Chapter 1090:
The designers around her nodded in agreement. This had been their first lesson in becoming skilled designers, and clearly, it had been Allisonâs first lesson as well.
Melany, sensing something was off, quickly turned to Abram.
Not wanting to leave a negative impression on Fabian, she pressed, âWhatâs really going on here?â
Abram was silent, his cold sweat now visible as he struggled to find a way out of the situation.
âThen, I have no choice but to reveal the truth,â Abram said, his voice trembling with a growing sense of panic.
He knew deep down that his understanding of the designs could never compare to Allisonâs, the true artist behind them.
âThe reason Ms. Clarke knows these shoes so well,â he said, his voice carefully controlled, âis because she used to work as one of our studioâs designers.â
Abramâs thoughts raced. The answer came quickly â there was no one left from that time who would stand up for Allison. The studio was now his, and no employee would dare go against him.
When he finished speaking, the room buzzed with surprise.
âNo wonder Ms. Clarkeâs designs are so remarkable â she was one of SAMSARAâs designers!â someone exclaimed.

âBut I donât recall hearing her name before,â another person added.
âShe must have been an early member of the team. I heard SAMSARA had some internal conflicts back then, and many people left.â
SAMSARA was a renowned studio in Leswington, with designers highly coveted by top companies. It was astonishing to think that someone as young as Allison had once been part of such an elite team.
Abramâs next words hit even harder. He raised his voice, pointing at Allison. âBut these designs arenât hers! I admit we took some inspiration, but it came from an older designer we worked with at the studio. Later, Ms. Clarke was dismissed for plagiarizing othersâ work.â
The statement landed heavily, and the tension in the room was palpable. Abram paused deliberately, watching the room react with growing disbelief.
âThatâs right!â he declared. âMs. Clarke is nothing but a plagiarist!â
With SAMSARAâs reputation behind him, his words carried weight. And since there was no evidence left from that time, his claims would be hard to disprove. As a prominent figure, his words held considerable sway over public opinion.
âShe built her reputation by stealing othersâ hard work,â Abram continued confidently, âand was expelled for it.â
He turned to Allison, his expression challenging. âGo ahead, deny it. I can call witnesses from the studio right nowâpeople who will confirm what Iâve said.â
The implied threat was clear. Allison knew that the employees Abram referred to would side with him. Protecting SAMSARAâs reputation would take precedence over defending her.
Melany, feigning concern, spoke up with a seemingly innocent tone. âAllison, I canât believe this. You must have been framed, right?â
