Chapter 257

Kieran looked down at Lila, his gaze deep like an endless void, hiding emotions that were impossible to read.

Lila didn't know who the girl in Kieran's heart was and didn't have the right to ask.

But whoever she was, she shouldn't delay things between them.

Lila knew the best she could do was minimize the impact on Kieran.

Even if they got married, she would try to arrange as much work for herself over

the next year as possible to limit their time living together.

That way, explaining things to the other girl wouldn't be so difficult.

Their marriage would be nothing but a formality.

Kieran gently ruffled her soft hair.

Lila was sitting with her forehead resting against his body. It felt strange. Just a moment ago, she had felt like driftwood lost at sea.

Yet, with Kieran's comforting touch, she felt like she had found her place.

She only realized the change in her emotions afterward, catching her off guard.

It wasn't good to develop any sense of dependence.
