Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 323

Lila pursed her lips. Not only did she not want to help Shannon, but even if she did, it would be useless. No one could change the decisions Kieran made.

Moreover, she recalled what he had said to her the night before, his cryptic warning, which seemed to be a reminder for her. She shouldn't get involved in these matters.

Michael watched her remain silent for a moment before speaking again. "Lila, I beg you, just this once. I promise Shannon will never appear in front of you again."

"No one can change what Uncle Kieran wants to do."

Upon seeing her shake her head, he quickly added, "Maybe others can't do it, but you certainly can."

It was only then that he realized how forceful he was being.

Lila looked at him. The celebrity who once hid snacks from his manager now looked worn out, with his head lowered in a humble posture. The youthful energy he once had had been almost completely worn down by the constant pressure.

Michael gave a bitter smile. "If you're unwilling, I won't blame you. After all, you're the victim, and Shannon deserves her punishment."

He nodded slightly, preparing to leave.
