Chapter 591
Before Hannah could interject, Carme stepped forward, tears welling up in her eyes, and spoke with
a tone of grievance, “Mr. Gilder, Estelle copied the design I created and entered it into thepetition
for the movie costume designer, which ultimately cost Alice and me our opportunity. You must ensure
justice is served!”
Jason cast a nce at Estelle and responded with an indifferent tone. “Are you using Estelle of
giarizing your design?”
Carme vigorously nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks. “Yes!”
A subtle smile yed on Jason’s lips as he adopted an ambiguous expression. He turned his gaze
towards Estelle and calmly remarked, “Is that the case?”
Estelle’s gaze wasplicated, and she didn’t say a word.
Hannah said, “The surveince footage shows that Estelle indeed peeked at Carme’s design draft.”
Inman immediately said, “Mr. Gilder, here’s the thing. Carme called Estelle to help her find an
address in the drawer. The footage doesn’t show whether there were design drafts in the drawer or not.
I think there must be some scheming going on here.”
“What scheming?” Alice sneered.
Everyone was waiting for Jason to speak. He was silent for a moment, then frowned at Estelle, “Have
you eaten?”
Everyone was speechless.
Is this the right time to ask that?
Estelle shook her head, “I have been dealing with this matter the whole time, so I haven’t had a chance
to eat.”
“Hungry?” Jason turned to his assistant Sandy said, “Get a lunchbox for her.”
Everyone but Sandy was a bit puzzled. Why does Jason care so much about Estelle? Shouldn’t the

priority be to find the giarist?
Jason seemed to see everyone’s astonishment and exined, “Her stomach isn’t good. She needs to
eat on time. Don’t worry; we’ll deal with the matter properly!”
He turned and sat back down in his chair, looking indifferent and casual. He looked at Estelle and said
casually, “You sort it out, and cthen eat quickly!”
With the incident and waiting for Jason, Estelle’s stomach was indeed ufortable.
She took a deep breath, looked at the crowd with different expressions, and said, “First of all, that call
was indeed from Carme. I have the call record on my phone, and if you don’t believe it, you can also
check with the telmunications bureau.”
Alice nced at Jason and said coldly, “So what if you prove that the call was from Carme? It’s a fact
that you peeked at her design draft!”
Inman sneered, “Carme did call Estelle, but she swore she didn’t. Isn’t that a problem? If she’s not
guilty, why lie?”
Carme looked flustered, as she suddenly felt the rtionship between Jason and Estelle seemed
moreplicated than what they’d
seen.
Why did Jason know Estelle so well and even knew she had stomach issues?
Although his tone was cold when he told Estelle to handle it herself, he seemed to trust her and was
sure she didn’t giarize.
Her instincts told her that Jason and Estelle must be close.
“Now that we’ve rified the first point, I’ll prove that I didn’t giarize Carme’s design draft.” Estelle
finished talking, went to her desk, turned on her usual design software, and searched for her design.
She showed the screen to everyone and said, “This is the
yback of my drawing process. It started on Thursday morning and was almost done by the end of
the afternoon. The surveince footage shows that I looked through Carme’s drawer around 2 p.m.
on Friday. Time doesn’t go backward; I couldn’t have seen her draft first before going back to Thursday
to make the design.”
Everyone was stunned.
