Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 1536 [Eleven Jewell]

Chris whispered, "He's claiming that Maggie's design..." "Are we just going to believe what he said without seeing any proof? You've worked with Maggie for so many years, yet you still don't know what kind of person she is?"

Chris was stunned upon hearing what Stella said. Then, he tried to defend himself, "What if it turns out to be true? What are we going to do then? I'm just doing this for our company's interests."

Stella ignored him and walked directly to the man who stirred things up. Then, she introduced herself, "I'm the owner of The Velvet, and my last name's Hall. First of all, I'd like to thank you for attending The Velvet's new product launch event today. Secondly, did you mention that our designer is copying someone else's work?

"Plagiarism is a very serious accusation. We have stated that this is our original design, and we would not resort to such methods to deceive the public. If you can provide evidence of the plagiarism committed by our designer with the product showcased today, I'll take the necessary actions. However, if you fail to do so, I'll consider this an intentional act to smear my company's image, and I'll file a lawsuit against you for causing a disturbance."

Chad snorted, "Are you threatening me?"

Stella smiled, "Just a friendly reminder."

Chad retorted in a cold tone, "Do you think I'd make baseless accusations without any proof?"

Then, he raised his phone and continued, "I have our designer's electronic drafts on my phone and the date they were created. Do you dare to put them up on the big screen? nStella stared into Chad's eyes for a moment before turning to Chris and said, "Take this gentleman to the projector."

"Ms. Hall..."

"Now!"

So, Chris had no choice but to bring Chad to the projector and display the drafts on the big screen.

Everyone gasped when they saw the drafts.

"Oh my god, they look so similar!"

"Similar? They're exactly the same!"

"The dates show that they were completed a month ago, and Stella Hall only took over The Velvet for less than a month.

The commemorative gift must have been designed within the past months, which means after the dates shown."

"So, does that mean what the man said is true?"

"Are you serious? I actually like it very much. Even my husband, who doesn't really appreciate jewelry, says it looks good when I wear it."

"Me too, but we can't tolerate it if it's a work of plagiarism.

It's worth nothing. How could they give us trash and expect us to wear it on our body?"

"Let's not jump to conclusions now. The drafts don't really prove anything. The completion date is handwritten and can be easily altered. How can that serve as evidence?"

"But this designer doesn't have a clean record herself. She was accused several times of copying other people's designs when she had a lawsuit with Grandeur Gallery back then. Her designs were compared to the other designers' work, and they looked very similar."

"Let's not make any baseless claims."

"Everyone is talking about the designer, but doesn't anyone think Stella Hall is the problem here? The Velvet's reputation has been so good over the years, and a scandal like this broke out as soon as she took over. She's the one who should be held accountable for."

"That's right. She should've just stayed in her lane. What would an actress possibly know about running a business? She got lucky and found herself to be a member of the Saun family, then rushed into doing business. Look at how things turn out for her now. How embarrassing."

"Stella Hall might not be innocent either. She was probably too eager to revive The Velvet's reputation and used some dirty tricks. Besides, she could easily get out of this trouble if she got someone like Maggie, who had a history of plagiarizing, to do the dirty laundry for her."

Wenham listened to these harsh remarks, and his expression turned extremely unpleasant.

Darcie whispered, "Wenham, let's get the guests out of here. It's better if we handle this matter in private."
