Chapter 57

    Dorian was the face of Nexus Entertainment, and L had the Morgan family as her backing.


    Regardless of which, neither was someone Leonard could afford to offend.


    Noticing his hesitation, L didn''t want to put him in a difficult position. "Mr. Lawson, all I need is the surveince footage and the filming videos from here. I''ll find out the truth myself. The rest has nothing to do with you."


    She turned back, her cold gaze sweeping over Dorian and Zara. The chilling scrutiny made both of them stiffen slightly.


    "We must get to the bottom of this. What do you think, Dorian?"


    Dorian narrowed his eyes. Those beautiful eyes, which he once loved most used to shine clearly with his reflection.


    But now, while he could see his shadow in them, it felt like he was trapped in an ice cer, never to see the light of day again.


    Dorian''s heart tightened momentarily, but he quickly dismissed that feeling.


    He mustn''t be fooled by her pretentious demeanor.


    She knew very well that Zara was gentle and kind. How could she possibly harm a neer for no reason?


    Her aggressive attitude now was just another way to target her!


    He clenched his fist. "What if Zara is being wronged?"


    "If she is wronged, I will publicly apologize to her," L answered without hesitation.


    Everyone looked at her in surprise. Although L was not an actress, her association with Dorian made her more famous than some actual stars.


    There have been many rumors online about her, Dorian, and Zara recently. If she publicly apologized at this moment, it would be like putting herself on disy to be roasted.


    For a moment, even Jamie felt a bit guilty. L wouldn''t have been dragged into this mess if it weren''t for her.


    She gritted her teeth and stepped out from behind L. "This situation arose because of me. If Zara didn''t do it, then I will publicly apologize to her."


    Dorian didn''t even nce at her, his gaze still fixed firmly on L. "You want to apologize publicly? How many people even know you? This minor loss of yours cannotpensate for Zara''s grievances.


    "L, don''t be too naive!" he said.


    A smile yed on his lips, and he could clearly see the brief pause in L''s eyes.


    He was doing this on purpose, pushing L to mention more severe consequences. She would naturallye to him for help when she couldn''t back down anymore.


    Jamie furrowed her brows, worry evident as she looked at L.


    But L lifted her gaze, her expression cold and clear. She locked onto Dorian''s eyes before slowly breaking into a smile.


    Looking at his confident demeanor, L''s eyes held unmistakable mockery.


    He really didn''t understand Zara at all.


    Initially, L had only harbored suspicions, but with Jamie''s words, she was now certain that Zara had done this intentionally.


    "Alright, since Dorian thinks that''s not enough, let''s add another condition. If I truly wronged Zara, I will voluntarily leave Nexus Entertainment." She spoke without a hint of weakness.


    Everyone around was taken aback, including Zara, whose gaze held a hint of disbelief.


    In her view, when L said she would leave, it was just out of spite. Otherwise, she wouldn''t keep appearing in front of Dorian.


    Zara was determined to cut off ties between them, but she hadn''t expected that L would say something like leaving Nexus Entertainment for the sake of two


    neers.


    However, Zara didn''t feel too surprised.


    She wouldn''t mind letting them continue their quarrel if she weren''t doing it on purpose.


    But the truth was, she knew that Dorian''s car ident yesterday was to chase after L.


    She had endured her difort and actively went to take care of Dorian, only to be thrown out.


    And he even said that L was his girlfriend!


    She was long past being that, and it would never be possible again!


    After returning home, Zara had a sleepless night.


    She tossed and turned, constantly thinking about how to make them fall apart. Finally, she remembered how much L cared about those two neers. So, she decided to use them to force her away. If something happened, Dorian would surely defend her, and L would undoubtedly be utterly disappointed.
