Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 255

Another voice spoke up in the restroom. "Who knows? That woman only has her looks going for her. She has no family background and no real talent. What is she even doing in the entertainment industry?

"Let's be honest, isn't it just another form of selling herself? And Mr. Morgan doesn't seem to mind."

"Shh, keep your voice down," the first girl whispered. "If anyone from the Morgan family hears you saying that, you're done for! No matter what, she's the one the Morgan family is backing now."

"If she were clean, would people even have anything to say? I heard she was with her ex-boyfriend for five or six years. There's no way she's still pure. She—"

As the girl turned around, she saw Lila leaning casually against the doorframe. Her hand trembled in shock, and her lipstick fell to the floor with a loud clatter. The lipstick rolled across the floor and stopped right at Lila's feet.

Lila bent down, picked it up, and handed it back to her.

"My hands aren't dirty, but this thing of yours is pretty filthy," Lila remarked as she let go of the lipstick.

The girl's face went pale instantly.

Lila's words clearly responded to her earlier comment, indirectly calling her out for her foul mouth.

The girl was furious but didn't dare say much more.

The Morgan family protected Lila. If things escalated, she'd be the one to suffer. Even her family might face consequences as well.

She bit down on her lip, her expression mixed with humiliation and anger.

The other girl tugged her arm and said, "Good day, Ms. Hart. We've got things to do, so we'll be going now."

After the two left, Lila turned on the faucet when another person stepped out from one of the stalls.
