Chapter 674
Michael had specifically said things in an attempt to win everyone's hearts. He had painted himself as a mighty and
forgiving senior in a respectable tone.
At the thought of that now, it was extremely disgusting.
He had to be really shameless to be able to speak those words.
The audience couldn't help but look at Charlotte with sympathy in their eyes.
They had never expected that such a young genius existed in this world.
The piece that she composed when she was sixteen shocked everyone. One could only imagine her achievements if
only she continued her studies.
Ashlyn stared icily at Michael, who had cold sweat all over his face. “What else do you have to say, Michael?” she
asked. “The manuscript was composed by Charlotte, which makes her the owner of it. You even backstabbed her
and called her a copycat when it was you who used it without permission,” she said.
“I have nothing to say. The manuscript was actually discovered by me unintentionally when passing by a trash
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcan...” Michael explained with an embarrassed look on his face. It was extremely humiliating. His reputation was
completely tarnished.
He never expected that a piece that seemed unwanted actually belonged to someone else.
“I-I'm sorry,” he apologized before stepping off the stage. He then left in a hurry, as if he was being chased by a
dog.
With a grim expression, Hera stared at Michael's back as he left all flustered frantically.
There was a feeling of burning embarrassment on her face, which felt like someone had just given her a kick while
wearing shoes weighing a hundred or so kilograms.
She wished she could sink into the ground.
However, she felt that Michael was not any better off than her.
He had been a well-known Professor of Piano who was prestigious and respectable. Now that he was involved in this
issue of plagiarism, his career and reputation would definitely be greatly affected.
It would probably take a long period of time before anyone would go to him for training again.
While she was infuriated and envious of Charlotte's talent, Hera also felt hatred toward Michael.
Such a shameless old man! How dare he fool me with a plagiarized piece? Lucky for me, I did not play it during the
final round. I would have been the one bearing the shame if I did. What kind of mentor is he? I thought he was a
good one, but he turned out to be trash. Ugh!
Hera was secretly relieved that the plagiarism issue was exposed earlier.
She was lucky that it did not implicate her.
Meanwhile, Charlotte couldn't help but sigh in relief on the stage.
Elegantly, she smiled at Joseph who sat among the crowd. However, the smile faded when it tugged at the wound
on her face.
Eventually, the judging committee gave her an average score of nine, which was a great result.
At the same time, she gained a spot in the final round right away.
Lochlan looked at the car with a gloomy gaze. Waves of frustration filled his heart.
He turned to Olivia and said, “Let's go.”
“Aren't you going to congratulate me for getting into the semi-finals?” Olivia asked. She bit her lips and her eyes
were fixated on Lochlan.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe continued, “Why am I always nothing in your eyes? Is she really that good? You're constantly thinking about
her, and all you see is her. She's merely a poor girl. Does she have a powerful family as I do? Is she more capable
than I am? She even has difficulty communicating. This girl has issues!”
Lochlan glared at Olivia fiercely with his reddened eyes. “Shut up!” he demanded.
No matter what, Charlotte was the best in his opinion. She was the apple of his eyes.
He would not allow anyone to speak ill of her. However, he seemed to have forgotten about one important matter,
which was the things that his mother, Mrs. Fraser, had done to Charlotte.
Olivia's heart was filled with pain and sadness.
With her red lips trembling and eyes filled with tears, she asked, “How dare you say that? How dare you treat me
this way, Lochlan!”
“I'm telling my parents to withdraw their investment from Fraser Corporation. After all, no one has faith in the
movie that your mother is investing,” said Olivia.
She then went on, “That small amount of funds was nothing. It was all spent on handling scandals and suppressing
the trend, so not much was left. You people have also angered the Haddock Group. They will not provide any
additional investment.”
