Sweet Revenge

Chapter 7

Chapter 7:Not in the future

The crowd was stunned.

Few people knew where Silvia had gone after she disappeared from the business, let alone her

relationship with Ladarius.

At this moment, the most excited were the journalists.

They thought their assignment would be a normal press release tonight, but the twist of plagiarism

and then betrayal was wonderful to think about.

Silvia watched him walk towards her and said in a sorrowful tone,

“You are a part of V.L. When did you climb the high branch to another company, and how could you not even inform me?

And… you took away my company’s product by the way?”

His voice was not too loud, but on the side was the inicrophone, enough so that the whole room

could clearly hear what he was saying.

“So it’s a traitor, then it’s no wonder there’s such a thing as plagiarism,” someone said with a

sudden realization.

“She was held in high regard when she first competed. I remember when she won the newcomer

award, the media that bragged about it, and what happened? Heh…”

“Company secrets were stolen but it is against the law, this can be reported to the police!”

“The perfumer not only has no nose, she also has no conscience. She looks pretty – did not expect the hands and feet to be so dirty!”

Ladarius’ heart was filled with triumph. Although he didn’t know what was going on yet, at least, he

saved the present crisis.

Turning to the head of Carmelo, he looked at him as a victor and said, “I think your company may

not have understood what was going on and was deceived by someone.

It’s not your company’s fault, it’s just a misunderstanding.

However, we all know that the work belongs to the creator himself, so it is obvious that ‘First Love’ is our company’s work.”

“Mr.Ladarius just said…” A voice that raised steeply interrupted his words.

Keeping a bland smile, Silvia turned sideways to look at Ladarius and asked with a self-effacing

expression, “Saying that I’m from V.L?”

She was too calm, so calm that Ladarius’ heart was a little bit inexplicably panicked.

But with so many people watching, he settled down and said, “Not anymore. I’m sorry about what happened today.”

Silvia laughed, as if she had heard something funny, and continued to ask, “Not anymore… Was I before?”

Ladarius was interrupted by her before she could speak,

“Mr.Ladarius, I never seem to have signed any contract with you or V.L. Do we have a written

agreement? Or did you pay me a salary? Do you have any proof?”

“Proof? The whole company of V.L. can prove that you are a V.L. employee, what proof do you

need?”

“In other words, there is none?”

Ladarius couldn’t catch his breath with his lightly spoken words

At the beginning, he believed in Silvia’s loyalty and did not sign any labor contract at all, just afraid

that she would say something in the future.

As for the salary, it was not accurate. When he was in a good mood,

he would directly transfer her a thousand or eight hundred. Anyway, she didn’t care about the

money. the rent was deducted from his card every month. he didn’t have any expenses. He even

provided her food. And this talk of “no salary”…

But now, Silvia made this grand jump to another company. He can not stand for that, but going to

court would also be an unreasonable action.

“We have nothing we need to prove to you,” Vivienne, who had been standing on the stage, sulked and said nonchalantly.

She raised her chin and looked at Silvia with arrogance, “This is not a place for you to create a scene. For the sake of our old friendship, I will not continue to embarass you, but now, please

leave.”

Vivienne’s words seemed to wake Ladarius up. He stepped forward, reached out, and squeezed her cuffs without moving. His eyes were fixed on her.

“Silvia, no matter what misunderstanding there is between us, lets go back and talk.”

He warned her with his eyes that If she still wanted to continue to maintain their relationship, she had to listen to him. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Unfortunately for him, the Silvia of today was not the same as she was yesterday.

“Mr.Ladarius, how can you and Miss Vivienne not defend your rights since you have already decided that you are the victim of plagiarism? We have this competition, but it is very fair and just.”

Taking a step backward, she smoothly broke away from his hand and turned to look at the host with a smile, “Our side has already handed over the data information and samples of ‘First Love’ to the organizing committee, so I believe there will be a fair result.”

“Wait a minute!” Raising a hand, Ladarius raised his head, “Given that Miss Silvia worked for our company before, it is entirely possible for her to get the data sheet and samples. If the information is exactly the same, how is that conclusive?”

In his heart, he had no idea.

After all, the data and samples were given by Silvia, and it was simply inevitable that the two copies would be identical.

If he could not stop her now, he could only give up on her and seize the first opportunity to get everyone to decide that she, Silvia, was the thief who betrayed her master, and save the situation today,

At this time, someone to the host’s side whispered a few words, and the host straightened up.

He looked to Ladarius, “For this point, Mr. Ladarius does not need to worry, the judges have already had the results, and… two sides of the information and sample data, although very similar, are not exactly the same. There are still some differences.”

“Oh?” Ladarius was surprised.

And Vivienne was already a little disturbed. Not the same? How could it be different?

Although the people around her were focused on the stage, they subconsciously moved away from her some distance, and she could vaguely smell that strange smell herself, and was too embarrassed to make too much movement.

“”The judges have already made up their minds about the First Love’ entry. The winning party is, Carmelo representative party.”

Not even a little bit of hesitation, it was straightforwardly announced.

It was such a direct statement that Ladarius’ face turned white.

“Impossible!” He lost his voice, “This is impossible! Our company has been developing for so long and invested so much effort and financial resources, how could they win? ‘First Love’ is ours, V.L. We have thie proof!”

“Because Carmelo has Warin as a supporter, you cannot discredit a tiny business like ours; doing so

would be unfair to the sector’s entrants.

The rival accomplished this today, but despite the fact that our modest company was not as strong, we are nonetheless serious about the perfume industry.

This doesn’t just chill the heart of V.L., but also all the small and medium-sized businesses who toil as hard as we do but are repressed!”

The words of Ladarius touched a lot of people in the industry.

In the whole environment, the leading giants were, after all, a minority, and many small companies constantly participate in such and such competitions and presentations, just to step by step improve the visibility, expand the market, and gradually grow.

But if they were really suppressed, it was likely that all their efforts will be in vain.

“Yes, since the two works are similar, why is Carmelo winning?”

“Mr. Ladarius should call the police!”

Silvia raised her eyebrows and looked at Ladarius, who was standing there with an aura of righteousness that made people unconsciously really believe him.

“Mr.Ladarius keeps talking about evidence, then I’ll show Mr.Ladarius the evidence.” Silvia turned sideways and took two tiny bottles from Carmelo’s people.
