Chapter 76 A Joke
“Why not?” Vivian asked, puzzled..
“I didn’t copyright this piece of music, and besides, it’s been subtly modified. If we were to go to court, it would be hard to establish whether it was plagiarized or not. Also, don’t forget about Nathaniel, who is backing her. Nathaniel won’t let her lose a lawsuit.”
Over the years, Stella had acted without any restraint. There were those who had attempted to sue her, but all had failed in their endeavors.
The entire legal department of Rainsworth Group was at Stella’s service.
Moreover, if Cecilia were to engage in a lawsuit, it would be an international one, making it particularly challenging.
“So, are we just going to let her off the hook?”
Cecilia stepped onto the balcony and gazed at the vast scenery stretching out before her. Her red lips parted slightly as she said, “We’re not letting her off the hook! It’s just that we have to wait until we have sufficient evidence, preferably something that can deliver a fatal blow.”
She was never the type to compromise easily, but she also knew that she couldn’t be reckless.
After hearing that, all Vivian could do was sigh. “All right, I’ll start gathering evidence.”
“Okay. This is going to add to your workload again.”
“No worries, it’s been a while since I’ve been involved in a legal dispute,” Vivian said with a laugh.
Vivian knew that it was always hardest on Cecilia because the fruits of her labor were taken away by someone else.
After Vivian finished her phone call inside the room, Jonathan knocked on the door. “Ms. Kennedy, did you say someone stole Mommy’s song?”
Vivian hadn’t expected Jonathan to wake up so early, so she didn’t hide anything from him.
“Yeah, it’s that shameless A–list celebrity, Stella! She’s nothing more than a vixen and a mistress. She was the one who ruined your mother’s relationship with…”
As Vivian spoke, her excitement grew, almost revealing that Nathaniel was Jonathan’s father.
Before she could finish her sentence, Jonathan interrupted her.
“Ms. Kennedy, Mommy told me that we shouldn’t use bad language. Besides, I’m just a kid. I don’t understand what ‘mistress‘ means…”
Are you sure you don’t know the meaning?
said in his usual manner, “Ms. Kennedy, if you want to achieve great things, you must be steady.”
You claim you don’t understand, but I see you understand better than anyone else.
“Focus on your studies and don’t bother lecturing me. I’ve had more life experiences than you.”
After seeing Jonathan off in the car, Vivian immediately headed to the Kennedy family’s branch company to work. Meanwhile, she had someone investigate the evidence of Stella’s plagiarism.
Cecilia did not let the matter rest either.
First, she called her assistant, instructing her to inform Central Media about the song plagiarism issue on behalf of the company.
Subsequently, she instructed her assistant to retain the chat logs from both sides as evidence.
Stella’s latest song, “Ray of Light in the Dark” swiftly topped the charts on major music platforms, catapulting her into the trending topics.
Numerous netizens wrote comments about it.
Who said Stella has run out of talent? This must be a slap in the face to them!
I’m not a fan of Stella, but I really like this particular song,
This song sounds so melancholy…
Don’t you know the story behind this song? It’s a love confession written by Stella after waiting for Nathaniel for four years. I genuinely feel for Stella because she waited for Mr. Rainsworth for so many years. Now that his ex–wife has passed away, she finally got what she wished for.
In less than a day, the comments under the song had reached over a million.
They were unaware that Cecilia had composed the music during the three years of her marriage to Nathaniel. It was also the time when she was suffering from severe depression.
She wrote it for Nathaniel after their marriage, but she never had the chance to let him listen to it.
Now that it became Stella’s song for Nathaniel, everything seemed like a joke…
Central Media was abuzz that day because they were throwing a celebration for Stella.
