Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 605

And then there was Daphne...

She was also suing Hailey for plagiarism.

And she had plagiarized a top-tier master like Queen, no less!

How much would the damages be?

Marianne didn't even dare to fathom the astronomical figure.

Her vision darkened, and she nearly fainted on the spot.

Hailey had clearly realized this too.

Making her pay millions in compensation was essentially a death sentence.

An unforgettable sum that would ruin the rest of her life...

Just how much was it?!

It was likely a debt she couldn't pay off even if she worked until the day she died!

No!

She wouldn't pay.

She refused to go to prison!

She wasn't going to let the rest of her life be ruined like this!

Hailey's face drained of color as two law enforcement officers grabbed her arms to escort her off the competition stage.

Suddenly, she shrieked, "No! I refuse to accept this! You have absolutely no proof that I plagiarized! Why am I automatically the copycat just because Serena is Queen?"

Serena was Queen.

Which meant the sketches she had found in the Wynn family's storage room were all drawn by Serena when she still lived there.

But they were just rough drafts.

Serena had drawn them and casually tossed them aside at the estate.

And after Hailey had traced them, she had burned every last one.

Once the drafts were ashes, there was no trace left behind.

Serena couldn't possibly produce a shred of evidence.

So what if they called the cops?

The only thing they would find were the sketches Hailey had traced by hand.

She had drawn them stroke by stroke.

It was her own handwriting.

At worst, she would just publicly admit that she had privately guessed the theme for the upcoming Rising Star Designer competition and prepared her concepts in advance.

Seeing the entire venue fall silent.

Hailey lifted her chin and shot Serena a cold, provocative glare, as if daring her—*Show me the proof, if you have any!*

Serena stood there, tall and slender, her arms crossed in a posture of lazy comfort.

Daphne and Angela, along with several other judges, stood right behind her.

At a glance.

It looked as though Serena was the boss leading a crew of Elyndor Jewelry's heavyweights, completely dominating the stage.

She radiated an arrogant, unbridled confidence.

Her sheer presence was enough to suppress the entire room.

Hailey's face twisted in fury.

*Stop acting so high and mighty!*

So what if she was Queen?

Even Queen couldn't produce a single shred of evidence to prove plagiarism!

"Heh."

Serena let out a lazy scoff, her eyes narrowing with a hint of mockery as she took in Hailey's twisted, provocative expression. "Hailey, you didn't honestly think my drafts were the only proof, did you?"
