Levda sendfed illismissively. “Show me the secript list.“
There was no way she believed that old equipment was worth so much. And what was even more abound to her was how Lila could possibly afford something so
Lila gave a slight nod. “I don’t have the receipt.”

so thousand? For this? Ha Did you come here to tell us jokes because you thought the crew needed some entertainment? You’re killing E me!” she couldn’t help but baru into laughter at the end
A few others in the crew watching the drama unfold also revealed disdainful expressions.
“Dacianinast have dumped her because of how shameless she is,” they thought.
Leonard frowned slightly. This was getting troublesome. Should be inform Kieran and let him handle it?
Someone in the crowd called out, “Lila, enough already! If this keeps going, you’ll only embarrass yourself more!”
Lila scanned the faces around her and spotted a familiar figure not far away.
Kieran stood tall, with broad shoulders and a trim waist. His impeccable demeanor and tallored black suit exuded a restrained elegance. His sharp features and deep
sel eyes made him captivating.
When their eyes met, his usually cool gaze softened with a touch of wamih.
She blinked, a sense of comfort washing over her. For some reason, lie always gave her an unshakable sense of security.
Even though he stood there doing nothing, just looking at him calmed her heart. His eyes signaled her to take her time and handle things at her own pace…

“I’ve never seen this lens before.” Hyker said, immediately focusing on the camera lens.
Fur photographers, lenses were always the most critical element.
His words momentarily eased Leyla’s nerves. She was barely holding back her laughter now.
The others had similar expressions of disbelirt.
What was Lila trang to pull? She really knew how to stir things up.
Someone in the crowd ueried. “Lila, we all know you used to be Dorian’s favorite, but now that he’s dumped you, you’re just looking for ways to cash in, huld? This is just you making outrageous demandla!

Teddy chimed in as well, “Larily! At least let Mr. Workman finish looking before jumping in conclusionis.”
Leyla was visibly annoyed that people were speaking up for Lila. Perhaps out of impatience, her tone came acts as almost scolding. “Mr. Workman, are you done
