RedNovelChapter 190 Chapter 190: With Harold in the room, there was no way he'd let Eric's plagiarism cto light. To preserve their family's reputation, Harold would make sure Khloe was brought down.
As Lorraine had predicted, Harold's gaze turned to Joshua, a look of both amusement and contempt in his eyes. "Joshua, you really have a fascinating daughter." Joshua, drenched in sweat, shot a hateful glare at Khloe on the stage. Turning to Harold, he groaned. "It's all my ex-wife's fault for bringing such a disgrace into the world! Harold, do what you must with her. I'll cooperate completely." Seeing Joshua's submission, Harold didn't say another word and simply gave a short command to the bodyguard standing beside him.

You say I copied your work, but in science, it's common to see similar elements used by different researchers for various objectives." He paused, looking around at the audience who was intently watching, his eyes briefly meeting Harold's with an unspoken understanding.
With newfound calm, he carried on, "When it comes to diabetes research, many researchers are working on improving injection methods to make treatments more effective. The approaches are limited, and I've based my work on thorough literature reviews and extensive experimentation. Even if our results align, it doesn't prove I copied your work. After all, there have been instances where Nobel Prize-winning research produced identical results in different countries just months apart. Should we call that plagiarism too?" Khloe saw right through Eric's attempt to cloud the issue and scoffed. "Eric, you're intentionally muddying the waters. The Nobel Prize examples are completely different from our situation. In that case, scientists from different countries happened to reach similar conclusions independently, each with a full and impeccable record of their work. But as for you? You talk about extensive research and countless experiments, but can you honestly present a flawless, transparent research trail?" She pressed on, her gaze freezing as it bore into Eric. "But there's one thing you've completely overlooked-the formulations I create all bear my signature, and upon completion, they reveal the pattern of an iris flower. That's my personal security measure for every formula I develop." Just as Khloe finished, the large screen that had been replaying the experiment footage, perfectly timed, displayed the moment Eric's compound was completed.
A brief flash of a green iris flower appeared, unmistakably visible to everyone in the hall.
As the image of the green iris flower appeared on the large screen, a heavy silence settled over the auditorium, quickly followed by a ripple of disbelief.
The revelation caught everyone off guard. Those who had held on to a shred of trust in Eric, or remained neutral, now wore expressions of realization and disapproval.
g☐☐☐ov- check it out! "Oh my goodness, it really does have the iris pattern. Eric must have plagiarized!" "I can't believe he would sink so low in committing academic fraud, especially when he appeared so capable. It shows that appearances can be deceiving." "He was so adamant in his denials before, but it's clear now he was just guilty and trying to cover his tracks." The undeniable evidence sparked a chorus of condemnation for Eric. His face turned red with anger as his gaze fixed on Sloane, who had given him the formulation.

He cursed himself for trusting her to produce such a sophisticated agent. m Never had he expected Khloe to e embed her distinctive mark into her research, especially since she had never mentioned it during their relationship.
Eric's chest tightened in frustration; one reckless mistake had led him into this humiliating situation alhdue 19 to Sloane's actions. Sloane, shaken by the intensity of Eric's glare, took a step back, her voice faltering as she tried to explain, though the words eluded her. "Eric, I... I didn't know it would turn out like this. I thought..."
Seeing Sloane stumble over her words, Eric felt a surge of frustration, the urge to slap her rising within him. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
