    Chapter 144 It’s a Copy of Mine


    The room fell silent as everyone present listened carefully. The recording sounded no different at first,


    but after they pondered it, Nicole was just questioning whether the design belonged to Danie, then


    warned her to withdraw thewsuit as soon as possible if she weren’t the actual owner.


    Although it was also essentially asking for the withdrawal of thewsuit, there was still a huge


    difference.


    Danie wrung her wrists nervously, but still stood firm and said, “This recording also shows that you


    asked me to withdraw thewsuit!”


    Nicole pressed the pause button, then instead of looking at Danie, she looked up at the judge.


    “The recording I have is theplete version. In the recording, I didn’t threaten Danie to withdraw


    thewsuit, but asked her not to falsely im ownership of this design and sue me.”


    “That design is mine! I didn’t steal it!” Danie hurriedly assured when she heard Nicole’s statement.


    The judge knocked the gavel once and demanded, “Silence!”


    Danie could only shut her mouth in frustration and let Nicole continue.


    “So, the charge of me threatening her to withdraw thewsuit is invalid.” Nicole spoke with reasoning


    and rity.


    Queenie, who was sitting at the side, gradually became solemn, and she tightly clenched her fists, not


    expecting Nicole to have this trick up her sleeves.


    “Even so, the fact that youmitted giarism is still true. These two designs can be judged by


    professional designers. It’s giarism!” Danie immediately brought forth another piece of evidence.


    Somehow, she felt guilty upon seeing how calm Nicole was.


    After all, this wasn’t her design.


    Seeing how panicked Danie was, Nicole slightly narrowed her eyes and stated, “If this design really


    belongs to you, Miss Danie, then I did copy it, but it’s a pity that this design is not yours.”


    As soon as Nicole said this, everyone was in an uproar. Wasn’t she admitting that her design was a


    copy?


    “It turns out that she wasn’t wrongly used. It’s really giarism!”


    “Initially, I thought that the trial might be reversed since Lisa was so bold yesterday. I didn’t expect her


    to just admit it!”


    “giarizing b*tch!”

    “Silence! Silence!” The judge called out when he saw themotion.


    Everyone calmed down.


    Queenie was a little puzzled as she stared at Nicole, who was in the stand. Isn’t she just seeking her


    own demise?


    Now that they had brought the case to court, Danie could only insist, “This design is mine!”


    Nicole chuckled lightly, her eyes gleaming. “Then, please present evidence that shows this design is


    yours.”


    Danie immediately presented the evidence.


    Unexpectedly, Queenie had actually helped Danie make a document. It looked rather real, and it was


    almost no different from what she had.


    It seemed that they had put in a lot of effort.


    “I have a question,” Nicole uttered after seeing the so-called evidence. She pointed to a point on the


    screen and said, “At that time, the design was indeed sent by email, but it wasn’t signed as


    ‘anonymous’, but ‘June’!”


    “What nonsense are you spewing? When I participated in thepetition, I just wanted to give it a try,


    so I didn’t sign it at all!” Danie immediately retorted.


    “This can be proved by a judge from thatpetition,” Nicole pointed out.


    After that, someone actually brought the judge onto the stand.


    When Queenie saw the judgeing onto the stand, her face changed instantly. At that time, she


    thought of inviting the judge from back then to confirm Nicole’s giarism, but the judge had expressed


    her unwillingness to get involved. She was only willing to post a certificate on the Inte to prove that


    Nicole’s design was simr to that of the champion from that year.


    Unexpectedly, Nicole had invited her over now.


    The judge wasn’t very old. She was in her early fifties, but she maintained her appearance quite well,


    and she seemed to have a decent temperament.


    She appeared as a witness and stood there, then said, “I didn’t take a close enough look at that time.


    Later on, Miss Lisa reminded me to check the email carefully, and I found that the signature was indeed


    ‘June’. The reason the design was said to be anonymous was because the signature was written in the


    remarks column.”
