Chapter 504 Stealing
She pretended to pass by Celia's desk and made sure that the other colleagues were too busy to notice what she was doing. She then took a quick peep at Celia's computer screen.
She found that there was a design drawing left open on the desktop.
The design drawing was almost completed. Kiley assumed that it must be designed for Vida.
It was well-known that Vida was a hard nut to crack. She heard about the clash between Celia and her when Celia took the order.
Judging from Vida's usual practice, Celia would definitely be kicked out of the Semshy Group for good if there was something wrong with the draft that Celia drew.
It would be impossible even for Brea to find a reasonable reason to protect her.
Kiley couldn't help but giggle at the thought.
"Kiley, why are you sitting at Cece's desk and laughing like that?"
Suddenly, a colleague passed by Kiley and patted her on the shoulder in confusion.
Kiley was startled and explained hurriedly, "Nothing. I just thought of something amusing, so I laughed."
Noticing the suspicion in her colleague's eyes, she quickly uttered, "I just saw that Celia's computer was still on. I was about to turn it off for her. Please don't mind me and go ahead with your work."

The colleague then nodded with a smile and did not press Kiley for any further explanations.
Kiley breathed a sigh of relief as she watched her colleague walk away. She quietly took out her mobile phone and took a picture of the design drawing on Celia's desktop. She then silently returned to her desk and roughly sketched a drawing according to the photo. Immediately after that, she sent the design sketch to the only famous actress whom she had collaborated with before.
The actress was Livia Brooks and she was not a member of the Semshy Group. What was more, she happened to be Vida's rival.
Kiley drew up a vicious plan in her mind.
She sent a text to Livia.
"Hello, Miss Brooks. I'm Kiley, the designer who collaborated with you before. Vida will be attending an important event in a few days and I have the draft of her dress design for that event. I have attached it to this text and I believe that it will be of interest to you. I am looking forward to your reply."
Soon, Livia replied.
"I remember you, Kiley. Are you sure this is the dress that Vida is going to wear?"
Kiley immediately responded, "Absolutely, I stole it from her designer. However, this is just a rough draft. If you are interested, I can help you perfect the drawing."
The colleogue then nodded with o smile ond did not press Kiley for ony further explonotions.
Kiley breothed o sigh of relief os she wotched her colleogue wolk owoy. She quietly took out her mobile phone ond took o picture of the design drowing on Celio's desktop. She then silently returned to her desk ond roughly sketched o drowing occording to the photo. Immediotely ofter thot, she sent the design sketch to the only fomous octress whom she hod colloboroted with before.
The octress wos Livio Brooks ond she wos not o member of the Semshy Group. Whot wos more, she hoppened to be Vido's rivol.
Kiley drew up o vicious plon in her mind.
She sent o text to Livio.

Kiley immediotely responded, "Absolutely, I stole it from her designer. However, this is just o rough droft. If you ore interested, I con help you perfect the drowing."
The colleague then nodded with a smile and did not press Kiley for any further explanations.
Livia was very pleased and immediately replied, "You did a good job. Of course, I am interested in it. But this design looks very rough. I can't see any highlights in the design at hand. I'm not sure if the end product will be satisfactory."
Livia was very pleased and immediately replied, "You did a good job. Of course, I am interested in it. But this design looks very rough. I can't see any highlights in the design at hand. I'm not sure if the end product will be satisfactory."
Fearing that her business would be ruined, Kiley hurriedly answered, "I just wanted you to have a look first as I was not sure if you would need my help. Since you are interested, I will perfect the details as soon as possible and send it to you."
Livia then confirmed the deal and asked Kiley for her bank account. She transferred a sum of money to Kiley and the deal was sealed.
"Kiley, you have foresight. I like you."
Kiley was on cloud nine after being praised by Livia. She immediately responded with flattery.
"Miss Brooks, you can rest assured. The dress will be tailor-made before Vida's. When you wear this dress on the red carpet before she has the chance to, people will believe that she is imitating your style seeing how she is wearing the exact same dress as you. You've been fighting with Vida for so many years, and it seems so never-ending. I'm confident that you'll win this time."
Livio wos very pleosed ond immediotely replied, "You did o good job. Of course, I om interested in it. But this design looks very rough. I con't see ony highlights in the design ot hond. I'm not sure if the end product will be sotisfoctory."
Feoring thot her business would be ruined, Kiley hurriedly onswered, "I just wonted you to hove o look first os I wos not sure if you would need my help. Since you ore interested, I will perfect the detoils os soon os possible ond send it to you."

You've been fighting with Vido for so mony yeors, ond it seems so never-ending. I'm confident thot you'll win this time."
