Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 44

Chapter 44 Fire

Soon, under Elspeth’s machinations, the new product was launched and released for sale.

As expected by Callum, on the first day of the new product release, some people noticed the

similarities between the two products. They even discovered that Winthrop Group’s latest product was

a replica of Alphascape Group’s product! As a result, they began to wonder if Winthrop Group planned

to destroy their own reputation.

The news became viral on the Internet. Everyone was discussing why this farce happened and how to

deal with it.

‘I think Winthrop Group has tanked this time. Can’t they come up with some new ideas? How can they

steal Alphascape’s design?’

‘Nonsense! Elspeth designed these pieces of jewelry. Do you think she will plagiarize her own work?’

‘Hey, don’t be so sure about that. There are all kinds of people in the world, and almost everyone has

plagiarized something in their lives. So, you don’t have to defend her like a moronic fan.’

‘Hear hear! I’m taking Alphascape’s side this time.’

Most of the views on the Internet were in favor of Alphascape Group. Except for some people who

stuck to their aspirations and fanatical worship of Elspeth, the rest accused her of plagiarizing other

people’s works.

However, Elspeth could not be bothered at all. She even conversed happily with the members of the

Winthrop Family when she was at home that weekend.

Max was rather anxious when he saw the news. “Aren’t you worried at all? This is a big deal. Your

reputation may be tarnished completely.”

Elspeth took a sip of water and asked casually, “Do you think I will do something like plagiarize other

people’s work?”

“Of course not!” He refuted, “You won’t do such a thing. I trust you.”

“So, don’t worry about it.”

Edmund mocked, “What if you can’t turn the tide, though? What happens then will be a different story.”

“Do you have any good ideas for me? Do share.” Elspeth glanced at him emotionlessly.

“It’s none of my business.” He chuckled. “I can’t help you.”

Arthur simply smiled without saying anything.

Blake knew how devastating the consequences of this kind of cyberbullying were due to his years of

experience in the entertainment industry, so he was genuinely worried about her situation. “This is not

easy to settle, and it becomes a bigger deal since the company is involved. Are you sure you can

handle it?”

Elspeth gave him a reassuring look in response, yet Callum felt inexplicably uneasy as he watched the

two interact. “She’s not as stupid as you think,” Callum blurted.

She grinned from ear to ear when she heard this. Indeed, Callum, who had spent the most time with

her, knew her best.

“We’re going back to the office this afternoon.” Callum asked seriously, “Are you ready?”

Elspeth nodded and donned a triumphant smile. “Yup. Later, I’ll let Alphascape know the downfall of

stealing my work.”

The members of the Winthrop Family were taken aback, not knowing what tricks they had up their

sleeves.

Finally, at 3.00PM, they arrived at the new product launch as promised. This incident caused a great

sensation on the Internet. Hence, many reporters at the press conference aimed their cameras at

Elspeth, hoping they could capture something sensational and become the first to publish the breaking

news.

“Hello, ladies and gentlemen. I am Elspeth. I’m glad to meet with all of you again and introduce our new

product, ‘Wonderlust Pearl’.”

As soon as she finished her introduction, the entertainment reporter asked eagerly, “Miss Lynwood,

there are rumors on the Internet saying that Winthrop’s new release ‘Wonderlust Pearl’ and

Alphascape’s latest product ‘Pearl of the Sea’ are the same product. Do you admit that you plagiarized

it?”

Plagiarized? Elspeth raised her eyebrow slightly and donned a professional smile as she looked at the

reporter’s face. “Of course not, because this is my design.”

“Your design? According to the timeline, Alphascape made the product announcement first, and then Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

you announced the launch later.”

“Well, according to the timeline, it is indeed Alphascape who released the product first.” Elspeth tapped

her chin and smiled faintly. “But just because they launched the product first doesn’t mean that they are

the creator. I can provide some evidence to prove that I am indeed the creator.”

With that, she opened her laptop and cast the screen on the large screen behind her.

“As you can see, I have already started working on this design in September, which was three months

ago.”

There was a specific timestamp on the blueprint draft, and it verified her remarks.

Next, the image changed, and it was her chat record with someone. “This was a conversation I had

with my mentor in October, where she told me what I could do to make this blueprint more precise.”

The dialogue between the two people evolved heavily around the work, and this kind of detailed

understanding of the product could not be faked.

“Finally, I would like to utilize the public resources to say something to Mr. Houston Bishop, who is now

working at Alphascape Group.” Elspeth cleared her throat and enunciated, “Mr. Bishop, do you like my

presentation?”

This press conference was a live webcast. After she said those remarks, there was an uproar on the

Internet.

‘Houston Bishop? He used to work in the Winthrop Group, didn’t he?’

‘Yeah, I know him! He’s working at Alphascape now!’

‘I’m Winthrop Group’s internal employee! Let me tell you, Houston tried to rope people into his team,

embezzled the company’s money, and even tried to usurp the position of the president. He was fired!’

‘Wow, this is so bizarre!’

Elspeth laughed out loud as she looked at the shocked expressions of everyone present. “Look at

them! Don’t they look like a bunch of ignorant fence-sitters?” She leaned in and whispered to Callum.

“Yes.” He knew that she would be able to settle the situation smoothly, but he didn’t expect her to be so

meticulous and perfect.

“Wow! This is the first time you’ve answered a question like this. You usually would have called it

boring.” She was genuinely astonished by his response but still satisfied with the current situation.

He didn’t even bother to deign her with her look as he turned around and left. She shrugged and didn’t

mind his response, or the lack thereof. After all, he was an indifferent and emotionless man. He would

do something heartfelt and affectionate when pigs could fly.

On the other hand, Alphascape Group was completely defeated this time, and they could no longer

dominate the jewelry market from now on.

The dust settled. In the next few days, she felt that her life was tranquil and calm, and it was so quiet

that it was abnormal.

Houston was a vengeful person. After he suffered such a devastating blow this time, he would definitely

devise a more vicious plan. However, it had been a week, and he had been unusually quiet.

Elspeth was puzzled but did not let her guard down.

This afternoon, she came to the office to deliver documents to Callum. As soon as she left the office,

the fire lights on the ceiling flashed, and then a huge siren reverberated in the building.
