too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 35

Dorian frowned but didn't scold Darcy this time. Instead, he scrutinized Lila.

When had she become so vain?

Jamie, who had always stood by Lila's side, also hesitated.

Lila shook her head and said, "I really don't know how much it costs, but it's not that important to me. I can help you find the price if you care that much."

Her nonchalant attitude nearly sent Darcy into a rage. "You, you..."

After stammering for a while, she was so angry that she couldn't even complete a sentence.

"I'm hungry, so let's go eat first," Lila said as she pressed the car key.

The car she had just patted beeped in response.

The expressions of the others changed.

Jamie finally spoke up after a while. "Ms. Hart, are you like a secret millionaire or something?"

Lila opened the car door with a radiant smile, illuminating the space around her.

"Are we still going for spicy dishes?"

"Of course!" Jamie responded enthusiastically, her mood lifting like a happy puppy.

She also pulled Teddy along. "Get in the car quickly. Don't delay my meal time!"

With the car door shutting behind them, they drove off.

The three left behind exchanged meaningful glances, their expressions a mix of surprise and intrigue.

"How could Lila afford such a nice car? Has she hooked up with some rich guy?" Darcy was still a bit dazed.

Her words suddenly reminded Dorian of what his assistant had mentioned about seeing Lila get out of a Maybach.

He clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking ominously under the pressure.

Zara pressed her lips together. "No, that shouldn't be the case. Lila isn't that kind of person. She must have just made some money recently and bought a car for convenience."
