Although the contestants were already exhausted and reluctant to continue competing, some held onto the hope that if Haley really had cheated, the additional competition would expose her. The design competition strictly prohibited plagiarism and cheating. Anyone caught would be disqualified and banned for three years. This was a huge temptation for those who wanted to win.After much deliberation, most of them agreed to the additional round. Only Stella's face turned pale when she heard about the new competition."I disagree! Why should we all suffer for one person's mistake?"Haley narrowed her eyes slightly, her cool voice tinged with a hint of coldness. "I am the victim here, am I not?""Don't change the subject. We just finished one round and are already exhausted. We're not in the best condition to compete again.""I am also exhausted. Besides, I completed two design sketches in the same amount of time, so if anyone should be more tired, it should be me, right?"Stella sta

Everyone accepted Haley as the winner without any objections, having witnessed her extraordinary talent firsthand. Even Louis, fell silent unwillingly.At that moment, a deep, cold voice echoed from the audience, “Before the competition ends, I have something to say.”All eyes turned to the source of the voice, and when they saw Shane’s stern face, they were stunned."Mr. Shane Ford?"The judges frowned, unsure of his intentions. Professor Wood glanced at Haley on stage before asking, "Mr. Ford, could this wait until the competition ends?"Shane glanced at him briefly, his lips barely moving as he replied, "No."Professor Wood wiped the sweat from his brows, asking, "So, what does Mr. Ford intend to say?"Shane stood up and made his way to the stage, his imposing presence causing the room to fall silent. Everyone watched in confusion, including Haley.Shane stopped in front of Haley and looked toward Louis. “I heard this competition prides itself on fairness and integrity, with

Professor Wood who was always a man of integrity, was so furious. His chest heaved as he pointed at Louis and scolded, "How could you be so foolish? Cheating is absolutely forbidden. You're ruining your own future!"Louis, unable to lift his head, pressed his lips together and remained silent. He had acted impulsively, fueled by alcohol and Stella's overly enthusiastic advances that night. In the heat of the moment, he agreed to everything. Although he had regretted it afterward, it was too late to turn back.Stella was equally terrified, her face pale and almost devoid of color. The disapproving and disgusted looks from the audience told her that everything was over. She had come here simply to take revenge on Haley, but instead, she had destroyed her own reputation.Lost in her thoughts, she was suddenly jolted by an icy, stern voice announcing, "After a unanimous decision by the organizers and judges, Stella is disqualified from the competition, and Mr. Louis will no longer be em

Haley and Shane exchanged a glance, immediately guessing that Jenny was thinking about James. Henry noticed the shift in mood too and cleared his throat, "Eat up, everyone. Eat more."He added food to Jenny's plate, trying to cheer her up.Jenny, understanding that everyone was concerned about her, smiled faintly. "I'm fine. Everyone's been through a bad breakup when they were young, right? I've moved on."Haley put down her utensils and said softly, "Jenny, no matter what happens, I'll always be on your side.""Yeah, I know," Jenny replied with a smile.Henry tried to lighten the mood. "It's such a good day. Why bring up that jerk? Eat more. If it's not enough, I'll have the hotel send more dishes."With Henry's efforts, the atmosphere at the table became lively again.After sending off their friends, it was already past midnight. Haley was exhausted and collapsed onto the sofa.Shane looked at her lazy and relaxed posture, unable to suppress a smile. "Tired? Let’s go upstai

Ten minutes later, everyone reluctantly gathered in the conference room. When they saw Haley's cold, expressionless face, they felt a sinking feeling of dread.Hearing the footsteps, Haley turned her head toward the door. Seeing them standing there without coming in, she raised an eyebrow. "What? Is there a monster inside?""No, no!"Everyone shook their heads vigorously, afraid Haley might get angry.Once they were seated, no one dared to breathe too loudly, fearing Haley might settle scores.However, five minutes passed, and Haley had not said a word.

I apologize for my past mistakes."Seeing this, others followed suit, standing up and apologizing one by one. Their voices were so loud that even with the conference room's good soundproofing, people in the hallway could hear them.
