Before Vince could ask more, Dorian had already approached.
"Mr. Lane." As Lila had predicted, he spoke first, addressing Vince. He continued, "May | have a word with you in
private?"
The two were of similar height, and Vince met his gaze without showing any emotion. Having managed Lane
Group for many years, he seemed gentle but
was far from lacking in temper.
Lucas personally mentored him, and the two shared a striking resemblance and had similar personalities.
He spoke coolly, "If it's nothing urgent, we can talk here."
The three people sitting nearby looked up at them, swatching curiously while swere clearly displeased.

She didn't cin using his name, did she? Was she so desperate to seduce someone? But as he looked up at
Vince, he quickly suppressed that smirk.
"It's about a previous collaboration between Lane Group and my team. This matter might be unsuitable for
outsiders, so | would appreciate it if we could step aside."
When Vince's gaze briefly shifted toward Lila, Dorian's irritation deepened. He loosened his tie, feeling a bit more
comfortable.
Vince gave a half-smile, replying, "Alright. Let's go over there."
Once the two walked away, Jamie asked, "Ms. Hart, how did you know he was here to speak with Vince?"
"When | left Dorian's team, they were working on a film project with Lane Group, but this project was something |
negotiated. The person in charge at Lane Group insisted on working only with me."
Jamie thought for a moment. "So, he's here to ask Vince to replace you?"
"Is this project that important to him?" Teddy asked, confused.
With his aloof attitude, would he really lower himself to beg?
Upon hearing his words, Lila smiled. "It's very important."
This project was a key step in his plan to break free from the control of Nexus Entertainment. That was why he
went through so many obstacles to show up here. Before coming here, he must have considered many ways to
approach this.
Lila glanced toward Vince, and her eyes met Dorian's for a brief moment. She casually averted her gaze and
looked at Vince.
Her dismissive attitude stirred Dorian's frustration. She was really good at pretending!
Vince seemed to sense something and turned his head, offering Lila a faint smile.

Dorian's perfectly composed expression nearly cracked. How dare she flirt with another man in front of him?
They exchanged a few words, but they couldn't hear the conversation since Lila and the others were standing far
away.
From Dorian's expression, it seemed they hadn't reached an agreement.
After their talk, Dorian stood still momentarily, watching Vince approach Lila and the others. He spoke to them
softly before walking away.
Lila didn't want to speak to Dorian any longer, so she led the others to mingle with other guests. For them, the
goal of this gala was to meet potential investors and look for good scripts.
Given Vince's attitude earlier, people at the event were now more curious about them.
After introducing themselves, everyone was friendly and open.
Lila had a low tolerance for alcohol, and after a few glasses of sweet wine, she
felt a little dizzy. She told Jamie and Teddy to continue chatting and went to the side to rest by herself.
