Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 414

The gift was already expensive enough, but Lila hadn't prepared anything in return, leaving her feeling a bit flustered.

Bryce got up and said, "Just keep it. On the first day of New Year, the Clemence family will visit us. You can prepare a gift for her then."

Lila nodded and passed the gift to Carol, who helped her put it upstairs. It was almost the New Year. Many guests came one after another. However, Lila still didn't like such an atmosphere.

"Lila," Bryce said.

With a smile, Jasmine teased, "Shouldn't you change the way you address her?"

Lila quickly waved her hands. "No need. We're used to this. I'll find it strange if he calls me differently now."

The few elders chuckled. They didn't really care about it. Bryce also smiled and said, "If you're tired, you can take a rest upstairs. It has been a long time since we last met. Could you tell me how you've been for the last six months?"

Lila nodded. She didn't notice Kieran's gaze. After she went upstairs, she didn't really talk a lot. Seeing that she was tired, Bryce told her to take a rest in her room.

Lila lay on the bed but felt restless. She couldn't fall asleep. She lay on the bed for a while before getting up and standing next to the window. She looked at the gazebo in the backyard. Ruby was sitting there.
