Revenge In Repose (Valerie and Aiden) novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163

As soon as the statement was released, it sparked an intense reaction on X.

The comment section instantly exploded in discussion:

[So not only is this not original, it’s actually someone else’s work?)

[They just slapped their name on someone else’s work? And even dragged the real creator into it? This is next level shameless.)

[So to sum it up: it wasn’t you who plagiarized–someone else did. But you accidentally published the stolen piece, unknowingly joined in, and now you’re super regretful and blaming it all on her, so the internet can roast her instead? Got it.)

[LMAO and they’re even saying it with such confidence? The audacity!]

[This move is so dirty… no one’s beating that level of shamelessness…]

[Summary: even the original work was plagiarized, and this duo performed it and even sold a few songs to Arianna Reed. But after Arianna’s song blew up, the plagiarism scandal broke, and she immediately shifted the blame to the Jasmine and Meredith duo. Then, after taking the heat, Jasmine and Meredith passed the buck again. Now, it’s all landed on Vaterie’s shoulders. Any kind soul wanna dig into who this Valerie actually is?]

Jasmine and Meredith had been glued to their screen watching the backlash online. Seeing themselves being slammed so harshly left them deeply unsettled.

But thankfully, public outrage quickly shifted away from them and zeroed in on Valerie instead.

[Valerie Clark, third–year jewelry design student at Reano University, widely known as the school beauty, and… married.]

[??? Married? Are you serious? She’s already married?]

[Yep, she’s married… I’m from the Finance Department at Reano University. Back when the new CEO of the Walker Group came to our school for a speech, he donated a Steinway piano to the auditorium because she liked to play. She also donated 3 million dollars to upgrade the music rooms and helped upgrade all the jewelry–making equipment…]

[Wait–what?? She’s the CEO’s wife?]

[No way. Someone like that still has to plagiarize? That’s disgusting.]

[So just because you’re important, you think it’s okay to steal other people’s work? Gross, gross, gross. Once a plagiarist, always a plagiarist!]

[What, being rich gives you the right to do whatever you want now? Plagiarism is plagiarism!]

Seeing the tide of comments turn, Jasmine quietly deleted all the posts that criticized them and used a burner account to “like” all the ones attacking

Valerie.

While Jasmine and Meredith secretly celebrated, Arianna was already in a full–blown crisis.

Sure, she could shift the blame for the song itself to Jasmine and Meredith–but the lyrics? She had personally admitted to writing them in front of the media.

Now, the haters had turned her interview clip into a meme, spreading it everywhere like wildfire.

[Arianna Reed: I chose to collaborate on this song because it truly moved me. I was so inspired that I stayed up all night to write the lyrics. I never imagined it would turn out to be plagiarized. It felt like someone stole my own child.]

Chapter 163

ILOLI’m crying. She really said that? Girl, that’s a short poem Adrienne wrote years appl @Adirlerina Patty if anyone’s child was dele,

[Arianna Reed has no shame! A total disgrace!]

Arianna was seething as she read those posts. She immediately ordered her agent to take everything down–no matter what it took.

She threw a fortune into damage control, and eventually, the plagiarism buzz began to die down before long, a brand new trending topic burst onto the

scene.

[Truth About the Plagiarism Scandal]

Arianna had tried to avoid looking at these trending topics, but curiosity got the better of her, and she tapped in.

Fortunately, she was logged in on a burner account on her iPad, so she could browse freely without pressure.

Seeing Valerie singled out and dragged through the mud, Arianna’s eyes lit up. She laughed and said, “So all those songs were plagiarized by Valerie Clark? Ha! I knew she wasn’t some innocent little angel!”

As she spoke, she picked up the phone and called her assistant, instructing, “Everyone’s roasting Valerie. Go buy up some trending tags and throw her a little ‘support‘–best if we can drag the Walker Group into this too. Spend big. The more viral it gets, the better!”

Adrianna thought, ‘This wretched Valerie. With this scandal added on top of the marriage drama, people within the Walker family were bound to raise a

stink. And once this reached Mr. Waylon Walker himself, let’s see who would still dare defend her!‘

Arianna let out a cold laugh, then had her agent contact Jasmine and Meredith again.

Once she confirmed that Valerie herself indeed wrote the songs, Arianna ordered them to post everything online–sheet music, evidence, handwriting samples–whatever it took to thoroughly crush Valerie with proof.

With a big enough financial push, the hashtags surged onto the trending board.

[All Songs by the Jasmine and Meredith Came from the Walker Group CEO’s Wife]

[Walker Group CEO’s Wife Accused of Plagiarism!]

[College Junior Marries Into Wealth, Turns Out to Be a Thief]

Sure enough, netizens were hooked. The topic’s view count skyrocketed past ten million.

[No way… even the CEO’s wife is doing this kind of thing? For what?]

[What else? Clout, obviously. Disgusting.]

[But wasn’t it the Chen–Han duo who released and profited from the songs? What’s this got to do with the CEO’s wife?]
