Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 410

Jasmine shook her head helplessly at Lila's nonsensical reasoning but couldn't suppress a soft chuckle when her gaze shifted to Kieran, fully focused on driving.

Her eyes drifted to the wedding ring on Lila's left hand. "That's a unique ring. Compared to it, the bracelet I bought feels a bit plain."

She reached into her bag and pulled out a red velvet box. Opening it, she revealed a pink-toned bracelet.

The diamonds, in a soft blush shade reminiscent of peach blossoms, sparkled faintly even without direct light, like tiny stars scattered across a night sky.

"It's beautiful!" Lila exclaimed.

She reached out and touched the bracelet. The diamonds had a warm, natural texture that hinted at their quality-clearly made of high-grade diamond.

Jasmine smiled faintly, her gaze naturally falling to the gold bracelet adorning Lila's wrist.

"I thought I put in enough effort, but compared to Kieran, I guess I still fell short."

The gold bracelet was one Jasmine had seen years ago at an auction. An exquisite artifact from the 17th century, it was crafted from pure, flawless material. The starting bid alone had been 50 million.

She had no idea how much Kieran had ultimately paid for it, but it must have been substantial.

Lila, oblivious to Jasmine's subtle gaze, didn't catch her meaning right away.

Without a second thought, she casually pushed up her sleeve and slipped off the gold bracelet.

Jasmine glanced at Kieran. His fingers tapped the steering wheel twice, the small gesture made Jasmine laugh quietly to herself.
