Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love novel Chapter 134

“Maple?” Lucy called out gently to Mabel.

Mable wiped away her tears and quickly gave Lucy a nod of her head. “I’m sorry. I didn’t cry on purpose, Lucy. I’ll get back to work right now.”

Lucy stopped her in frustration. “It’s fine. Just rest here for a while. If you don’t mind, how about telling me what exactly happened?”

She was a little hesitant about getting Mabel to tell the truth.

It would make Mabel feel better to tell the truth, but at the look of Mabel…

The concerned look on Lucy’s face must have been too obvious because Mabel eventually revealed everything, “We knew each other back in high school. She’s two years older than I am, and she enrolled in art college first.

"We could talk about anything under the sun, and we told each other everything, including our ideas for comics. However, the closer we got, the more we realized how similar our drawing styles were.

“It never occurred to me that she was the one responsible for plagiarizing my comic this time. She was the reason I joined this company.”

Lucy glanced at Mabel with a stunned look on her face. “She was the reason? What do you mean?”

Mabel lowered her head. “You know her too, Lucy. She used to work here.”

She gave Lucy a name, and Lucy immediately remembered the name as one of the comic artists whom Luna had poached.

Lucy tried to remember what that person looked like.

She had the impression that the woman had strong ethics. She was always smiling and enjoyed helping others. Why did she end up doing something like this? Mabel gave her answer.

Not long after Mabel left, Lucy returned to her desk and she went into a rare daze.

However, she quickly pulled herself together, and a determined look flashed in her eyes. She quietly promised Mabel that she would do her best about the situation.

…

Everyone in Lucy’s company was prepared for what came next early the next morning.

This was the day the investors would come for a meeting. This battle involved their credibility, and everyone was not about to let anything slip.

A Rolls-Royce soon appeared downstairs, and a middle-aged man got out of the car. It was Wayne Erlington, the man who wanted to invest in Lucy’s company.
