Bettany’s pupils contracted. She hadn’t anticipated Doris posing the question so directly. She was momentarily stunned.
Doris lowered her head, took a deep breath, and then suddenly raised her gaze to address everyone. “Everyone, I must confess one thing. The inspiration for this painting did indeed come from another artwork, but it was solely for the purpose of seeking inspiration. I meticulously crafted this painting stroke by stroke, from start to finish. It bears the imprint of my toil and dedication.”
With that, she offered a profound bow and stepped back, adopting a dignified and upright stance.
Observing her in such a state, Bettany felt a sense of uncertainty, leaving her somewhat suspended.
Doris had the advantage in this situation. She openly acknowledged that her inspiration came from Bettany. If Bettany were to affirm that the painting resembled her in this moment, the judges wouldn’t perceive it as plagiarism; they would only see it as drawing upon some creative inspiration.
Above all, Bettany’s original creation had been destroyed, making her one–sided claims far from convincing.
As anticipated, some of the judges displayed a bias in favor of Doris and voiced their support for her. “Inspiration shouldn’t be labeled as plagiarism. It’s likely that both paintings share some similarities, but the rest should be distinctive,” they argued.
As they spoke, their eyes were fixed inquisitively on Bettany, seeking her response. Bettany moved her lips, wishing to convey: “No, it’s not just a little resemblance; it’s entirely alike, precisely identical.”
Nevertheless, before she could utter a word, another judge chimed in, stating, “It’s undoubtedly distinct. Even if the original artwork were placed right here, it would be impossible for it to be an exact match. Besides, who would leave their completed painting in someone else’s house for an extended period?”
Upon hearing this, Bettany was rendered utterly speechless.
Even Bettany herself was somewhat perplexed. She had only shown the painting to Doris, and after Doris had damaged it, she had retrieved it.
In such a brief timeframe, how could Doris recall it and replicate it with such precision?
Even Bettany herself couldn’t achieve such a feat.
Furthermore, it had been such a long time that she had nearly forgotten the appearance of the original painting.
Crucially, Bettany was excessively timid. After being confined by Marcus for an

critiquing Olivia, Bettany was overwhelmed with fear, and tears welled up in her eyes, rendering them a shade of red. She extended her arms to shield Olivia and exclaimed vehemently, “Stop discussing Olivia. The fact remains that Doris’s painting did imitate my artwork. That is the truth.
