Chapter 32

The reporters started getting excited about the gossip. After listening to Nathaniel’s words and
seeingLily smiling warmly, they thought the matter would be settled and not have any more juicy
information.

Oh, but the tables had turned! Lily had indirectly slapped Nathaniel’s face in front of everyone! The
reporters’focal lengths immediately aimed at Nathaniel's swiftly ashen face while Lily appeared calm.

The duo’s expressions greatly contrasted with each other.

“Ms.Christian, you mean to say you didn’t plagiarize Ms.Thayer's work, but she plagiarized yours
instead?" Someone immediately asked.

Lily smiled, “I would like to correct your words.

The word plagiarism means counterfeiting and is also an act of infringement.

Although such actions are unacceptable, there is a procedure for self-reprocessing.

In addition to plagiarism, there is another act called snatching, which means taking something and
changing itinto one's own." "Isn't that stealing?" The reporter replied.

Lily just laughed and didn’t respond.

"Lily, what do you mean?!" The crowd turned their heads.

Nathaniel raised his arms to half cover his face and spoke directly to Lily.

He looked unpleasant as he gnashed his teeth.



Nathaniel wished he could snap back but could not attack or even make a sound in front of so many
people.

However, Lily did not even look at him.

She looked calmly at the reporters before her, resembling a general who pointed out the battlefield.

“As you said, Ms.

Christian, you didn't sign any contracts with MN Inc., meaning you’re not one of their employees.

How can you prove that you developed MN Inc.'s products yourself? Do you have any evidence?” The
reporterswere vigilant and could always find core issues with this matter.

Still, they did not take sides, wanting to ask saucy questions and dig for more information to write hard
hitting news.

Lily was about to answer the doubtful questions when Melanie, beside her, took the lead, “Whatdo you
mean by those words, Lily? Do you mean I stole your creativity and product?” "Ms.

Thayer, shouldn't we be clearer about what's between us?" Lily asked calmly with a faint smile across
her face.

Lily had always been tepid, from entering the stage to sitting down to answering reporters’ questions.

There seemed to be no emotional fluctuations as her voice was clear and soft but had a forcethat none
could ignore.

She mixed such a rhetorical question with a strong smell of gunpowder, instantly causing a riot among
the reporters in the venue.



Melanie revealed a furious expression as she clenched her slender fingers into fists.

Even though she was smiling, it was a forced one.

She tried to be as professional as possible while gritting her teeth, asking, “I don’t quite
understandwhat you mean, Lily.

Can you be more specific?”.

The reporters suppressed their excitement and tightly held their cameras and recording pens, fearing
missing the tiniest details.
