Chapter 156: Chapter 97 Your Dinner
lissa’s face turned red and swollen.
lissa didn’t care about the slap and said, "Okay, Jessie, when you finally calm down. I"ll say it again. I didn’t plagiarize."
"What do you an?" Jessie asked angrily.
Jessie thought, How dare lissa scorn
in public?
"Just literal aning," lissa replied bluntly.
"Stop confusing us! The truth is that you plagiarized." Jessie raised her voice, wanting more people to know about it.
At first, only a few people knew of the design of "Ice and Fire".
Now, Jessie’s words inford the whole secretarial departnt of it.
The other staff looked at lissa with suspicion.
After all, Marilyn was so famous. Yet, lissa was just an ordinary secretary.
What’s more, lissa ca from the countryside. How could she design jewelry?
The others suspected that lissa ventured to plagiarize in order to get promoted.
"Jessie Kennet, do you have anything else to do? If not, please go back. I don’t welco mad dogs here," lissa said calmly.
"What? How dare you call
a mad dog?" Jessie was enraged.
lissa remained calm. "Did I say that? You said it yourself."
"You!" Jessie was indignant.
Jessie breathed deeply. She aid to expose lissa’s plagiarism in public.
Thinking of this, Jessie snorted coldly and questioned, "How dare you be so arrogant after you plagiarized?
"The ’Ice and Fire’ will be released in two days. There will be a press conference then. Do you want to cause a scandal for the Gibson Corporation?"
"Jessie Kennet, you are from the design departnt. The press conference has nothing to do with you. You’d better use the ti to improve the design ability of your departnt," lissa said sarcastically.
Jessie was upset. "You’re so shaless. Since you refuse to admit that you plagiarized, I’ll tell Mr. Gibson that you copied Love and Romance and ask him to cancel the press conference."
"Murray has put
in charge of the press conference," lissa smiled and said.
"That’s Impossible." Jessie sneered.
Jessie thought, I don’t believe that Murray didn’t see the news of Love and Romance.
As long as he saw it, he would know that lissa’s ’Ice and Fire’ design plagiarized other’s ideas.
I don’t believe that Murray will hold a press conference after knowing that lissa plagiarized.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth." lissa ignored Jessie. lissa had a lot of things to do for the press conference in two days due to the news of Love and Romance.
lissa didn’t want to waste ti with Jessie.
"lissa Eugen, you’re too proud. How could Mr. Gibson put you in charge of the press conference? You’re only a plagiarizer," Jessie said in a hostile tone.
lissa frowned. Just as she was about to speak, a familiar cold voice was heard, "I’ve put lissa in charge of the press conference. Do you have any objections?"
lissa looked up and saw Murray.
"What are you doing here during work ti?" Murray asked coldly.
The other employees hushed and returned to their seats nervously.
"Mr. Gibson," Once seeing Murray, Jessie greeted him, "Did you see the news? Love and Romance’s newly released design is the sa as lissa’s design, ’Ice and Fire’."
"So what?" Murray frowned.
So what?
Jessie was stunned.
She thought, Obviously, lissa copied others. Shouldn’t Murray fire lissa imdiately?
Jessie looked at Murray and said, "It ans that lissa’s designs copied others."
Seeing that Murray didn’t understand, Jessie clicked on the designs posted online by Love and Romance and compared them with lissa’s designs.
"Look at these! The jewelry newly released by Love and Romance is similar to lissa’s ’Ice and Fire’. The most important thing was that idea, Life Without Limits. This is enough to prove that lissa plagiarized Marilyn."
Murray glanced at Jessie coldly. "Why don’t you think that Marilyn copied lissa?"
Jessie thought, Marilyn copied lissa?!
How could it be?
Jessie bit her lips. "Marilyn is the top jewelry designer. She has won many international awards in recent years. How could she plagiarize a layman like lissa?"
"Alright, it’s none of your business." Murray pulled his tie impatiently.
Jessie didn’t want to give in.
She thought lissa copied others. Why would Murray want to help her?
If the press conference isn’t canceled, the Gibson Corporation will beco a joke in the jewelry industry.
Jessie walked out of the secretarial departnt and toward the design departnt.
Accidentally, she bumped into soone.
Jessie looked up. She bumped into Jim Corbin, the vice president of the company.
"Mr. Corbin, I’m sorry," Jessie apologized.
"What’s wrong?" Jim frowned and asked.
Jessie inford Jim of lissa’s plagiarism. "I don’t understand why Mr. Gibson trusts lissa. He insists on holding a press conference despite knowing that lissa plagiarized. Isn’t it obvious that lissa will cause a scandal for the company?"
Jessie paused and continued, "Mr. Corbin, you are an elder of the company. You have to be fair."
Jim sighed. "The company now belongs to young people. It’s not up to the senior."
After Jessie left, lissa threw herself into the work. She must make sure that the press conference will be successful in two days. This was related to the Gibson Corporation’s reputation.
It was ti to get off work.
"Let’s go ho ," Murray called lissa.
lissa looked at the ti and shook her head, "I’ll continue working. You can go first."
"Alright." Murray hung up the phone.
The night fell and lissa was still working.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard. lissa raised her eyebrows.
It was Murray.
"Didn’t you go ho?" lissa asked in surprise.
Murray walked to lissa with a thermos in his hand.
He placed the thermos on lissa’s desk and said, "Your dinner."
Dinner?
Only then did lissa rember that she had not eaten dinner yet.
lissa wondered, How does Murray know that I haven’t had dinner? Why did he even bring
the al?
