NovelEnglishChapter 231
Dorian staggered out, and the group discussing in the rest area fell silent as soon as they saw him. However, he
didn't even glance at them, acting completely out of character, his steps unsteady as he made his way out.
It was when he had walked far enough that one of them asked, "Did he hear everything? He would've been
furious and scolded us by now. Why is he acting so strangely today?"
Another person responded, "He must really be shaken. Lila treats him so well, and the Morgan family even backs
her. But he was messing around with other women and broke her heart.
"Now she's signed with Magi Pictures and engaged to Mr. Morgan. It's like
something out of a , and look at him-he's lost his girlfriend and resources.
I wouldn't be able to take it if it were me."
The people who had been waiting to mock Lila were now laughing at Dorian instead.

Dorian stumbled outside. It was past the start of autumn, but the midday sun was still scorching, and being out
for too long made him feel as though he might melt.
However, he seemed unaffected, walking forward without hesitation. His shirt was drenched in sweat after only a
short distance.
After walking for a long time, it hit him that he had no idea where to find Lila. He didn't have her phone number
or her current address. It felt as though he no longer had any connection to her.
She had been hurt today, so she probably wouldn't go to the office. Was she still in pain?
Dorian raised his hand to cover his eyes, and the sound of his anguished sobs filled the air.
What had he done? He had actually hurt her, even though she was the one person he held most dear.
An idea struck him suddenly, and he headed to Taylor's home. He needed to beg Taylor and Camille. They were
the ones who loved Lila and him the most, and they would be the ones most willing to help them get back
together and eventually get married and have children.
They must have a way to help him win Lila back.
Meanwhile, Fletcher was also feeling uneasy. After seeing all the news today, he immediately called Lila, but
after two or three attempts, no one picked up.
Less than two hours later, the police arrived at his door.
"Mr. Brooks, someone has reported that you invited others to spread rumors about Ms. Lila Hart maliciously.
Please cwith us."
Fletcher widened his eyes. "I... | didn't. Officer, I've been wronged."
Logan, equally shaken, quickly stepped forward to inquire. "Officer, is there skind of mistake?"
The officer glanced at them. "If you've been wronged, we will give you a fair hearing, but please cwith us
and cooperate with the investigation now."
Logan furrowed his brow. They couldn't oppose the police, so he quickly reassured Fletcher. "Don't worry. I'll
contact a lawyer right away, and I'll get in touch with Lila. We'll bail you out soon."
Lila stood frozen as she listened to Nicole's words, then turned to look at Amelie. "Grandma, Aunt Nicole," she

The Morgan family had raised her for so many years. Kieran was the pride of the Morgan family, yet he
unexpectedly took on a marriage engagement because of her.
"Silly child, what are you saying?" Amelie interrupted her, feigning displeasure.
"You're part of the Morgan family. We're family. There's no need for apologies. This marriage is something Kieran
agreed to..."
"Ahem..." Nicole suddenly coughed several times, cutting off Amelie's words. "Lita; both your grandparents and |
think this marriage is great. It's like making the family ties ever stronger, but we also want to hear your opinion.
This is your life's big decision."
Lila turned and glanced at Kieran, who was standing quietly nearby. She pursed
her lips slightly while lost in thought.
Kieran had only mentioned the engagement today. If she wasn't willing, the elders of the Morgan family would
surely respect her choice and clarify things with the media. At that point, he would be embarrassed.
