Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Too Double Standard

Translator: 549690339

If Zara Woods could leverage her connections with ZR President, she wouldn’t need to participate in various competitions anymore. She would even receive invitations to be a judge at major events and have access to endless resources and networks.

However, after investigating for a long time, she hadn’t found any clues. The man always appeared with a mask and never stood among the crowd. Instead, he always sat in a chair, overlooking the entire scene.

Everyone, therefore, suspected that ZR President was actually disabled, unable to stand, and wore the mask because his appearance had been ruined and he was too ashamed to show his face.

Zara thought that such a disabled person would like her gentle, water-like nature. She intended to touch his heart with true affection and let him feel the warmth of the world…

But unexpectedly, their first meeting was under these circumstances, which might negatively impact her impression on ZR President.

At the moment, Howard Scot was trembling all over with terror in his eyes. Taking a few steps back, he struggled desperately, “How could there be surveillance in the material area… Xaviera Evans, you stop talking nonsense.”

ZR President furrowed his brow, appearing impatient. The assistant immediately understood his boss’s impatience and shot a cold, warning-filled glance at Howard, “Bring up the surveillance video!”

The staff quickly pulled up the footage. The timestamp on the screen was from this afternoon. Though the angle was different from the original surveillance, the image was very clear, showing everyone’s faces clearly.

There really was another camera!

“Wasn’t there only one camera in the material room?”

“There wasn’t one before, but they added one this year!”

“Look! It’s Xaviera Evans!”

Everyone’s eyes were glued to the screen, watching as Xaviera entered the material area and took her materials from the corresponding section. The footage also showed Xaviera’s brooch accidentally falling off.

“Xaviera didn’t destroy the materials!”

“Yeah, she didn’t even touch the gray bead! Look! Howard’s here now.”

Howard’s body stiffened and trembled slightly.

How was this possible! He had destroyed one surveillance camera; how could there be another?

“Ah! It’s Howard! It’s Howard who destroyed the gray bead!”

“He picked up Xaviera’s brooch and put it in the pile of materials. He deliberately framed Xaviera! Despicable!”

“So calculating! No wonder he was in such a hurry to force Xaviera to admit her mistake! He’s just guilty!”

Howard felt as if his blood was freezing, and his mind was in chaos. Panic-stricken, he roared, “This is fake! Don’t watch it anymore! I won’t allow you to watch!”

The assistant coldly waved his hand, and the bodyguards immediately rushed in, restraining Howard.

“Sorry, Mr. Scot, just now you agreed that those who destroy materials should be disqualified from the competition. Now you are no longer a contestant. Please leave immediately!”

No, this couldn’t be!

He was the young master of the Salma family and a famous designer. How could he be disqualified from the competition?

Howard’s face turned pale, and he begged Zara for help with his eyes.

Xaviera smiled gently, “Why is Mr. Scot looking at Miss Woods? It was you who destroyed the materials. What does it have to do with Miss Woods? Do you expect her to save you?”

Howard’s mind went numb, and he looked hideous as he screamed, “Zara! Tell me why there’s a surveillance camera! Explain it to me!”

Zara trembled and involuntarily retreated.

Xaviera spoke calmly, “I remember that just now Miss Woods also agreed that those who destroy materials should be disqualified. If you plead for him, I might think that you and Mr. Scot are in this together.”

Yigol Mamet chimed in, “That’s right! Even though the materials Howard destroyed belonged to Zara, he took Xaviera’s materials as well. If Howard successfully framed Xaviera, she would be expelled from the competition. In any case, it’s Xaviera who’s at a disadvantage.”

“Zara was constantly persuading Xaviera to admit her guilt and apologize to everyone just now. If she pleads for Howard now, that would be a double standard.”

“Could it be… that you and Howard conspired to frame Xaviera?”

At this remark, everyone immediately looked at Zara with suspicion.

“I…I didn’t.”

“Zara! You explain it to them! I did this for you! I have no grudge against Xaviera. Why would I harm her if it wasn’t for…”

Zara’s face lost all color.

Howard had admitted that he destroyed the materials and framed Xaviera for Zara’s sake.
