Chapter 5 A Plagiarist Is A Thief

“To make the competition fair, we’ve decided to postpone the awarding of the top three prizes until we

find out the truth of this plagiarism.”

As soon as the host finished his words, everyone was shocked, including Julian.

“Why? It’s just not fair to everyone!”

“Yes, since there is a controversy, just disqualify both of them!”

“Just tell us their names!”

The crowd began to complain. The reporters were full of interest.

Initially, the reporters thought it was just an ordinary competition, but unexpectedly there was such

breaking news. They now had a headline for tomorrow.

Julian was confident that there would be no problem with his product, so he stepped forward

confidently and said loudly to the crowd, “You’re right. Since such a situation happened, the organizers

of this competition should announce the result here. I believe that the heads of both companies are

present. Meanwhile, most of the people here came from the perfume industry. With them here

witnessing the whole process, the result will be more convincing, won’t it?”

Dashiell ignored the lively scene on the screen and kept his eyes riveted on Seraphina who was beside

him.

Seraphina was holding the glass in her hand, but she didn’t take a sip. There was always a cold smile

on her face.

Dashiell thought, ‘It has been years. She finally belonged to me. I have been waiting for this day for

three years. How could a man like Julian deserve Seraphina?

‘If Seraphina really wants to marry Julian, I would be the first one to object to it. But now that Julian and

Vivian’s affair was found by Seraphina, it saved me a lot of time and energy.

‘As for Seraphina, she should also be punished. She has to be my wife for the rest of her life. Humph,

she didn’t recognize me at the first time.

‘By the way, Seraphina has become timid and cautious over the years. She speaks in a much softer

voice. But now she stands there with her eyes full of confidence. Looks like she has not changed at all.

She is still the little-known yet confident girl I used to know.’

“It’s time for me to show up.”

Putting down the glass, Seraphina looked back at Dashiell.

Dashiell nodded. “Remember, I’m here.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Although Seraphina didn’t intend to let Dashiell help her deal with the problem in person, Dashiell’s

words still gave her great reassurance.

Seraphina nodded gratefully, opened the door of the VIP room, and walked out.

The venue was still chaotic. Julian seemed to have become the head of those people who kept urging

the host.

Vivian couldn’t hide the triumph in her eyes. She had never been like this, standing beside Julian and

feeling as if she had become the focus of the crowd.

The host frowned until someone ran to the stage and whispered something in his ear.

The host unfurrowed his eyebrows and turned to Julian. “Initially, the organizers refrained from

exposing the plagiarists out of consideration for their feelings, but since everyone strongly requested to

expose the two companies and their entries, the organizers decided to do as everyone requested.”

“A plagiarist is a thief. What is the point of showing consideration for such a thief? We should resist

plagiarism together!”

Julian was in high spirits. He knew he wasn’t the one who plagiarized.

Since Julian wasn’t, he would naturally not let the plagiarist go easily. After the news about today’s

incident was exposed tomorrow, Prosperian Company would attract more attention and become

famous. He seemed to have seen a bright future and countless wealth.

The host glanced at Julian and adjusted the microphone. “In this competition, two companies submitted

the same perfume, which was named First Love.”

Hearing this, Vivian was stunned. Julian, however, pretended to be shocked. “First Love? It is the name

of our Prosperian Company’s entry. Which company used the same name and product? What a

coincidence!”

Julian looked around while speaking, pretending to be trying to find out the head of that company from

the people present.

At this point, the host stopped keeping the crowd guessing. “Yes. One of them is Prosperian Company,

and the other one is Aroma Delight.”

“Aroma Delight?” Julian was puzzled. “With all due respect… I haven’t heard about it in the perfume

industry.”

Julian looked modest, but he was ecstatic in his heart. He thought Aroma Delight was just a small

company. He hadn’t heard about it. Nor did he care about it. He just wanted to take this chance to send

his company to the center of public attention.

“Aroma Delight? Isn’t it a branch of Apex Corporation? It was just founded last year.”

Someone was familiar with the companies in the industry and immediately thought of something about

Aroma Delight.

“Yeah, I’ve also heard about it. Although it is newly established, it is still a promising company as it has

Apex Corporation back it.”

“I see. I wonder if the representative of Aroma Delight is here. It took my team three months to develop

First Love. I want to know how Aroma Delight got it.”

Julian’s words were tantamount to a direct conviction for the Aroma Delight’s plagiarism.

At this moment, a gentleman came on stage. “Good evening, everyone. I’m the public relations

manager of Aroma Delight. My name is Karter Hanson. I was also shocked when I heard about the

incident about two products with high similarities, particularly when one of them is said to be from our

company.

“Initially, we were willing to respect the opinions of the organizers of this competition and check and

solve the problem in private. However, since Prosperian Company did not agree, we accept an on-site

examination.”

Karter’s politeness and steady voice impressed the people present. As they were in awe of Apex

Corporation, most people nodded.

Seeing this, Julian said rudely, “I also agree to have an on-site examination. Although our Prosperian

Company is small, it can stand the test.”

“Yes! First Love was made by me, and I’m curious to know why there is a copy,” Vivian added with a

sincere and eager expression.

For a moment, it was really hard to tell who was lying. The crowd could only look at the host.

Karter was calm. He said, “I have handed over the preparation records and R&D data of the entries as

well as the particulars of their characteristics to the organizers. I believe there will be a fair judgment.”

“Well, we have already handed those materials to the organizers too. I believe that professional judges

will be able to tell who is the plagiarist,” Julian sneered and said with a serious look.

“The judges have already had the results,” the host said. After receiving an envelope, the host looked

at Julian first and asked, “Mr. Brown, can I ask you something? I heard that First Love was prepared

and developed by Ms. Garcia, the product director of your company, right?”

“Yes.” Julian nodded affirmatively. “Vivi is the best perfumer in our company and has a certain

reputation in the industry. She also developed several of our best-selling products before.”

The host nodded and looked at Karter. “Mr. Hanson, who developed the perfume you submitted to

attend the competition?”

Karter smiled and said, “It happens that the perfumer behind First Love is here today. I’m honored to

introduce her to you.”

As Karter stretched his arms sideways, a woman slowly walked on the stage from behind.
