Chapter 271
Rebecca's slender body trembled slightly when she heard that.
Eden looked at her clothing design on the big screen.
It was a windbreaker. She liked it very much when she was designing it.
It took her one whole week to finish the windbreaker design.
Her gaze was cold when she saw that her designs appeared in someone else's company.
She said lightly, "The windbreaker on the big screen was designed by me on October 1 st and was completed on April 5th. I had to modify it many times during that period. I would usually stay up until 1:30 a m. until my mother knocked on the door and urged me to sleep.
I would only rest that time. All these clothes were designed by me with my heart and soul but you guys easily stole them from me and displayed them here."
Speaking of this, she looked at Rebecca with icy cold eyes. "Rebecca, I believe that it's not appropriate for you to display my work at your company. It's more appropriate to display them in the Alwynn Group."
Eden looked at Rebecca coldly. Her mother once told her to treat others the same way like they treated her. One was born to live happily without prejudice.
Victor's heart ached for Eden when he heard that.
Even though Eden lived in that kind of environment, she still worked hard and never gave up.
However, his heart could not help but ache for her for being so strong!
Therefore, he would never compromise easily on this matter.
Whoever bullied Eden would offend Victor!
Rebecca panicked instantly. However, her expression remained the same. She looked at Eden sullenly and asked word by word angrily, "Do you have any evidence that these clothes were designed by you? Show me the evidence first before you speak, or I will sue you for defamation."
Eden smiled sarcastically and said nonchalantly, "You want evidence? I can give it to you but let's invite the reporters to come in first. I don't want to keep them waiting." Even if she lost her designs for this season, she wanted to expose Rebecca’s true colors.
Rebecca was really shameless to steal other people' s hard efforts.
"Are you threatening me?" Rebecca could no longer maintain her graceful and beautiful composure. She was so agitated by Eden that she showed an ugly and sullen expression on her face.
Eden smiled calmly and said confidently, "I don't dare to threaten you, Rebecca. You are the Madam of the Jotham Alwynn Group but I was just telling the truth."
"Great! You are just a small designer and a woman who uses disgraceful means to get to your position. How dare you to threaten me?"
"Rebecca, it's not a threat but a fact. You are very powerful in River City. You have a noble status and a good reputation in the upper class. Isn't it more despicable for you to do something dishonest?
Besides, you need to have evidence to prove your words. What do you mean when you said that I obtained my position through despicable means?
Rebecca, you can't talk as you like. I've come this far with my own strength. I won't let people bully me for no reason." Eden interrupted Rebecca coldly.
To Rebecca, did the competent people get promoted because they used despicable means?
It was simply ridiculous.
The most hateful people were those who didn't know their personalities very well but still preached to others!
"In the design world, no one would have their design drafts passed in one shot..."
"Well, Mr. Alwynn is here. You can ask him yourself whether my work was passed in one shot because of my ability or because I seduced him.
I believe that everyone would make the right choice when they faced with their own interests. In the design world, the work speaks for itself.
Also, you don't have the right to look down on my lifestyle but you have the right to make up stories!"
"You..." Rebecca was so angry that her whole body trembled. She thought that she was an eloquent person.
However, she didn't expect that Eden was more eloquent than her.
She had never been so humiliated in her life.
Rebecca's face turned red instantly. She was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.
Victor glanced at Lucian.
Lucian nodded and turned on the digital voice recorder. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Riley's confession reached Phillip's ears instantly.
The whole room was silent after the recording had finished playing.
Rebecca and Vincent were extremely embarrassed that they wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.
"Rebecca, give me a clear explanation. What the hell is going on? The work you showed me last night was also passed by me in one shot. Does that mean that it is the designer's fault?" Phillip shouted angrily at the side.
Eden had shown up and she could even tell everyone the dates of her designs. She also had the recording as evidence. It seemed like the matter was true.
Rebecca's heart shivered when she heard Phillip's roar. She said with grievance, "Hubby, listen to me..."
Phillip interrupted her words quickly, "What else do you want to say? I have been doing business all my life but I have never been as humiliated as I am today."
"Dad..."
"Shut up!" Phillip glared at Vincent.
"Both of you have always discussed everything in advance. You are also aware about this matter, aren't you?"
Vincent lowered his head and dared not meet Phillip' s gaze.
"Hmph!" Phillip was so angry that his chest tightened.
"Dad, don't be angry. This may be a misunderstanding." Imogen looked at Phillip worriedly.
Phillip had high blood pressure. He couldn't take this kind of agitation.
"Misunderstanding? Let’s make this misunderstanding worse then! Lucian, ask all the reporters outside to come in. After that, call the police to check Riley's account," Victor said with a wicked smile.
"Mr. Alwynn..." Riley looked at Victor anxiously. Didn't he agree not to call the police?
Rebecca was really anxious when she heard that. Her reputation would be ruined if the matter was exposed. How could she live in the circle in the future!
That b*stard actually had evidence against her. She had been secretly fighting with him for so long but this was the first time she was suppressed by him.
She suddenly changed her expression and said guiltily, "Victor, I didn’t think clearly. Since this is my first time, please forget about it! I will never do this again. After all, we are a family!"
You should think for your father. The Jotham Alwynn Group is the product of your father's lifelong efforts!"
Humph!!
She had encountered many bad guys all this while but she could still deal with every one of them.
She didn't need to worry about dealing with Eden and Victor.
She must not ruin her reputation. She could only control others if she had a better life and was stronger than anyone else.
