Hearing this piece of news, Madeline was very shocked. If the other party said she didn’t like her clothes, that was understandable. After all, everyone had different preferences.

However, Madeline would never admit that her clothes were plagiarizing someone else’s work. She immediately drove over to Mrs. Astor’s villa.

When she arrived, she could still hear the sounds of cursing coming from inside.

At the same time, there was also the sound of that b*tch, Courtney, fanning the flames.

“Mom, my sister has always been a sneaky person from a young age. She had even plagiarized other people’s essays when she was studying. How can such a person have any integrity and claim that she’s Willow? I think there must be a misunderstanding.”
Mrs. Astor flew into a rage. “This is too much! I’m going to attend a banquet tonight, and another set is what I intended to wear to my alma mater tomorrow. I even boasted that Willow personally customized a few sets of clothes for me. I didn’t expect them to be plagiarized.”
In such noble circles, competition was like bread and butter. They loved comparing with one another, especially when it came to clothes and accessories, with the aim of suppressing one another.
And Willow’s reputation was a means for these rich ladies to show off. Anyone who wanted her to design an outfit might have to wait for months.

Willow acted on how she felt and people like her with a certain level of fame would like to act on their own whims.

It was precisely because of this that the clothes she designed were so precious.

And now, Mrs. Astor wanted to make use of this opportunity to make a name for herself.

Yet, the clothes she received were all copied from the famous designer, Michelle. This naturally made Mrs. Astor angry.

“You’re right. When I first saw this woman, I already felt that she didn’t look like Willow. I really didn’t expect her to be so shameless as to impersonate Willow, let alone plagiarize.”

Mrs. Astor’s arrogance could eat a person alive. When Madeline walked in, she saw that the clothes she had spent so much effort designing were cut into pieces and discarded on the ground.

This feeling was no different from hurting her own child.

“You still have the cheek to come here? Let me ask you, are you Willow or not? And why are these clothes designed by you exactly the same as those designed by the designer, Michelle?”

Madeline frowned. “Exactly the same?”

Even if there were similar clothes, it could only mean that some designers were inspired by the same theme.

However, if it was exactly the same, then it was a little strange. The reputation that Madeline had built up over the past two years was not for nothing.

Mrs. Astor asked Courtney to show her the photos they had found online. This was a work published in a fashion magazine by Michelle two days ago, and the finished products were also featured.
These designs were exactly the same, and what made Madeline feel even more strange was that even the colors were similar. It seemed as though Madeline had copied the clothes from this magazine.

Mrs. Astor scolded her. “A woman like you, who has a child out of wedlock, is a dirty person to begin with. And to think that you still did such an immoral thing. Let me wam you first. If you don’t resolve this matter, I will definitely teach you a lesson. I will also make BELLA lose its reputation in the
country.”

These hurtful words pierced Madeline’s heart.
‘When she saw that the outcome that she had worked so hard for over the past few nights had already appeared in the magazine, it made her feel even more worse.

Madeline shook her head. “There can’t be such a coincidence. These are all my designs. They shouldn’t have appeared in this magazine.”

Courtney added insult to injury. “Don’t quibble here. If you know what’s good for you, disappear from the city. Don’t stay behind and make a fool of yourself. Moreover, given your plagiarism this time, if Mom wears your clothes, how many people will laugh at her?”

These words were the key point, and what had made Mrs. Astor the most angry.

Because Mrs. Astor was very interested in various fashion magazines, she would look at the latest outfits every day.

Courtney naturally knew that she had such a hobby, so she asked Michelle to publish her works there.

This way, once the outfits were delivered to Mrs. Astor, she would immediately assume that they were plagiarized.

These rich people always had the ability to discern among the designs.

“Thinking about this makes me angry. You have to give me an explanation, including your company. You have to give me a satisfactory answer or I won’t let you off easily.”

When Mrs. Astor thought about how she almost became a laughing stock, the resentment in her heart could burn Madeline to death.

Madeline assured her firmly. “Mrs. Astor, I don’t know what happened during the production process, but I can assure you that this is definitely my work. It must have been stolen during the creation process.”

“Now that I’ve discovered your actions, you can’t brush me off. I don’t believe you. If you’re really Willow, I’l ruin your reputation. Also, you have to compensate for my loss this time. Just wait for your punishment. Get out of my house now. I don’t want to see you!”

Mrs. Astor was truly furious, especially since she had already boasted about it, but was slapped in the face. How could she not be angry?

Courtney knew that no matter what she did to Madeline, Mrs. Astor would feel that it was right.

Hence, Courtney stepped forward and gave her a hard push. “Mom has already asked you to get lost. Why are you still shamelessly staying here? You’re such a despicable woman, and now you want to find a rich father for your daughter, so much so that you are shamelessly staying at Augustus’ place.”
Mrs. Astor’s eyes widened in shock. “Courtney, what did you say? Who is living with Augustus?”

Courtney wanted to make use of this opportunity to punish Madeline, or even better, chase her out.

Courtney emphasized boldly. “Mom, you don’t know what tricks this woman used. In order to let her daughter attend the Astor Corporation’s kindergarten for free, not only did she move into Augustus’ house, she even fed him everyday to gain his favor. I wanted to go visit him, but was chased out.”
Mrs. Astor, who was originally in a fit of anger, would definitely be even angrier when she heard these words. Furthermore, what Courtney implied was that Madeline was a woman who would do anything for money.

Now that she used such plagiarized work to fool her, she would definitely be even angrier.

“You shameless woman, take your little b*tch daughter and get out of the Astor mansion.” Mrs. Astor’s sharp words triggered Madeline’s anger.

She was responsible for this matter, so Madeline didn’t have any objections if she wanted to scold her.

However, insulting Aurora hit Madeline’s bottomline.

“Only those who are filthy and despicable in their hearts would say such shameless words. No matter how noble some people are or how gorgeous their appearances are, it can’t hide the stench of evil.”
