Mabel lowered her eyes and sighed. “She was my best friend.”
Wayne immediately understood the entire situation. He could not help but feel melancholic over this. This whole scenario was caused by someone with bad intentions. He did not pursue the matter as he did not want to hurt the artist further by reminding her of this.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave, Miss Quinn, Mr. Erlington.”
Mabel lowered her head at both CEOs. Lucy looked at Mabel sadly and waved her off.
After that, she turned to Wayne. “Mr. Erlington, about this…”
Wayne gave a wave of his hand. “I understand.”
“Judging by the hand-drawn drafts she provided, I believe that she's the original creator of this comic. But what do you plan to do about Luna Arthouse, Miss Quinn?”
Lucy closed her eyes, and when she opened them, she came to a decision. “Lulu Comics isn’t a company that’s easily bullied. They have to pay the price for plagiarizing our comic. I’ve already sent out lawyer's letter to them. This case will go on trial on the fourth, which is next Tuesday.
“Before that happens, we'll be collecting more evidence and witnesses to ensure that Luna Arthouse will never see the light of day.”
Wayne looked at the young woman in front of him with admiration. “Good. I feel better with your promise, Miss Quinn.”
Lucy glanced at Wayne. “ Are you willing to sign that contract in your hand now, Mr. Erlington?”
Wayne smiled but shook his head. “Nope. I’m not planning on signing this contract.”
Lucy’s heart sank, but she continued smiling. “May I know the reason, Mr. Erlington?”
Wayne kept drumming on the table, and for some reason, Lucy found the smile on his face quite cunning.
“I’ll sign the contract once you win this case, Miss Quinn.”
Wily old fox! Lucy could not help cursing in her heart.
