Leonard began, "Mr. Morgan''s request="


    Cole cut him off with a smile, saying, "Mr. Morgan will fully cover any losses incurred by the production."


    Leonard''s eyes widened in shock and confusion.


    Cole continued with a hint of humor, "Mr. Lawson, can you not tell what Mr. Morgan''s intentions are? Do you think he''s out to get you?"


    Leonard looked at Cole suspiciously. Wasn''t that exactly what was happening right now?


    With L getting injured on set, Leonard figured Kieran might be looking for someone to me. As the director, Leonard would be the first in line.


    Appearing to know Leonard''s thoughts, Cole chuckled. "Do you see Mr. Morgan as someone unreasonable? Whoever''s at fault needs to apologize. In which case, have you done anything wrong, Mr. Lawson?"


    At this question, Leonard couldn''t help but break into a cold sweat. If Kieran wanted to go after someone, did he really need a reason?


    Cole spoke again. "Mr. Lawson, let me give you a hint. Do you really think Ms. Hayes could hurt Ms. Hart and still walk away as if nothing happened-continuing her dream of stardom?"


    Leonard was stunned but quickly understood. Kieran wasn''t making things difficult for him. He was practically a lifesavering to Leonard''s rescue.


    If Kieran had quietly dealt with Zara, then Leonard would really be in troubleter.


    Kieran hadn''t just sent someone to warn him, but he also offered to cover all the losses.


    With newfound gratitude, Leonard felt the urge to drop to his knees in thanks. "Thank you, Mr. Mason, and please extend my gratitude to Mr. Morgan. I''ll handle this matter properly."


    Cole nodded and handed him a check. "And keep Ms. Hart out of it."


    Leonard marveled at how dedicated Kieran was to his adopted niece. He went to such lengths just to stand up for her.

    Meanwhile, Teddy sat with his head down, struggling to understand how someone as kind and gentle as Zara could be capable of such an awful act. Was his judgment really that bad?


    Unwilling to ept it, he pulled out his phone to rewatch the video of Zara pushing him on purpose.


    But before the webpage even loaded, a notification popped up from the film production''s official ount.


    Reading the content, he nearly leaped out of this wheelchair. "What the fuck?" Jamie shot him a disapproving nce.


    "I didn''t mean to swear, but look at this." Teddy took a deep breath, the surprise still on his face. "The official page just announced that our film''s female lead is being reced!"


    L looked just as surprised. With Dorian''s support, Zara was still being swapped out?


    "This feels like magic," Teddy muttered, blinking in disbelief.


    Jamie opened the page to check the details and soon let out a chuckle. "Ms. Hart, someone has mapped out a timeline of your rtionship with Dorian, and now they are using Zara of being a homewrecker."


    She scrolled further down the blogger''s post. Soon enough, Jamie''s eyes widened


    as she came across the details about the sandalwood bracelet.


    "Ms. Hart, did you really spend hours praying on Mount Shasta for Dorian''s sake?"


    The blogger had also included an old news article about ady performing devout prayers on Mount Shasta.


    The report featured photos of thedy in prayer and hanging up a wish. Although blurry over time, a closer look revealed thedy''s resemnce to L.


    The hashtag #ZaraHayesTheHomewrecker quickly climbed into the top ten trending topics.
