MainNovelChapter 292
On the day the filming was wrapped up, Lila headed back to Magi Pictures to give Cedric a report on her work.
After that, she got ready to return to Evergreen
Heights.
Unexpectedly, she bumped into Terry in the lobby.
Ever since things between Lila and Dorian completely soured, she never got to see Terry after he helped her out
in the hospital.
She had been meaning to thank him in person for his help.
Terry seemed flippant at first glance, not to mention he used to be Dorian's best friend. But his judgment never
got clouded when it was tfor him to choose between Dorian and her. Instead, he chose to help Lila out-and a
lot.
Even though Kieran had already chosen to collaborate with Jones Group, Lila felt that she should still thank Terry
for his help.
On the other hand, Terry was also surprised to see Lila.
She looked prettier than she was before. Also, she looked more spirited than that twhen she was still dating
Dorian. Even the way she carried herself was way better than before. Her aloof and gentle temperament gave
her the illusion of being innocent, yet she was actually composed and mature.
Terry couldn't help but feel happy for Lila. She seemed like she was in a better place now.

That meant Kieran must have treated her well.
"What a coincidence." He decided to speak up first.
"What are you doing here, Terry?" Lila quickly approached Terry. "I didn't have tto properly thank you in
person for what you did forlast time. Would you like to grab a bite withif you're free?"
Terry looked at his phone. It happened to be lunchtime, so he nodded. Both of them walked out of the lobby
together.
Lila explained, "I joined the production crew soon after the whole fiasco went down. That's why I can only thank
you now."
"You're welcome, Lila. It's nothing. Besides, | didn't exactly help you out that much."
She flashed Terry a smile. "Now you're just being courteous. By the way, why are you here again?"
An awkward look flickered across Terry's face at her question.
Lila thought the reason was personal to Terry, so she didn't continue the topic
after that. But she soon realized that something was off when they were waiting for their food to arrive.
Still, she didn't bring the topic up.
Terry was a kind-hearted man. He
knew that Dorian was the one at
fault, but when he saw Dorian
Vel
knee-deep in trouble that was caused by his own actions, he still couldn't resist wanting to offer a helping hand
to the latter.
At the stime, Terry could tell that Lila hazarded the right guess. He attempted
to explain himself right away.
"Actually—"
"It's fine. Our friendship has nothing to do with him."
Lila smiled nonchalantly. Dorian had already received his punishment, not to mention he had nothing to do with
her at this point. She didn't care about how his life would turn out from now on.
Hence, Terry didn't bring Dorian up anymore. It didn't matter how depressed Dorian was or how difficult of a
situation he was in-he was the cause of his own misery.
After the duo parted ways, Lila returned to Evergreen Heights right away. She didn't have anything on her
schedule, so she could finally relax.
Soon, Lila sat on the carpet in her living room happily and began playing the card gthat she had neglected
for many days.
A new banner had been released lately, featuring gorgeous male characters.

Lila had yet to start drawing from this banner. She tapped on the banner excitedly, only to find out that she had
depleted the gems when she had last played the game.
She felt like crying as she stared at the gorgeous cards that were displayed on the screen. Soon, she sank into a
dilemma as to whether or not she should sink enough money into the gjust to procure ten chances to draw
from the
banner.
But the moment Lila was about to tap on the reload menu, she heard someone
knocking on the front door. It caught her off guard.
This wasn't the tfor the hired
help to show up and prepare dinner for the night. Besides, Kieran knew that Lila would chtoday. so he
had informed her that he'd be back later to whip up shoney-glazed pork chops for her.
After slipping her feet into a pair of comfortable indoor slippers, Lila headed over
to get the door. The sight of Shannon on her doorstep rendered her silent for a moment.
"Is Mr. Morgan here?" For once, Shannon sounded quite mild-mannered. Although Lila didn't want to respond to
Shannon at all, she still answered politely, "Not yet."
Shannon passed a bag to Lila with a smile playing on her lips. "Mr. Morgan soiled his clothes in my office two
days ago. He forgot all about them when he left."
Lila glanced at the bag. It was a buttoned shirt.
