Chapter 1545

"l-l let my emotions get the better of me. I didn't think it through. And, Barbara manipulated me. She's the one who plagiarized Maggie's work. If you want to hold someone accountable, she's the one."

Chad shifted the blame onto Barbara, trying to distance himself.

Stella did not believe his nonsense. She knew that Barbara would not act brazenly if no one backed her up behind the scenes.

Barbara grew anxious before Stella could say anything. "Mr. Benson, I came here at your request. Why are you pushing everything on me?"

'What a fool! Does she think that her previous outburst wasn't enough?' Chad's voice was stern. "What do you mean you came at my request? Don't be silly. When you gave me the design, you told me it was your original work. That's why I put my position on the line and help you fight for your rights. But, it turns out that you have deceived me. I literally said so many good things about you to the boss earlier. Now, you need to go back and explain everything to him yourself."

Chad had made his hint quite clear. He wanted Barbara to admit to the plagiarism but not drag the company down with her. That way, he could help her keep her job.
