Chapter 238
"I'm not hungry." Amelia shook her head. "But do you know that the police arrested Fletcher?"
"Yes, when the Joyce Group contactedto find a replacement for the role, they toldabout it."
Amelia sighed. She didn't notice the brief disappointment in Lila's eyes.
Lila wanted to help Fletcher deal with his radical fanbase, but he had already sabotaged everything before the
plans could begin. The day before, Fletcher's agent had contacted her, saying Fletcher was in detention and
wanted to meet with her.
She refused immediately. She never sympathized with people who tried to step on others to climb higher.
The world might have been tough, but ethics and morals kept us human. That was why she despised Dorian so
much. He would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. Eventually, he would have to pay the price for his actions.
After hanging up, Fletcher's agent sent her a long message. Basically, Fletcher claimed his emotions had blinded
him, but he never actually intended to hurt her. He didn't know anything about the photos or the fans’
troublemaking.

Lila believed the last part, but that was all. He wasn't the mastermind, but he was still an accomplice.
Seeing Lila suddenly fall silent, Amelia thought she was upset and tried to comfort her. "This person has no
conscience. If it weren't for you insisting on taking him in, | wouldn't have kept him, and you wouldn't have
gotten hurt.
"Ultimately, it's my fault for not thinking things through."
She took the blon herself and then frowned. "Do you know that Dorian has been looking for you these past
two days? He couldn't reach you, so he called me."
Amelia's gaze was fixed on Lila, but she didn't see any change in her expression.
Lila's smile remained faint and calm.
"I didn't know he was looking for me," Lila replied, her tone revealing no hint of emotion. "Just ignore him. Don't
let him cause you any trouble."
Amelia nodded. Seeing that Lila no longer cared about Dorian, she switched the topic and started introducing the
replacement for Fletcher.
"He's good looking, doesn't cfrom any powerful background, but he's hard-working. Now that | think about
it, he kind of remindsof Teddy, though in terms of looks, he's not quite as good-looking as Teddy."
Lila didn't feel as bored driving, with Amelia rambling about all sorts of things. By the latter half of the trip,
Amelia's voice had quieted considerably, and eventually, there was no more talking.
Lila glanced over and saw that Amelia had fallen asleep. Her mouth moved as if she was mumbling something in
her sleep.
Lila chuckled, her eyes full of tenderness, even with a hint of affection.
The two-hour drive passed quickly. When Amelia woke up, they had just arrived at their destination. She
stretched lazily before getting out of the car.
As she looked up, she froze. "He... he... he..."
Lila followed her gaze and frowned slightly. The man in a suit, though meticulously dressed, still had a haggard
look on his face.
It was Dorian. After not seeing him for stime, he lost much weight.

Dorian immediately walked toward Lila after spotting her.
Amelia hurriedly circled the car and stepped in front of Lila.
"I didn't tell him anything. He asked me, but | didn't say a word!"
Lila knew that Amelia hadn't said anything. The crew had announced the filming and posted updates on the
official Twitter account. Since he was familiar with the entertainment industry, Dorian naturally knew where to
find her.
The day before, Lila had received a call from Camille, who warned her to be careful if she encountered Dorian.
Although Camille didn't explain why, Lila could guess that Dorian had approached them after seeing the media
reports about her public image turnaround and the
engagement news with Kieran.
It was clear that Dorian had gone to Camille. Was he asking for help in convincing
her to return?
Lila sneered.
Dorian had reached her. "Lila, why didn't you ever tellthat you're the adopted daughter of the Morgan
family?"
