When Love Turns to Ashes

Chapter 40 Not the Same World

This turn of events was indeed unexpected by Beatrice.

Madelynn spared no effort to suppress her.

Who copied whom, Madelynn knows better than anyone else, and now she is being falsely accused of plagiarism.

"You have used this word so well.

With the reminder from the reporter, Beatrice had already seen Madelynn's design draft. Admitting to borrowing means she admitted that Madelynn is more talented than herself, so her competition entry should also borrow from Madelynn's.

If she doesn't admit to plagiarism, then she is stubbornly denying it, which is not honorable at all for the second place.

Madelynn intervened, saying, "Everyone, please stop saying that. It is an honor for me to be able to be a reference for Beatrice."

Then, with a sad expression on her face, she said, "But this time, I added the element of the sun in my work because I compared the sun to Mr. Caden. With his light, everything becomes so wonderful. Being borrowed like this, it does make me feel a little uncomfortable." She blushed slightly and looked shy as she spoke.

I use the sun, and you use the star and the moon. Isn't this clearly intentional? It's a pity that Ms. Bradford is generous, but some people don't appreciate it and refuse to admit it. As the words fell, Beatrice chuckled lightly, finding it amusing.

Madelynn pursed her lips and reminded, "Beatrice, everyone is talking about this competition. Why are you bringing up something else?"

Upon hearing this, the journalist's morale soared and retorted, "Yeah, in this game, only you two used aerial themes. Is there any problem with me asking like this?"

Beatrice stared at the two of them and calmly said, "Since you think it's a reference, then tell me why I didn't use the sun and the moon, but insisted on using the star and the moon?"

Reporter was confused and asked, "What do you mean?"

Beatrice looked up at the camera and said slowly, "The sun belongs to the daytime, never to the night, let alone the stars and the moon. Why should something from different worlds be put. together?" The scene fell silent.

They are not even in the same world, so there is no possibility of any reference Caden turned his head to look at Beatrice, his eyes dark and terrifying, chilling to the bone. Beatrice clenched her fist to steady herself.

She asked Madelynn, "Ms. Bradford, your jewelry collection is so vast, but there is only a tiny unt of sunlight element. So, Mr. Caden is so small in your heart? This little radiance cannot illuminate your universe. If you love Mr. Caden so deeply, shouldn't the sun be the main focus? Beatrice threw the question to Madelynn.

The camera of the journalist also focused on Madelynn.
