Chapter 449 Astonishing Her Speechless
“Ms. Taylor, according to our information, the Tangerine Group’s new product launch hasn’t been canceled and proceeded as scheduled.”
“Oh?”
Petunia laughed, “They probably don’t know about it yet, so they went ahead with it. Now, notify the legal department and send them a lawyer’s letter. The PR team should be prepared to release articles, accusing the Tangerine Group of plagiarism!”
Petunia had already planned the next steps for the confrontation, but her assistant explained, “Ms. Taylor, it seems we can’t accuse them.”
“What do you mean?”
“Their theme is different from ours. We have ‘Golden Years,’ and they have ‘Legends of Mountains and Seas.’”
“Hmm, they think they can avoid plagiarism just by changing the name at the last minute?”
“They can’t be considered plagiarists; it’s an entirely new collection, and their style is different from ours,” the assistant cautiously explained.
“What?”
Things were not going as Petunia had expected, leaving her puzzled. She quickly grabbed her phone to search for news about the Tangerine Group’s new product launch.
To her dismay, the Tangerine Group’s new product launch was trending ahead of theirs. It must be Cecelia who bought the top trending spot. How shameless.
She clicked on the link and could see the entire design showcase of the Tangerine Group’s new products.
From the event setup to the models walking the runway, everything was on display in the videos.
Seeing the mythological ancient-style designs, Petunia was left speechless.
They were supposed to have the theme “Golden Years,” so why had they suddenly switched to a mythological theme?
How did this happen?
What led to this sudden change?
Petunia was still puzzled when Cecelia, leading her team, arrived at the scene. Other fashion elites and guests also followed into the Peony Hall.
Cecelia noticed Petunia standing at the entrance of the Prosperity Hall and instructed her subordinates to welcome the guests while she walked straight to the Prosperity Hall.
Approaching Petunia, Cecelia stopped, her discerning eyes fixed on her without blinking.
“Mrs. Taylor! Taylor Group’s new product showcase and ours are on the same day, and even the celebration banquet is at the same venue. It’s such a coincidence. Don’t you think you should explain?”
“What is there to explain? Many events happen on the same day,” Petunia said, raising her chin slightly.
“But ‘Golden Years’ is our theme. Why has it been copied by you?”
Petunia’s smile lacked sincerity. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. ‘Golden Years’ is our design theme, and I’ve already applied for the copyright for this showcase with the relevant authorities. How can you call it copying? Please mind your choice of words.”
“Very well! You’ve resorted to any means necessary to cause trouble, but what then? Can stolen things last?”
“You want me to make a fool of myself, but our new product launch is proceeding as planned, and as you can see, it’s even more successful than yours. Are you disappointed with this outcome?”
Cecelia’s gaze grew colder, her eyes sharp as a blade, filled with a hint of mockery. “Enjoy your moment! Let’s see how long your happiness lasts.”
Cecelia turned away, her aura even more icy and determined. She would make Petunia regret her actions.
Watching Cecelia walk away, Petunia’s smirk became even more arrogant. Even if Cecelia didn’t accept it, so what?
The “Golden Years” theme had already been registered in advance. Even if Cecelia sought a lawyer’s help, it would be of no use!
Inside the Peony Hall, the celebration was underway.
When Cecelia returned, she heard someone calling her, “Cecelia!”
Turning around, she saw Ariella Nuno, holding a bouquet, running over from outside.
“Ariella! It’s been a while, and you seem to have lost some weight.”
Cecelia scrutinized her, noticing the more defined contours of her body, which surprised Cecelia. “What motivated your wonderful weight loss? Is it love?”
Cecelia asked this because she saw Rupert Jackbone entering from the entrance. She thought Ariella had lost weight for him.
“It’s not love! You’re overthinking it! I just wanted to have an easy summer!”
Ariella didn’t provide further details. Blame it on Rupert’s weird preference for overweight individuals, so she had to lose weight. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
She wanted to become as thin as a lightning bolt to make him dislike her!
“Cecelia! Congratulations!”
Rupert came over from behind, holding a bouquet. Upon meeting, he directly handed the flowers to Cecelia.
Cecelia graciously accepted them. “Thank you, thank you, and thank you for coming, Rupert! Please, go inside! Ariella, help me with Rupert.”
Cecelia didn’t treat Ariella as a stranger. Ariella turned and rolled her eyes at Rupert. “He’s not blind; does he ever need me?”
With those words, Ariella rushed inside to find Cynthia. Rupert had a helpless expression on his face. What should he do when the little chubby girl was so repulsed by him now?Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
After Rupert entered, Shepard Nuno followed. Cecelia greeted him, “Senior, not too busy today?”
“Even if I were, I’d come here. Your seamless cooperation with Cynth has led to success. I’m here to congratulate you!”
“Haha, thank you. Please, go and find Cynth first!”
Guests continued to arrive at the entrance. Sam Cosby and his sister, Fiona, came to the hotel together, but they were here to attend the Taylor Group’s celebration banquet.
Today, Sam was here to support his Fiona, as it was her first fashion show as the chief designer of the Taylor Group since returning to the country.
Seeing Cecelia, Sam wanted to go over and say hello. “Fiona, let’s go and greet Cecelia.”
“Sam, you go. I’ll stay here!”
Fiona was afraid of running into Remington and was unwilling to come over.
Sam walked over to congratulate Cecelia. “Cecelia, I watched your new product showcase online; it was very successful. Congratulations!”
“Thank you!”
Cecelia saw Fiona about to leave and stopped her in time. “Miss Cosby, please stay!”
“What do you want from me?” Fiona asked suspiciously.
“I have a question for you.”
Being scrutinized by Cecelia’s piercing gaze, Fiona felt a bit uneasy and hastily said, “What do you want to ask me? I haven’t seen Remington lately. If you don’t believe me, ask my brother!”
She was afraid of Cecelia. Whenever she saw Cecelia, she felt intimidated.
“I’m not asking about that!” Cecelia stated bluntly. “I heard you are the head designer for the Taylor Group’s new product showcase, right?”
“Yes, that’s correct!”
“I’d like to ask, did you personally draw and create all the designs for the ‘Golden Years’ collection?”
Suddenly asked this question, Fiona seemed momentarily stunned but quickly responded calmly, “Yes, I drew them and created the designs. I’m a designer; isn’t that normal? Why are you asking me this?”
