Otherwise, how could Dorian and Lila have possibly run into each other here?
Citrus Media wasn't something someone with no background like her could easily acquire.
What a fool!
Owen was in a good mood, smiling as he explained, "This is not my daughter. Her name is Lila, and she's here to discuss a collaboration with our Citrus Media."
Amelia nodded, smiling at Lila. "Ms. Lila, hello. I'm Amelia."
"Mr. Blake, this is the beautiful girl I told you about earlier, the one I accidentally bumped at the entrance. Isn't she stunning?" She tugged at Dorian's sleeve.
"Lila, what a coincidence," Dorian spoke, emphasizing the last word.
Amelia looked surprised, glancing between the two. "You two know each other?"
Only Amelia's gaze was innocent among the four of them while the others had slightly strange expressions. They were all smiling, but it just didn't feel right.
Owen understood the industry dynamics and their relationship. That was why he was stunned to see Dorian.
He looked thoughtfully at his Amelia, her expression calm and composed.
It didn't seem like an act.
He didn't think Amelia was some naive, sheltered heiress from a wealthy family. This probably happened because she only understood part of the story.
"Of course, we're quite familiar," Dorian said with a faint smile, but his gaze toward Lila was full of amusement. "Isn't that right, Ms. Hart?"
Lila was confused as she met his eyes. What exactly was he trying to play here?
As the Nexus Entertainment crew began to wrap up, the male lead, Dorian, was still busy. Although it was a big female-centric drama, the male lead still had significant screen time.
Coupled with the female lead's scene reshoots, the workload for everyone in the crew had greatly increased.
Yet, Dorian still managed to spare time to meet with Amelia, which indicated that this meeting was important to him.
Judging by Amelia's expression, they clearly did not discuss collaboration. But Dorian could still manage to act like Lila and he were long-lost friends?
Lila couldn't figure out what he was up to, but she didn't have the time to indulge him in this little performance.
However, Amelia seemed happy for some reason.
