Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 147

Lila acted as though she didn't notice Margaret's fury radiating off of her.

She looked innocent and said, "Could it be that those elite women didn't invite you because they felt your status was so noble that they were too embarrassed to ask?"

Margaret looked as if she had been struck in the chest, but she still made an effort to maintain her poised demeanor.

"You... You lowly woman! How dare you speak to my mother like that!" Darcy said through gritted teeth. "Did you ever think about what would happen when you made Ms. Parker stop teaching me? Did you ever think about why you got kicked out of Nexus Entertainment? Karma is real. Just wait, you'll die starving in some alley!"

Lila looked at her, surprised by how quickly they had gotten the information.

Her gaze became slightly appraising, and her look carried a certain implication that made Darcy and Margaret uneasy.

Margaret had often made things difficult for Lila, either intentionally or unintentionally.

But despite that, Lila had always been polite toward her.
