Chapter 193: Questioning
However, Ana, who was sitting next to the director, saw that sentence and got up directly:
-Mari has such a high design talent, why would she copy yours? Don''t falsely use her!
There was pure confidence in the words.
Mariana nced at Leopoldo, her eyes were deep and she sat down next to her assistant without
making a move.
Mariana smiled softly at Ana, feeling somefort in her heart. Then she looked coldly at Elisa and
spoke softly:
Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
-I''m afraid that, if we rely only on these few drafts, we cannot conclude that I have copied you.
Only the remains in Elisa''s hand, if she insisted on not admitting it, it seemed that she could do nothing,
it was not conclusive proof.
With a coldugh, Elisa did not seem to expect Mariana to say this.
-So, do you deny it now?
-I am simply asking.
A softughter came from not far away, then Diana stood up, looked at the two of them and spoke
softly towards Mariana:
-You wouldn''t really do something like that, would you? Those drafts of Elisa''s look like these designs
of yours. If you say you haven''t giarized, I''ll believe you.
Diana looked at Mariana, with firm eyes, as if she was persuading the one who had done something
wrong to back off.
How ridiculous!
Diana''s words were superficially on her side, but vaguely implied that she had indeed done this
giarism.
-It is better not to bother Miss Solis with my business.
Mariana blurted out these words indifferently, without even looking at Diana.
Diana could only sit up, her eyes watering.
She looked towards Leopoldo, but to her surprise, he was looking at Mariana at that moment, without
seeing her.
At this instant, Diana felt a great panic and rage, causing her eyes to darken with a fierce and violent
look.
Diana clenched her hands into fists and continued to clench them. When the stabbing pain in her palms
hit her, she barely managed to steady herself, her face still nd.
Then, Mariana continued to look at Elisa, with a sullen tone.
-At first, Nuria told me that she delivered these works of mine to your desk along with hers, and at the
time, she also told me that you thought they were all good. I''m afraid you had already realized that
these were my works, right?
Mariana''s words were full of questions. The aforementioned Nuria stood up, her eyes meeting those
present before she nodded and said:
-It is true, at the beginning, I had Mariana''s works among my works and I took them to Elisa.
At these words, Mariana smiled gratefully toward Nuria. The fact that she could stand up and say these
things for her in this way was tantamount to turning against Elisa, and she might not be very
-Elisa, were you already plotting this then?
The interrogative words fell in a deep voice in the room, causing everyone present to gasp in surprise
and look at the unexpected event as if breathing carefully.
At that moment, the assistant behind Elisa spoke softly, defending her:
-Elisa is strict with you because she is responsible for you, Mariana, isn''t it too impolite for her to
question you like that?
Mariana paid no attention to the assistant''s words and took out her drawings, handing them one by one
to those present for them to see.
-This is the drawing of my design, you can look closely at the lines of it, it is a design that has gone
through many revisions before beingpleted, and you can see some small letters M. O. on the hem
of each garment, which are my initials.
The crowd looked at them carefully and nodded, agreeing with Mariana''s words.
Leopoldo raised his head slightly and looked at Mariana, who was standing in front of the crowd with a
cold and methodical face, a slight look of surprise shone in her eyes.
At this moment, it seemed as if he was a different person from the one he normally saw in front of him.
However, in the cold eyes arose a little admiration, with a slight tenderness.
At that moment, Lionel, who was standing next to her, looked at the expression on her face and asked
in a soft voice:
-Mr. Durán, do you need me to go upstairs to help thedy?
The voice was so small that it must have been so small that only the two of them could hear it.
Leopoldo shook his head, he wanted to see how far he could go.
With a sigh in his heart, Lionel continued to watch Mariana and Elisa discriminate.
It was really rare for Leopoldo to behave like this.
Mariana secretly looked at Leopoldo, but saw a darkness like an abyss.
Quickly, he turned his head and continued to look at Elisa.
Elisa had not even thought that Mariana was in the habit of writing her initials on her designs.
Seeing Elisa''s frown and hesitant look, Diana stood up and looked at Mariana with a few moments of
confusion in her eyes.
-You said that Elisa framed you? But what can she achieve by doing this? What''s the point? She is now
the design director of the moradpany, while you are just a small designer under her, is she
afraid that you will affect her position in the future?
At these words, the crowd in the room became even more bewildered.
In fact, it seemed that Elisa had no reason to falsely use Mariana, but Mariana could have copied
Elisa''s work for several reasons.
-Miss Solis, if you can conclude on the basis of conjecture and not evidence, I''m afraid everyone in the
world is a divine detective.
The sarcastic words fell on Diana''s ears, making her turn red.
Diana looked at Leopoldo and spoke aggressively:
-Leo, I just wanted to help her get rid of the giarism usation, but I was actually misunderstood
that way.
Diana''s words were full of aggression and sadness, and Leopoldo turned his eyes away and rested on
her, who was about to burst into tears.
