Dorian frowned but didn't scold Darcy this time. Instead, he scrutinized Lila.
When had she becso vain?
Jamie, who had always stood by Lila's side, also hesitated.
Lila shook her head and said, "I really don't know how much it costs, but it's not that important to me. | can help
you find the price if you care that much."
Her nonchalant attitude nearly sent Darcy into a rage. "You, you..."
After stammering for a while, she was so angry that she couldn't even complete a sentence.
"I'm hungry, so let's go eat first," Lila said as she pressed the car key.
The car she had just patted beeped in response.
The expressions of the others changed.

Jamie finally spoke up after a while. "Ms. Hart, are you like a secret millionaire or something?"
Lila opened the car door with a radiant smile, illuminating the space around her. "Are we still going for spicy
dishes?"
"Of course!" Jamie responded enthusiastically, her mood lifting like a happy puppy.
She also pulled Teddy along. "Get in the car quickly. Don't delay my meal time!" With the car door shutting
behind them, they drove off.
The three left behind exchanged meaningful glances, their expressions a mix of surprise and intrigue.
"How could Lila afford such a nice car? Has she hooked up with srich guy?" Darcy was still a bit dazed.
Her words suddenly reminded Dorian of what his assistant had mentioned about seeing Lila get out of a
Maybach.
He clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking ominously under the pressure.
Zara pressed her lips together. "No, that shouldn't be the case. Lila isn't that kind of person. She must have just
made smoney recently and bought a car for convenience."
While it seemed like she was defending her, the hesitation in her tone couldn't help but raise suspicions.
Dorian didn't notice her tone, but he did catch the mention of making money, which darkened his expression
further.
After all, no one knew better than him whether Lila had money over the years.
The money they earned barely covered their expenses in the first three years. While stars made a lot, their
spending was even greater. They had to buy their own gowns and spend money to build connections without
sponsors.
Only after he beca leading actor did they begin to earn sdecent income. Lila had not taken a single
cent of his earnings to help him as she claimed.
Instead, she used the money she earned from her photography and directing for a small web series to support
him.
It could be said that Lila hadn't saved a single penny while she was with him.
After just a month apart, how could she afford a two-million-dollar car?

Dorian could think of no other possibility than that she had found herself a wealthy benefactor.
Was she willing to degrade herself like this instead of just admitting her mistake to him?
Lila should know very well that he would forgive her as long as she acknowledged her fault.
Jamie sat in the passenger seat, gripping the seatbelt tightly until her palm began to sweat.
She wanted to speak but kept holding back.
Because Lila had repeatedly helped her, she looked at her favorably, and that affection continued to grow.
"Just say what you want to," Lila said, fearing that the tension might push Jamie over the edge.
"This car... it's really expensive."
Her words were quite tactful.
Lila burst out laughing. Her brows lifted in a bright smile. Her eyes sparkled, the little peach blossoms at the
corners of her eyes slowly blooming, enticing those who looked upon her.
Jamie momentarily lost herself in those enchanting eyes, staring blankly, unable to look away.
"Don't worry, it's from a legitimate source. | haven't sold myself."
