Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

"Alright, I'm heading out."

Lila's bright, cheerful smile made it impossible for Kieran's expression not to soften.

When Kieran arrived at the office, Cole came in as usual to report on work.

The moment he stepped inside, he noticed a disposable cup on Kieran's desk, half-filled with water-and inside it was a single small flower.

Cole blinked.

He glanced at it again and again, curious, until Kieran's cold voice cut through the air. "Do you not have anything better to do?"

Cole instantly lost all curiosity and got straight to business.

Lila had been busy all morning when, as usual, Amelia showed up just in time for lunch.

"Ms. Joyce, wouldn't it be better to stay home and enjoy Cindy's cooking?"

Lila glanced at her, half amused, half helpless.

Amelia grabbed an apple from the desk and took a bite. "Eating alone is boring."

Lila snatched the apple back and placed it in front of her again. "At least eat something before lunch."
