MainNovelChapter 122
"You're not completely useless after all," Zara said.
Leyla moved her eyes slightly. "Now that Lila knows I hold a grudge against her, she'll be the first to suspect me
if she sees these videos. You get someone to do this, and once it's done, I'll want 500 thousand."
Zara gave her a suspicious glance, thought for a moment, and then nodded.
Seeing that she agreed, Leyla didn't say anything more and left with a stern face. Once she had walked far
enough, she turned back for a glance.
She was leaving this task to Zara. It wouldn't be linked to her even if Lila traced it back to the source.
She had seen Lila getting into a luxury car today. It was probably her backer. If that person didn't help Lila, it
would be perfect for her to strike a fatal blow.
But if the backer intervened, even if Lila weren't brought down, it would still cause her a lot of trouble.

His face darkened after hearing that Lila's issue had been resolved smoothly.
"Where is she now?"
Oliver hesitated before answering. "A man cand picked her up just now." "A man?" Dorian's expression went
from dark to grim. "What did he look like?"
"| didn't see clearly." Oliver was nervous.
"What car did he drive?" Even though Dorian had someone in mind, he still couldn't help but ask to confirm.
"It was a black Maybach."
Dorian clenched his fist so tightly that his knuckles cracked.
Lila had been getting closer to Noah recently. He was sure that she didn't buy the camera herself. Was it a gift
from Noah?
His face darkened. She and Noah hadn't just gotten close recently-they had always been close.
Lila avoided the others from the crew, and Kieran, understanding her intention, also headed toward a quieter
area with fewer people.
"Uncle Kieran." In the secluded spot, her eyes were bright like stars. Her voice was sweet and crisp—the kind
that could easily captivate someone.
Kieran naturally took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from her cheek.
The intimate gesture made Lila a little uncomfortable. She wanted to pull away, but seeing that his expression
showed no sign of awkwardness, she felt that maybe it was just her being too sensitive.
"Ran into trouble?" His voice was deep and melodious, like the soothing notes of a serene melody.
She knew that he would know even if she didn't tell him. Unable to hide any longer, she lowered her head, her
eyes filled with sadness. "The camera you gavefor the New Year got damaged."

"Was it intentional?"
She nodded, then added, "I wanted to leave a good impression on Leonard, so when they offered to pay for it, |
didn't push it further. Sorry, Uncle Kieran." Her voice was soft and frail, full of disappointment.
"Since it was a gift from me, you can decide what happens to it. There's no need to apologize," he said gently,
his expression warm. "But for now, give it to Cole. Later, he'll take it abroad for repairs."
Cole stepped forward to take the camera and also offered words of comfort. "Don't worry, Ms. Hart. After a few
days, it'll be as good as new."
"Those who have been causing you trouble won't be a bother anymore," Kieran thought.
After the meal, he took her back and then left.
Lila watched his car disappear in the distance, feeling happy that he had cto eat with her, but she also felt it
had taken up too much of his time. Maybe she should tell him not to do this again.
Before Lila could finish her thought, the phone rang, interrupting her.
"Ms. Hart, something's happened!" Before she could say anything, Jamie's anxious voice cthrough the line.
