FULL NOVELXO Chapter 36
36 Chapter 36: She Plagiarized
The venue instantly fell silent.
They stared blankly at Xaviera Evans, unsure how to
react.
Many people who didn’t know Xaviera whispered among themselves.
“Who is she?”
“I don’t know, never seen her before, but she’s really
beautiful.”
“St*pid, look at the occasion before you start drooling. No matter how beautiful, being brainless is a big
defect!”
Daring to openly question the judges‘ decision, this woman must have lost her mind.
They may not know Xaviera, but that doesn’t mean they don’t know Mag Evans. In the eyes of many students, Mag deserved the first prize.
Caleb Mamet was also startled by Xaviera’s sudden
action. He turned his head to look at her.
Despite causing such a commotion, the woman’s expression remained unchanged. She looked lazy as if she had just woken up, her red l*ps barely curved.
Steve Price swallowed his saliva: “Miss…Miss, she…”
He knew that Xaviera and Mag had conflicts, but Miss should have considered the occasion before trying to humiliate Mag!
The first prize chosen by so many judges was not something an uninvolved student like Xaviera could
question!
Among all the people, only Gaby Rome patted her chest. Thank goodness, her Evans finally showed up.
The unexpected turn of events happened so suddenly that when the host reacted and looked to the
leadership for guidance, he found that school leaders completely ignored him!
The host was dumbfounded.
Mag held the microphone, and after a long silence, her gentle voice echoed through every corner of the
venue.
“Sis, please stop making a scene. I know you really
wanted to win this competition and join the Mamet Corporation to pursue your design dream, but you didn’t even have the courage to participate.”
Mag bit her l*p, as if what she was about to say was quite difficult: “Although you’re my sister, I need to tell you this. As a fashion designer, we need to be innovative and dare to face all difficulties. Only by constantly moving forward can we forge a new era for ourselves as designers.”
Dreams are for everyone, but what we should have more is the courage to step towards our dreams.
Admittedly, Mag’s words were quite powerful, and many students applauded her spontaneously. The applause was thunderous.
Steve Price was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, his brain working quickly to find a solution to the
awkward situation.
In contrast, Xaviera, as the person involved, appeared extremely calm.
At this moment, the school leaders who had been forcefully enlightened by Gaby Rome finally came to their senses. They looked at Xaviera with suspicion
and then discreetly gestured to the host.
In no time, the host went back on stage and cleared his throat: “I’m sorry for the unexpected situation.”
As soon as he spoke, the spotlight shifted to him.
“Excuse me, why do you think Mag Evans doesn’t deserve the first prize?” The host directed the microphone to Xaviera.
He had been ordered to find out the reason for
Xaviera’s questioning of Mag’s title.
“Why? Of course, because…she plagiarized,” Xaviera said leisurely, her posture casual and relaxed.
“What? Plagiarism? Holy crap!”
As designers, the thing they hated the most was plagiarism!
Every design blueprint carried the designer’s hard work. To present other people’s painstaking creations as one’s own was simply shameless!
The venue immediately became noisy.
Mag’s face showed a moment of panic. It’s impossible; she couldn’t have been discovered!
Moreover, she didn’t plagiarize; she merely borrowed inspiration from Miss Lohill’s ideas!
With that thought, she quickly composed herself: “Sis, how could you make up things like this? Do you know how such a statement could ruin me? A designer’s reputation is extremely important; with one sentence, you’re trying to nail me to the pillar of shame…”
Mag choked up.
The host regained his senses and continued questioning without bias: “Mag has a point. Reputation is a designer’s vital asset, so Xaviera Evans, you claim Mag plagiarized—do you have any proof?”
After a pause, he continued: “Although I’m not a student of the College of Fashion Design, I can see that Mag’s design is very innovative and lively, with never–before–seen design elements.”
The moment the host finished speaking, a figure dashed out from backstage: “Of course it’s innovative! That’s because Mag didn’t plagiarize at all!”
Snatching the microphone from Mag, the girl pointed at Xaviera and shouted: “Don’t be fooled by her! She’s Xaviera Evans, the Miss brought back from the
countryside by the Evans family! She doesn’t even know fashion design and was forcibly enrolled in the Libanan University Design College by the Evans family! What does she know about design and plagiarism? She just doesn’t like Mag and wants to embarrass her!”
