Chapter 41
comments were like a struggling student answering question, somehow managing to piece
Although Teddy didn’t fully understand the situation, his subsequent com together a response with his flawed logle
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 dated to offend him for her?
He cast a cold, menacing glance at the two, causing Darcy Heady 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 scoiled, about to retort when Zata’s assistant noshed over in a pante. “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?
“What happened? Darcy yelled first before tuming to Lila with a dark expression. “Did you do something?”
“No! Lala has been standing here since she antved. Your caw that, didn’t you? If you don’t need your eyes, donate them to someone who does. At least you’l accumulate good kamma and maybe have a smarter brain in your next lite!” Jamie retorted.
What kind of person was
Teddy wanted to applaud Jamie’s incredible talent for comeback!
Darcy’s words dispelled Dorian’s lingering doubts, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
His gaze landed on Lila. “Fine, I can avoid involving others, but you need to tone down your temper, come back to me, and don’t target Zara anymore. This is the
Last time!”
Herexpression darkened, and a cold unile tugged at her lips.
Dorian didn’t look at her anymore and shatted his gaze to the boxes. “I’ll give you two days to think it over. Don’t let me down 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 come back 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 begging me to 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 I 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–abold, exaggerated look paired with traditional earrings.

The earrings aren’t expensive, costing past 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, had been scored 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 broke 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–wom 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 arry 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 tidde!
He quickly averted his gaze.
