Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 87

Terry laughed in disbelief. He pointed at Dorian, then at Zara. "You two... are amazing, just... amazing!"

Dorian realized Terry had misunderstood and tried to clarify, "I have done nothing wrong to Lila. Zara has been getting a lot of negative press, which is mostly due to what I did. I was worried she'd spiral if she was left alone at home."

He would have been better off not explaining anything at all. Terry didn't even want to answer him after hearing that. He simply turned to leave.

Dorian wanted to add that he felt guilty for Zara and needed to make things right, but seeing Terry's disgusted look, he couldn't bring himself to say it out loud.
