too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 224

"Was Fletcher's audition tape filmed at your audition site, or was it reshot later to cover up your own agenda?"

"Lila, if you don't clarify these things, should we assume you implicitly agree with these claims?"

"Why is Terry helping you so much? Is there something inappropriate between you two?"

"If your relationship with Fletcher is legitimate, why are his fans intercepting you?"

"Also, did you break up with Dorian because you fell for someone else? Now that you've lost your cash cow, are you aiming for Fletcher instead?"

The reporters bombarded her with distorted and speculative questions, passing the microphone past Terry and holding it up to Lila through the car window.

Lila listened to the interrogation without any expression, as calmly as if she were listening to someone else's problems.

Terry looked at her with some concern. With all these people surrounding them, he didn't really have a good way out.

She gave him a reassuring smile. "Let me out. These people won't act recklessly."

They were not like those crazy fans; they understood the consequences of making a move.

She opened the car door and got out. Though she was wearing a hospital gown, it couldn't conceal her exceptional presence. Her delicate face and the hint of aloofness in her eyes made her appear even more ethereal and cool, like a flower blooming in a snowfield, pure and solitary in the world.

The surrounding reporters quieted down noticeably. They exchanged glances and then unanimously extended their microphones toward her, waiting for her response.

"As for Fletcher, our relationship is clear. The audition footage is real, and many people witnessed it. His talent is unquestionable, and our communication was simply the normal interaction between director and actor."

The male reporter shouted, "What evidence do you have to prove what you're saying is true?"

Terry almost punched him. "How do you know it's fake?"
