Chapter 329 Kieran's heavy mood from the day suddenly lightened with one simple question from Lila. He lowered his gaze, his eyes resting on her soft, pinkish face. His puzzled expression only made him more captivating.
"The tailor knows my size," he said with amusement.
Lila froze for a moment, then her ears turned red. She quickly let go of him, feeling a wave of regret. What was she thinking? Kieran's clothes were mostly custom-made, and the brand he wore was well-known. Naturally, they would know his exact measurements.
"Have you eaten?" She awkwardly changed the topic.
"Not yet," he replied lightly, his voice carrying a subtle smile.

"Lila, you can play later." He bent down slightly, looking at her card gwith interest.
She had patience for it. Even though it was such a pointless game, she was playing it with such enthusiasm that it made him unintentionally get caught up in the joy of it.
Lila didn't catch what he said, but she felt his hand gently rest on her head. She looked up, meeting his gaze. "Have you finished eating? Can you still eat the cake?" Kieran smiled helplessly. "I made pasta, and there's sfor you, too. Go ahead and eat." He bent down to pick up the small cake and walked toward the fridge.
Lila stood up and followed, the smell of food making her feel hungry. Although she had eaten lunch earlier, she hadn't really eaten much because she had been preoccupied. Now, the scent made her feel famished.
Next time, she would try not to bring up the topic of the woman he liked. That person was gone, and they could never go back to the past.
She slowly made peace with it, feeling much more at ease.
Kieran noticed the shift in her mood and looked up at her. "Magi Pictures just acquired a good production recently." "Hmm?" Lila thought for a moment. "I haven't heard that news." "They just got it. They should start promoting it by the end of the year. It's a martial arts story focused on a group of characters. The female characters are quite likable." He spoke as though it was just a regular conversation, but it caught her attention.
A martial arts story with a group of characters and Female characters who were likable? If it was something like "The Karate Kid," maybe she could get roles for Jamie and Teddy.
Currently, the two of them had only had projects with Nexus Entertainment and Citrus Media. Whether Nexus Entertainment's project would air was uncertain, especially with the negative attention surrounding Dorian. He was pretty much a non-entity in the industry now.
She lowered her gaze, realizing these matters no longer concerned her.
Lila nodded, a smile dancing in her eyes. "Thank you, Uncle Kieran." As expected, he was a great help to her. After they finished their meal, Kieran took the bowls and washed them in the sink.

Thinking about Magi Pictures's new production, Lila woke up the next morning feeling quite refreshed and went straight to the office to find Cedric. "How did you hear the news so quickly?" Cedric asked, puzzled. "This is only known by the top management. How do you..." He suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
"Mr. Morgan must be biased, letting you in on the news privately." He joked, pretending to be dissatisfied.
Lila smiled, her lips curving slightly.
"How is that biased? I'm also part of Magi Pictures. We made .co of preparations early and successfully secured it. It's only right that we take advantage of the opportunity.
"But don't worry. We won't use our connections. When the tcomes, Jamie and Teddy Will Compete for the foles as usual. I just want to confirm the script in advance and see if the two roles fit them well."
