Samuel said nothing to reprimand her, but she felt guilty, especially after Billy called asking her to retum to the company the following altemoon.
she informed Samuel in advance, and he agreed readily. Still, she felt increasingly guilty.
After working for several years, she had never before missed work multiple times due to personal matters as she had this time.
Moreover, Buly seemed unusually anxious to have her retum, making her feel that something was amiss.
She served what was wrong when she entered his office the next day,
Doman was there too, and to her surprise, he stood up as if to greet her.
“Lille,” he said gently.
Lila glanced at him, wanting to tell him to stop calling her that, but when she saw Billy’s clueless and silly grin, she simply frowned and chose not to address it. “Mr. Johnson, why did you call me back so quickly? Did something happen?”
She ignited Dorm completely, and he felt a complex mix of emotions.
“1 called you back because of a great opportunity! Let’s sit down and discuss.”
Bally ushered her to a seat on the nearby sofa, facing Dorian
Lila frowned slightly. She disliked being touched and didn’t want to face Dorian directly.
Considering Dorian’s prood personality, it was strange for him to seek her forgiveness after she had rejected him repeatedly. That said, his late–developing feelings came off as rather cheap.
Her gaze dropped as she recalled that just two or three months ago, she had hoped for a harmonious relationship leading to marriage, but now, merely seeing him affected her mood poorly.

“Well, you should really thank Dorian for this! He specifically pulled some strings for you because he thinks you’re incredibly talented.”
She couldn’t help but frown again, feeling like she was about to develop wrinkles.
Bully went on. “You’re acting as both assistant director and mentor to the newcomers, which is truly exhausting. As such, Dorian requested the company to replace your Dewcomers with a first–tier actor.
“This actor will have an assistant, so you won’t need to worry too much, and you’ll still be able to shoot. Isn’t that great news?”
Lila was pendeped speechless. This was completely unnecessary.
as if her words from yesterday meant nothing to him. Dorian had interpreted them entirely to his liking. Did he think she was asking for resources?
Lata stood up and directly refused. “There’s no need for that. The two newcomers I’m working with are doing great. They listen well and have a lot of potential. I appreciate the goodwill, Mr. Jotunon, Mr. Blake, but I really have to go”
Denali clenched his fastly, as kes tuming pale from the pressure. “Lila, I just think you’re working too hard. Seeing you run back and forth between two film, bet servery day makes me worned.”
