.

In the middle of the hall, designer Phantom was sitting there, surrounded by many reporters. Conceivably, this news was valuable.

Phantom began with a crying voice, "I didn't want to go this far, but there is a line! I don't want other original designers to encounter my current situation, it will be frustrating and uncomfortable. So today, I stand here and decide to hold this case of Besse's plagiarism from my work to the end. Even if I may have offended capital, I must defend myself for the rights of all original designers!"

The words were spoken with an air of awe. It won the favour of the crowd at the scene.

"It has been more than a day since the outbreak of plagiarism, Miss Phantom. Have you received any apologies from Besse?"

"No, I haven't. I want Karami to publicly apologize for their actions and take down the 'Angel' series that was copied from my designs. I also want them to compensate me for the damages they have caused to my reputation and business. For them, I'm a nobody. But they indeed stole my designs. They don't think it's a big deal. Anyways, if it plays itself out as time goes by, they won't pay anything." Phantom replied firmly.

"We will help you defend your rights to the end. As long as Karami doesn't respond positively and handle this matter properly, we'll give continuous coverage about this." Said a reporter.

"Thank you for your support." Phantom appeared very moved. "I have planned to protect my rights through legal means, and I will not shrink back."

"What kind of compensation do you want, Miss Phantom?"

"I never thought about the compensation. But through this lawsuit, I hope to have Karami take the 'Angel' series off the shelves. I worked hard to design the 'Angel' series, and although it got no clout at that time, it shouldn't be used by others for nothing. Of course, I also hope to receive a formal apology from Karami and its designer, Besse, which is the respect I deserve as the original designer."

"We support you!" The reporters echoed.

"Thank you very much."

"Miss Phantom, I have a question for you."

"Yes, please." Phantom showed a very friendly demeanour.

"I have looked at all your designs, from your first participation in a design competition to the current clothing design, and I have studied them carefully. Your designs are very different from the 'Angel series. It can be said that your style is conspicuous in other series, but only the 'Angel' series has no trace of it. Of course, I am not questioning anything, I just want to ask, how did you design such a unique series at that time?"

A hint of panic flashed in Phantom's eyes.

She acted very confidently and answered, "Actually, to be honest with you, before designing the 'Angel' series, I participated in many design competitions and published works, and they were all awarded for excellence. And of course, it took a lot of failures to get there. Therefore, when I was so upset, I put aside everything I had before and planned to change my style. After a month of lockdown, I finished the 'Angel' series."

Everyone seemed very interested in listening to her story.

Phantom continued, "However, after spending so much time and abandoning all of my original design concepts and methods, I didn't expect to participate in the competition with it, and didn't receive any award. It was published in the magazine because there were no materials in the design weekly at that time. So I didn't take a penny of the copyright fee and just gave it to them. So they finally publish it. After that, I did completely abandon this design concept. At that time, what I was thinking was that I still had to do what I was good at and that I wouldn't take the risk to change my style."

"Sorry to hear about that, you should have suffered a great blow." One of the reporters said with some sympathy.

"That's it. If your work is recognized by the market, you can leap to fame, or it's unbearable." Said she with some discomfort.

"You can't keep your real talent down forever. I believe you'll get what you deserve shortly!"

"I'll take your word for it."

"So Miss Phantom, I wanted to ask..."

"Besse?!" A surprised voice suddenly sounded from the hall.

Besse stood at the door and was startled for a second by this voice. She thought no one had noticed her. She turned around to leave. At that moment, all of the reporters rushed towards her.

She should have just left directly. appearing so blatantly here would easily attract attention. But since the news involved her, she found it difficult to leave directly. Her momentary indulgence had led to this situation now.

"Why did you come here, Miss Besse?"

"Did you come here to threaten Miss Phantom after hearing about their press conference?"

"No matter how powerful your backers are behind you, we will support Phantom's rights!" "Besse! What exactly did you come here for?"

Countless questions came at her all at once, as Besse coldly looked at them without saying anything. Oscar's bodyguard stood beside him with an alert expression, watching out for any danger towards Besse while secretly reporting on their current situation and asking whether they needed to forcibly remove Besse from there or not. Oscar replied with a temporary no; as long as there was no harm done, everything should be fine but his bodyguard remained on standby, just in case something happened unexpectedly again later on.

"Besse please answer us!" The reporters' voices grew louder but still received no response from Besse, who only slightly moved her eyes when she saw Phantom walk down from the stage. That caused even more commotion among everyone present.
