Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 95

Lila raised her hand to press her forehead. "I'm really tired and need to rest."

After a moment, she continued, "Dorian, you've invested a lot of resources and effort into Zara these past two years, haven't you?"

Dorian looked puzzled, not understanding why she would suddenly bring Zara up. It felt like Zara had become an insurmountable barrier between them.

"Why is it that you go all out for someone you haven't seen in years, yet all you say is 'please forgive me' every day when it comes to me? You broke your promise, so why should I forgive you?"

Lila intended to highlight the disparity in his treatment of them, questioning how he could still claim to love her.

Lila lowered her gaze, her long eyelashes shadowing a clear expression of mockery. "I've long been disappointed in you and won't look back."

Dorian froze for a moment. His confusion dissipated and was soon replaced by shock. Did she really think he was unwilling to spend money on her?

"Lila, all my money is yours if you just forgive me. Whatever you want, I'll buy it for you."
