Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband
Chapter 190

Chapter 190 The Final Result

Soon, the pictures of work No. 7 were put on the big screen, and people started talking about it. "They look exactly the same from certain angles. Look at the flower in the upper right corner!"

"The cottages in the lower left corner are also pretty much the same.”

Cora was overwhelmed by the heated discussion and could no longer care whether Byron believed her. Astonished, she looked at the wood carving that was pretty much the same as hers. How could they be so similar?

She would also have doubts if she hadn't spent days and nights carefully carving her own work.

But there was only one explanation for this. Someone plagiarized her work!

"Everyone, have you thought that maybe someone plagiarized my work?" Cora quickly calmed down.

Since the Lane family fell, she had learned to stay calm and fight for her own justice.

"You are obscure in the field of wood cutting. Who would plagiarize your work?" Darren retorted. "It's true that I'm obscure, but I can guarantee with my honor that I didn't plagiarize. And I demand the author of work No. 7 to stand out and prove it for me.”

Although facing a doubtful audience, Cora stood dignified on the stage.

Then, Jane stood up. "No. 7 is my work."

Seeing Jane stand up, Cora frowned because she realized this was probably a trap.

"However, I carved this work all by myself, and I didn't copy anyone's idea.”

Jane glanced at Cora and continued, "Also, I consulted with Mr. Connor at the beginning of creation and then completed it under the watch of my grandfather Sir Yoris. Both of them are my witnesses!" Arnold frowned when he heard Jane's words.

Actually, in order to avoid suspicion of unfairness in this competition, Arnold did not see the works of Cora or Jane and told them to do their best to complete their works.

Darren also had an apprentice participating in the competition, so he did not serve as a judge for this competition.

But now that something like this happened, Arnold and Darren were still involved.

If it was about someone else, Arnold would naturally avoid it to preserve his own reputation.

But it was about Jane...

Arnold couldn't sit and watch. After all, Jane was his only granddaughter.

Besides, Arnold had always considered Jane well-behaved, sensible, and caring. She wouldn't have possibly been so despicable as to plagiarise.

As for Cora, it was not that he didn't trust her. But it was hard to tell what was going on in others’ minds. He liked Cora, but not enough to trust her completely.

So in front of everyone, Arnold was the first to declare, "Jane's work was completed under my watch, and I can guarantee with my honor that she did not plagiarize.”

After saying this, Arnold looked at Cora, and Cora was also looking at him with tears rolling in her eyes.

Darren also said, "I saw Jane's beginning stage of creation, and I'm sure she didn't plagiarize anyone."

The testament of two major figures in the woodcarving field somehow confirmed Cora's plagiarism. At that moment, Cora felt like she had fallen from heaven to hell.

What disappointed Cora most was that Arnold, who she had respected and admired, would go this far to cover up for Jane.

"Why did you say that you accepted me as your apprentice because you found me creative? The fact is you asked me to participate in the woodcarving competition to set me up for plagiarism. This is nothing but a trap to destroy my reputation, right?"

Cora glared at Arnold.

Arnold wanted to say no because he did think she was creative, and he did like her as an apprentice. If it wasn't for Jane, he would have taught her everything he knew before this woodcarving competition.

But before Arnold could reply, Cora sneered and said, "If I have evidence to prove that my work was not plagiarized, will Dr. Yoris always be remembered for the shame of plagiarism and framing forever?”

With her sparkling eyes, Cora looked at Arnold and then at Jane, playful and aggressive.

It made Jane nervous.

Did Cora really have any evidence to prove her innocence?

If she did, Jane would have shot herself in the foot this time. Instead of ruining Cora's reputation, Jane would have made herself notorious.

Just when Jane was worrying about the undesirable consequences, Arnold suddenly spoke, "Cora, I know you are very sad and nervous to be exposed. But you shouldn't frame others and ruin their reputation. Think about your mother. She is still in the hospital. How would she feel if she found out about this?"
