Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 27

Zara explained, "Lila, don't misunderstand. Dorian and I were just..."

Lila tilted her head and wore a playful smile. "No need to explain. I understand! A brother helping his sister with a little eye makeup-there's nothing to clarify."

She smiled, but there were no traces of joy.

Behind her, Jamie and Teddy felt the atmosphere turn awkward.

Teddy glanced back at the person lounging nearby. "Did you intentionally point us to the wrong room?"

The person, yawning lazily, replied calmly, "Sorry, my bad! It's the one next door."

He couldn't stand how Lila used to act.

"You!" Teddy exclaimed in anger.

Jamie quickly grabbed him. "Calm down. This isn't the place for a confrontation."

Dorian gritted his teeth when he saw Lila's carefree and disrespectful demeanor. "Lila, can you knock?"
