Chapter 399

Lila's eyes were pleading with Gordon with a burning passion.

Gordon moved his lips. Then, he let out a long sigh. "Lila, don't be stupid. Aren't you doing well in life now? I bet your parents only wanted you to be happy."

Taking a step back, he excused himself. "I'll have to leave for an event. Come to me again if you need any help."

Watching him hurry out of the office, she flashed a bitter smile. She knew Gordon would never tell her the truth. At the same time, she knew that her parents' deaths were suspicious.

Alfredo watched her work. After a while, he sighed. "Are you missing your parents? Back then..."

He stopped himself from speaking further. Patting Lila on the shoulder, he continued, "Lila, I know you have been struggling these years, but you're now married to Kieran. You could try for a child in two years. Even if you don't want a child, that's fine too.
