When Roy turned the conversation to business, he got quite serious. Taking a nce at Edmund and
Chelsea, he asked, “Have you seen Diane and Gerry who just left?”
They affirmatively nodded their heads.
Roy stared at them with a puzzled expression and answered, “To be honest, the draft you presented is
the same as the one they provided me.”
“What?” Edmund and Chelsea inquired in astonishment.
On top of that, Roy said, “They sent me half an hour before you.”
It implied that Chelsea had stolen the idea from Gerry.
“That’s not possible!” Edmund was clear in his denial.
Chelsea’s adaptation of the screeny had a distinct style.
Also, Chelsea had no interest in engaging in such activity.
Angry, Chelsea’s eyes became crimson.
“What is going on here? I painstakingly wrote the copy I gave you word for word.”
As a writer, Chelsea had always detested giarism the most. Unfortunately, she was now being
used of copying other people’s work. She felt furious and helpless now.
Edmund could not resist gently grasping her hand as a signal for her to calm down after seeing that
she was so enraged.
He’d be there to assist her. In response to their closeness, Roy Lifted one eyebrow. He couldn’t figure
out what was wrong with him. He felt uneasy when
Edmund and Chelsea were so close, to the extent that he even disliked Edmund.
Edmund let go of his hold. He turned around and softly questioned her, “Have you recently received
any odd emails on yourputer? Did you read them?”
The only exnation, ording to Edmund’s analysis, was that Diane and Gerry had hired someone to
break into Chelsea’sputer using aputer virus.
When Edmund brought it up, Chelsea had a thought. “There were a few e-mails I got. In most cases, I
review them to determine if they are necessary and remove the unnecessary ones.”
Edmund realized that Diane had likely taken her writing in this method. Chelsea’s PC was being
remotely watched. She did not immediately send it to Roy after finishing writing. Instead, she forwarded
it to Luka and Edmund to review and awaited feedback.
Here, Diane and Gerry took advantage of the situation by sending the stolen draft directly to Roy. They
were, therefore, half an hour ahead of Chelsea.
It was not Chelsea’s fault. Diane was, to put it bluntly, overly cunning. The innocent Chelsea was never
her match.
No wonder they had happily wished them good luck. They were already sure of their victory all the way
here from Vertoak.
Were they proud of winning in such a dirty and unworthy way?Owned by N?velDrama.Org.
Edmund clenched his fists and tried not to think of Diane and Gerry. If not, his anger towards them
would make him do something crazy. So, he looked at Roy and said, “You should have eliminated us if
you suspected us cheating. Why did you make use all the way here?”
“after our meetingst time, I immediately saw that you were a respectable man. I couldn’t believe that
you would pirate someone’s work without any shame. Instead of doing something so shameful, you’d
rather pay the scriptwriter to work for you, even if you have to pay more than what he is worth. Unless
of course, I was wrong.” Roy tilted his head and looked back at Edmund in amusement.
