a simple announcement for the two newcomers? while pondering this, she called a colleague with whom she was on good terms.
“Sorry, Lila, but I’m tied up. You have to figure this one out yourself.”
Lita, not suspecting anything, reached out to another contact.
“Sorry, Ms Hart, but someone else has already been assigned to this event.”
She sensed the pattem as she continued to make calls, each ending with more refusals. She then looked for acquaintances from other companies but was rejected, Staring at her black-
scerned phone, the suddenly laughed. Dorian hadn’t made their relationship public yet, but he had already blocked her path

Lila’s lips curled into a mischievous smile. She wouldn’t give it easily! She would carve out her own path?
The next day, Lila told Billy about her
plans to film She figured since ske was working with Taylor alwa’t taking any resources from the company, it would be easy to explain to Durin
Billy was thrilled and agreed without hesitation. The only downside was that the two newcomers he arranged for her were almost ready to stact filming. If not, they could have audajoned for this film, too
Headed his chini confusion Dorian had previously stated that Lila’s matters should be funded strictly and no help should be given so why was he still allowing her to work with Taylor?
It didn’t make sense, it seemed like a game between young lovers.
When Lila arrived on set the next day, she unexpectedly tan to
someone familiar. Ethan glanced over her shoulder and noticed Kieran’s black Maybach turning
around nearby.
He recognized her as she stepped out of the butyrat
“Ms. Hart, what brings you here? Are you looking for Dorian” he asked casually
She frowned slightly, knowing if Ethan was here, Dorian was undoubtedly
She wasn’t care whether it was bad luck or Taylor’s influence. She looked
puzzled as she furrowed her brons.
As she pondered this, she recalled her clear stance when she met Taylor and Camille the
other day. Why were they arranged to be in the same production?
She even thought Camille should have made her stance clear to Dorian when he int them that day.
She replied flatly. “I’m here for work They’re waiting for me. See you later.”
Erhan didn’t dwell on it and hurried off to find Dorian..
“Dorian! Dorian”
Dorian looked up, his expression darkening. Ethan quickly suppressed his nervousness. “I just saw Ms. Hart. She’s here on set.” Dorianturned his head to glance outside and thought, “so, she followed me here? Looks like she’s scared and wants to apologize.”
Why didn’t she come over?” His brow slightly relaxed, but the irritation remained in his voice.
“She said she was here for work I didn’t have time to ask her much, but I saw her get out of a luxury car.
“Didn’t she say she was an orphan? How could she afford one? It was a business-
type Maybach. What’s going on?”
Ethan rambled on, utterly oblivious to the darkening expression on Donian’s face.
“Are you bored?”
Ethan immediately tell silent. He watched as Dorian got up angrily and walked outside. He looked like he was going to settle a score with someone.
Knowing that Lila had arrived, Taylor had someone bring her over,
That day, she wore a beige cotton long-sleeve top embroidered with a branch of leaves paired with light blue wide-
leg pants. Overall, she looked elegant and clean.
“Lala, come here! Let me introduce you to several of your senior predecessors!” Taylor, looking surprisingly formal in his
dark-colored suit, seemed net
even
more amiable given his rotund
figure.
