Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Stefan glanced at Faith, then at Kieran, before finally settling his gaze on Lila. "Alright. You young people are all full of ideas. I can't control you. Do whatever you want."

Lila frowned, puzzled. A bet? And then what? What did he mean by doing whatever they wanted?

Seeing her confusion, Faith stepped closer to them. "The terms of my bet were that if I won, Mr. Stefan would represent the Morgan family in negotiations with the Moore family, persuading them to help reconnect Morgan Group's severed international supply chains.

"Even though I've been managing Moore Group, the authority still rests with the family."

Kieran looked at her. "You want control of Moore Group?"

"That would be ideal. If not, then I'll leave and start my own business. All I ask is that I have your support when the time comes." Her gaze remained firm. "Morgan Group and Moore Group working together will require major media coverage. I will, of course, represent Moore Group.

"But given how stubborn the Moore family is, they'll still push for a marriage alliance. So I've thought it through. If I give them even the slightest indication that it's possible, they'll be willing to invest more money."

Kieran chuckled. "I've said this before. I refuse any collaboration that involves personal feelings. Whether it's a real marriage, a fake one, or even a mere suggestion of it, I won't entertain any of it."

Lila looked up at him, emotions swirling in her mind. It was impossible to describe how she felt at that moment.
