Jamie: "What? Do you still want to help her? Can you even walk?"
Teddy: "Hey..."
Jamie: "@Lila you should stay away from the filming location for now. Don't let this ruin your mood."
Lila pressed her lips together, feeling more certain that leaving Dorian was the right decision. Otherwise, she'd
be an absolute joke by now. Still, she had done nothing wrong, and had no reason to hide.
After finishing her tasks that afternoon, she followed her original plan and drove to meet Jamie. As she stepped
out of the car, she saw Darcy getting out of a cab.
Lila remarked to herself that Darcy shouldn't have been so stubborn by ignoring Jamie's advice to stay away.
Darcy hadn't changed her usual over-the-top look, sticking to her exaggerated style of makeup. Her heavy
eyeliner stretched nearly to her temples, with bright eyeshadow shimmering enough to make anyone's head

The moment Darcy spotted Lila, she sneered. Her bright scarlet lips twisted in disdain. "Lila, what a small world.
You framed my cousin for cheating and had people curse Zara as a homewrecker. What exactly are you after?"
Lila suddenly thought that, if this were a fairy tale, Darcy would have swallowed her whole by now. Still, it was
disgusting. Lila frowned slightly, her expression calm. Though her gaze deepened, she concealed her inner
thoughts.
Darcy took Lila's silence as a sign of guilty conscience and mocked her even
more.
"You're just jealous that my cousin and Zara get along so well. Now that you can't get back together with him,
you're lashing out to ruin them, aren't you? I'll expose that ugly face of yours and show everyone who the real
homewrecker is!"
She took out her phone and started recording Lila. "Did you know? Back in high school, my cousin said he liked
Zara."
Lila's expression shifted slightly. Dorian had once said he liked Zara? She wasn't concerned about past
relationships. But since they once dated, shouldn't they at least respect each other?
There was no question that Dorian had loved her. But while they were together, had he been holding a place for
someone else in his heart? Did Zara's return from abroad spark his eagerness to care for her?
Before she could process this, Darcy interrupted her thoughts, sneering. "You took advantage of Zara being
abroad to seduce my cousin. You're the real homewrecker!"
"Now that Zara is back, you refuse to step aside. Not only have you made her suffer for two years, but you have
the audacity to call her the mistress. Have you no shame?"
"You need to clear this up right now. Tell everyone you broke up with my cousin ages ago and that Zara is not a
mistress!"
Lila couldn't understand how Darcy could make such absurd statements with such conviction. She stepped back,
creating distance between them, her gaze cool.

"Go hand get ssleep. You can have anything you want in your dreams," said Lila.
As she turned to leave, Darcy grabbed her and shouted, "You're not going anywhere! Explain yourself! Are you
too guilty to speak up? I'll expose how vile you are. Dorian would never want you!"
Lila felt a surge of irritation and was about to push Darcy away when she heard Dorian's loud voice approaching
her from behind. "Darcy, let go!"
Zara's sickly sweet voice followed. "Ms. Blake, please let go of Lila. We can talk this over calmly."
Dorian glanced at Zara in confusion. Even though her reputation had taken a hit and she'd lost her lead role, she
still defended Lila?
"Zara, you're simply too kind and innocent. You're still speaking up for her, but she's the reason you lost your job
in the first place," said Darcy.
"Apologize to Zara right now!" Darcy somehow built up more strength and pulled Lila forward, dragging her two
steps closer to Zara to force her into an apology.
