Chapter 20 âI did plagiarize.â
âHowever... itâs not the kind of plagiarism you think. I plagiarized my own project.â
âTwo years ago, I worked as a volunteer designer in Croatia, which is the hotel project youâre referring to.
Cathy was my name when I first arrived abroad.â
This document is a certificate issued by the Croatian hotel, and itâs already published on the Snow familyâs official website for everyone to verify.â
As soon as she finished speaking, the room erupted in chaos.
The media loved a spectacle and wouldnât leave emptyâhanded without a scandal.
Curiosity piqued as they noted the interaction between Jean and Berton.
âMr. Snow, there are rumors that Vivian was once your fiancée. Is there personal interest in adopting her design?â
âMr. Snow, have you and Miss Byron secretly obtained a marriage certificate? She was seen at Mr.
Snowâs grandfatherâs funeral, possibly as a granddaughterâinâlaw?â
âVivian, Mr. Snow, please respond!â
Berton noticed the flashbulbs bothering Jeanâs eyes and immediately stood protectively beside her.
This action only fueled the mediaâs wild speculation.
âIâd like to clarify that I have no relationship with Miss Byron, nor is it as the public speculates.â
Berton glanced at Jean, who felt an ominous premonition.
âAnd Vivian is the person I am currently pursuing.
The Snow family adopted her design strictly following the bidding process, without any favoritism.
Please give us some personal space. This press conference is concluded.â

The media refused to relent, pressing forward to extract more news.
Berton ordered security to block them.
Winni replayed the press conference video repeatedly, watching Berton defend Jean with jealousy boiling inside her.
She smashed everything in the room, creating a cacophony of noise.
The housekeeper dared not speak until Winniâs father returned and knocked on her door.
âDad, didnât you say she would definitely be guilty of plagiarism?
Whatâs wrong with your people handling this? If Berton finds out I reported her for plagiarism, he wonât want to be with me!â
âDaughter, look at how hard youâve worked for the Snow family recently. What benefits have you gained?
Now he publicly defends her, clearly showing he doesnât value our family. Why do you cling to Berton?
With your family background and beauty, what kind of man canât you have? Besides, you were the one who wanted to go abroad. Now you regret it?â
âDad! I was the first to go abroad, but now Iâm back! I donât care! I want to be with Berton, so please help me!â
Just as Winniâs father was about to agree to her request, Berton called him, saying there would be a board meeting tomorrow and asked him to bring Winni along.
A sense of foreboding crept into his heart, but he still comforted his daughter. âAlright, even if my daughter wants the stars in the sky, I can pluck them for you!â
The next morning, Winni dressed beautifully and accompanied her father to the office.

âWhat are you doing here?â
Winni knew this was Bertonâs office and, though confused, she managed to control herself from acting out.
Jean was equally perplexed.
