Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Chapter 477

As the call connected, the heated passion in Kieran's gaze gradually faded as he listened to the speaker.

His voice was low, and Lila couldn't quite catch what Cole was saying, except for a few mentions of Falkoria.

She recalled that earlier that day, Kieran had been looking for a new way out. Falkoria had long been dominant in the West, and if they sanctioned Morgan Group's development, other smaller countries would likely follow suit with similar restrictions.

Though Lila didn't fully understand the business world, she knew that cooperation with Falkoria was crucial to secure a foothold in the international market.

After ending the call, Kieran noticed her concern. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

"Sorry, Lila. I won't be able to stay with you tonight. There are some things I need to handle. Go to bed early; don't wait for me."

Lila understood his priorities. "Drive safe."

Kieran nodded. He grabbed a fresh shirt, picked up his suit jacket, and headed out.

Listening to the sound of his car starting outside, Lila sat there for a while before getting up to wash up.

That night, Kieran did not return home.

The next morning, Lila got up and splashed cold water on her face to wake herself up. She told herself to give Kieran more time; to believe in him.
