Chapter 70
Jocelyn was stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with surprise as she watched Abel approaching her, his purple earrings gleaming in the sunlight. He then stood directly next to Jocelyn.
Lily frowned, her eyes a little dazed. “Who are you?”
Abel lifted the corners of his lips and smiled, but his tone was a little aggressive. “I am just an enthusiastic citizen and I just came to watch. Why? Do you have a problem with that?”
Lily shook her head.
Abel took a step forward, raised his voice, and said in a disdainful tone, “Lily, stop putting on a show in front of reporters. Are you not done with this kind of dirty trick when you’re trying to fake your suicide?” Lily took a step back subconsciously and shook her head helplessly. “I didn’t!” Abel looked at her mockingly. “If I kill you and apologize to your corpse, will you forgive me?” Lily’s eyes widened and she looked very pitiful. “How can you say that?” Abel disagreed. “Then how can you do this? You also know that not all people who do wrong deserve to be forgiven by others, right? “Why didn’t you apologize to Jocelyn when you stole her boyfriend? You copied her work for two years, why didn’t you apologize to her? When you faked your suicide and made thousands of people on the net slander Jocelyn, why didn’t you say sorry to her? It’s too late to pretend to be pitiful now.”
After Abel said that, everyone immediately came back to their senses as if they had just received a blow to the head.
Yes, Lily had done so many abhorrent things, and now she was apologizing to get Jocelyn to forgive her and win the sympathy of the reporters. Did she think everyone is an idiot? Some reporters even started whispering among themselves. “She still has the gall to ask Jocelyn for forgiveness after doing such a thing.” “Yeah, she’s just acting in front of us! Did you forget what she’s called? Director White!” “If she
really wanted Jocelyn to forgive her, she wouldn’t force Jocelyn to forgive her in front of everyone before the court session.”
Lily heard all of those and she could also see the disdain in their eyes.
Michael knew that Abel’s appearance had thwarted his plan, so he directly protected Lily and then walked towards the courthouse together with her.
Jocelyn glanced at Abel. “Thank you.”
Abel laughed. “Tsk, Lil Sis, who are you to me? Don’t be so polite. I really admire your ability and I can’t stand that Lily woman.”
Jocelyn was still grateful, but she turned around and left after seeing that he was still joking, around.
Abel quickly followed. “Don’t be like that. At least I stepped forward to help you just now.” Jocelyn remembered the promise she made to Skyler last night and that she would stay away from Abel.
She was expressionless. “I didn’t ask you to.”
Abel raised his eyebrows. “Lil Sis, you have no conscience if you say that.”
As soon as Yale arrived at the courthouse, he saw Abel chasing after Jocelyn and walking into the courthouse. Yale’s face changed slightly and he went directly to a reporter to find out what happened just now. Then, he immediately sent a message to Skyler to tell him that Abel came to sit in on today’s plagiarism case. This lawsuit was hyped up by the outside world, but in fact, it took only less than two hours. Jocelyn had all of the evidence, including the design drafts, handwriting identification certificates, and multiple audio and chat records.
Coupled with the support of the outside world, Lily’s side had almost nothing to fight back.
In the end, the verdict was that Lily plagiarized as many as 21 of Jocelyn’s jewelry design drafts which constituted a serious infringement on Ms. Jocelyn White’s reputation. Lily was ordered to immediately stop the spread of Jocelyn’s design drafts and publicly apologized to Jocelyn. Plus, she should also compensate Jocelyn for her economic losses of 2 million dollars and pay a reasonable expenditure of 23 thousand dollars. Furthermore, Lily should also immediately stop post-production and sales of Jocelyn’s design draft.
The reporters had already sent out the results of the lawsuit the moment it ended.
Lily was convicted of plagiarism and she had to pay compensation and apologize to Jocelyn. At that moment, Jocelyn rose to fame. After the court case, Lily was glaring at Jocelyn with red eyes when she walked out of the door Jocelyn ignored her and strode away. Michael had a horrible look on his face and as he was about to chase after Jocelyn, Yale stopped him
Yale remembered clearly how Michael treated Jocelyn. He said in a deep voice, “Mr. White, please have some self-respect. Don’t force president Moore to take action against you.” Michael’s expression changed and in the end, he did not chase after Jocelyn. So, he turned around to go back to Lily. When Lily saw that her father looked a little off-colored, she said in a deep voice, “Dad, don’t
be scared. Even though Jocelyn married Skyler, he never did anything to you for what you did to her back then. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Also, not only did Skyler never acknowledge her position, but he also didn’t come to listen in on the court case. Clearly, her existence doesn’t matter to him. Don’t scare yourself too much.” When Michael heard that, he nodded with a conflicted expression on his face. Abel caught Jocelyn out the door. “Lil Sis, you won. How do you plan to thank me?”
Jocelyn did not want anything to do with him so she said, “I’ll win without you too.”
Abel raised his eyebrow. “Lil Sis, you can’t say that. I helped you one round in front of the reporters before the court session started. You can’t be so cruel as a person.”
“Thank you then. Also, we’re not that close, stop calling me Lil Sis.” Jocelyn’s voice was cold and distant.
She walked to the side of the car and she was about to leave after opening the door.
Abel went up to her and grabbed her arm. He had a grin on his face and he looked like an absolute rascal. “Lil Sis, don’t be like this. You won the court case, we should at least go celebrate.”
Jocelyn frowned. When she wanted to push Abel’s hand away, she felt someone pulling her away forcefully. Then, she fell into someone’s chest.
She had not pulled her arm away from Abel yet. Then, a deep and cold voice said from above her head, “Stay away from her.”
