Chapter 660
Chapter 660:
This was the final straw.
Alice prepared to step forward, but Maia quietly lifted a hand, signaling her to hold back.
Calmly, Maia turned to face the room, her gaze unwavering as she met Larkin and Vance head-on. A chill settled into her voice as she said, each word laced with unshakeable conviction, “I don’t need to buy anyone’s favor. If you doubt me, investigate as much as you want. I’ll be right here, waiting for your answers p>
Brevity lent her words power. The confidence in her stance left a ripple of awe among everyone watching.
Rage burned in Larkin’s eyes, coloring his face red as he realized just how far things had spiraled out of his control.
All he could do was dig his heels in deeper, his tone sharp and bitter as he lashed out at Maia. “Spare me your self-righteous act! Do you honestly believe a simple recording is proof of your innocence? Who’s to say you didn’t change it? Maybe you twisted the evidence to make yourself look good p>
Instantly, Pattie’s expression darkened. “And who do you think you are, Larkin? Ms. Byrd hasn’t even accused us, and yet you’re bold enough to accuse MCN of plagiarism? You question my integrity and the authenticity of my evidence? Where exactly do you get the nerve to make such claims p>
Pattie’s tone sharpened, her gaze hard as steel as she added, “Keep peddling your lies, and the next conversation we have will be in a courtroom p>
Gradually, the uproar died down as the truth took hold. People began to realize that Pattie’s logic was undeniable. No matter how they looked at it, Larkin hadn’t played a direct role in the plagiarism scandal. That made his relentless attacks on Maia—and his willingness to drag Alice through the mud—even more suspicious.
There was no longer any doubt that Larkin’s intentions were questionable. The livestream chat exploded with reactions, and viewers across the internet quickly joined in.
One by one, people started to see that Larkin had been misleading them all along.
“I just landed in Wront today and happened to be on the same flight as Alice,” someone said. “After we left the airport, I watched the whole scene. Pattie and Alice barely exchanged a word before Vance swept in and pulled her away. Everything else is up to your own interpretation p>
Replies poured in. “This smells like a setup,” one person commented. “Lark Fashion probably planned all this to ruin Maia’s reputation and snatch up MCN’s market share p>
Meanwhile, someone else stepped forward, introducing themselves as a guest at the Cooper Group banquet. This person didn’t mince words, insisting that the footage posted by certain popular accounts online had been tampered with and presented a distorted version of what really happened.

“Everyone, you need to see the truth for yourselves! Don’t fall for the lies. Those video clips don’t tell the whole story! I witnessed Maia create three designs right there at the banquet. She even used both hands at once for two of them. The level of skill she showed left the entire room speechless p>
“I can’t get Maia’s technique out of my mind. The concept she presented was also made up of several designs, just like the ‘Four Seasons’ collection she revealed today. When all three outfits came together to create a fourth look, it was simply astonishing p>
“And to think people are buying into the rumors those dishonest influencers are spreading? I was actually there and snapped photos of Maia’s creations myself. Let me share them with you p>
