Chapter 119

Ryker hadn't been spoken to in such a tone in years, especially by a minor actress. He gave Leyla a dispassionate glance before carefully lowering his head to inspect the camera again.

This wasn't his first time noticing it. From the moment Lila had brought out this camera on her first day here, he had been itching to take a closer look.

Now that he had the chance, he examined it thoroughly, noting the unfortunate chipped corner-a pity, but it didn't significantly impact the camera's value. It truly was an excellent piece of equipment.

Someone in the crowd who was eager to see Lila get embarrassed couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Workman, how is it?"

It was strange how people with no prior grievance against someone could find satisfaction in their misfortune. They derived an odd sense of superiority from stepping on others when they were down.

Lila glanced at the person who had spoken. Her calm and fleeting gaze made them uncomfortable. The words they were about to say to stir things up were caught in their throats, and they quickly swallowed them down.

Wasn't she supposed to have a soft personality? Her look wasn't aggressive, yet the cold indifference left a chill in the air.

Ryker handed the camera back to Lila. "The 500 thousand Lila mentioned is already the lowest compensation amount."

Leyla let out a shrill scream. "That's impossible!"

She sounded like a squawking chicken.
