Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love

"Then why did you apologize to me?"

Lucy was curious. If Mabel had not plagiarized the comic, there was no need to be acting so timidly. She even looked like she was guilty about something. It was very misleading.

Mabel lowered her head guiltily. "When I was creating that comic, I discussed my ideas with another person. She was my best friend, and I'd always tell her about everything I wanted to draw, but..."

It was surprising to see how calm Lucy was. "I see. So, your best friend divulged the story of your comic?"

Lucy finally understood how the comic got leaked. She felt sorry for Mabel, but she was not surprised by what happened.

From Lucy's point of view, such occurrences were normal. After all, even her family she had lived with for more than 20 years would sell out the daughter they brought up for their own benefits or something profitable. Moreover, this was a friend who was not even related to Mabel by blood.

"I... I don't want to point fingers at her, but... but..." Mabel tried her best to find an excuse for her best friend, but it was a fact that her best friend was the only person she talked to about the comic. Mabel could not think of any other suspects besides her best friend.
