Chapter 168 Being Exposed
Gianna shook her head gently and said firmly, “No, I want to get my things back on my own.”
She looked at Alaia in the crowd.
At this moment, Alaia enjoyed great success and was chatting with many big shots in the industry.
Alaia saw Gianna standing not far away and smiled with a hint of provocation as if she knew Gianna could do nothing to her.
“Ms. Rivera, Professor Hastings invites you to come over.”
The waiter walked up to Alaia and said politely.
Alaia nodded slightly. “Okay. I’ll be there right away.”
Alaia then turned around and followed the waiter.
At this moment, Professor Hastings, also known as Carmen Hastings, was chatting with several friends about Alaia’s works. Seeing Alaia coming over, Carmen introduced, “This is my friend, Danny Tiller. Mr. Tiller is very interested in your design and wants to know your design concept.” “Yes, Professor Hastings.” Alaia looked at Danny aside and said, “As for the design concept of this work, I’m mainly inspired by the fact that women in today’s society are becoming more independent. I wanted to design clothes to highlight independent women. Based on that, I had the first draft of this work. And after several revisions, I finally finished it.”
After listening to Alaia’s introduction, Danny nodded appreciatively.
“Ms. Rivera’s design concept is unique and fun. This work really attracts my attention, but…” Danny looked hesitant to speak.
Alaia hurriedly asked, “Is there any problem?”
Danny pondered for a while and answered, “Ms. Rivera, there is nothing wrong with your design. However, there is a certain gap between your design concept and your work. I don’t know if I misunderstand…”
Alaia panicked and spoke louder.
“Mr. Tiller, I don’t understand what you mean. Are you questioning whether I copied others‘ work?”
Danny shook his head and explained, for the sake of Carmen, “Sorry, I didn’t mean that.”
Alaia was reluctant to finish this topic. “Mr. Tiller, you’re not the first to question me.” As she said, Alaia glanced around and fixed her eyes on Gianna. “Just now, someone also questioned that my work was a copy.”
As soon as she finished these words, the room suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at each other with puzzlement.
Carmen turned his face gloomy. He didn’t know what Alaia wanted to do.
But Alaia just wanted to prove herself!
She designed this work. Even if someone suspected her, there was no evidence. Therefore, Alaia confidently said, “Ms. Lewis, didn’t you also doubt me?”
Gianna gradually turned her eyes cold when she heard Alaia call her.
She had roughly guessed what Alaia wanted to do.
Gianna looked at Alaia as if she was looking at a clown and responded, “You are right. I questioned

you because the work you submitted today is not your design.”
As soon as Gianna said these words, there was an uproar.
“Really? What’s going on?”
“How dare Alaia be so bold as to participate in a design exhibition with copies?”
“No way. According to Alaia’s attitude, she seems to have been slandered.”
“Forget it. Don’t take sides easily. Let’s wait and see.”
The crowd immediately rushed over, and everyone looked like they were watching a show.
Alaia was exposed by Gianna in public, but she didn’t panic at all. She hugged her chest and said it in front of everyone.
