Chapter 426: Chapter 426: Who Said There’s Only One Surveillance?

Yigol Mamet felt puzzled.

Why did Zara Woods seem so calm this time, not afraid of being exposed at all? Could it be that she wasn’t the one who destroyed the materials?

Howard Scot’s face relaxed after hearing Zara’s words, and his anxiety gradually dissipated.

No… there shouldn’t be any problems. The surveillance camera was broken, right? Even if it couldn’t prove that Xaviera Evans had ruined the materials, no one could prove her innocence either. Besides, Xaviera was just a newcomer while he was a well-known designer, so his words would naturally be more credible.

After some contemplation, Howard confidently nodded, “Of course I agree! Whoever destroyed the materials should be disqualified from the competition, and they should apologize to everyone.”

Xaviera gave a faint smile.

Confidently, Howard said, “Xaviera, you claimed that you didn’t destroy the materials, but do you have any evidence to prove your innocence? I think you’re just good at deception!”

Xaviera responded with a nonchalant smile, “Mr. Scot, actually, when you first said you saw me destroy the materials, I wanted to refute you, but… I thought your lying was quite amusing, which was why I endured it.”

Swallowing nervously, Howard sneered, “Hmph! You don’t have any evidence, you already admitted that the brooch is yours! Isn’t that the strongest proof?”

Xaviera raised her eyebrows, “Mr. Scot, the material area is not a restricted zone. I came here to get materials and accidentally dropped my brooch. What’s so strange about that? Can it really be used as evidence?”

Howard felt that Xaviera was just quibbling, but she actually had no substantial evidence. If she continued to drag things out like this, everyone would only hate her more, and her end would be even worse.

“Xaviera is just stalling for time. I suggest canceling her participation in the competition right away, lest one person affects the whole progress of the competition!”

The person in charge hesitated slightly, glanced at Zara Woods, and finally spoke reluctantly, “Miss Evans, don’t make this matter too embarrassing. You better…”

“Mr. Scot,” Xaviera interrupted.

“I don’t want to argue with you whether my brooch can be used as evidence, but…”

Her voice stopped for a moment, and then a sneer crossed her face, “I just want to ask why Mr. Scot is so certain that there’s only one surveillance camera in the material area?”

The crowd gasped.

Xaviera’s calm voice entered everyone’s ears, “Mr. Scot, if you want to prove I destroyed the materials, a brooch is hardly enough. Hasn’t everyone lost things before? How could that serve as evidence?”

“Actually, the simplest way is to…”

Xaviera grinned, enunciating each word, “check the surveillance!”

Howard’s pupils suddenly shrank, and he blurted out, “Nonsense! The surveillance in the material area is obviously broken!”

“Who said there’s only one camera?”

In a relaxed tone, Xaviera explained, “In the previous competitions, there was only one surveillance camera in the material area, but to make the competition more transparent, it’s possible that several more cameras have been installed. Mr. Scot, did you think that as long as the surveillance was broken, no matter how you frame me, I would be defenseless?”

Xaviera’s voice suddenly turned cold, “ZR President, I request to check the surveillance!”

The crowd gasped. Who was Xaviera talking to? The president of ZR also came? Was he among the crowd?

At this moment, the door of the meeting room slowly opened, and a deep voice came from inside, “Granted.”

The man leisurely leaned on the sofa, his long legs crossed together, watching the crowd with interest.

The crowd widened their eyes, unable to believe the scene before them.

The ZR president actually came to the material area himself, and had been watching from behind the scenes. Everyone immediately became nervous, as this competition was hosted by ZR. If they were to offend this big figure, they would be finished in the design industry.

But he actually agreed to let Xaviera check the surveillance?

The assistant emerged from the meeting room, coldly glanced at Howard Scot, and said seriously, “The president has agreed to Miss Evans’ request to check the surveillance. Seeing is believing, and after identifying the person who destroyed the materials, their eligibility for the competition must be revoked!”

Zara Woods’ face changed, her body tensed with anxiety.

For years, she had been secretly investigating the ZR president, trying to get close to him, but he remained mysterious, with nobody knowing his appearance until now.
