1235 The Illegitimate Child Goes Too Far
Qiao Xi said casually, “Miss Xia, you were probably just born 24 years ago, right? You said that these designs were drawn by your father when you were six or seven years old. At that time, my mother had already passed away, so it’s utterly impossible for her to have signed your father’s designs.”
Everyone looked at Xia Mengyan in shock. The discussions became more and more heated. Every word was like a thousand-kilogram rock smashing into Xia Mengyan’s heart, making the blood in her entire body freeze and making her tremble uncontrollably.
“Miss Xia Yunqiu’s designs were completed 24 years ago. At that time, there was a lawyer to notarize them, but Xia Mengyan said that Xia Ji designed them when she was six or seven years old. That was about 18 years ago. In other words, these designs were Xia Yunqiu’s. Now, they’re being occupied by Xia Ji!”
From the time, it was obvious that Xia Yunqiu completed her designs earlier than Xia Ji, according to Xia Mengyan’s words. After Xia Yunqiu passed away, it was impossible for anyone to forge evidence.
However, since they were Xia Yunqiu’s designs, why did the Xia family have to discuss a collaboration with the Luo family using Xia Ji’s name?
If Xia Ji was really occupying Xia Yunqiu’s designs, then this illegitimate child was going too far. Did he think that he could be fearless just because Miss Xia had passed away?
Everyone’s eyes were filled with disdain as they discussed softly. Their burning gazes were about to burn Xia Mengyan to ashes.
Xia Mengyan was flustered. Under Qiao Xi’s questioning and everyone’s disdainful gazes, she was on the verge of fainting. She could only lower her head and try her best to reduce her presence.
“Miss Xia, now that I’ve proven that these designs were drawn by my mother 24 years ago, please give me a reasonable explanation for your claim about how these designs were made by your father 18 years ago.”
“I…” Xia Mengyan opened her mouth, but she did not know where to start. Her face was pale, and her lips could not help but tremble. She bit her lip and forced herself to calm down.
Everyone stared at her, waiting for her answer. There was silence.
Qiao Xi chuckled and broke the silence. She said gently, “Miss Xia, don’t be nervous. You have plenty of time. Think carefully about what to say. I’ll wait for your explanation.”
Xia Mengyan’s legs went weak, and she almost fell. She looked at Qiao Xi’s disdainful eyes and was on the verge of breaking down. She never expected that Qiao Xi would actually have evidence.
Now that such a thing had happened, whose name would be on the designs when the Luo family came later if they could not explain it clearly?
If they continued to use her father’s name, Qiao Xi would definitely not let the matter rest. She might cause a scene at Xia Corporation, but if they put Xia Yunqiu’s name, wouldn’t it be equivalent to admitting that Xia Ji plagiarized Xia Yunqiu’s work?
Xia Mengyan listened to the discussions around her. Those people were mocking her father for being an illegitimate child and having a bad character. Otherwise, why would he steal his sister’s things?
Her teeth chattered. She originally thought that after so many years, no one would mention it again. Moreover, she had already become the eldest daughter of the Xia family and was doted on. Those people naturally did not dare to easily offend her. Now that her flaws were exposed in public, Xia Mengyan gritted her teeth in hatred. Her eyes were filled with resentment, and she wished for nothing more than strangle Qiao Xi to death.
Qiao Xi took a few steps closer and said softly, “Miss Xia?”
Xia Mengyan looked up, her eyes filled with panic. The sweat on her back had already soaked her clothes, making her look a little disheveled. After thinking for a long time, she gritted her teeth and was about to speak.
“This is just a misunderstanding!” At this moment, a dignified and old voice suddenly sounded. Xia Cheng and Old Madam Xia walked over with extremely gloomy expressions. Behind them was the ashen Xia Ji.
Seeing Xia Ji appear, the reporters immediately swarmed over and aimed their microphones and cameras at them.
Xia Cheng stood in front of the reporters and was not nervous at all. He still smiled kindly. “Everyone, please calm down. I’ll explain this matter clearly later. I want to handle the family matters first.”
“Xi Xi, you’re Mengyan’s younger sister. You know very well how Mengyan treats you. She has already tolerated you so much, so why are you still making things difficult for her in public? We could’ve talked about this at home, but you just had to be so unforgiving and make her lose her dignity with you.
One of the reporters said in confusion, “Chairman Xia, you’re saying that it’s inappropriate for Miss Qiao to be so unforgiving, but Miss Qiao has evidence to prove that these designs are Madam Xia Yunqiu’s work. Xia Mengyan was the one who said that they were Xia Ji’s work. This isn’t Miss Qiao’s fault!”
