There's nothing mature about violating contract law. It feels like fraudulent misrepresentation to me. Key aspects of fraudulent misrepresentation[0]:

1) a representation was made

2) the representation was false

3) that when made, the defendant knew that the representation was false or that the defendant made the statement recklessly without knowledge of its truth

4) that the fraudulent misrepresentation was made with the intention that the plaintiff rely on it

5) that the plaintiff did rely on the fraudulent misrepresentation

6) that the plaintiff suffered harm as a result of the fraudulent misrepresentation

I don’t think Will committed fraudulent misrepresentation, if that could even apply or if this somehow caused harm. Either way, who said violating contract law was immature? Only you. Why suggest I did? What motive do you have here?
