too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 458

Lila's heart ached. "I'm going to find them."

Nicole panicked and grabbed her before she could take another step. After holding everything in for days, her emotions finally broke free.

She pulled Lila into a tight embrace and sobbed uncontrollably.

"Lila, you can't go! If you disappear too, I don't know how I'll go on! It's all my fault, I never should have let Kieran go after Alfredo. This is all my fault!"

Tears streamed down her face, her body trembling violently.

She felt like the Morgans' greatest sinner.

Lila steadied her, helping her sit down, but the weight in her chest only grew heavier. Her eyes lingered on Kieran's last message from two days ago.

What should she do?

For the first time, doubt crept into her mind. Had she made a mistake?

If she had never insisted on investigating her parent's case, would Morgan Group have remained stable?

Would Falkoria's investors have dared to make a move against them?

A suffocating pressure settled over her chest, making it hard to breathe.

Nicole had been shouldering this burden alone, afraid to worry the rest of the family. If Lila hadn't returned when she did, Nicole would have continued enduring this pain in silence.

The thought made Lila's heart ache even more.

That afternoon, after days of silence, Nicole's phone finally rang.

At the same time, Lila's phone chimed.

They rushed to check their screens.

Nicole's call was from Alfredo.

Lila's breath hitched as her gaze landed on a message from Kieran. Emotion surged through her, her nose stinging, tears threatening to fall.

The best news was that they were alive.
