Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

The members of the Morgan family heard that and rushed over in a panic. Since Lila was the closest, she arrived first.

When Lila saw Frances lying on the bed peacefully, her knees felt weak. She covered her mouth and prevented herself from crying. The uneasiness she felt the day before took shape in this moment.

Kieran, who came over in a hurry, held Lila up. Meanwhile, Nicole's face was pale. She crouched next to the bed and held Frances' cold hand. She cried out in pain.

From Amelie's departure to Alfredo and his brother losing contact with each other to Frances' death, all the emotions bottled up inside Nicole exploded. She had always been calm, but she cried at this moment without caring about her appearance.

Alfredo looked at her silently. He was next to her sitting in a wheelchair, but he didn't dare to touch her. Like aged paper, corroded over the years, one touch would crumble it completely before it faded away with the wind.

"How can this be?" Lila grabbed Kieran's sleeve. Her voice was very shaky.

"I had already sensed that something was off last night. Why couldn't I accompany Grandpa a while longer? How could he abandon us? He said before that he would be by my side forever. If I put in more effort and begged him to accompany me more, would he not have left?"

Kieran pulled Lila into his embrace and closed his eyes. He was always calm, but at this time, his eyes turned red, and his voice was a bit shaky. "Lila, it isn't your fault. He just wants to accompany Grandma."
