There, Lila continues to lie about knowing Ladybug and even says she's a descendant from a former superhero named Volpina. After Ladybug confronts her, she runs off crying and humiliated.

Season Three
In, Lila gets the whole class to switch seats by lying about a hearing problem which results in her sitting next to Adrien. Later, she runs into Adrien in the locker room and asks him to teach her piano. But then Adrien confronts Lila by saying he was upset about the fact that she lied about personally knowing Ladybug. Lila argues by saying Ladybug is the real liar with Adrien responding by encouraging her to be more honest. When Lila becomes akumatized into Chameleon, her first victim was Adrien. She returns back to the locker room and apologizes for getting mad. She then kisses him on the cheek which makes her transform into Adrien with the real Adrien falling into a short sleep. She hides his body in a locker so no one suspects anything. At the end of the episode, right before Marinette is going to expose Lila again, Adrien stops her by saying he knows she's a liar and that they shouldn't expose her because it'll only make her upset.

In, Lila asks Adrien to help her with homework, which he agrees to, and says they should do it in his house. Adrien knows his father wouldn't agree but Lila manipulates her way in by lying to Nathalie about Adrien's grades decreasing and that she's here to help. Before she leaves, she takes a selfie of her kissing Adrien on the cheek and sends it to all her contacts, including Marinette and Kagami. This results in Kagami being akumatized into Oni-Chan, a villain who promises to protect Adrien and is able to track down Lila and tell whether or not she's lying. The next day at school, Lila again asks for help on homework which Adrien declines as he has fencing class. He tells Lila that they can remain friends if she won't hurt the ones he love since Nathalie and his bodyguard got into a lot of trouble yesterday.

Miraculous New York
In the, Miss Bustier's class get excited about going to New York for French-American Friendship Week. However, Adrien sadly tells his classmates that he can't go because his father wouldn't approve. Lila says she can't as well and tells Adrien that they should hang out over the week. When Marinette hears this, she stands up and announces to the whole class that she will do everything to convince Adrien's father to allow him to go. This makes Lila angry as now she can't spend time with Adrien alone.

Season Five
Lila begins working for Gabriel Agreste, ensuring that Adrien is hanging out with the "right sort of people". This means keeping him away from Marinette Dupain-Cheng, and ensuring he upkeeps the Agreste brand. When Adrien asks to quit his modelling career, Gabriel acquiesces his request. However, he creates a 3D scan of Adrien, alongside a 3D scan of Lila. Gabriel uses these models in his new product, the Alliance ring. Lila and Adrien are the faces of Alliance, acting as personal assistants and companions to the ring wearers. By the middle of season 5, Adrien has ended his friendship with Lila off-screen.

In Revelation, Adrien stands by Marinette when she accuses Lila of being a pathological liar. While none of the other students believe her, Adrien insists that he's seen Lila's lies and manipulation for himself. He encourages Marinette to stand up to her, but this only backfires and causes the class to feel pity for Lila. Adrien later apologizes to Marinette for encouraging her to stand against Lila, acknowledging that someone like Lila knows how to manipulate any situation to her own betterment. Lila and Chloé are unanimously voted in as the new class representatives, which implies that Adrien either voted for them, or obtained from the vote entirely.

By the end of the season, Lila has left Collège Françoise Dupont and returned to a different life as a girl named "Cerise". She gains control of the Butterfly Miraculous in the finale, implying that she may be the next villain for Ladybug and Cat Noir.

Fanon
This ship is not popular in the Miraculous fandom with many people opposing it. Most people already dislike Lila, so they definitely don't like Adrien being around her. Many people speculate Lila forces or blackmails Adrien into doing things offscreen, which discomforts them and feel pity for Adrien. Despite the large number of people who strongly dislike this ship or prefer to have Lila with characters like Félix, Chloé, or trash. Liladrien still has a few loyal supports from those who want Lila to be redeemed, since she isn't very different from his childhood friend, Chloé Bourgeois. Who was close to being redeemed and there was a brief time in season three when Adrien did try to give Lila the benefit of the doubt, in hopes that showing her some kindness would help Lila to bring out an true nicer, honest side to her.
