Chapter 82 So What
That reply caused a subtle change in the expressions of many people present.
A mix of understanding and surprise flickered across their faces as they glanced at her.

It seemed that Suzanna had a flawless plan in her hands. For reasons unknown, she allowed it to slip. After Elana discovered that Melody had plagiarized‘ Suzanna’s proposal, she took the modified version and passed it off as her own.
That was how today’s chain of rookie mistakes unfolded.
The people watching put the pieces together. They began to understand Suzanna’s true intentions.
Logically, Suzanna didn’t even realize she was making those basic mistakes. Instead, she blindly edited the plan Melody supposedly’stole from her.
In the end, it was clear–the proposal was entirely Melody’s work.
Suzanna had no real understanding of finance.
Of course, these were merely the assumptions of the astute. More concrete evidence was needed to confirm their suspicions.
Melody had won. She remained expressionless, showing not a flicker of emotion. With a casual movement, she lifted her hand, revealing a USB drive identical to the one Suzanna had.
She turned her eyes toward Suzanna and asked, “Still not going to admit it, Suzanna? I’m the one who wrote that proposal in your hands.
Her tone was calm, as if the earlier pressures from her family hadn’t stirred a single ripple in her cold heart.
Suzanna stepped back, her face pale. She managed to keep her balance, but her face was filled with disbelief.
“Mel, this proposal was mine! Tim and Carson watched me stay up five nights straight working on it.”
Her mind raced, suddenly understanding why Melody had purposely left the USB drive at
home.
The proposal was flawless.

Suzanna had even hired a professional to verify it because she was worried Melody might pull some tricks. The plan Melody created was truly flawless.
Why would Melody so boldly leave such a flawless plan behind?
Suzanna knew Melody was smart.
A girl who managed to get accepted into Greenfield University’s top–ranking finance and trade program couldn’t be underestimated.
She had been waiting for Melody to retaliate.
It became clear when Melody started working at YM Capital that she had been preparing a better plan to utterly destroy her.
Pressed for time, Suzanna had carried out her actions in secret.
She had solidified her reputation as a financial prodigy. She couldn’t risk getting anyone else involved to verify her work.
Suzanna was certain she would outshine Melody.
Yet here was Melody, turning everything on its head!
At that moment, Suzanna clutched her chest, feeling as though she’d fallen into an icy abyss,
Her eyes reddened with grievance as she looked towards Timothy and Carson. Even if she had lost the battle, as long as her two brothers stood by her side, she would still be the cherished daughter of the Shields.
Elana nodded in agreement and said, “I can vouch for her. Suzanna had worked tirelessly for five days to create the perfect proposal for Timothy.”
A hint of charm sparkled in Melody’s eyes as she tilted her head slightly, her left eye highlighted by a small, captivating tear mole just like Timothy’s.
“Five days, you say? So Suzanna’s entire proposal started on the 10th of September, corr Elana realized she had clearly spoken too much and dared not respond now.
No matter how foolish she had been, Elana could see she had dug a hole for Suzanna. For fear of losing her chance to stay close to Carson, she kept her mouth shut.
This time, even Gary, who was usually so headstrong, furrowed his brow and responded in a low, hoarse voice. “Yes, that’s correct”
Timothy glanced at Gary with his usual calm authority, his powerful presence undeniable.

He said nothing, but his slight frown hinted at growing unease.
Meanwhile, Carson remained by Suzanna’s side, firmly holding her arm in support.

His fingers tightened as he whispered comfortingly, “Suzie, I believe you. Melody is just at dropout from Greenfield, about to be expelled. If she was capable of drafting such a flawless financial plan, she wouldn’t have dragged me into that plagiarism scandal in the first place. Remember? You were the one who stood by me during that ordeal. You even gifted me a full album of lyrics, compositions, and choreography details. You’re so talented; there’s no way you’d steal anything from Melody.”
Carson’s voice was low and hushed, as though he only intended for Suzanna to hear. It wasn’t a matter to be proud of, after all.
It slipped his mind that Timothy had caught every word. His eyes reflected a glow.
Abruptly, Timothy’s gaze swept coldly over both Suzanna and Carson.
Still, he remained silent.
