Chapter 110
Seeing Lila’s confidem expression, Jamie and Teddy still couldn’t completely relax. Everyone’s attention was on her as she lowered her eyes and smiled lightly.
“I’m sure you all know by now, but Dorian and I had a falling out because he gave the sandalwood bracelet to another woman at the awards ceremony.”

But she maintained her gentle sandle, appearing calm and beautiful, like a white moonflower quietly blooming in the night.
“The event is over now. I’ll be leaving with Jane and Teddy. I hope everyone has a good time.”
She waved at the two, who were still stunned, and left without cating that the camera was still on her. Like a fleeting moment, she was gone. Fans slowly began to teart.
