There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. Then, Wayne Erlington responded with annoyance, "What's wrong with you? I've already told you that your comic doesn't meet our requirements. "Gosh, what's the point of investing in a plagiarized comic? After hearing that, Lucy furrowed her eyebrows.
