Seraphina's voice was not cold or harsh; it was calm and carried an undeniable strength.
Her words were firm, leaving no room for doubt.
Perhaps this was the first time a company had openly admitted its mistake, even at the cost of significant losses, just to preserve its integrity.
After a brief moment of silence, the reporter continued to ask questions, but this time with a much softer
tone.
"Can you explain Professor Smith's accusation in the video?"
Admitting to plagiarism would mean that Anthony had falsified his work-a cardinal sin in the academic world.
Seraphina smiled, and her radiant smile exuded calm confidence.
She stood up and spoke in a gentle yet resolute voice.
"The results of our tripartite collaboration did not come from Professor Smith. Instead, they were stolen by Professor Smith. Now, let me introduce you to the true central figure of our research, a scientist who has won the industry's highest honor, the Machina Golden Award-Prometheus."
As soon as she finished speaking, the room fell silent. The audience was stunned.
From another door, a young man with refined features and a calm stride walked in.
This genius scientist, whom they had only seen on television or in magazines, was standing right before their eyes.
Sergio's demeanor was unlike that of a traditional scientist-he wasn't geeky or dull. Instead, he exuded a regal and composed aura.
Which journalist wouldn't recognize Prometheus?
Instantly, the room erupted in applause.
Flashlights flickered non-stop.
It was well known that this genius rarely accepted interviews, and getting even a few words from him was considered a great surprise. Yet, was he willing to personally step forward to clear this up?
Prometheus's arrival immediately dispelled all rumors.
Global recognition of his status eliminated the need for further explanation.
Anthony's insinuations were nothing more than a self-directed performance.
What kind of professor could even compare to Sergio? Anthony's status was insignificant in comparison with Sergio.

How dare he challenge the genius?
Anthony's place in the entire industry would likely be gone.

Sergio stood there and allowed the cameras to capture some photos of him. Next, Seraphina's gentle voice was heard. "Come here and sit with me."
Sergio obediently walked over from the side. He smiled at Seraphina. Their gazes met and were filled with mutual understanding.
The reporters' cameras didn't miss this moment.
"How sweet!"
"So many outstanding men surround Ms. Cross!"
"Ms. Cross, marry me, please!"
Sergio sat down and remained unfazed. He began to explain the situation.
Perhaps no one noticed, but Aiden and Orion each wore complicated expressions.
Aiden quietly whispered, his voice only audible to the two of them.
"Sergio really showed up. Seraphina never disappoints."
Aiden was well aware of Sergio's identity, but Orion was different. He didn't know what kind of relationship this handsome genius engineer had with Seraphina. He only knew that there was a new man in Seraphina's life.
Orion's expression darkened, clearly displeased with Sergio's presence.
""What's it to you?"
Aiden picked up on the displeasure in his tone. He guessed what was on Orion's mind and chuckled.
"Oh, it does concern you. You've got another love rival."
Orion's face grew colder, and he was about to retort. He suddenly heard a reporter ask an intriguing question.
"Ms. Cross, can you tell us about your relationship with Mr. Sergio? Are you friends? Or perhaps something more?"
The atmosphere in the room quieted down again.
Everyone waited for an answer.
Although the question had crossed a line, someone could step in to stop it at any moment and steer the conversation elsewhere. Seraphina didn't show any signs of displeasure

She smiled faintly and exchanged a look with Sergio.
Without lowering her voice, she asked, "Shall I reveal it?" Everyone held their breath.
Sergio replied, "Whatever you think is necessary."
Everyone's hearts leaped into their throats.
A juicy piece of gossip appeared to be about to surfac
