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

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, the three people in the living hall raised their heads and looked over.

Since Stefan was the eldest, Lila greeted him first. "Granduncle Stefan, good afternoon."

As the head of the clan for many years, Stefan was dignified. Not young people could handle the pressure of his intense gaze. He was similar to Kieran in this

sense.

Lila didn't find Stefan terrifying. She nodded at him and scanned him from head to toe. She didn't have a big reaction, which he found surprising.

Lila turned to look at Faith calmly. "Good afternoon, Ms. Moore."

Faith had a cool demeanor, her behavior elegant and decent. Lila found Faith to be similar to Ruby and Vince. Their elders all taught them manners and were strict with them.

In comparison, Noah, Lila, and Amelia didn't seem to be raised by wealthy families as they were all casual.noveldrama

Faith nodded at Lila. "Good afternoon, you can just call me Faith. If you don't mind, I'll address you by your name as well. Is that alright?"

Before Lila could respond, Stefan said, "You're from the same generation. What's wrong with addressing each other by your names?"

Naturally, Lila could tell Stefan didn't like her. It was just that she didn't know the reason. However, as he was an elder and might be able to help Morgan Group overcome the crisis, she didn't want to offend him.

She nodded lightly. "Ms. Moore, just address me however you like."

Nicole smiled and mediated the situation. "Lila, you two are from the same generation and are around the same age. When you're free, you can even hang out together."

It was just a formality. Of course, Lila understood, so she nodded. She wasn't familiar with Faith. The latter probably wouldn't call her to hang out either.

Before Lila finished thinking, Faith chuckled. "Sure. I heard the living environment here is good. I want to look around the place. I wonder when Lila is free. Can you show me around the place?"

There was anticipation in Faith's gaze. Upon noticing that, Lila was surprised, but she didn't show it. "I

don't think I can for the next few 't days. She explained, "The company has just arranged a job for me."

As Lila was looking at Faith, she didn't notice Nicole letting out a sigh of relief.

"I see." Faith sounded sad. "Mr. Morgan and I will be here for a long time. Do you not have time for the next 15 days?"

Stefan narrowed his eyes. "What job do you have? How long have you been married to Kieran? Do you still not have a child?"

He asked three questions at once. They were normal questions, but Lila felt uncomfortable. Then, Nicole

held Lila's hand with a smile and

said proudly, "Lila is currentlynet

director. She won an award in the

past. At the end of this year, a TV series she directed will be

broadcasted.

"She's working as a manager as well. There are two artists under her, and she's doing a great job. Last year, the artists were trending because of their acting skills. Am I right, Lila?

"As for having a child, there's no need to rush. They're still young. Now, young people want to spend a few years together without a child. They'll only want a child when they're ready."

Nicole responded on behalf of Lila, and Stefan didn't seem satisfied. "A director and a manager?" He sounded displeased.

Such careers weren't considered normal in wealthy families. Faith was surprised, but she didn't say anything.

Lila then answered, "That's right. I'm a director."

"How can this career benefit Kieran?" Stefan asked calmly.

However, this time, Lila could clearly sense that Stefan was looking down on her. It wasn't hatred. He just had a superiority complex as a member of high society and was looking down on commoners.

"Uncle Stefan, that's wrong." Nicole frowned. "It's great that she has her own hobbies and interests as long as she likes them. There's no need for them to benefit Kieran.

"If Lila is happy, Kieran will be happy for her. Isn't that great? If there are too many benefits involved in relationships, it will be hard to be happy in such marriages."
