Chapter 12

Violet immediately put on an act, wearing a look of sadness. “Russell, at this point, you’re still blaming me. It seems that I can’t rely on you to help me seek justice. Well, you’re married to Veronica, so why would you help me anyway?”

Her words almost made Russell spit out blood in anger.

A reporter quickly asked, “Miss Webb, how did you think of keeping your original design drafts? After all, Veronica has already used them in the competition. wouldn’t have made much sense to keep them. If you really wanted to sue her, you probably would have done it countless times over the past two years, right?” Violet couldn’t help but rub her eyes as if trying to squeeze out tears. “Actually, I kept the original design drafts as a memento. After all, they were my own creations, and I just wanted to have something to look back on. But I never thought that they would come in handy like this!”

Violet continued, looking even more aggrieved, “I never even thought of suing Veronica before. As for the design drafts, I was always willing to give her some whenever she asked me for them. But I never expected that she would sue me. I’m truly devastated!”

Another reporter chimed in, “Miss Webb, at your press conference two days ago, you said that you would trust Russell and that you had a good relationship with him. At that time, you didn’t know he had already married Veronica, did you?“– With tears in her eyes, Violet nodded and replied, “I said that because I didn’t know the truth. It wasn’t until a friend of mine sent me the photo of them coming out of the city hall that I found out I had been cheated!”

After saying this, Violet looked at the enraged Russell, who was on the verge of collapsing. “Russell, I trusted you so much. I even announced at the press conference that we were getting married. Why did you lie to me?”

Russell was trembling with anger. Violet must have known that he was married at that time. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so well–prepared. “What a despicable b*tch!” he cursed in his heart.

Another reporter asked, “By the way, Miss Webb, how did you manage to get so many audio and video recordings?”

Violet hesitated for a second and then said somewhat sheepishly, “Actually, I’ve always had a habit of recording. When I’m bored, I like to listen to Russell’s voice!”

Violet almost vomited from her own words, but for the sake of her acting at the moment, she held back the disgust in her heart. “As for the videos, well, there are always hidden cameras near my seat because I had many design drafts go missing before!”

After she finished speaking, a reporter immediately speculated, “It must have been Russell and Veronica who took them. They stole your design drafts just like they

were taking their own!”

Violet sniffled sadly, looking pitiful like a swaying sapling in the wind. “I didn’t know. I always trusted Russell. But I never expected that he had already married Veronica and kept me in the dark, just to take my design drafts, again and again…” After saying this, Violet wiped away a tear with her sleeve.

Almost everyone thought that Violet was crying. That made sense. To any woman in this world, knowing her husband cheated on her was definitely torture. Russell lost his temper completely, disregarding the present situation, and angrily jumped up, bellowing, “Violet Webb, you despicable b*tch! You clearly knew the truth all along! I’m going to kill you!”

Violet retreated in a pitiful manner, and immediately, two righteous men grabbed Russell and stopped him.

The reporters in their seats were enjoying the commotion, taking photos and whispering to each other.

“How can there be such a shameless man?”

“He truly tarnishes the reputation of all men in this city. Anyway, this son of a b*tch needs a lesson. He’s not even worthy of being called a man.”

“At this point, he still wants to hit Miss Webb! Miss Webb is so pitiful. Why would she fall in love with such a bastard in the first place? I don’t understand.”

“Yeah, that’s right. Next time I meet this motherfucker on the street, I’ll definitely punch him in the face! What do you guys think?”

Hearing these words, Violet couldn’t help but smirk. She covered her face and ran to the back of the stage, and almost everyone thought that Violet was in extreme pain and didn’t want anyone to see her heartbroken state.

Russell completely lost control, breaking free from the two people holding him, and chased after Violet.

With fewer people backstage, Russell caught up to Violet and bellowed without any restraint, “Violet, let me tell you. Don’t think you’ve won. Just wait and see. You’re still the designer working for Oceanen Jewelry, and I’ll sue you until you’re bankrupt!”

Upon hearing this, Violet couldn’t help but turn around and sneer at Russell. While speaking, she stepped back. “Is that so? Oh, I’m so scared!”

She wasn’t paying attention, and as a result, she bumped into someone’s arms.

Then, she heard a deep, hoarse voice saying, “Is that so? Well, show me how you’ll bankrupt the designer of Foreverie Jewelry!”
