Lila put down her cup of water and looked at Fletcher standing before her, waiting for him to speak. He was quite
good-looking—certainly above average in the
entertainment industry.
She had watched the he was in. Though he was young-about the sage as Teddy—their acting skills
were clearly different. His performance was more polished, likely due to his professional training.
He looked at her, clearly hesitant. "Ms. Hart, do you remember me?"
For a moment, Lila appeared confused.
She wasn't one to remember everyone she met, but she usually had simpression of people she had
interacted with in the industry, especially someone she had actually met before.
She glanced up slightly, studying his face again. "Have we met?"

"Yes." He nodded. "Before | becfamous, | played a small role. Back then, you were still with... Nexus
Entertainment. The female lead in the bullied me, and you spoke up for me."
She tried to recall, but she couldn't place it. She had been in the industry for five years and witnessed many
instances where young actors were bullied. She always helped when she could, but there were so many cases
that it was hard to remember each one.
Fletcher's face beca little awkward when he noticed that she couldn't recall. But Lila could tell that his
embarrassment wasn't because she had forgotten him. "If there's something you need, just say it. If | can help, |
will" she started.
"I'm not asking for help," he said, looking even more embarrassed. "I just wanted to ask if this audition will really
be as fair as Joyce Group mentioned?"
His ears turned red as he spoke.
She immediately understood. All his earlier comments weren't an attempt to network but rather an opening for
him to ask his real question without sounding too blunt.
Over the past six months, his fans had cost him several opportunities. If he didn't return to work soon, his career
would stagnate.
"I'm not trying to use you to get ahead," he continued.
Lila smiled lightly, her tone softening "Of course, it will be fair. Ms. Joyce and Mr. Lane are personally overseeing
things. No
one will dare to be biased. Just
focus on doing your best."
As soon as she finished speaking, she could see him visibly relax. He gave a
slight bow. "Thank you. I'll leave you to your work now."
Fletcher quickly turned and walked away, afraid of bothering her any longer.

Lila rubbed her face. Did she look that intimidating? Why did he seem so startled?
Meanwhile, Amelia looked at Vince curiously. "Why did you callall of a sudden? Did something happen?"
"No, it's not about the project." Vince paused, trying to figure out how to broach the subject. "You really don't
know about the past between Lila and Dorian?"
"Huh? | know. They used to work at the scompany. They're just acquaintances. Why?"
He fell silent, wondering how someone as sharp as her could be so oblivious. As the only daughter of the Joyce
Group, wasn't she taught to get to know people better before becoming friends?
Getting involved with someone with ulterior motives could cause trouble for both her and the entire Joyce Group.
"Didn't you follow the entertainment news? And if you want to be friends with Dorian, shouldn't you first
understand more about him?"
Vince felt as though he was taking on the role of a father. If he had a daughter, he certainly wouldn't det her be
so careless and unprepared about the people she befriended.
"His acting was good, and he's good-looking, that's why 1—"
