Chapter 153

    Amelia said, "I don''t know her. If I did, I would''ve invited her to eat together when I bumped into her at the door."


    She then suddenly realized what Dorian was really asking.


    Ameliaughed and added, "You''re worried that I''m too interested in her and might investigate you through mutual connections, right?"


    "Don''t worry." She waved her hand. "I''m just a fan of good looks. When I see someone pretty, I can''t look away.


    "Don''t you think she''s super beautiful? I''ve seen a lot of people praised for their godly beauty, or get called ''the most beautiful woman in a thousand years'', butpared to her, they''re nothing."


    Dorian''s face showed aplicated expression. He knew how beautiful L was, but hearing Ameliaplimenting someone so excessively made him feel that something was off.


    However, Amelia didn''t seem to sense any issue.


    She smiled. "It''s hard to describe the feeling L gives me. She''s pure yet seductive. Those are twopletely opposite words, but somehow, they both suit her perfectly.


    "Did you notice the scent on her? It''s a light jasmine fragrance. I''ll ask herter which perfume she uses."


    She tapped her forehead as if snapping herself out of a trance. "Ah, it''ste. I should be heading back now.


    "Mr. ke, it was a pleasure talking to you today. I look forward to our next meet- up."


    Dorian watched her wave goodbye with a bright smile, and he was slightly dazed for a moment.


    It was like seeing the old L but with less of the gentle warmth.


    Dorian felt conflicted. On one hand, he said L was an orphan with no one to care for her. On the other hand, he knew that her upbringing was better than anyone else''s.


    Her good manners made him think of her as a delicate flower.


    He missed the L who once had him in her eyes and heart, who obediently listened to him.


    He was lost in thought, unable to snap out of it.


    It wasn''t until someone called out for him to move that he returned to his senses.


    He furrowed his brows, feeling ashamed of his unwarranted nostalgia for L.


    Meanwhile, L picked up Jamie and Teddy and drove back to the set.


    After returning to the hotel and packing, she was about to lie down when she received a friend request.


    It was Amelia.


    L''s eyelid twitched. She had thought Amelia''s words at the restaurant entrance were just her being polite.


    But now, thinking Amelia might ask her all kinds of questions about Dorian, she didn''t feel like epting the request.


    However, considering the coboration with Joyce Group and Citrus Media, she pursed her lips.


    After a long stretch of work, she assumed Amelia had turned in for the night and hit "ept."


    To her surprise, a message came through just after epting the friend request.


    "L, are you still awake?"


    L was left speechless.


    She thought momentarily and replied, "Just finished some work. I was about to go to bed."


    Her message clearly signaled that she didn''t feel like chatting.


    As expected, Amelia was tactful.


    "Then get some rest. We can chat another day."


    "Goodnight."


    The filming for Samuel''s movie wrapped up perfectly, and L immediately felt a wave of rxation.


    The crew held a banquet to celebrate, and after the event, Samuel gave L a small gift to celebrate the sessfulpletion of her first big movie.


    Seeing her surprise and joy, Taylor and the other crew members also shared in her happiness, teasing Samuel for acting like her "big brother".


    It had been a joyful day, and L had a few drinks. She had to call for a designated driver when returning to the hotel.


    As she exited the elevator and turned the hallway''s corner, she saw someone standing before her door.


    L pinched her brow and muttered to herself, "I didn''t drink that much. Why am I hallucinating?"


    Why was Kieran standing outside her door?


    Kieran was amused by her words. His cold, distant look softened, and he reached out to steady her.
