Chapter 640


    Sallie abruptly stood up, snatched her own juice, and flung it onto Carme’s face. “How shameless!”


    she eximed.


    “Ah! Carme screamed, attempting to dodge the sshing liquid.


    Simone quickly handed her a tissue to clean her face, then turned and scolded Sallie, “What on earth


    do you think you’re doing?”


    Leonie also tried to restrain Sallie, saying, “Sallie, what has gotten into you?”


    Terrence sternly reprimanded, “Where are your manners? Stanley, you need to discipline Sallie!”


    Sallie pushed Leonie away and red at the seemingly innocent Carme. “There’s no way Estelle


    giarized your work! I didn’t want to say it before, but since you’re so shameless, I won’t cover it up


    for you any longer.”


    Sallie nced around at everyone present and boldly dered, The truth is, Carme is the one who


    giarized Estelle’s designs and was expelled from Snowy Studios!”


    Everyone was stunned, and a heavy silence fell over the entire restaurant.


    Carme stared at Sallie in panic and eximed, “You… you’re talking nonsense!”


    Sabina furrowed her brow, saying. This is a serious matter in the industry, Sallie. You can’t simply make


    baseless usations like that!”


    Seeing Simone, who’d always favored and spoiled Carme, keeping quiet, Leonie sneered, “I have a


    feeling that this might actually be true!”


    Carme’s face changed, and she angrily stared at Sallie, “Did Estelle tell you? Was it her?”


    Sallie replied, “It has nothing to do with her. Someone else told me!”


    Coincidentally, Jessica’s cousin also studied design and was Sallie’s ssmate. Sallie’s ssmate had


    learned about the incident first and had jokingly mentioned it to Sallie at a gathering.

    That’s when Sallie found out that Carme had been fired from Snowy Studios.


    Sallie continued, “You’re still trying to deceive everyone even though the evidence has been found.


    You’ve got some nerve!”


    “Shut up!” Carme suddenly stood up, tears streaming down her face, and used Sallie, ‘You’ve


    been bought by Estelle! You and your brother have both been bought! I didn’t giarize her, I didn’t!”


    With that, she got up and ran outside.


    “Carme!” Simone called out and hurriedly chased after her.


    Sallie got up and followed as well.


    The few of them ran out to the courtyard, and Sallie shouted, “Aunt Simone!”


    Simone stopped, turned around, and looked at Sallie with hatred, “What benefits did Estelle give you


    that made you expose Carme in public?!”


    Sallie frowned at Simone, ‘Aunt, you can’t be so biased! It was clearly Carme who framed Estelle for


    giarism. You must know the truth too. Why didn’t you speak up for Estelle earlier?”


    Simone’s eyes darted around evasively as she responded, “Carme has already been through so


    much paintely, almost to the point of self-destruction over this matter. Are you suggesting that I push


    her even further?”


    “Her suffering is entirely her own doing. Does a criminal deserve forgiveness just because they appear


    pitiful?” Sallie sneered. “Aunt, open your eyes and see! Carme is hypocritical and malicious. She


    schemed to drive Estelle away from your side so that she could monopolize your and Uncle’s fortune!


    Estelle is your real daughter and our true family member. You should embrace Estelle instead!”


    Simone angrily retorted, “Sallie, are you a junior trying to lecture me? It’s not your ce to interfere in


    our family matters!”


    Sallie gritted her teeth in frustration, “You don’t deserve to be Estelle’s mother. Sooner orter, you’ll


    regret this!”


    “It’s all because of you envious and ipetent people trying to bring Carme down!”


    Simone couldn’t hear Sallie’s words as she turned away, determined to chase after Carme once


    again.


    Back in the dining room, Terrence frowned and asked Bet, “is what Sallie said just now true? Did


    Carme really giarize Estelle’s designs?” Bet lowered his head, his face pale, and after a long


    while, he slowly nodded.


    “Damn it!” Terrence pped the table hard, “Our family spent so much time and money on raising her,


    and she did something as disgraceful as giarism! Shepletely ruined our family’s reputation!”


    Bet remained quiet, embarrassed and ashamed


    “Estelle is so heartless Elizabethined, They’re sisters, what’s the problem with borrowing


    ideas? She had to make it known to everyone is she proud of herself?”


    Natalia sighed, “After all, they’re not real sisters!”


    Hans disapproved, “Grandma, you’re wrong about that. Are you saying that Estelle should have


    pretended nothing happened after Carme giarized her work? Should she ask Aunt Simone and


    Uncle Bet for justice?”
