Chapter 109
in the brightly lit president’s office of Morgan Demip, Cole stood acmss from the desk, cold sweat dripping as he listened to the live stream of Dorian and the host’s conversation
The man sitting before him had deep, penetrating eyes fixed on the screen, which displayed a young woman’s exquisite face. She raised her gaze to the camera, almost like locking eyes with Kieran through the scren
“M-| LMorgan, should 1 call Leonard and have him stop the live stream?”
A faint, cold laugh escaped Kieran’s throat. His movements were relaxed yet elegant.
-spread the word. Any company that collaborates with Dorian of renews contracts with him will no longer be working with Morgan Group,
Cole didn’t hesitate for a moment and quickly responded, “Understood. I’ll handle it right away.”
Dorian brought this upon himself by provoking the wrong person. His career in the entertainment Industry was about to end.
Dorian’s gaze swept subtly over Jamie and Teddy off–camera, silently waming Lila. If she dared to say anything that left him in an embarrassing position, those two newcomers would be the ones to pay the price.
Lila’s eves narrowed slightly in response to his despicable behavior. It she had saved his dignity now in front of the camera and later rejected him again, she would have been portrayed as unreasonable:
The public would see her as petty, attention–seeking, ungrateful… Every label would be firmly attached to her.
The camera tumed to her, the lights following suit. Herexposed arms, highlighted by the black fabric of her dress, appeared even more fair and luminous. Lile stood there quietly, her face devoid of unnecessary emotion. Her features were clean and sharp, her expression as cool and ethereal as the moonlight on this cold night.

The fans watching the live stream w
were momentarily struck by her beauty. The flood of comments paused for an instant, only to “Now I get why Dorian is so devoted! If my partner looked like this, I’d slap myself first in an argument!”
“Lila’s been by his side for years. As a hardcore fan, this is the first time I’ve seen her face so clearly. No wonder he loept her hidden so well.” “Not fair, Dorian! You’re living the dream, and we don’t even get to have a look at her!”
“She’s like an angel sent by the heavens! And me? What am I even?
We’re just unlucky, that’s what.”
sgorgeous, but I don’t want Dorian dating. Still, seeing his red, teary eyes that day, I felt so bad for him!”
“Ms. Han, please forgive Dorian. I’ll create a hashtag for you two!”
The host glanced at the live stream, which showed no signs of losing momentum and couldn’t help but marvel at it. As expected of Dorian, he was popular and skilled. If any other male celebrity revealed their relationship, they would be getting roasted by now.
Lila merely looked up at Dorian without saying a word. The host signaled the cameraman to get a shot of them exchanging glances, aiming to create buzz around their supposed romance.
They looked at each other from a distance, and the fans excitedly began to scra
“This is fate! It’s destiny!”
After a brief pause, the host asked, “Ms. Hart, many people online support your relationship with Mr. Blake and are curious–when do you plan to forgive him?” The camera was no longer on Dorian, but his gaze carried a warning as he looked at Lila.
Zara had suggested tearing Lila a lesson the other day, but he couldn’t bear to let her suffer anymore. After considering his options, he decided that pressuring
in out of the nerdia was the best move.
He hader’t fully figured out how to execute it until Teddy’s stupidity handed in the perfect opportunity.
Dorian noticed her delicate land at her side, subtly clenching into a fist, and thought, “tala, this is your punishment for disobedience. I’ve already treated you so well –don’t disappoint me any lurtlart.”
Off camera, Jannie and Teddy look their heads at Lila, signaling her not to give in to Dorian’s thurats.

His tense postupe rated what he saw her traction. It seemed she knew what to do,
He was already prepared to embrace her when she uttered the words about wanting to be with him again
It was noty because he wanted to slow everyone lids drep affection but also because, truthfully, he missed her gentle lugs and the tamiliar scent she carried As Jamie and Teddy led to step forward to intervene, Lila sheckler head slightly, sigruling them to stay put.
