Chapter 831 -831: No Evidence to Confirm Death
Before Carter could figure it out, Boyd Drew couldnât help but say, âDuring the pre-sale of the perfume, the Drew Corporation has always been leading, surpassing the second-place Mamet Corporation by 100,000 bottles.â
Thoughtfully, Carter nodded, âIn that case, why does Mr. Drew look so disappointed?â
Upon hearing that, Drew glanced at Caleb not far away, suppressing his anger and sadly said, âBut when the pre-sale channel was about to close, all the perfumes got taken down.â
âWhy?â Carter asked.
With everyoneâs gaze on Caleb subconsciously, Drew sighed, âBecause someone sued the Drew Corporation for copyright infringement. It was our familyâs mistake, but we heard that you are a friend of Mr. Cold Night, so you should be informed.â
At the sound of this, Carter was instantly confused, but since Drew had said that, she couldnât not give him face and could only nod, âPlease go on, Mr. Drew.â
...
Upon hearing this, Vivian Drew couldnât wait to mock, âCaleb, Mrs. Carter has already arrived, will you still insist on not withdrawing the lawsuit?â
Caleb didnât even lift an eyelid.
At this moment, Drew approached Mrs. Carter and spoke respectfully, âMrs. Carter, itâs an honor to have you attend the Drew familyâs annual party. Unfortunately, there have been some problems with this collaboration. At the last moment of the pre-sale channel closing, Drew Corporationâs new perfume products were all removed from the shelves, and the person who sued the Drew Corporation for copyright infringement is Caleb.â
âCaleb sued the Drew Corporation for infringement on behalf of Cold Night. To exacerbate the adverse effects, he forced the removal of all perfumes at the last moment before the pre-sale ended; simultaneously, the Mamet Corporation took first place.â
âHe used such despicable means to frame the Drew family for his own gain, damaging our reputation and breaking the balance of the entire business world. If becoming the wealthiest depended on such methods, Iâd rather not!â
These words stirred up the calm banquet hall, and everyone showed their disdain.
Satisfied, Sir Drew nodded and then sighed, âCaleb, itâs not a big deal for you brothers to compete with each other, but why do you have to play tricks behind the scenes and rely on suing others to win the sales championship? Itâs ultimately too despicable, and your reputation will suffer. Who will be willing to do business with you in the future?â
Smugly, Vivian Drew said, âWithdraw your suit now, or you will suffer the consequences!â
After listening to everyoneâs words, Carterâs expression was subtle, ââŠâ
What on earth were the Drew family talking about? Why couldnât she understand?
âMr. Mamet sued the Drew Corporation for infringement?â
A long time later, Carter asked bewilderedly, âIs it because the Drew Corporation used Mr. Cold Nightâs work without authorization that they got sued?â
Caleb gave a faint cold smile in the corner of his mouth; he never expected that Carter would attend the annual party. However, her arrival would make things even simpler.
Drew looked helpless. In his gentle voice filled with unwillingness, he said, âFirst of all, we did not infringe on any copyrights, and secondly, Caleb is not Cold Night. If we, the Drew Corporation, truly infringed on any copyrights, it should be Mr. Cold Night who sued us. It seems that Mr. Mamet does not have this right.â
âIsnât it a bit too much for Mr. Mamet to impersonate Cold Night and sue us?â
At this point, Drew sighed as if he was a poor and helpless honest man, while Caleb was a devious and selfish schemer.
If Mr. Cold Night sued me, I have no excuse, but he wouldnât do that. Mrs. Carter, what do you think?â
After hearing Drewâs words, Carter widened her eyes, looking at Drew, then at Caleb, and asked with a subtle expression, âHas Mr. Drew truly obtained authorization from Cold Night?â
Confidently, Drew said, âOf course, I have already obtained Mr. Cold Nightâs authorization. I donât know where Mr. Caleb Mamet heard the rumor that I didnât have authorization. He rashly sued the Drew Corporation for his own benefit. This behavior is despicable.â
âI wish Mr. Cold Night could appear to clear my name, but sadly thatâs impossible.â
Drew looked disappointed, âI did some investigation, and Mr. Cold Night has already passed awayâŠâ
Since Cold Night had died and had no relatives, who had the right to sue the Drew Corporation for copyright infringement?
Even if they didnât have a written authorization, he could still claim Cold Night had given verbal authorization in the past. After all, the dead canât testify, and nobody could verify the claim. Even if Caleb intended to sue him, there was no evidence.
At this thought, Drew smirked confidently. This time, he had won for good.
