Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

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.

After she composed herself, she left Gordon's office to look for Alfredo.

Alfredo hadn't even opened the vacuum flask. Lila slowly opened the flask and took out all the dishes within it.

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.
