MainNovelChapter 41
Although Teddy didn't fully understand the situation, his subsequent comments
were like a struggling student answering a question, somehow managing to piece together a response with his
flawed logic.
For the first time, Jamie felt like applauding this silly brother of hers.
Dorian's expression was horrid.
Had Teddy's and Lila's relationship improved so much in just a few days?
A newcomer dared to offend him for her?
He cast a cold, menacing glance at the two, causing Darcy nearby to flinch under the oppressive atmosphere.
"There's no need to involve others in our matters." Lila stepped forward, positioning herself in front of them.
Dorian scoffed, about to retort when Zara's assistant rushed over in a panic. "Not good, Mr. Blake! Zara just fell!"
He frowned slightly, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes.
Was it a coincidence, or did something always happen to interrupt him whenever he tried to speak with Lila?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What happened?" Darcy yelled first before turning to Lila with a dark expression. "Did you do something?"
"No! Lila has been standing here since she arrived. You saw that, didn't you? If you don't need your eyes, donate
them to someone who does. At least you'll accumulate good karma and maybe have a smarter brain in your next
life!" Jamie retorted.
What kind of person was this?
Teddy wanted to applaud Jamie's incredible talent for comebacks!
Darcy's words dispelled Dorian's lingering doubts, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
His gaze landed on Lila. "Fine, | can avoid involving others, but you need to tone down your temper, cback
to me, and don't target Zara anymore. This is the last time!"
Her expression darkened, and a cold smile tugged at her lips.
Dorian didn't look at her anymore and shifted his gaze to the boxes. "I'll give you two days to think it over. Don't
letdown again."
He then turned and strode away.
Darcy took a few steps before turning back. She first glanced at the items on the ground before speaking up.
"Lila, Dorian personally asked you to cback. Are you feeling quite pleased with yourself right now? But so
what? Compared to Zara, you're still the less significant one!"
She rolled her eyes and continued, "You're getting old, and you seem to be regressing. You don't think a little
money will make Dorian jealous, do you? If you want him back, you should use your brain to figure out who to
please!"
Lila raised an eyebrow, laughing lightly. "Are you implying that you're beggingto spend money on you?"
Darcy was caught off guard and jumped in frustration. "Who would want your measly offerings? It's like giving
alms to a beggar!"
"Is that so? Because | think you're even more of a beggar when it comes to asking."
Lila's gaze fell on Darcy's earrings, which clashed with her makeup-a bold, exaggerated look paired with
traditional earrings.
The earrings aren't expensive, costing just over 2,000 bucks. Lila found them delicate and exquisite, which was
why she couldn't resist buying them.
When she first gave them to Darcy, she had been scorned for gifting a "cheap item".
Darcy didn't want to wear them either, but it had been ages since she had received anything new since Lila
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbroke up with Dorian.
She had cycled through all her earrings, and classmates had begun asking if she was short on money since she
hadn't bought any new ones.
With her limited living expenses, she couldn't afford those high-end brands. So, she had to dig out these never-
worn cheap earrings.
She never thought of running into Lila today, who was mercilessly pointing and ridiculing her!
Darcy looked as if she had just been punched in the gut, unable to muster any words, making her appear quite
comical.
Teddy's gaze landed on Lila. She wore a smile, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
Unlike her usual gentle demeanor, she now resembled a rare herb- clean and untainted, exuding an air of
distance.
He found it hard to look away.
No, no! His idol was Zara. A good man can't be so fickle!
He quickly averted his gaze.
