Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 91

Dorian was taken aback as if he couldn't quite believe her words.

"Lila, I'm trying to help-"

"Dorian." Lila's brows were knitted together, and she was devoid of the desire to continue the conversation. "Whatever. This has nothing to do with me anymore." With that, she turned to leave, leaving Dorian feeling a pang of hurt in his heart.

Unwilling to let it end like this, he hurried after her. "Fine. If you say I'm not helping, let's leave it at that. I'll listen to you," he said, sounding somewhat aggrieved.

"I've prepared a spot for you as my agent. Just wait a little longer. Once your work as the assistant director wraps up, I'll request to transfer you back to my team. You can continue being my agent, okay?"

Lila paused, and her brows twitched as a complex, unreadable emotion flickered in her eyes.

She scrutinized him, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity. "You've prepared a spot for me as your agent?"
