Someone in the audience gasped.Â
Then, Nancy restyled Hillary’s dress into a slit design again. As Hillary walked, her long, slender legs flashed in and out of view, adding a striking allure.Â
“Oh my God! One dress can change into so many different styles!”Â
“If Nancy knows all this and Raine doesn’t, isn’t it obvious that Nancy was the one who designed the dress?”Â
Whispers rippled through the crowd, everyone looking puzzled.Â
Raine’s nails dug into her palm.Â

eyes.Â
Meeting their questioning eyes, she bit her lower lip, tears welling in her studied my sketches really carefully to come up with so many ways to wear it.”Â
It was just style changes. That alone couldn’t prove it was Nancy’s design.Â
Regina frowned slightly, glancing between Raine and Nancy.Â
Nancy said calmly, “Don’t worry.”Â
“Looks like youÂ
She adjusted the petal design on the bodice of her gown, and under the spotlight, words slowly appeared across it, making the audience gasp.Â
“Wait… Doesn’t that read ‘Nance’?”Â
“Yes! Wow, so it really is Nancy’s design!”Â
“You can even faintly see the word ‘Nance’ on the dress Raine’s model is wearing, but not as clearly.”Â
“Raine didn’t just steal Nancy’s design. She didn’t even bother to change a single detail.”Â
At that moment, no one could deny the fact that Raine was the plagiarist.Â
People who had just pitied her regretted it deeply now. Their looks toward her turned harsh and disgusted.Â
“I should’ve known Raine was no good. Do you remember what happened at that piano competition? She openly accused Nancy then, too!”Â
“Did Mr. and Mrs. Lidell raise her all these years just for her to pull cheap tricks like this?”Â

“So disgusting. If Nancy hadn’t kept a backup plan, she’d never have cleared her name thisÂ
time!”Â
Raine felt the collective looks of disgust hit her square in the face. Her breathing quickened, her face went pale, and her ears rang.Â
Even Regina was stunned. She turned to Raine with disbelief written all over her face. Still clinging to the last bit of hope, she asked, “Raine, is this true?”Â
Hillary snapped, “Mrs. Lidell, how much clearer does it have to be? Are you still lying to yourself? Can you be any more biased? Pathetic!”Â
Regina’s face darkened at the scolding.Â
Andrew’s expression was even worse. “Raine, you’d better explain what the hell is going on!”Â
“I…” Raine’s tears spilled over. “I really don’t know.”Â
“You don’t know? Your dress just happened to spell out ‘Nance’ on its own?” Andrew wasÂ
furious.Â
Fergus looked at her with worry. “Raine, is there a misunderstanding here? Just say it. We’ll stand by you.”Â
His gentle, kindhearted sister couldn’t possibly plagiarize, could she?Â
But the crowd and the live stream audience were already disgusted.Â
“Are the Lidells blind? I’m sick to my stomach!”Â
“Apparently so. How can they still make excuses when the plagiarism is this obvious?”Â
“Raine is so gross. She used her status to bully Nancy. If Nancy hadn’t been prepared, she’d never have been able to clear her name.”Â
“I really don’t know. Minerva, didn’t you give me the sketch? Hurry up and explain!”Â
Raine whipped her head toward Minerva.Â
Minerva froze, pointing at herself. “But… weren’t you the one who wanted to claim-”Â
“Minerva, I’m sorry. Since things have come to this point, I have to tell the truth. You told me your brother was sick and your family needed money. You begged me to release the design under my name and said it would sell better that way.Â
“I only agreed because I felt bad for you. I had no idea that you actually stole the sketch. Minerva, Nancy’s already proven it. You’d better say something now!” Raine’s eyes filled withÂ

All eyes shifted to Minerva.Â

Her body trembled, and her heart sank. If she admitted it, could she ever work as a designer again?Â
But looking at Raine’s cold, threatening glare, she knew that she could not survive afterward if she denied it.Â
