Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 280

Albert paused briefly before speaking, "It doesn't matter what the outsiders have to say. It's enough if the children are sincere. Moreover, did you think the Morgan and Bolton families would care about public opinion with our statuses?"

Looking at Kieran's cold expression, Nicole could tell Albert had misspoken.

As the only person in the family who knew his true feelings, she smiled and said, "Mr. Bolton Senior, as you mentioned, both our families are at their current statuses. What we should care about now is the children's happiness.

"Michael is a good child, but he and Lila are not in love with each other."

"Even without Lila and Kieran's wedding, they should first get to know each other before we can discuss their marriage. Don't you think so?"

She provided a way out, and naturally, Albert had no reason to argue.

He laughed and replied, "I'm just anxious. I liked Lila the moment I laid eyes on her. I badly want her as a daughter-in-law."

He said, "Shannon, you and Michael haven't visited in a while, so why don't you chat with Grandma Amelie for a bit?"
