Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 54

Monica looked at him, her brows slowly knitting together in disbelief. "I insisted on being the manager?"

She was so angry she laughed. "Dorian, I did have that intention then, but I didn't force it. You were the one who wanted the resources I had and suggested changing managers, wasn't it?"

Dorian frowned, keeping a cold silence.

Monica sneered. "Haven't you benefited from the resources I provided? You sure didn't have this look on your face when you were enjoying those perks!"

Seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly tense, Ethan intervened, "Let's all calm down. Our priority now is to reclaim the project, right? We can talk to Ms. Hart properly when we get the chance."

Monica scoffed, her gaze toward Dorian laced with sarcasm. "Dorian, you're a movie star, yet you still don't understand women. At this point, do you really think she still loves you?"

"What did you say?" Dorian glared at her, grinding his teeth as he asked, "If she doesn't love me, does she love you then?"

"Get lost!" he yelled.

At this point, Monica had lost all desire to continue the conversation. She gave him a deep look and a mocking smile before leaving the hospital room.

As Zara rushed in with urgent news, she brushed past Monica.

Monica's gaze fell on her, and a playful smile crept onto her lips.

Zara was moving quickly and didn't notice.
