To expand upon what Szymon from DisplayLink has said...

DisplayLink technology is a combination of hardware and software. If the product you are using does not have DisplayLink hardware inside of it, then the DisplayLink software will not work.

The WavLink docking station you are using has a DisplayPort Multi-Stream Transport (also known as DP MST) hub inside of it. Note I said, 'DisplayPort' not 'DisplayLink'.

We know it has this technology inside of it because WavLink includes the word 'MST' in the title of the product.

Mac systems do NOT support DP MST, which is why your displays are mirrored. If you want to add more than one single external display to your Mac, you will need to use a product based on DisplayLink technology.
