Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 86

Jessica stood there and said proudly, "It took me a lot of effort to draw this work at that time, so I remember it very well. Natalia, you might have seen my work and it might have a deep impression on your mid, but you can’t possibly remember it better than I do, since I was the one who drew it. I think you’d better give up. You can't redraw it better than me."

Natalia smiled, "Is that so?"

"Of course. You can ask the headmaster if you’re not convinced."

"Mr. Wright, is that so?"

Shew looked at Natalia in shock, with a strange expression on his face.

Jessica thought she was right. Natalia was such a fool that she had already totally forgotten the design draft five years ago. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come up with such a stupid idea to try to remember the details by redrawing it before the competition.

Therefore, the strange expression of the headmaster must be because he had found out that the painting Natalia drew was totally different from the draft five years ago!

Thinking of this, Jessica couldn't help but feel more confident.

Archie said in a low voice, "Well, let's announce the result! We should tell them whose work is real."

Jessica stood straight with confidence and waited for them to call her name.

However...

The three examiners said at the same time, "Natalia Dawson."

"What?"

Everyone exclaimed in disbelief.

Shew repeated awkwardly, "Yes. After careful comparison, Natalia's drawing is almost identical to the work of five years ago, while Jessica’s ... is barely similar."

"How could this be?"

Jessica rushed to the laptop in disbelief.

When she saw the two pieces of design with the same color but completely different contents, she was stunned.

How could this be?

The two drawings were totally different!

Except for the main color, blue and white, they had nothing in common, neither style nor details.

How was that possible?

An idea occurred to her.

Suddenly, she realized something.

She turned around and looked at Natalia in disbelief.

"You, you set me up?"

Natalia sneered.

"It's just a trap. I even couldn’t trap you, if you were not so scheming.”

"You!"

At this point, Shew couldn't say anything more. He announced on the spot, "Natalia Dawson wins this competition. With such a great difference between the two drawings, it can be concluded that the work five years ago must have been drawn by Natalia. All these years... we all have misunderstood her."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three examiners beside him also showed a guilty expression.

After all, they were also the ones who had believed Jessica's words and agreed that Natalia had stolen the design.

Victoria was so excited that she almost cried.

She rushed over and hugged Natalia, crying excitedly, "Natalia, I know you can prove your innocence. You have done it. You have really done it."

Natalia smiled.

Compared with Victoria's excitement, she was much calmer.

Some things were engraved into her bones and could not be wiped away.

Just like now, even if she had proved her innocence, who would be responsible for the grievances and sadness she had experienced all these years?

Archie stood up and walked towards her.

"I'm sorry that I didn't be with you when you suffered, but I promise that no one can frame and bully you in the future."

Natalia stared at him.

The man's eyes were peaceful and gentle, with strong confidence and firmness.

Her heart seemed to be struck by something.

She suddenly felt more comfortable and moved.

She nodded then, firmly.

Victoria smiled through tears.

"Is it really good for you to show off your love like this? I think I'd better step aside. It’s strange for me to stand between you two!"

As she spoke, she really stepped back. Amused by her, Natalia couldn't help laughing.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the side.

“Jessica! Are you okay? Jessica!”

Everyone turned around and saw Jessica fainted on the ground. Shawn rushed over and hugged her. Under her white fur dress, deep red blood flowed down her thighs.

Natalia hurriedly said.

"Victoria, call the ambulance!"

Jessica was sent to the hospital.

After the check, it was found that she could not bear the abrupt change of emotions, and she just broke down.

It was nothing serious, but it influenced her pregnancy, and the baby in her belly was ... gone.

It was the next day when Natalia heard the news.

Natalia didn't think much about it. Although Jessica got such a result because of her, she wasn't the one who caused all this.

She had made a concession, but the reality told her that if she kept on compromising, her enemy would only get worse schemes.

She was neither a lamb to be slaughtered nor a punchbag that could endure any bullying. She was not that generous to make a concession all the time.

She quickly forgot about it.

There was no other reason. She was too busy.

She had a lot of things to deal with for both Star Entertainment and Annie International.

In particular, she should deal with the case about the role she had discussed with Hamlin before. Because the competition with Jessica, she didn't have the time to find Hamlin's assistant. Although she had an appointment with the assistant in the afternoon after the competition, they hadn't reached an agreement on the specific details. They needed to talk more in depth.

So she took Laura to have a dinner with Hamlin this night.

Coincidentally, Archie was on a business trip to the neighboring city that day and would come back in the evening.

Therefore, the two of them had made a deal. When he came back, he could pick her up at the restaurant, and the two of them would go home together.

The reason why Natalia recommended Laura to Hamlin and helped Laura to get the role in the film, Chase the Wind, was not entirely for the sake of the company.

She had read the script. Laura's appearance and temperament were really suitable for this role.

Hamlin was able to stand out from so many outstanding well-known directors, so he must have his own abilities.

One of them was his sharp eyes.

In the evening, they had a nice dinner together.

Natalia asked Laura to show him how she would interpret the role, and Hamlin liked her performance very much.

The case about the role was settled soon.

Just the payment was lower than the market price, but there was no other problems.

But Natalia knew that with Laura's current status, it was not easy for her to get this opportunity.

The payment was not important. Other soft benefits from the movie were long-term, so she agreed without hesitation.

The three of them chatted happily in the private room.

At the end of the meeting, Natalia's phone in her bag suddenly vibrated.

Afraid of disturbing the meeting, she muted her phone before. Although she said she wouldn't drink much tonight, she was slightly tipsy.

Natalia picked up her handbag and asked to be excused. Then she went out to the restroom.

However, as soon as she went out, she ran into the last person she ever wanted to see.

"Eh? Natalia, why are you here?"

Katie walked out of the opposite room with her friend. The two bumped into each other.

Natalia looked at her coldly and didn't answer. She turned around and walked to the restroom.

“Natalia! Stop!”
