Chapter 909

Chapter 909On the other side of the globe, Natalie had known about Sam's arrest from Shane. Hearing that, she
was sincerely happy for him.
After all, he had finally avenged his parents.
The only uncertainty was whether Sean would make an appearance.
By now, he had probably learned about Sam's arrest and the fact that Shane had found the will.
Perhaps he would show up, though not because of Sam but the share transfer agreement in the will.
Speaking of that, it was truly shocking that Shane's mother actually left the company that was part of
her dowry to Sean instead of her son, Shane.
Both Natalie and Shane were exceedingly curious to know the answer, but there was none to be found
when Sean remained in hiding.
“Nat, the organizer of the competition is calling all designers for a meeting.” Right then, a knock
sounded on the door, and Sally's voice drifted in.
Natalie walked over and opened the door. “A meeting?”
“Yup.” Sally nodded fervently with glee written all over her face. “I heard that Calandra has been
apprehended, so the meeting is probably about that.”
Natalie's eyes narrowed a fraction when she heard that. In the next moment, the corners of her mouth
lifted. “Got it. I'll go over right away.”
“Come back after the meeting and update me, okay?” Sally urged.
After grunting in assent, Natalie went downstairs.Soon, she arrived at the competition venue.
When she reached, almost all the other designers were already there.
She simply chose a seat and plopped down.
Shortly after, the meeting started.
Sure enough, Sally was right in that the meeting was about Calandra's arrest.
Apparently, Calandra was arrested in a hotel. Perhaps she had known that she would be apprehended,
for she went willingly when she was nabbed.
When she was interrogated after having been taken to the police station, she didn't deny anything
either. Instead, she honestly told the police everything.
It turned out that Jasmine inadvertently got dirt on her and blackmailed her into doing the design for
her. It was all so that she could quickly make a name for herself in the design industry.
Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea, Calandra had no choice but to concede.
In the previous rounds of competition, Jasmine conveyed the theme to Calandra, who was hiding
somewhere in the competition hall via stud earrings equipped with Bluetooth. When Calandra was
done with the design, she would use holographic projection and project the blueprint onto her glasses.
It was a newfangled technology that wasn't yet widely available in the market, so many people were
still unaware of it. Actually, Jasmine got those glasses from Calandra.
With the stud earrings and glasses, she copied the blueprint exactly and remained in the competition
thus far.“Ah, so that was how she did it. No wonder she always wore those glasses during the competition
though she usually doesn't wear them.” After Sally had listened to the contents of the meeting Natalie
related upon returning to the villa, she finally understood everything.
Natalie took a sip of her fruit juice. “Yeah, who would've thought that she has such an advanced
method of cheating. Because of this incident, the organizer added a new rule—the jewelry, glasses,
and buttons of all designers are to be examined. Only when it was certain that they were fine would
they be allowed into the competition.”
“That's essential to prevent anyone else from doing the same thing.” Sally nodded in agreement.
Chuckling, Natalie added, “Besides, Calandra has also confessed that it was her who knocked you out
outside the security room back then, not Tiffanie. At the same time, she also revealed that it was Jas... I
mean, Jessie, who locked me in the washroom.”
“Are you serious?” Sally's eyes widened in delight.
Natalie nodded in affirmation. “Yup. As for your compensation for having been knocked out by
Calandra, it will be paid by the organizer, who will later wire the money to you.”
“The money doesn't matter. Most importantly, I want to know Calandra and Jessie's fates,” Sally
asserted.

exactly. As for Calandra, her punishment will be light since she was under duress. At most, her
reputation will suffer. But then again, she never had much of a reputation to speak of, so it won't affect
her much.”
