However, Mr. Morgans ina fool; an employee who lacked dedication would never have the chance to enter the Morgan group
“With the Morgan Group’s substantial funding, adding a film investment is merely a small matter. Even if it means investing in the entire film, it’s just a drop in the bucket in the Morgan Group’s annual revenue.
“Mr. Grant, wouldn’t you agter?” Samuel’s gaze flickened as he pressed his lips together, glancing at Decian. Cole’s words wene diplomatic, yet the message was
If Dorian wasn’t dedicated, Kieran would despise such individuals. As long as Dodan was excluded from the film, Samuel could request any amount of investment
Even the mention of investing in the entire movie implied that should Samuel ask for one or two fundred million, the torgan Group could easily accommodate t
While this sum was insignificant for the Morgan Group, Samuel couldn’t shale the feeling that Cole was targeting Durian. Lila’s heart tightened as she suddenly pecalled mentioning to her unde yesterday that she felt the investments in the film were insufficient.

“Who do you think you are? The decision on whether an actor stays or leaves should be made by Mr. Grant, not you!”
Lila pressed her lips together, trying to suppress a laugh Usually, Samuel shouldn’t be swayed by investors‘ options, but he couldn’t ignore the tact that the
Morgan Group was offering so much
Not only had Dorian not been officially cast, but no contract had been signed. Taylor recommended him, and the audition process had merely been a formality.
But now. Lila could see that Samuel was contemplating. Samuel wanted to keep Dorian. Since it was his trust time handling a task for Taylor, he felt it was inappropriate to go against his wisdim.
However, when tiorian insisted that if Samuel wanted to keep him, he had to keep Zara, tou, Samuel was no longer willing to keep Dorian. He was just struggling to think of an explanation for Taylor
Now, with Dorian and Lilaclarly at odds and the Morgan Group giving such a huge opportunity, Samuel had no reason to hesitate any longer.

In simple terms, he needed the money, and the two could leave. Dorian clenched his fists, clearly taken aback by this outcome. His complexion shifted from ashen to a shade of anger
Lila planned all this, right? He fard his gaze on her. “Lila, you really are something!”

Zara, with her teary eyes, lifted her gaze. Lila tilted her chin at Cole, who straightened his back even more.
Being of service to Lila was a tremendous honor in his eyes. After all, while others might be unaware of her significance in Kieran’s eyes, he was fully aware Making a good impression on Kieran through her was far more valuable than trying to curry favor with him directly.
“This is Cole, the personal assistant to Kieran Morgan, the CEO of the Morgan Group,” she said with a light laugh. Although her voice was soft, Zara found in grating
Dorian felt the same irritation.
The Morgan Group? His expression was skeptical. “After all these years, you still haven’t severed ties with Naah?
Lila stood in place, her eyes carrying a faint chill, her pale skin exuding an dey aura.
“Why are you suddenly interested in my affairs?” She smiled, yet it held no trace of joy.
Dorian paused for a moment. He had been very strict with Lila in the past, and his possessiveness made him intolerant of her associations with other men. Occasionally, he’d even telt jealous over work–related matters.
However, over the past two years, after becoming one of the best actors, his workload intensified, and Zara had just entered the entertainment industry.
His focus had been significantly diverted, and he paid less attention to Lila’s affairs. But wasn’t loyalty in a relationship a fundamental principle of love? 00
