NovelEnglishBy the end, Luna's features were all contorted. Was Aiden not supposed to be one of the best around? How could she not win this case?! She did not realize that Aiden was also frustrated. Did Luna not see the problem? Someone at her company had copied another artist's comic, and they always published later than the original.
If they were going to fake evidence, they should have at least taken down the website. With things as they were, winning this case would be a long shot! When the judge finally ended the case, Aiden was full of regret, wishing he could turn back time.
He should not have taken Luna's case just for the money from the Lucas family. Now, his reputation in the industry might be ruined for defending a bad cause with such a weak argument. The lawsuit ended with a whimper.

"Lucy, I..." As she spoke, tears started streaming down her face.
Lucy watched as Luna switched her emotions on and off like a pro. She could not help but be impressed by her acting skills.
She was so skilled that she could cry on cue and stop her smile in an instant.
"What are you-" Lucy interrupted Luna right away. She could not let her go on. Who knew what kind of sickening things she might say next? It was better to just stop Luna in her tracks.

Luna's performance also drew the attention of the jury, and several cameras swung their way. Why were there cameras? Since that tMatthew and Lucy caused a scene at the wedding, any move by the Quinn sisters was like a mafor the media. They would pounce like wolves, especially now with a public lawsuit.

While Luna had the tto weep and play her part, Lucy had no interest in being a spectacle for the crowd. She cut Luna off with a chill in her voice. "This time, you really dropped the ball managing your team. Make sure it doesn't happen again. I don't want a repeat of this mess."
She walked right past Luna, paying no mind to her tearful face that looked so pitiful and sad. After years of matching wits with Luna, she had learned an important lesson. She should never chat too much with Luna.
She was capable of twisting things around before anyone knew it. She was a champ at making up tall yet believable tales. Enough was enough, and Lucy wanted out. RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
