Dorian had just bought a pair of matching rings he planned to give Lila when he received a call from Zara.
At the time, the scandal about Zara being a homewrecker hadn't hit Twitter just yet.
"Dorian, Mr. Lawson replacedas the female lead!" Zara's sobs cthrough the other end of the phone.
Even though he couldn't see her, Dorian could imagine her eyes red and swollen, tears streaming down her
cheeks.
"What happened?" Zara was someone he had personally recommended for the role. Leonard wouldn't dare
replace her without his permission.
"Mr. Lawson calledand said that my negative press could cause major losses for the production, so they're
planning to replace me."

Dorian frowned, irritation spreading across his face. "He really knows how to make things difficult for me."
"What should | do now, Dorian?"
He narrowed his gaze and spoke with his usual tone of arrogance, still believing to be in control of everything.
"He hasn't informedyet, so there's still room to turn things around. Don't worry, I'll contact him."
With that, Zara's crying intensified. "It's too late! The official account has already released a statement."
Dorian's frown deepened. All the crying was giving him a headache. He was also furious at Leonard for his
unilateral decision.
"I'll go talk to him now!" A mocking smile spread across Dorian's face. Leonard dared to touch one of his people?
Was he trying to lose his job?
He ended the call, impatiently shoved the ring box into his pocket, and made his way to the film set with a
gloomy expression.
However, once he reached, his car was blocked in before he could even take a step outside.
A crowd with cameras and a horde of live-streamers were obviously waiting for him.
Dorian punched the steering wheel, visibly furious. He tried to put the car in reverse, but there were people
behind his car as well.
He pulled out his phone and called Ethan, planning to have him cquickly and handle the growing mess.
As soon as the call connected, he yelled angrily, "Get over to the film set now! I'm stuck here. Find someone to
deal with these people immediately."
Ethan paused on the other end, then spoke as if gathering a lot of courage, "Dorian, | tendered my resignation,
and the company has approved it. As of today, I'm no longer with Nexus Entertainment-no longer your assistant.
You'll have to find someone else to handle this."
"What did you say?" Dorian thought he must have misheard.
Ethan had been with him for years, and Dorian believed he had always treated his assistant well. And now-of all
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtimes-how could he just quit like that?
"Do you think you can find anything better without me?"
Ethan paused for a moment before replying, "That's exactly what you said when Ms. Hart left, and she's doing
just fine. | think | can do just as well as she did."
Dorian was stunned into silence, but his gaze turned cold.
"Fine, fine, fine!"
His grip on the phone tightened to the point where veins bulged on the back of his hand.
Ethan said calmly, "Dorian, | asked Mr. Lane the other day. The Lane Group's film project being stalled had
nothing to do with Ms. Hart. For the sake of our years together, | wanted to advise you—"
Before he could finish, Dorian interrupted with a curse, "Screw your advice! If you're leaving, get lost! If | see you
again, I'll make sure you regret it!"
The call ended abruptly. Ethan paused, closing his eyes to suppress the emotions surfacing within him.
