Lila looked at the three pairs of eyes before her, each filled with curiosity and an almost insatiable thirst for
answers.
She rolled her eyes. "I know Noah, then | met... Mr. Kieran. What's so strange about that?"
Amelia shook her head. Her blond hair gleamed under the light, appearing even more lustrous.
Despite her mature looks, she spoke like a kid. "That's not it. You're acting strange. And there are rumors that
the Morgan family adopted you. Is that true?"
Teddy was surprised. "I didn't hear that news."
"You're just too slow," Jamie chimed in.
Lila walked over, giving each of them a light tap on the forehead. She was unfazed. She was still Lila, whether as

her identity.
She took out three invitation cards from her bag and handed one to each of them. "This savesa trip."
"What's this?" Teddy asked as he opened the card, then suddenly gasped in surprise. The two next to him
immediately clutched their chests, barely holding it together.
"Sorry, sorry," he quickly apologized. "I didn't mean to. It's just... this, this is Lila's birthday banquet, and the
Morgan family is hosting it.
"| can't believe | actually got an invitation from the Morgan family! I'll be bragging about this for half a year!"
Jamie knocked him on the head. "Get a grip. Focus on your acting first."
She then glanced at Lila, her lips moving slightly, but ultimately, she didn't say anything. The three didn't have
much to do in the morning, and only Lila had a few documents to handle. So they sat nearby, playing around,
waiting for her to finish so they could go out for lunch together.
While Amelia and Teddy stepped out, Jamie hesitated before sitting across from Lila.
The weather was beautiful today. The sunlight streaming through the windows cast a gentle glow on the floor,
making the whole room feel brighter.
Lila set the things in her hands down and looked at the shy girl across from her.
Their gazes met, and Jamie was the first to speak. "Lila, is it true about you and Mr. Morgan's marriage?"
Her delicate fingers paled as she squeezed the pen in her hand. She didn't know how to answer this question for
a moment.
The truth was, the engagement might be canceled once the buzz died down, or they could get married and then
get a divorce after the attention faded.
Not to mention how complicated the explanation would be, but from an average person's point of view, they
probably wouldn't approve of a friend treating their marriage like a game.
She thought for a while and decided not to tell the truth. She didn't want to cause Jamie unnecessary worry.

Her voice was gentle, but Jamie felt a twinge of sadness in her heart. only Vince had cback sooner, would he
have been able to play the hero and save the day?
Lila would have been her sister-in-law if that happened.
She lowered her gaze, and after a long while, sighed deeply. "Well then, I'll congratulate you in advance. I'll
definitely get you a big gift when the tcomes."
The next day, all the actors and crew members of the film went to the shooting location. Amelia didn't need to
go, but she was free and had never seen a film set before, so she insisted that Lila take her along.
The company arranged separate cars for Jamie and Teddy, with Ethan accompanying them.
Meanwhile, Lila was driving, with Amelia sitting in the passenger seat.
"There are snacks there. If you're bored, you can have some."
Lila began to feel uneasy from Amelia's constant staring as if she were a walking gossip material in Amelia's
eyes.
