too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 153

Amelia said, "I don't know her. If I did, I would've invited her to eat together when I bumped into her at the door."

She then suddenly realized what Dorian was really asking.

Amelia laughed and added, "You're worried that I'm too interested in her and might investigate you through mutual connections, right?"

"Don't worry." She waved her hand. "I'm just a fan of good looks. When I see someone pretty, I can't look away.

"Don't you think she's super beautiful? I've seen a lot of people praised for their godly beauty, or get called 'the most beautiful woman in a thousand years', but compared to her, they're nothing."

Dorian's face showed a complicated expression. He knew how beautiful Lila was, but hearing Amelia complimenting someone so excessively made him feel that something was off.

However, Amelia didn't seem to sense any issue.

She smiled. "It's hard to describe the feeling Lila gives me. She's pure yet seductive. Those are two completely opposite words, but somehow, they both suit her perfectly.

"Did you notice the scent on her? It's a light jasmine fragrance. I'll ask her later which perfume she uses."

She tapped her forehead as if snapping herself out of a trance. "Ah, it's late. I should be heading back now.

"Mr. Blake, it was a pleasure talking to you today. I look forward to our next meet-up."

Dorian watched her wave goodbye with a bright smile, and he was slightly dazed for a moment.

It was like seeing the old Lila but with less of the gentle warmth.

Dorian felt conflicted. On one hand, he said Lila was an orphan with no one to care for her. On the other hand, he knew that her upbringing was better than anyone else's.

Her good manners made him think of her as a delicate flower.

He missed the Lila who once had him in her eyes and heart, who obediently listened to him.

He was lost in thought, unable to snap out of it.

It wasn't until someone called out for him to move that he returned to his senses.

He furrowed his brows, feeling ashamed of his unwarranted nostalgia for Lila.

…

Meanwhile, Lila picked up Jamie and Teddy and drove back to the set.

After returning to the hotel and packing, she was about to lie down when she received a friend request.
