Violet was stunned. She was surprised to see Gabriel walking over. His purple ear studs flickered under the sunlight.
He stood directly beside Violet.
Veronica frowned and looked a little confused. “Who are you?”
Gabriel smiled, but his tone was a little aggressive. “I’m just a warm- hearted citizen. I’m here to listen in. What? Do you have a problem with it?”
Veronica shook her head.
Gabriel stepped forward, raised his voice, and said disdainfully, “Veronica, don’t pretend to be pitiful in front of the reporters. Haven’t you had enough of this trick of faking your suicide?”
Veronica subconsciously took a step back and shook her head helplessly. “I didn’t!”
Gabriel looked at her mockingly. “If I kill you and apologize to your corpse, will you forgive me?”
Veronica widened her eyes and looked pitiful. “How can you say that?”
Gabriel didn’t think much of it. “Then how can you do this? You know that not everyone who does something wrong deserves to be forgiven, right?
“Why didn’t you apologize to Violet when you sn atched her boyfriend? You plagiarized her work for two years. Why didn’t you say sorry for that? Why didn’t you say sorry when you faked your suicide and caused millions of people on the Internet to curse Violet? It’s too late to act pitiful now!”
After Gabriel finished speaking, everyone immediately woke up as if they had been hit in the head.
That was right. Veronica had done so many despicable things. Now, she wanted Violet to forgive her and gain the media’s sympathy by saying she was sorry. She must think that everyone was too st upid!

Some of the reporters even started whispering.
“After doing such a thing, she still has the cheek to ask Violet to forgive
her!”
“Yes, she’s putting on an act in front of us! Have you forgotten her name was Director Webb?”
“If she did want Violet to forgive her, she wouldn’t have forced Violet to forgive her in front of everyone before the trial!”
Veronica clearly heard these words and could even see the disdain in their
eyes.
Henry knew that Gabriel’s appearance had foiled his plan. He protected
Veronica and walked into the court.
Violet glanced at Gabriel. “Thank you!”
Gabriel laughed. “Tsk, Vivi, with our relationship, you don’t need to stand on ceremony. I do admire your ability and can’t stand Veronica!”
Violet was grateful at first, but when she saw his cheeky smile, she turned
around and left.
Gabriel quickly followed. “Don’t be so rude. At least I stepped forward to help you just now!”
Violet had always remembered her promise to Patrick last night that she would stay away from Gabriel.
Her face was expressionless. “I didn’t beg you to do that!”
Gabriel raised his eyebrows. “Vivi, you have no conscience for saying that!”
Nelson had just arrived at the court when he saw Gabriel chasing Violet into the court.
Nelson’s expression changed slightly. He found a reporter and asked about what had just happened. He immediately sent a message to Patrick to tell him that Gabriel had come to listen to today’s plagiarism case.

The outside world was in an uproar over this lawsuit. In fact, it had only lasted for less than two hours.
Violet had complete evidence. She had the original design draft, handwriting authentication certificate, and many audio and chat records.
Coupled with the support from the outside world, Veronica could barely fight back at all.
In the end, the lawsuit ruled that Veronica had plagiarized as many pieces of Violet’s jewelry design drafts, which caused severe dama Violet Webb’s reputation. Veronica was ordered to immediately sto dissemination of Violet’s design drafts and publicly apologize to Viole Veronica should also compensate Violet 400 thousand dollars for economic loss and a reasonable expense of 4,60 0 dollars. Veronica should immediately stop the post-production and sale of Violet’s design drafts.
Just as the lawsuit ended, the media reporters had already sent out the
results of the lawsuit.
Veronica was convicted of plagiarism. She lost money and needed to apologize. Violet’s reputation soared.
After the lawsuit, when Veronica left the house, she was still glaring at Violet with red eyes.
Violet ignored her and strode away.
Henry looked displeased. He was about to chase after Violet when he was stopped by Nelson.
Nelson clearly remembered how Henry had treated Violet.
He said in a deep voice, “Mr. Webb, please behave yourself. Don’t force Mr. Hersey to make a move on you!”
Henry’s expression changed several times. At last, he did not chase after Violet and turned to look for Veronica.
Veronica saw her father’s dark expression and said in a low voice, “Dad, don’t be afraid. Although Violet is married to Patrick, Patrick didn’t do

anything to you after how you treated her previously!
“Morcover, not only did Patrick not acknowledge her identity, he didn’t even come to listen to today’s lawsuit. It could be seen that Violet is dispensable to him! Don’t scare yourself!”
When Henry heard this, he nodded with an uncertain expression.
Gabriel chased after Violet out. “Vivi, now that you won the lawsuit, how are you going to thank me?”
Violet did not want to have too much to do with him. She said directly, “Without you, I would still win the lawsuit!”
Gabriel raised his eyebrows. “Vivi, you can’t say that. Before the court hearing, at least I helped you salvage the situation in front of the media!
You can’t be so heartless!”
“Then, thank you. Also, we’re not familiar with each other. Don’t call me
Vivi!” Violet’s voice was cold and distant.
She walked to the car, opened the door, and was about to leave.
Gabriel went forward and grabbed her arm. He smiled cheekily and acted like a hooligan. He said, “Vivi, don’t be so unreasonable. We won the lawsuit, so we should at least celebrate!”
Violet frowned. Just as she was about to shake off Gabriel’s hand, she felt herself pulled over and leaned against someone’s chest.
She had yet to pull her arm out of Gabriel’s hand when a gloomy, cold voice sounded above her head. “Stay away from her!”
