Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 176

Although the two had only met twice, Amelia posted on social media almost daily, and Lila had never seen her wear the same outfit twice.

Amelia's face lit up at the question. "I haven't been back in the country long, and I'm not very familiar with Northridge. Why don't you recommend a place?"

"Any dietary restrictions?"

"Just no spicy food. I can't handle it."

This comment reminded Lila of how Jamie had once tried to help her out, claiming

to love spicy food. Yet, halfway through the meal, she was tearing up from the spiciness.

It was quite endearing.

A soft smile formed on Lila's face unconsciously.

After wrapping up these next few days, she planned to visit the set and check in on them. Since they were about to finish filming, she would treat the entire crew to some drinks. Not only did she want to build connections, but she also wanted to thank them for all their hard work.

Amelia noticed the sudden warmth in her expression and figured she must be thinking about someone. A boyfriend, perhaps?

She wanted to ask but decided it would be inappropriate to pry into someone else's personal matters.
