too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian)

Matthew looked up at her. "Amelia, what a coincidence."

"Come here." Amelia beckoned him over.

He obediently stepped closer. "What's up?"noveldrama

"Do you have a girlfriend?" Amelia asked.

"No." Matthew found the question odd but answered truthfully.

Amelia's eyes glimmered mischievously. "Then how about you date me?"

Lila almost groaned when she heard this. She wondered how to stop Amelia from ruining her budding relationship.

Then she heard Matthew's rejection. "No way. Idols aren't allowed to date, and more importantly, I don't even like you."

Seeing Amelia's frown, he quickly explained, "I mean, not in that way..."

"Get lost! Do you think I'm dumb?" Amelia straightened up and walked away. Matthew was confused as he watched her leave. Did he just make her mad?

Later, he went to find Michael during a break. "Michael, how do you cheer up a girl?"

Michael nearly choked on his tea. "You're still young. Why are you asking about relationships already? No way. Idols can't date, and getting into a relationship too early is a no-go!"

"No, that's not it." Matthew waved his hands in denial. "I said something wrong this morning and upset Amelia. I just want to apologize."

Before Michael could respond, Teddy suddenly popped in. "I heard you're trying to apologize to a girl. Now that is my specialty!"

Just then, Lila walked in and overheard him. She immediately grabbed him by the collar.

"Don't you dare use whatever you learned from that scam!"

"It's not a scam," Teddy said mysteriously. "Let me show you the gift I just bought."

Lila had a bad feeling.

But Matthew and Michael were curious, so they leaned in excitedly.

"Hold on." Teddy grinned mysteriously.

Then, he pulled out a small box from his bag. Lila had a sinking feeling. She already knew what it was.

Before Lila could tell him to return it, Matthew and Michael gasped in admiration. "Wow!"

Lila was shocked. She looked at them carefully, confirming that their reactions weren't fake.

She opened her mouth, hesitated, then closed it again.

Teddy smugly held the gift up to her. "Isn't it nice?"

Lila was speechless. She turned Michael and Matthew, still skept you

They both answered in unison, "Doesn't it?"

Lila was flabbergasted and rubbed her temples. "Give me a moment."

She took a deep breath and then looked at the three of them. "Is this what you consider nice?"

The three of them pondered her words and exchanged glances.

Teddy spoke, "Waite sec net

"Aren't you shocked by this?"

Lila was at a loss for words. "I am shocked. But this thing..."
