The Good Girl's Revenge

Sheldon was surprised to answer her call. He looked unpleasant, but he spoke gently. It was his habit over the past five years.

Sheldon was injured and focused his attention on the person who beat him. So he didn't know about the affair of plagiarism, which was exposed on the Internet.

Nora got out of the car and walked into the coffee shop. She was still angry when she saw Sheldon, who had arrived early.

But...

"Nora, I'm here. It is a new shop and their desserts are delicious. I ordered some for you. Try it." Sheldon thought that Nora asked him out for the answer of his proposal more than ten days ago. It was a make-or-break moment. He had to be gentle and considerate. He looked at Nora tenderly. If she didn't know him, she would think that he loved her so much.

Nora looked at his behavior and the familiar expression for five years. She was in a daze and was not angry anymore. She just felt incredible.

Even though she was thinking of many things, she was shocked by his expression

How could he trick her for years and curried favor with another woman with her designs? How could he face her when he ruined her reputation?

Was she too blind before? Or was Sheldon too good at acting?

Neither. The most important reason was about herself.

She lost her memory when she was injured and she was saved by the Joneses. They accepted her and gave her the surname Jones as well. So she was grateful to them and had to conceal her own thoughts.

Nora took a deep breath and suppressed all sorts of thoughts. She sat down opposite Sheldon and looked at him without any expression.

"Nora, what's wrong?"

Sheldon naturally didn't know her thoughts and said: "Did I scare you when I proposed in the square last time? I'm sorry, but I've planned it for a long time. After all, I like you so much. Don't worry, we'll be the happiest couple after we get married.”

As he spoke, he looked at her affectionately.

Nora didn't know what to say.

If he didn't mention it, Nora would have forgotten it.

She didn't want to listen to the hypocrite. So she said directly, "I'm in trouble.”

Huh?

Sheldon was stunned and a little unresponsive.

Nora looked at him and said slowly, "I'm in trouble. A big trouble.”

He recovered and chuckled, "Nora, it doesn't matter. You are my fiancée, the future hostess of the Joneses. Don't worry. I will help you."

Sheldon didn't take it seriously. He knew her well. Even if she took the initiative to cause some trouble, she would not cause any big trouble.

What was more, she wouldn't take the initiative to cause trouble.

Nora nodded and said casually, "I'm relieved to hear that. I took part in a design competition. The ranking was announced and I failed. But I was wrongly accused of plagiarism. I don't know what to do. Can you help me?”

"What? Don't worry, Nora. I'll help you.” Sheldon promised without hesitation.

She took out a document from her bag expressionlessly and said, "It's fine. It is the relevant information, including the culprit who plagiarized me. See if it is useful for you."

The first page of the document was Aubrey's information, which was put on purpose by Nora. Sheldon didn't expect her to have everything ready. He had to look through it, so he took it and opened it casually.

In his opinion, Nora couldn't take part in the big competitions in the small design circle. And it was easy for him the intervene in a small competition.

He had intended to glance at it perfunctorily. But when he opened it, he almost wasn't cool at first glance.

Aubrey...

He was shocked to see the name. He stopped looking at the document and suddenly looked up at Nora, who looked calm.

Nora lowered her eyes and slowly stirred the coffee. She picked it up and took a sip. It seemed that she had no abnormal reaction.

Aubrey was his secret mistress. He never thought that he would talk about her with Nora. He always looked down on Nora.

But it's different now. He had not married Nora and everything was uncertain. It was not good to talk about Aubrey.

He looked at Nora carefully. And then he took a deep breath and scanned the document. He was serious now.

The more he read, the more surprised he was.

He finally remembered that Aubrey asked him to coax Nora into designing a draft for the competition when he was abroad. And of course, Aubrey submitted the design in her name. Sheldon forgot about it. He never expected that it would go wrong. After all, it was not his first time to do so. But he didn't expect that Nora would participate in this competition in her own name. "Why didn't you tell me when you participated in the competition?" He was a little irritated and question her subconsciously.

Sheldon knew that it was not a small competition. On the contrary, it was very authoritative. Whether the plagiarism was serious depended on the competition.

However, it was a serious problem in this competition.

He frowned and thought it was Nora's mistake. She shouldn't submit the design without telling him. What's more, she had given him the design. She should design another one if she wanted to participate in the competition.

Nora pursed her lips and realized what Sheldon was like. He refreshed his impression in her mind again and again

How could he question her? Did he mean that it was her mistake to take part in the competition? "What's the matter? Couldn't I take part in the competition?”

Sheldon choked and he furrowed up his eyebrows more deeply.

Nora continued to say as if she hadn't seen him, "Sheldon, do you know Aubrey?"

"How could I know her? Of course not," Sheldon denied immediately.

"Well, I thought she was a designer or employee of the Jones Group. After all, I only gave you a copy. I don't know her. And I really don't know how she got my design.”
