C54 The Show Has Just Begun!

Reece's words instantly caused an uproar in the entire venue.

Copycat!

Viola was suspected of plagiarism!

At that moment, the media's focus shifted from Lydia to Viola, who was sitting on the seat.

Facing the camera, Viola's brain was about to explode.

She was extremely anxious in her heart.

Soon, tears welled up in her eyes. "Reece, I know that you want to protect your sister from being attacked, but... you can't just pour dirty water on me just to save her."

With just a few words, Viola managed to bring the problem back to Lydia.

What Reece had said about her plagiarism had turned out to be a threat to protect her.

Reece was surprised by Viola's ability to change the tides.

It turned out that Viola was not as weak as she looked.

In fact, she was extremely shrewd.

She could kill people without batting an eyelid.

He tilted his head to look at Lydia and said, "No wonder you rejected this sister of yours. This woman is not simple."

"..."

Lydia was speechless, but she agreed with him in her heart.

Indeed, Viola was not simple.

It was a pity that she had been tricked to death by Viola.

After a moment of absent-mindedness, she glanced at the pair of big hands on her shoulder.

She took advantage of the media's attention to take a step to the right, intending to pull the distance between them, but in the next second, she was pulled back to the man's side. "Just stay here."

"..." She frowned.

Just as she was about to retort, she saw that the media was pointing their cameras at the two of them again. She swallowed her words.

In front of the media, they still had to act like a loving couple.

This was not only related to the stocks of the Tillman family.

Furthermore, her parents would inevitably see it if they were to appear on the media. Old Mr. Tillman would see it too. For the sake of her loved ones, she still chose to cooperate.

"Sister!" Suddenly, Viola grabbed her with tears in her eyes. "Please help me out. Don't let brother-in-law treat me this way. I don't want this ranking anymore. Please give me a way out."

Tears fell from Viola's eyes, and her pitiful appearance made me want to pity her.

One by one, they were all deceived by Viola's weak image. The spectators were all on Viola's side.

"Viola, I don't think my husband is targeting you." Lydia coldly pulled her hand back and tightly held Reece's arm. She smiled sweetly. "I believe my husband. He is not someone who does things based on hearsay. Since he said that he copied it, then he must have evidence."

"At this point, everyone is curious about the truth. Why don't we take out your and my works to compare?" Lydia smiled and looked at Viola.

She could clearly feel the confidence in Viola's eyes diminishing.

Viola did not dare to say anything.

"This..."

Just as Viola was about to say something, Lydia ignored her. She raised her head and looked at the man beside her. "Hubby, can you show me and Viola's works? I want to compare them in front of the public!"

His words were filled with sugar.

His thin lips could not help but curl up. "Alright, whatever you want."

At this moment, Loran, who had been standing at the side the whole time, was stunned.

He had almost been blinded by his own brother's words. He really wanted to ask him if he was wrong. Was this what he meant when he said that he couldn't possibly fall in love with her?

"Sixth Bro, your face is slapping me!"

Loran could not help but mutter.

Suddenly, someone on the stage turned to look at him.

Loran's heart skipped a beat. His body tensed up, and his chest pounded. His heart was in a mess. It was impossible. Even his brother could hear him whispering in his ear.

It was like hearing a thousand miles away!

"Loran, go and bring out the works of Viola and Lydia. Put them on the big screen."

Luckily, he didn't hear it.

Loran quickly calmed down and walked to the stage. He inserted an USB into the computer and immediately, the big screen on the stage showed a contestant's work.

"Wow... This design is simply beautiful!"

"That's right, that's right! It's beautiful, exquisite, low-profile yet noble at the same time. This is the most perfect design I've seen so far!" In an instant, two seniors in the industry praised the painting.

Since the seniors were so appreciative, the crowd also looked at the painting.

After a round of appraisal, most of them were conquered by the painting.

"This is definitely the winner of the competition!" A senior in the design industry was certain of the answer.

"That's right, that's right!"

"I agree. It's very difficult for anyone to surpass such a delicate design."

Seeing that everyone was praising the design, the corner of Lydia's mouth curled up. She picked up the microphone and her gaze fell on Viola, who was beside her. "V Viola, this painting is yours, right?"

"...Yes." Viola nodded, but her heart was inexplicably tense.

"It seems that there is something fishy about this! The exquisite design actually didn't get a place in the competition!" The senior who had just asserted the answer was instantly disappointed. He shook his head and sighed. "Hey, now that the design competition has been corroded by the stink of copper!"

"Elder Lin is right!" Seeing this, Cass quickly agreed, "Some insects have mixed up the original design competition. This industry is truly heartbreaking!"

In the eyes of the crowd, Lydia had become a moneybags.

She was a pest that had tarnished the original design competition.

At that moment, some of the audience started to point fingers at the stage.

"Look, it's good to have a rich husband."

"That's right. Not only do you have a few years less to work on, but you can also spend money to buy a higher education certificate and a big prize... Tsk, tsk!"

Lydia's taunts didn't affect her at all.

She raised her head and looked at Viola's painting, but she burst out laughing. "Pfft … Is this considered a good design?"

"Lydia, are you doubting the opinions of the senior designers?" Cass frowned. He was extremely uncomfortable with her attitude. "If you have the ability, show us your work and let us all see it! Let the seniors judge!"

"Right, Lydia, show us your design!" Old Lin looked at Lydia unhappily.

"Elder Lin, don't be anxious. I will let everyone see my work, but..." Lydia paused, then narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Previously, I wanted everyone to see another work."

"What work?" Elder Lin frowned.

"The design of a designer from C Nation, Riley, last month," Lydia said slowly, her eyes falling on Viola, who was beside her.

When she heard the name Lariani, Viola's face turned pale and her hands tightened around her waist.

She looked at Viola calmly, but her eyes turned cold.

Viola panicked.

Heh, the good show had just begun!
