Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 253

Shannon bit her lip as Kieran's gaze immediately softened when he looked at Lila.

Lila was still playing the game.

Because she kept failing the level, her brows furrowed unconsciously. Noticing that Kieran was looking at her, she raised her eyes.

For a moment, she forgot that Kieran was talking about work. She asked, "Uncle Kieran, can you help me with this level? I'm always just a few points away from passing it."

She was playing a card game. Despite following the mechanics and strategy, she couldn't win.

She had restarted the game over ten times and still hadn't passed.

Kieran bent down and pointed at one of the character cards on the screen. "Play this card first. He's of the wind element and can increase the entire team's attack by 20%.

"Then play this single-target damage card to kill this monster first, so it doesn't give the enemies any buffs."

His voice was deep, and although he was talking about the game, his patient demeanor made it feel like he was answering an important question.

Lila followed his instructions and tried again. This time, she got closer, but the enemy still had too much health in the final round.

She glanced at Kieran. He smiled gently. "You can win this."

Shannon was biting her lips so hard they were nearly bleeding. She had never seen this gentle and patient side of Kieran.

But she still couldn't believe that he truly loved Lila.

She had already asked around and found out that it was Amelie who liked Lila. Shannon thought that Lila was quite the schemer, coaxing the elder into her favor. Kieran's and Lila's marriage was definitely something that Amelie had insisted on.
