Zara threw herself into Dorian''s arms without a second thought once they were in the car. "Dorian, I''m so sorry! It''s all my fault.
"If I hadn''t insisted on this role, you and L wouldn''t be in such a deadlock, and you wouldn''t have lost Taylor''s project. It''s all my fault.
"L is right. It''s myck of ability that cost me the part. I was there just to humiliate myself and drag you down with me. Please scold me!"
Dorian held her, gently patting her back. His tone was soft, a stark contrast to the harsh words he had spoken with L.
"It''s all L''s fault. It has nothing to do with you. She''s deliberately targeting you. It''s better not to act in this movie.
"L has clearly bribed Samuel. Being around people whock morals will only affect my work mood.
"Don''t worry. I''ll get back at her for the grievances you faced today."
Zara looked up at him, her eyes filled with admiration.
Then, her voice quivered, and she said, "But are you really going to make it public like L said? If you do, you might really end up tearing your rtionship apart."
Dorian let out a coldugh. "Zara, you''re too kind-hearted. You don''t understand how cunning L is. Her intentions are difficult to predict.
"The more you back down, the more she will take advantage of you. Since that''s the case, I have no reason to give her more chances.
"By making our situation public, she''ll see my determination. She''ll realize I won''t indulge her unreasonable antics any longer. Once everyone knows, no one will treat her kindly out of respect for me.
"At that point, she''ll understand who she really owes everything to, and naturally, L wille back to me obediently. I''ll make sure she apologizes to you properly."
Zara felt pleased. But when she heard, "Naturally, L wille back to me obediently," her mind went nk.
What did that mean? Dorian still wanted to be with L?
After Dorian left, both L and Cole maintained a calm demeanor, while Samuel''s expression was somewhat troubled. He wasn''t familiar with Dorian but had heard plenty of rumors about him.
This great actor, who had been in the spotlight over the past two years, was generally regarded as having a cold exterior but a warm heart. He was known for his tact and politeness.
However, today, his thoughts aligned with Cole''s; the rumors about Dorian circting weren''t entirely urate.
After hesitating, Samuel asked, "If this does get publicized, with so many fans, could it negatively impact you? Was that a bit too impulsive just now?"
Cole also felt that this situation could be troublesome. If a significant wave of negative public opinion arose, even with the Morgan Group''s intervention, it would be difficult to clean up the mess given the public''s collective voice.
This matter needed to be reported to Kieran immediately.
He thought briefly and said, "Mr. Grant, I''ve finished touring the set here. Just have someone calcte the required funds, and once you draft the contract, you can contact me.
"Can I have a word with Ms. Hart privately?"
When Samuel heard they could calcte the funds, he smiled broadly. He didn''t even notice what was said afterward; he just agreed.
L followed Cole to a secluded spot. Cole tried tofort her, "Ms. Hart, don''t be upset. It''s Dorian who doesn''t deserve you.
"As for the trouble he''s causing, Mr. Morgan will take care of it for you. Just focus on your filming here."
L smiled. "Mr. Mason, I can handle this myself. There''s no need to bother my uncle about it; he''s busy enough as it is. This tiny matter doesn''t require his attention."
Cole paused momentarily, and then his gaze softened as he looked at her. How could L be so well-behaved and understanding?
L felt a bit bewildered by his look.
"Ms. Hart, I''ve finished my business here. I need to head back to thepany to report to Mr. Morgan. He shoulde to pick you upter."
L nodded. She let out a slight sigh after watching him leave. She didn''t feel at ease inside, even though she spoke about it as if it were nothing just now.
She would need to consider how to handle the situation tomorrow.
