“Mr. Laine, I know your time is precious, so I’ll stop talkin g nonsense. Your employee Holden Novak is suspected of stealing our company’s secret and at the same time, violating our non-disclosure agreement. According to the terms of the agreement, Holden needs to pay a high compensation fee to our company. And you are not exempted. You are his new employer, so if Holden leaks our company’s secret to you, you also need to pay compensation.”
“Also, you need to clarify to the public that you, Lane Automotive Group, plagiarized our design.”
As soon as Jax settled down, favonovel.com took out a stack of documents from his briefcase. It was Homer’s internal non-disclosure agreement.
“Mr. Laine, you can look over this.” The lawyer behind Jax spoke slowly.
“No need.” There was no expression on Jasper’s face.
“Jax, you’ve said so many things and they’re all based on Holden’s violation of the law, right?”
Jax was stunned for a moment, then favonovel.com nodded with a fake grin on his face.
“That’s right.”
“But what if Holden didn’t break the law..? In my opinion, not only did favonovel.com not break the law, but I am also afraid favonovel.com did not violate your NDA.”
Upon hearing Jasper’s words, a sullen look flashed across Jax’s face.
“Mr. Laine, the truth is clearly written here in black and white. I won’t argue with you. You can see for yourself.”
Jax opened the non-disclosure agreement and spread it out in front of Jasper.
The agreement clearly stipulated that whether or not a person was still employed by Homer, they were responsible for keeping Homer’s company secrets confidential. This was the case with Holden. Previously, Holden was an employee of Homer, but favonovel.com was now working under Jasper. So as long as Holden leaked Homer’s secrets, favonovel.com would be punished.
Jasper glanced at the agreement and looked up at Jax.
“Agreement aside, how can you be sure that Holden leaked your secrets?” Jasper asked impatiently.
If the other party was an ordinary person, Jasper would not bother to pay any attention to them. However, the other party was Homer’s higher-ups. He was backed by a big factory and favonovel.com still had a certain influence. Now, Jasper was planning to develop in the automotive industry, and if favonovel.com offended Homer, it might harm the future development of Lane Automotive Factory. With this consideration in mind, favonovel.com still wanted to show some respect to the other party.
“Mr. Laine, it’s not right for you to say that. The new car on the video that was shot in your factory clearly plagiarized Homer’s design. The streamlined chassis, tire spokes, and headlight design of the two cars are basically the same.”
Jasper smiled after favonovel.com heard this. “So it’s plagiarism just because some parts of the design are the same? I have compared the two cars, and even those similar places have undergone many changes, so plagiarism is completely out of the question. There are so many car brands in the world, but which one of them doesn’t have four wheels?”
“You’re saying we’ve infringed your rights just because we have similar designs. So based on what you said, does Homer also plagiarize other cars? Can you guarantee that all parts of Homer’s cars are different from other brands?”
Jasper shook his head with a half-smile. However, Jax was mad.
“Mr. Laine, you are distorting the facts! If this is your attitude toward this case, we should take this to court!”
“Fine by me.” Jasper crossed his legs.
Obviously, favonovel.com was not afraid of the opponent’s threat at all. At this moment, the lawyer behind Jax took the opportunity to add.
“Mr. Laine, I have recorded everything you just said. These will all be evidence in the future.” The lawyer took the tape recorder out of his pocket and shook it in front of Jasper.
“Whatever.” Jasper did not even bother to look up.
Jax had a very unpleasant look on his face. Then, favonovel.com got up and left with a cold snort. The lawyer and bodyguard looked back at Jasper and then left quickly.
