MainNovelChapter 109
In the brightly lit president's office of Morgan Group, Cole stood across from the desk, cold sweat dripping as he
listened to the live stream of Dorian and the host's conversation.
The man sitting before him had deep, penetrating eyes fixed on the screen, which displayed a young woman's
exquisite face. She raised her gaze to the camera, almost like locking eyes with Kieran through the screen.
"M-Mr. Morgan, should | call Leonard and have him stop the live stream?"
A faint, cold laugh escaped Kieran's throat. His movements were relaxed yet elegant.
"Spread the word. Any company that collaborates with Dorian or renews contracts with him will no longer be
working with Morgan Group."
Cole didn't hesitate for a moment and quickly responded, "Understood. I'll handle it right away."
Dorian brought this upon himself by provoking the wrong person. His career in the entertainment industry was
about to end.
Dorian's gaze swept subtly over Jamie and Teddy off-camera, silently warning Lila. If she dared to say anything
that left him in an embarrassing position, those two newcomers would be the ones to pay the price.

Lila's eyes narrowed slightly in response to his despicable behavior. If she had saved his dignity now in front of
the camera and later rejected him again, she would have been portrayed as unreasonable.
The public would see her as petty, attention-seeking, ungrateful... Every label would be firmly attached to her.
The camera turned to her, the lights following suit. Her exposed arms, highlighted by the black fabric of her
dress, appeared even more fair and luminous.
Lila stood there quietly, her face devoid of unnecessary emotion. Her features were clean and sharp, her
expression as cool and ethereal as the moonlight on this cold night.
The fans watching the live stream were momentarily struck by her beauty. The flood of comments paused for an
instant, only to surge forward again.
"Now | get why Dorian is so devoted! If my partner looked like this, I'd slap myself first in an argument!"
"Lila's been by his side for years. As a hardcore fan, this is the first tI've seen her face so clearly. No wonder
he kept her hidden so well."
"Not fair, Dorian! You're living the dream, and we don't even get to have a look at her!"
"She's like an angel sent by the heavens! And me? What am | even?"
"We're just unlucky, that's what."
"She's gorgeous, but | don't want Dorian dating. Still, seeing his red, teary eyes that day, | felt so bad for him!"
"Ms. Hart, please forgive Dorian. I'll create a hashtag for you two!"
The host glanced at the live stream, which showed no signs of losing momentum and couldn't help but marvel at
it. As expected of Dorian, he was popular and skilled. If any other male celebrity revealed their relationship, they
would be getting roasted by now.
Lila merely looked up at Dorian without saying a word. The host signaled the cameraman to get a shot of them
exchanging glances, aiming to create buzz around their supposed romance.
They looked at each other from a distance, and the fans excitedly began to
scream.
"This is fate! It's destiny!"
After a brief pause, the host asked, "Ms. Hart, many people online support your relationship with Mr. Blake and
are curious-when do you plan to forgive him?"

The camera was no longer on Dorian, but his gaze carried a warning as he looked at Lila.
Zara had suggested teaching Lila a lesson the other day, but he couldn't bear to let her suffer anymore. After
considering his options, he decided that pressuring her in front of the media was the best move.
He hadn't fully figured out how to execute it until Teddy's stupidity handed him the perfect opportunity.
Dorian noticed her delicate hand at her side, subtly clenching into a fist, and thought, "Lila, this is your
punishment for disobedience. I've already treated you so well-don't disappointany further."
Off-camera, Jamie and Teddy shook their heads at Lila, signaling her not to give in to Dorian's threats.
Lila withdrew her gaze from Dorian, turning to the camera with a faint smile.
His tense posture eased when he saw her reaction. It seemed she knew what to
do.
He was already prepared to embrace her when she uttered the words about wanting to be with him again.
It was not only because he wanted to show everyone his deep affection but also because, truthfully, he missed
her gentle hugs and the familiar scent she carried.
As Jamie and Teddy tried to step forward to intervene, Lila shook her head slightly, signaling them to stay put.
