too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian)

Upon hearing that, Alfredo, in a wheelchair, hurriedly brought Jasmine and three others to welcome Stefan.

Stefan, who got out of an expensive black MPV, looked around the age of

Frances. But his back was straight. He didn't seem old. In fact, he appeared to be healthier than a lot of young people.

A young woman got out from the other side. Because she was attending a funeral, she wore a black dress and pinned black flowers on her hair. Her expression was cold, and her actions were decent.

Alfredo nodded at Stefan. "Uncle Stefan."noveldrama

The other people greeted Stefan as well. Stefan looked at Alfredo, who was at the front and sitting in a wheelchair. "I received news that Frances had passed away, so I rushed over here.

"It has been so many years, but he's still so stubborn. Back then, to marry your mother, he left the family. Now, for her..."

The members of the Morgan family lowered their heads and didn't respond. The younger people didn't know the situation because Alfredo and Jasmine didn't want to bring up these matters.

For the past few years, the Morgan family had already separated from the clan. However, it was impolite not to inform them about a person's death.

Besides, the person in charge of the clan at the moment was Stefan, who helped Frances back then. In the clan, the Morgan family only respected Stefan.

Alfredo moved the wheelchair to make way for Stefan. He made a gesture and said, "Uncle Stefan, please enter."

Stefan looked around the place and asked, "Where's Kieran?"

"He has some matters to attend to at the company. He can't come over," Alfredo said gently.

"That's nonsense. What can be more important than an elder's passing?"

No one in the Morgan family spoke up. The company affairs were indeed not as important as Frances' death, but if Morgan Group collapsed, what would happen to the hundreds of thousands of employees?

These matters could be light or heavy. They didn't know how to comment on them either. Meanwhile, Stefan's expression turned colder.

A while later, Stefan waved at the woman in a black dress. "Ms. Moore, come here."

Upon hearing that name, Alfredo and Jasmine frowned. Was she a member of the Moore family from Luxford? Was it the Moore family that was on par with the Morgan clan?

Soon, Stefan's words proved their thoughts. "This is Faith Moore from the Moore family. I didn't come to Northridge this time only to attend Frances' funeral. I have other e matters to attend to, so she's here with me to gain experience.

The few of them greeted each other but didn't say anything else. They then entered the venue together. Stefan glanced at Lila. It was difficult to gauge his emotions. "Who is this?"

"She's Kieran's wife," Jasmine explained.

Lila nodded slightly at Stefan. She still couldn't read his expression. She could only sense his strange gaze. He didn't hate her, but he didn't like her either.

After Stefan and Faith finished their prayers, they left first. Lila, Noah, and Bryce stayed in the memorial hall.

Early morning the next day, they had to cremate Frances. Alfredo couldn't walk, and the members of the Morgan family unanimously let Lila decide whether or not they should put Frances' letter together with the urn. sŵnovel

Like before, Kieran held a black umbrella and stayed by Lila's side. When Stefan saw the scene, he frowned.

"How could a woman lead the funeral? Moreover, she's an outsider."

The members of the Morgan family raised their heads and looked at Stefan. They wanted to say something, but because he was older, they decided not to say anything. Only Kieran's attitude was firm.

With a cold expression, Kieran said, "She's my wife. She grew up under Mr. Morgan Senior's wings. Our family doesn't discriminate against genders. My wife deserves to lead the funeral."

Stefan narrowed his eyes. Meanwhile, Faith's eyes lit up when she heard that there was no discrimination against genders.

She tugged at Stefan's sleeve.

"These matters must have been discussed by the elders of the Morgan family and the others. M Morgan Senior likes her. His wishes are most important. We shouldn't intervene in these minor things."
