Laughter erupted from the crowd around them.
Freya stood tall, her face void of emotion, as if she had grown numb to their biting sarcasm. She had endured so much that she was now devoid of feeling.
Jacob watched the slender woman on the stage, his heart aching for her. He couldn’t bear to see her suffer any longer.
He was well aware of the malicious intent behind the cruel words being thrown at her. Each word was like a poisonous dagger, piercing Freya’s heart.
Any woman would have crumbled under such malevolent intent.
Ignoring their taunts, Freya turned to address the crowd below the stage, ‘I did not plagiarize! Now, I will present my original design.”
Martina could no longer contain herself. She sneered and retorted,
If you claim it’s your design, what proof do you have?
“Or what inspiration could you possibly have found during your three years in prison?”
Laughter echoed once more.
Indeed, the stigma of Freya’s time in jail was something she could never erase.
The laughter also stirred guilt within Nathaniel. His mother’s death had fueled his deep–seated hatred for the Gomez family.
When his plan for revenge was set in motion, he was consumed by bloodlust. His mental state was unstable, his only desire was to crush everyone in the Gomez family, including Freya.
He never expected to fall for Freya. He was merely playing a part.
However, over the past three years, he found himself unable to forget her.
During the three years Freya was tormented in jail, he too was tormented mentally on the outside.
Freya looked at her former mentor, someone she had once held in high regard and from whom she had learned so much. She never anticipated that this mentor would deal her such a devastating blow upon their reunion.
In those three years, not just her, everyone had changed.
Freya met Martina’s gaze with a complex look, then declared, “I can prove that this is my design.”
The crowd fell silent instantly. Even Alexander, who had been lounging confidently in his chair, sat up straight.

separate computers.
For efficiency, the organizers displayed two drafts simultaneously.
The draft from Technologent Group was displayed on the west screen, while Zeusforce Group’s draft This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
was on the cast screen.
Freya approached the east computer and reached for the wireless mouse.
“Hold on!” Alexander finally interjected, “Organizer, is it appropriate to let a competitor manipulate our
draft?”
The organizer was taken aback. Before they could respond. Nathaniel slowly raised his hand and announced, “We, Technologent Group, will withdraw from this bidding.”
Nathaniel’s statement shocked everyone, including Alexander.
Nathaniel is actually withdrawing from the bidding? At this point, if Technologent Group doesn’t voluntarily withdraw, are they waiting for a more humiliating defeat later?
Nathaniel smiled and added, “Not only will Technologent Group withdraw from this bidding, but we also plan to sponsor the university town that is to be built in East Saeville.”
Upon hearing Nathaniel’s decision, the Mayor of Saeville was overjoyed.
Saeville was planning to build a university town in East Saeville and develop high–tech industries. The scale of such an investment was massive. Nathaniel’s offer was more than they could have hoped for.
Nathaniel nodded at the mayor, “But please allow our designer a chance to prove her innocence. After all, we have withdrawn from the bidding, so it wouldn’t be wrong for our designer to learn from the competitor’s draft, would it?”
