Although Teddy didn''t fully understand the situation, his subsequentments
were like a struggling student answering a question, somehow managing to piece together a response with his wed logic.
For the first time, Jamie felt like apuding this silly brother of hers.
Dorian''s expression was horrid.
Had Teddy''s and L''s rtionship improved so much in just a few days?
A neer dared to offend him for her?
He cast a cold, menacing nce at the two, causing Darcy nearby to flinch under the oppressive atmosphere.
"There''s no need to involve others in our matters." L stepped forward, positioning herself in front of them.
Dorian scoffed, about to retort when Zara''s assistant rushed over in a panic. "Not good, Mr. ke! Zara just fell!"
He frowned slightly, a hint of suspicion shing in his eyes.
Was it a coincidence, or did something always happen to interrupt him whenever he tried to speak with L?
"What happened?" Darcy yelled first before turning to L with a dark expression. "Did you do something?"
"No! L has been standing here since she arrived. You saw that, didn''t you? If you don''t need your eyes, donate them to someone who does. At least you''ll umte good karma and maybe have a smarter brain in your next life!" Jamie retorted.
What kind of person was this?
Teddy wanted to apud Jamie''s incredible talent forebacks!
Darcy''s words dispelled Dorian''s lingering doubts, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
His gazended on L. "Fine, I can avoid involving others, but you need to tone down your temper,e back to me, and don''t target Zara anymore. This is thest time!"
Her expression darkened, and a cold smile tugged at her lips.
Dorian didn''t look at her anymore and shifted his gaze to the boxes. "I''ll give you two days to think it over. Don''t let me down again."
He then turned and strode away.
Darcy took a few steps before turning back. She first nced at the items on the ground before speaking up.
"L, Dorian personally asked you toe back. Are you feeling quite pleased with yourself right now? But so what? Compared to Zara, you''re still the less significant one!"
She rolled her eyes and continued, "You''re getting old, and you seem to be regressing. You don''t think a little money will make Dorian jealous, do you? If you want him back, you should use your brain to figure out who to please!"
L raised an eyebrow,ughing lightly. "Are you implying that you''re begging me to spend money on you?"
Darcy was caught off guard and jumped in frustration. "Who would want your measly offerings? It''s like giving alms to a beggar!"
"Is that so? Because I think you''re even more of a beggar when ites to asking."
L''s gaze fell on Darcy''s earrings, which shed with her makeup-a bold, exaggerated look paired with traditional earrings.
The earrings aren''t expensive, costing just over 2,000 bucks. L found them delicate and exquisite, which was why she couldn''t resist buying them.
When she first gave them to Darcy, she had been scorned for gifting a "cheap item".
Darcy didn''t want to wear them either, but it had been ages since she had received anything new since L broke up with Dorian.
She had cycled through all her earrings, and ssmates had begun asking if she was short on money since she hadn''t bought any new ones.
With her limited living expenses, she couldn''t afford those high-end brands. So, she had to dig out these never-worn cheap earrings.
She never thought of running into L today, who was mercilessly pointing and ridiculing her!
Darcy looked as if she had just been punched in the gut, unable to muster any words, making her appear quiteical.
Teddy''s gazended on L. She wore a smile, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
Unlike her usual gentle demeanor, she now resembled a rare herb- clean and untainted, exuding an air of distance.
He found it hard to look away.
No, no! His idol was Zara. A good man can''t be so fickle!
He quickly averted his gaze.
