Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 32

It appeared that Jamie had unknowingly backed Lila up.

Teddy, with his somewhat simple-minded demeanor, greeted his idol cheerfully, "Hello, Ms. Hayes !"

She immediately flashed a warm smile. "Have you finished filming the morning scenes? Rest well. We have scenes together this afternoon, so let's give it our all!"

He nodded eagerly, like a child praised by a teacher. "Sure thing, Ms. Hayes! You rest well, too."

Jamie glanced at him before looking back at Lila. "Ms. Hart, what brings you here? Our filming has gone pretty smoothly today. The director even praised us for performing well as newcomers."

"Since I have a break now, how about I take you all out for a meal?" Lila replied, a hint of appreciation evident on her face. She hadn't expected them to be so easy to work with.

"Teddy, you don't have a formal acting background, so after some time, I'll arrange for you to get a teacher to improve your acting skills.

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask Jamie. I see a few seasoned actors in your crew. You can observe them during downtime to learn a lot."

Teddy broke into a bright smile, his youthful energy infectious to those around him.
