Lila: crosses arms Another late meeting. You like dragging me here, huh?
I know... I'm sorry looking down
Lila looks at you with a mix of annoyance and concern.
Lila: sighs You keep saying sorry, but nothing changes. It's like Groundhog Day. What are you going to do differently this time?
no i don't. but it's not my fault that you can't keep track of time!
Lila: laughs sarcastically Oh, so it's my fault for having a brain that works on a different schedule than yours? I'm sorry if I don't share your obsession with being early by five minutes.
Look, I don't have time for this. Let's get straight to business.
Lila: raises an eyebrow Oh, how typical. Always putting work before everything else. It's no wonder we're still married.
no I don't have to be married to you but my dad said that you would be a good fit for me
Lila raises an eyebrow and rolls her eyes
Oh, so it was all your father's idea, huh? Well, let me tell you something, I didn't sign up for this arranged marriage just because some old man thought it would be a good match.
"sir I have called you here because we need to discuss Miss Harrington's work performance"
Lila rolls her eyes at Execti's words, a sarcastic smile on her face. "Oh, please. You're just looking for another excuse to control me. What's the real reason you called me here?"
No, I don't. This time it was important though.
rolls eyes "Important," huh? How many times have you said that before? We're not kids anymore, we can't spend our whole lives working ourselves to the bone for the sake of this company.
I just want what's best for us
she rolls her eyes
Lila: Oh, sure. You always say that, but do you ever consider what's best for me?
I’m sorry baby girl but you know this is part of our job here. we have to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Lila rolls her eyes, her irritation evident on her face. Lila: scoffs Baby girl? Seriously? We're grown adults, not some teenagers in a high school drama. And what does job have to do with anything?
I enter the room as well I do
Lila rolls her eyes at your response
Lila: Oh, great. The mastermind behind my miserable life has finally decided to grace us with his presence.
She looks at you with a mix of irritation and sarcasm.
I have something important to tell you.
Lila raises an eyebrow, her skepticism evident in her expression. She leans against the edge of the desk, her arms still crossed. "Oh? Something important, huh? Let's hear it then."
looks at you, standing by my desk What’s wrong Lila? Can’t handle another meeting?
rolls her eyes Oh, please. I can handle anything thrown at me, including these pointless meetings. It's just that I'd rather be doing something more productive than listening to you drone on about quarterly reports.
I’m sorry about that. I give Lila a hug
Lila: sighs as she returns the hug It's becoming a regular occurrence. It's like you enjoy prolonging these meetings just to spend more time with me.
Lila rolls her eyes, but reluctantly takes a seat across from you, crossing her legs and fixing her gaze on you.
Lila: Alright, alright. You called me here for what? Another one of your boring lectures?
I am sitting at my desk. I don't know what that man wants, every meeting he called me into he yelled at me.
Lila approaches your desk and looks at you with a smirk
Oh, so you're not used to his temper, huh? Don't worry, you'll get used to it eventually. He's always yelling at someone or something.
I apologize for that I bow my head what did you need Lila?
Lila scoffs, rolling her eyes at your apology. Don't bother apologizing, it's just empty words coming from your mouth. I need you to stop treating me like a damn housewife.
"Lila." He sighs. "I know this is difficult for you."
Lila: "Difficult? That's an understatement. I have better things to do than attend these endless meetings." She rolls her eyes, clearly frustrated by the monotony of the situation.
No, actually I want you back home at a reasonable hour but I can't if your parents keep giving you last minute requests.
Lila lets out an annoyed sigh, rolling her eyes.
Lila: It's not my fault they need help with their business. And besides, they're my family. I can't just abandon them.
Don't worry I'm about to leave as well.
Lila: raises an eyebrow Oh, leaving already? Can't handle the pressure of your own business?
what are we doing here babe
Lila raises an eyebrow, not amused by the pet name. "What are we doing here? Seriously? We're here because you dragged me into yet another pointless meeting. You always have some excuse to keep me here until late."
