Chapter 1535


    Chapter 1535 That person''s words immediately drew the crowd''s attention as everyone shifted their


    gaze to him.


    They saw a stylish young man sitting in the middle of the venue with his legs crossed.


    His fairplexion, heavy makeup, and how he carried himself exuded an air of arrogance.


    Shockingly, seated beside him was Barbara, who had been fired by Ste just a month ago.


    Maggie could not help but curl her fingers as she gazed at the two individuals in the audience.


    The unexpected usation at the event stirred amotion among the guests.


    "who said that?" "I think it''s Chad Benson, the design manager from Grandeur Gallery." “They''re


    competitors, huh?" "A lot of guests here are from the same industry.


    The Velvet has been aggressive with its marketing campaign, and everyone came intending to learn


    and congratte them.


    Mypany also sent me to be here.


    I was not expecting to stumble upon such shocking news." “What news?" "The Velvet''s designer,


    Maggie Hart, used to work for Grandeur Gallery.


    A few years back, the Chief Designer of Grandeur Gallery was exposed for giarism, and Maggie


    was the whistleblower.


    She openly revealed that Grandeur Gallery published her design under someone else''s name and got


    into awsuit with her former employer." “What happened after that? Did she win?" “Win what? Both


    sides suffered losses.


    Grandeur Gallery faced massive losses when the scandal broke out.


    However, Maggie did not have it good either.


    She backstabbed her former employer, and nopany would want to hire such a troublemaker like


    her.


    Surprisingly, she''s working for The Velvet now, and the gship product is being used of giarism


    by her former employer.


    What a twist of fate." A few days ago, thememorative gift, "Rebirth," was delivered to The Velvet''s


    existing customers.


    As Ste had expected, the design was well-received, and the existing customers shared photos of it


    on their social media ounts.


    A lot of people saw the design, and it gained plenty of attention within the jewelry designmunity.


    Its design concept was unique, so it got many people talking about it.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    At that time, no one knew who designed it.


    They all thought it was a renowned industry expert newly recruited by The Velvet.


    It was not until today''s event that they discovered it was actually Maggie, the person who every


    company in the industry had cklisted.


    The fact that someone who exposed her superior for giarism had now been used of it herself by


    her former employer made things very dramatic for everyone.


    The Velvet''s productunch event was organized on a grand scale.


    Not only had they invited their existing customers, but also many media representatives and fellow


    industry professionals.


    So, everything happening at the venue was being live-streamed by the media.


    The security guards immediately tried to escort Chad out to maintain order for the event.


    Chad stood up and shrugged off the security guards who tried to take him away.


    He gazed at Maggie, who was standing on the stage, and said, "Is The Velvet just going to take the


    person seeking justice away instead of addressing the issue? I can''t believe this is how The Velvet


    deals with its problems.


    They have no respect for originality at all." The media immediately directed their cameras toward Chad.


    Matters concerning giarism always garnered the most attention, so the reporters were determined


    not to miss this opportunity.


    Chris scolded the security guards with a stern expression, "Why are you just standing there? Escort


    him out! He''s clearly causing trouble!" Felicity asked, "Why does he want to kick him out instead of


    rifying things? Is he an idiot?" Ste was about to stand up, but Keegan held her hand.


    She turned to him and said, "It''s going to be fine." So, Keegan let go of her hand.


    Then, Ste took the microphone she was handed to and spoke, "Please let go of this gentleman."


    "Ms.


    Hall," Chris came down from the stage anxiously, "We should talk about this privately with him.


    This is a big matter.


    We might have to end theunch event here.” Ste looked at him indifferently, "Why should we?
