too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 492

Lila was chatting with Amelia on the other side.

"So, Morgan Group hasn't fully recovered yet, but things are slowly getting back on track." Amelia mused, then sighed. "Uncle Kieran really is something else."

Lila wasn't entirely sure either. "I think so... I just don't know how long it'll take."

"Don't worry about it. If he was confident enough to turn down an arranged marriage, then he must have a plan. Speaking of which, what do you think about Faith?"

Lila was perplexed. "What do you mean?"

"The whole marriage thing. Do you think she'll actually give up?"

"She's the type who carries herself with a sense of superiority, so she doesn't strike me as someone who would cling desperately. Things have already reached this point—I doubt there'll be any more trouble from her."

Amelia hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you sure you're not being a little too naive?"

Before Lila could respond, she suddenly noticed something. "Wait... where did my ribbon go?" she asked, glancing down at her sleeve, which now looked oddly incomplete.

Amelia was easily sidetracked. "Huh? I think it was still there earlier. Maybe it got caught on something when you went to the bathroom."

"It's fine. It wasn't that important anyway." As soon as her words fell, a shadow fell over Lila. She looked up and met Kieran's gaze.

He had a few drinks and had a slight buzz. He reached out, cupping her cheek gently. "It's late. We should head home."

Amelia checked the time. "It's barely 8:30 pm. That's not late at all! Stay a bit longer."

Kieran chuckled. "We have plans for later."

"What plans?" Amelia asked.
