Chapter: 1679
The woman, having wrongly accused Raegan under Katie's instruction, still wanted to stir up trouble.
The journalists kept asking questions unrelated to the baseless accusation of plagiarism. The woman was dissatisfied they had deviated from that topic and shouted several times for their attention. However, they all just ignored her as if she didn't exist.
Frustrated, the woman suddenly jumped onto the stage and yelled, “Even if Casey is your mother, how can you put your name on her works and claim them as your own? What is the difference between what you are doing and plagiarism?"
As soon as the woman said this, there was pin-drop silence in the room. Everyone stared at her as if she was a fool. They collectively believed the woman's claim of being an employee of Dream Studio was nothing but a lie. For someone in the design industry, not knowing Casey's story was unthinkable.
Unfazed, Raegan turned to the security guards and ordered softly, “Security, please escort this lady out."
The woman protested madly and shouted, “Why are you kicking me out?
Because I exposed you? You are a plagiarist! How dare you hold a press conference! You are a shameless bitch!"
"Miss..." Raegan was about to say something when one journalist, who could no longer hold back, suddenly spoke up. "Do you really work in the design industry? If so, how could you not know that Casey once mentioned in an interview that some of her designs were completed with her six-year-old daughter?"
Casey received a purely foreign education, explaining the style of her initial designs. Later, she started to create a national-style series, influenced by her daughter's drawings. She perfected her daughter's drawing of national animals and presented them on clothes.
Impressed by the national-style designs she delivered, Casey dedicated herself to promoting it globally.
And now, Raegan seemed to be doing the same thing as her mother. It was really commendable.
The woman meant to stir up trouble was rendered speechless. She knew nothing about Casey. Her only purpose in coming here was to make things difficult for Raegan.
Rolling her eyes, the woman changed her tactic and scoffed. "So this woman said she was Casey's daughter, and you believed her right away?
Who knows if her work is outsourced? If she is really that capable, why doesn't she design in front of us now?"
The room became noticeably quieter.
The woman's words had a point. Considering Casey had stepped down, it wasn't sufficient to take Raegan's claim at face value without proof that she was indeed Casey's offspring.
Several journalists agreed, “Indeed, we can't just accept her claim without question."
"Let's have her show us Mrs. Hayes' signature embroidery skills, the Hayes Embroidery Method, known only to her daughter."
“Exactly, exactly..
Raegan saw through that the woman with the sunglasses was here to stir up trouble.
