Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

K&G was now at the center of a whirlwind of attention.

Anyway, it was necessary for her, the legal representative, to come out and say something.

She also knew that the reporters would have many suspicions and accusations against her after she told them K&G was set up...

But she had to bite the bullet.

***

Two hours later, in K&G's conference room.

Savannah stood at the conference table, looking around at the reporters from various media sources, her palms sweaty, her face impassive.

"I'm sorry about what happened. All I can say to you is that K&G's designs are all original and never copied from others. I'm also interested to know why Maple Style is similar to the design of another factory, and I'm investigating the entire matter," she said calmly.

"Miss Schultz, as the head of K&G, is that how you're going to explain copying other factory's designs?" The reporter's questions came in a bullying manner.

"K&G's Young series is very popular and attracted a famous overseas company YSHEN to cooperate with you. Now it's said that the Maple Style of Young series was copied from an unknown factory. Oh, there are even all sorts of rumors in the air that other designs of Young series may also be copied or bought because you wanted to make a performance after taking over K&G. Is that true?" Another reporter asked with a sharp tone.

"Don't blacken Miss Schultz's name and the reputation of K&G! You don't have any evidence!" Tina stopped them hurriedly.

"Can you prove that you didn't plagiarize?" The reporter snorted.

"Miss Schultz said that Maple Style is original, but the other factory's clothes reached the stores half a month earlier than yours! If it's not plagiarism, what's it?"

The reporters posed their questions sharply and didn't mean to let Savannah get away with it easily.

Tina was about to ask the security guards to take Savannah away when footsteps and some newcomers at the door of the conference room caught their attention.

A man in suits and wearing glasses came in with a drooping middle-aged worker.

Savannah looked over and froze for a moment. The man in the suit was Raymond's lawyer, Stephens, who she had met that evening.

Stephens went up to Savannah, looking around at the reporters, and said, "Hello, I'm Stephens, the lawyer from the Morton group. As for K&G's plagiarism, I will make a statement on behalf of Miss Schultz. Just as Miss Schultz said, Maple Style of K&G is an original design. Its design draft was stolen when it was sent to a clothing manufacturer for making samples and sold to another small factory. That's the cause of all misunderstanding." With that, he waved his hand at the worker coming with him.

The middle-aged man in overalls, looking crestfallen, stepped forward, bowing to Savannah and the reporters.

"I'm a worker of the clothing manufacturer who cooperated with K&G... A month ago, not soon after K&G sent me the design draft of Young series, a young woman came to me and said that the design of Young series is very popular, and there was a chance to make a lot of money. I was persuaded to secretly take out the design draft of Maple Style and sold it to another small clothing factory... I'm sorry, Miss Schultz, I was blinded by money. Please forgive me. Don't sue me, I'm sorry..." He apologized as he bowed again.

Savannah was shocked that the worker would plead guilty for the theft himself. She breathed a sigh of relief and then was confused.

A woman encouraged the worker to steal her design?

Who would the woman be?

"So K&G's design was really stolen..." The reporters were staring at the worker and muttering.

Stephens smiled and continued, "you must be interested in the woman who instructed the worker to steal K&G's design."

"Have you found out who it is?"

"K&G's rival?"

Stephens nodded. "Through the words of the worker and our investigation, the woman is Katrina Kaif."

Savannah was surprised to hear Katrina's name.

After Katrina was kicked out of Zagreb by Dylan, her reputation in the design industry was on the line.

She must be even jealous to learn that Savannah became K&G's boss, and her works attracted an overseas company. Unexpectedly, she would have done such a degrading thing.

"What? Katrina Kaif? She comes from a celebrated family of designers. How could she do this?" A reporter said in amazement.

"Haven't you heard of it?" Another reporter curled her mouth.

"The winner of the designer competition this year should have been Miss Schultz. She quit for some reason before the award presentation, so Miss Kaif took her place and became the first."

"I see! It looks like Miss Kaif and Miss Schultz had a feud."

"Miss Kaif went too far this time."

The reporters whispered.

"The fact that Miss Kaif instigated the worker to steal K&G's design is not just a hoax, but a criminal case," Stephens said, diplomatically. "Later, I'm going to prosecute both of them on Miss Schultz's behalf. Miss Schultz and K&G are also victims in this case."

The reporters looked at each other. Since they had known the truth of the matter, they could call it a day.

"Okay! We will make it clear for K&G."

"Yeah, we won't make Miss Schultz's name stink."

The reporters didn't expect K&G could solve the crisis so quickly. It seemed that Miss Schultz had strong backing. Was that the Morton group?

Tina led those reporters out of the conference room.

Stephens asked two security guards to take the work out and was about to leave with them when Savannah shouted to stop him.

"Mr. Stephens, wait a minute, please."

Stephens stopped and nodded at her.

"Please thank Mr. Morton for me." Savannah looked at Stephens.

"I think Mr. Morton would more like to hear Miss Schultz call him grandpa." Stephens smiled.

Savannah threw him a faint smile and changed the subject. "By the way, how did you find the person who stole my design so quickly?"

"I feel this is weird too." Stephens mused.

"Oh?" Savannah wondered.

"Well. Actually, after Mr. Morton heard that your company had been accused of plagiarism this morning, he sent me to find out the truth, but I had little progress. Unexpectedly, the one who stole your design voluntarily surrendered himself to the police. Then we quickly found that the worker had been instigated by Kaif. After that, we took the worker here to help you out."

Savannah gasped, "how did the worker who stole the design turn himself in for nothing?"
