Mona felt a warm glow in her heart as she witnessed everything that just happened online while Maxwell was driving her back to The Designscape.
Actually, Artemis did not need to risk her career over these rumors. However, she still did it. If the response was not good, it might affect her image in the industry.
As for Joseph, he spoke up entirely because of Ava.
Ava and Elara both spoke up for her, with Elara even posting a heartfelt message describing how she and Mona tested colors and chose fabrics together. She sincerely defended Mona, insisting that there was no plagiarism and that the gown was Mona's own design. Mona felt truly happy to have so many supportive people around her. Maxwell, of course, had been by her side from the very beginning and stayed with her through everything.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Mona was so moved that she was about to cry. She messaged their group chat. [Girls, when I get back, BBQ's on me!] After all, food and good company could make things better.
After Mona collected her things from The Designscape, Maxwell took her back to the Clem family home. He did not even have time to eat at the house.
Mona looked at Maxwell and knew that he would not be able to eat dinner tonight. "Maxwell, wait for me here. Nigel, you're not allowed to drive!"
Nigel nodded. He definitely had to listen to his boss.
After saying that, Mona quickly ran home. Luckily, there were some packed meals prepared by Polly in the fridge. In a hurry, she grabbed two boxes without taking the time to choose carefully,
In just over a minute, she returned and handed the two boxes to Maxwell. "Eat on the way. If you just focus on work and skip dinner, I'll feel bad for you."

Then she turned to Nigel and said, "Nigel, make sure to find some time to have dinner too."
Seeing Maxwell nod, she waved goodbye and headed back inside
Once Mona's figure disappeared from Maxwell's sight, he signaled Nigel to drive away.
After returning home and finishing dinner with the elders of the Clem family, Mona started packing her and Maxwell's clothes for their trip abroad
She didn't have much to pack since she hadn't opened her suitcase after returning from Noretin. Instead, she mainly focused on packing for Maxwell.
While Mona was packing, a tweet suddenly climbed to the top of the trending list, causing quite a stir.
It wasn't until her phone buzzed incessantly that she set down Maxwell's white shirt and raised her hand to check her phone.
The chat in her friends' group instantly increased, with everyone tagging her.
Curious about what was happening. Mona scrolled to the top of the chat
It was someone's tweet shared by Ava
Mona subconsciously opened Twitter.
There was a post shared by Maxwell under the name of the chairman of the Clem Group. The president of the Carter Group retweeted it, leading to a surge of shares, comments, and likes online.
[Regarding the accusations of plagiarism against Mona, we will pursue legal action. She does not need to plagiarize and would never stoop to such behavior!]
This tweet quickly rose to the top of the trending list, even surpassing the buzz generated by Artemis and Joseph defending Mona. Surprisingly, only a few comments were criticizing Maxwell. Instead, many netizens praised his bold defense of his wife.
For a moment, Mona's popularity online improved a lot.
(Mr. Carter is right. Mrs. Carter has money and looks. If she really wanted fame, she could just have Mr. Carter fund an event for her. It would be a guaranteed success without all this trouble over accusations of plagiarism. This doesn't seem like something Mrs: Carter would do at all.)
You are right. Mrs. Carter is so beautiful and doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do that. On the other hand. Molly hasn't even been seen in the design world.]
[Am I the only one who isn't focused on the plagiarism but on Mr. Carter's looks? He's my ultimate idol!]
I finally found someone who shares my focus! I've been admiring their looks since the Design Competition in Nathontown, and I'm still swooning!]
[Ah, after hearing you all. I feel like I've found the joy in life!]
[Hey, do you think it's possible that Molly plagiarized Mona's designs, applied for a patent overseas, and then framed her Anyway, just throwing it out there! If I'm wrong, please don't attack me online!]
[I think that's possible! After all, I've always loved Mona's designs. Between the two dresses, I definitely prefer Mona's. The lace on the chest has such a clever touch!]
[Before things are clear, let's speak carefully!]
[Molly is a direct disciple of Danielle Dalton, and doesn't even bother plagiarizing!]
There were all kinds of comments online, and Mona felt somewhat reassured knowing that there were still strangers who believed in her despite the lack of evidence.
There's also Maxwell. He truly loved her to the core. Even with his busy schedule, he still thought of her.
Then she replied to Maxwell's post: [Thank you, Mr. Carter, for your unconditional trust. You're right. I have the talent design and have no need to plagiarize, nor would I ever stoop to it!]
After sending that, she happily posted in the group chat, [Girls, did you see that? In the future, look for a husband who meets Maxwell's standards. You definitely won't regret it!]
Elara: [Mona, you need to know that there is only one Mr. Carter. We won't find another.]
Ava: [Mona, you're stunning! Do you only see Maxwell in your eyes? Don't you see us, your friends?]
Artemis: [I sec. Girls, in the future, let Mona help us find men.]
Mona was very excited when she saw the messages from her friends. Such a great man had been hers since childhood. For a moment, she forgot about the plagiarism accusations and only thought about Maxwell's love for her. She replied in the group: [Even though there is only one Maxwell you all have a man like him.]

After replying, she put her phone down on the bedside and threw herself onto the bed. She rolled around a couple of times, and shyly covered her face with her hands, unable to hide the smile at the corners of her mouth. Maxwell just wanted to help Mona gain some good impressions online, but he didn't expect her reply to make netizens ship them as a couple. They started asking for more interactions between them on their Twitter posts. The keen-eyed netizens quickly found rare photos of the two online and pieced them together. For example, there was a picture of them looking at each other from a distance at the Nathontown Design Competition, their eyes full of love. Another photo from their engagement ceremony showed them kissing, which excited many netizens for a long time.
