too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 111

The morning after the live stream, Lila received two calls from the company informing her that Jamie and Teddy's scheduled appearances had suddenly been canceled.

She listened quietly to the other end of the line, and when they finished, she would reply with a calm, "Alright," before hanging up.

Samuel noticed her somber expression and asked her with concern if something was wrong.

She shook her head and replied, "It's nothing."

He wasn't sure how to press further, but as it happened, Taylor and Camille were visiting the film set that day, so he mentioned the situation briefly.

Camille frowned deeply. When she learned what had happened the previous night, her face darkened.

"When I saw Dorian crying like that, I thought he was genuinely remorseful. Who would have expected him to pressure Lila like this? I'm going to settle this with him right now!"

Taylor stopped her. "Calm down. Confronting him won't help. Even if he listens to you and stops targeting Lila directly, he could still make trouble for the two newcomers under her wing.

"You know what Lila is like. If others suffer because of her, she'll only feel worse."

She furrowed her elegant brows. "So what? Should she just swallow this injustice?"

Looking up, she saw Lila approaching, her expression full of concern.

But Lila smiled gently, as usual, and affectionately took her arm. "Mrs. Foster, you're here. How have you been lately?"

Camille immediately understood that Lila had overheard their conversation and was intentionally changing the subject. Upon seeing her silence, Lila sighed softly. "I didn't want you to worry, but you found out anyway.

"Don't worry about me. I'm not going to just sit back and take this," she said with a faint smile. "It's a bit of a hassle right now because those two newcomers have been dragged into this because of me. I can't leave them behind and ignore their situation.

"But since they're under contract with the company, I need to consult someone first about the details."

Camille sensed that Lila already had a plan in mind. "And then?"

"Then, I'll take them with me and change agencies, of course."
