Chapter 141 Chapter 141 My body stiffened , and I gritted my teeth and sat down .
Gwendolyn suddenly looked at me and crawled towards me , grabbing my pants , her voice desperate and on the verge of collapse , Skylar , Im sorry .
It was me , I was so wrong .
I instructed Natalia to switch your design drafts .
I knew her father was sick and needed money urgently .
I bribed someone around my cousin and used his account to transfer money to Natalia .
I naively thought that even if you found out it was my cousin , you wouldnt do anything to him .
The companys surveillance video was also hacked by me .
Everything was my fault .
I shouldnt have been jealous of you , shouldnt have targeted you .
I truly know that I was wrong .
Please ask Lukas to spare me , please .
My expression was grim , and I sat there stiffly without speaking .

Gwendolyn desperately held onto my pant leg , her voice filled with despair , Skylar , youre a designer , and you know how important hands are to a designer , right ? Can a designer still create things with just only one hand ? I dont want to lose my hand , Skylar , please ! I beg you , please forgive me , for the sake of being fellow designers .
Both James and Lukas remained silent , and everyone in the private room seemed to be waiting for my reaction .
I felt my heart sink heavily as I looked at Lukas .
Can I talk to her alone ? Lukass attitude was cold , As you wish .
I sighed softly and looked at Gwendolyn before speaking , Did you join Strakovski Jewelry just to target me ? Gwendolyn looked embarrassed and wiped away her tears , Yes .
My eyes flickered as I continued , Is this incident related to Olivia ? Gwendolyn was taken aback and shook her head , No.
To be precise , Olivia was aware of everything , and she even had the suspicion of incitement .
She even provided information about the Morning Light Jewelry Competition .
But in the end , everything was done by Gwendolyn herself , and it would be easy to prove .
I was somewhat surprised ; it was not what I expected .
Then , did you switch my design drafts because I slapped you when we were at Butterfly Pavilion ? I really couldnt understand .
It was just a minor argument , there was no need to make such a big dispute .
I thought that the matter would end there .
Even if Gwendolyn got angry and wanted revenge , even if she sent someone to beat me , I wouldnt be too angry .
But Gwendolyn secretly switched my design drafts ; that was something I couldnt accept .
If Lucas hadnt discovered it beforehand , I would have won the Jewel of the Century Competition , but I came back empty handed , and everyone would have doubted that my previous award was unworthy .
Gwendolyn looked up at me , her eyes red , Do you really not know why I targeted you ? I looked puzzled , Should I know ? 14.02 Fecone Crow My Ston Drothers D 86.4 % Chapter 141 Gwendolyns voice choked , and she looked at Lukas , her voice aggrieved and sorrowful , I like Lukas , Cant you see that ? When you slapped me that day , even if I went to my cousin to vent , I didnt have the intention of confronting you .
My cousin lost to you in billiards and admired you .
But why does Lukas stand by your side ? Why ? Ive liked him for so many years , but he doesnt even spare me a glance .
Youve only known him for such a short time , so why does he stand by your side ? Tell me , why ? Why does he have the right to do this? I like him so much , but now , just for you , he wants to cut off my hand , Skylar , are you pleased to see me end up like this ? Are you ecstatic ? Gwendolyns voice became somewhat hysterical , she let go of my pants , sat on the ground without any composure , and lost all semblance of dignity .
My expression was extremely complicated ; I never thought that the ultimate reason would be Lukas , My voice sounded somewhat helpless , Gwendolyn , if you like Lukas , it has nothing to do with me .
You shouldnt bring your personal emotions into work .
Doing so not only ruins me but also affects Strakovski Jewelry .
If you really like Lukas , you shouldnt do this .
Moreover , Lukas is not siding with me ; he only stands for fairness and justice .
Gwendolyn suddenly burst into laughter , as if she had gone mad , her voice filled with sarcasm , Fairness and justice , haha , Skylar , you are so naive .
Do you actually say that Lukas stands for fairness and justice ? You are simply ridiculous .
Who in Mediopolis doesnt know that Lukas is biased and partial ? How could Gwendolyn not know ? Gwendolyn looked at me and spoke directly , Skylar , you make me sick .
Jamess face looked grim , Gwendolyn , thats enough .
Gwendolyn seemed to have nothing to lose and said fiercely , What , James ? Are you going to stand up for fairness and justice too ? Jamess face turned ashen , Are you really trying to court death ? Gwendolyn laughed bitterly , I surrender .
If I admit my mistake , will Lukas stand up for Skylar ? If I confess , will he spare me ? James fell silent .
I felt extremely tired ; I glanced at Lukas and said , Lukas , hand her over to the police .
I hope she faces legal consequences , not your personal judgment .
Lukas raised his eyes , his voice icy , Are you sure ? My face tensed , and I pressed my lips together , Im sure.
Lukass gaze was heavy , Skylar , havent you said that you wont play the saint when dealing with the real mastermind ? If you want the law to punish her , then I have to tell you that with the King Familys capabilities , she might be in today and out tomorrow .
In such cases , throwing some money at it can make it go away .
I spoke earnestly , Its not about playing the saint ; its what a normal person does when facing such a situation seek legal protection .
Besides , I dont want you to do something so cruel just because of me .
Lukas sneered at me , If this is considered cruel to you , then you really have a long way to learn .
