Only then did Eudora realize that even the meal with her yesterday was part of her plan. She fell into the trap without even knowing it.
The rest of the colleagues were jealous of Eudora. They were not going to allow her to succeed this easily.
Now that Jacqueline had started, they were going to continue the story for her.
"That's right. We saw them having lunch together yesterday, talking and laughing." One said while another added,
"Yes, I also heard that Jacqueline reassured Eudora that she would always help if she doesn't understand anything!"
Eudora frowned. "The meal is just a coincidence. Plus, there are only a few interior styles to choose from in total. Why can't I choose the same style as yours, Miss Zac?"
Her points were not convincing at all!
"Of course you didn't! You copied more than that!" Jacqueline exclaimed.
Jacqueline pointed to a spot on the screen and added, "This is on my draft too. I designed it!"
It was a European-style garden rack. Eudora had added it onto her design to make it look more elegant.
Eudora had included it in her new work too. It never occurred to Eudora that this would become proof to say that she plagiarized others' works! Although Jacqueline did not edit any part of the drawing, she had paid attention to the details in Eudora's work.
Christopher frowned upon hearing this.
Everyone was mumbling among themselves, discussing the best way to get rid of Eudora.
"Both your designs are so similar. Could you have accidentally mentioned it to someone, Jacqueline? Or did someone lure you to tell her your idea?"
Jacqueline glared at Eudora, and everyone was convinced that Eudora was the thief.
Eudora took a deep breath and said, "Yes, Miss Zac, you are right!"
No one expected that Eudora was going to admit it.
Jacqueline could not hide her wicked gaze. Her determination to destroy Eudora grew stronger.
Eudora continued, "I was indeed used by someone. But it is not me. It's you, Jacqueline Zac!"
Jacqueline's smile froze on her face and yelled, "Nonsense."
"We will speak with evidence! If this is truly your design, show us the materials you collected," Eudora replied.
Jacqueline was stunned. She overlooked this.
Jacqueline thought that someone who was always nice and friendly like Eudora would not dare to speak up. She didn't expect that Eudora could remain calm in this situation and come out with such a strong point against her.
"I completed it at one go!" Jacqueline gritted her teeth and whispered.
Eudora nodded. "Okay. I'll show everyone my preparation work then."
Eudora opened her file folder and took out all the materials and examples she had collected in the past few days. She also showed some of her drafts, all of which had the timestamps on it.
The dates showed that Eudora drafted her work days ago.
Knowing the truth after seeing all the evidence, Christopher looked at Eudora with admiration.
Jacqueline continued to argue, "These things can only prove that we chose the same concept by coincidence, but you can't deny that you copied my work!"
"No, I didn't!" Eudora rebutted. She enlarged the garden rack on Jacqueline's design.
"Please look carefully at the corner of this flower rack," Eudora pointed.
Everyone's eyes followed Eudora's finger.
