Three Treasures: Spoiled Wife Goes Wild-Chapter 1678: Is This Plagiarism

Because of Charlotte Thompson’s brand, it has been affected.

Riley Group’s subsidiaries naturally couldn’t escape, and the recently rising stock price plummeted instantly.

The online discussions were heated, and Riley Group was naturally in emergency operation.

And now, the most anxious are naturally Charlotte Thompson’s team.

"How could plagiarism occur? These drafts were clearly original works by Miss Thompson. I believe Miss Thompson would never do such a thing."

Elijah Walker has always been a supporter of Charlotte, but that doesn’t mean the rest of the team shares his views.

"But the evidence online is very clear. Those design drafts are clearly works from several years ago, and they weren’t signed by Miss Thompson. It’s obvious..."

"What’s obvious!"

Elijah Walker retorted without hesitation, "These design drawings might have been forged or aged. They don’t prove anything."

"Elijah Walker, the facts are right in front of us. There’s no need to support Miss Thompson so vehemently. Besides, plagiarism is not so uncommon in the fashion world, right?"

The sarcastic tone of the designer’s words made Elijah Walker so angry that he stood up from his chair, attracting everyone’s attention with his sudden movement.

"What, Elijah Walker, are you going to hit me?"

The male designer raised his neck defiantly, "I get it, Miss Thompson has already elevated you to this position. Following Charlotte Thompson, you must have benefited quite a bit, right?"

Elijah Walker, who isn’t good with words, turned red with anger but couldn’t utter a single sentence in response, which only fueled others’ arrogance.

Just as the male designer was about to say something else, his shoulder was suddenly pressed down by a folder.

"It seems everyone is on time." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Charlotte Thompson’s voice came from behind the male designer, instantly making him freeze in place.

"Miss Thompson."

Elijah Walker looked up at Charlotte Thompson in front of him, just about to say something but was stopped by Charlotte raising her hand.

Charlotte had just taken her seat when someone couldn’t wait to ask:

"Miss Thompson, you must have seen the news online. Is this matter true? Is the company going to respond immediately?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone’s gaze focused on Charlotte Thompson’s face.

"This is also the matter to be announced at today’s meeting. The company’s decision is to temporarily suspend all releases and activities of the brand."

The crowd burst into an uproar, and their gazes at Charlotte Thompson deepened with more meaning.

Whether the design drafts were plagiarized or not, they had no way of knowing.

But now that the company had issued such an order, wasn’t it indirectly admitting fault on Charlotte Thompson’s part?

"Miss Thompson, that’s impossible!" Elijah Walker rebuffed emotionally.

"There’s nothing impossible about it. This is merely the company’s command. Besides, the company is now in the spotlight, and continuing brand promotion under such media pressure is indeed not very suitable."

Charlotte answered calmly, her face giving no indication of her inner thoughts at that moment.

"So the tasks here will temporarily be set aside, and the design department will assign new tasks to you individually."

Charlotte gave simple instructions and then announced the end of the meeting.
