Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 305

Kieran gazed at Lila, his eyes deep and unreadable. Her gaze flickered noticeably.

He thought he would not force her if she rejected him again. If she couldn't take that step, he would remove all the risks for her.

She bit her lip and lowered her gaze, staring at the partially eaten, perfectly round fried egg on her plate. Then, she took a deep breath as if gathering all her resolve and let out a muffled reply from deep within her chest. "Alright. I'll go with you."

Avoidance was never her style.

Kieran's fingers unconsciously tapped the tabletop, and for the first time, he was uncertain about his feelings. Was it good or bad to force her to confront those unpleasant memories? The usually strategic man found himself at a loss.

She silently finished her meal, then declined his offer to send her back to the Morgan residence.

"I'll go back on my own. I'll stay there for the next few days." She paused, forcing a smile. "I'll return Saturday afternoon and wait for you at Evergreen Heights."

After that, she picked up the car keys and left without waiting for Kieran's response. Once she was back at the Morgan residence, she took a moment to adjust her emotions before going in to spend time with the elders.

Lila chatted with the elders, which helped her temporarily forget the troubling matters. But at night, the issues surged like a tidal wave, slowly drowning
