too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 296

Lila hugged her blanket happily while rolling around the bed twice in a row. She didn't seek Kieran out just to thank him in person. Instead, she chose to wear one of the long-sleeved shirts the next day.

She was meant to work as a photographer at Terry's event. It'd be inconvenient for her to do so in a dress.

"Do I look good, Uncle Kieran?" Lila called out right after she descended the stairs.

Kieran's gaze fell on her.

Over the years, he was the one filtering through most, if not all, of Lila's new clothes before presenting them to her. As time ticked past, all he had to do was glance at the clothes to know whether or not she looked good in them.

When Lila first joined the Morgan family, she was the only girl in her generation. Besides, she was the silent type who rarely spoke up.

Both Amelie and Nicole were worried that they might do a bad job of taking care of Lila. Whenever they prepared clothes for her, they tended to spend too much time picking them out for her. The longer they were at it, the harder it was for them to make up their minds.

So, Kieran helped them out by picking two outfits for Lila. After she tried on them, Amelie and Nicole were very satisfied with the results.

Since then, Amelie had let Kieran be in charge of picking out new clothes for Lila every year.

It was a good thing that Kieran didn't view the task as a troublesome one. In fact, he had a feeling that he was playing a real-life dress-up game this whole time.

Maybe it was because of the fact that Lila was an extremely beautiful girl back then. She looked gorgeous in everything she wore.

Kieran smiled. "The clothes suit you."

"Thank you, Uncle Kieran!" Lila smiled happily.

"I'll give you a ride to the event location after breakfast."

"It's fine." Lila took a seat across from Kieran. "The location's quite close to our place. I can just drive there.

"By the way, why is it that I don't see Noah at all these days? Is he participating in a competition abroad again?"

Kieran looked up from his plate. "He went to visit a friend."

Lila looked confused. Did Noah make plans to hang out with his friend?

Wait, he had another person whom he could call his best friend other than his teammates?

If not for the fact that Terry didn't have a choice, he'd never want to let Pierre and Lila meet up again.

She just nodded mutely.

While Terry was a reliable man who looked flippant and wishy-washy on the outside, Pierre was the complete opposite. He might look like a nice guy, but he was secretly a flirtatious playboy.

Pierre's family background was superior to Terry's. Moreover, he was a gorgeous man, too. He often had female companions hanging off his arm since high school.

When he was a university student, he decided to join the entertainment industry with the help of his family's resources. His family was loaded, anyway. Besides, his grandfather, Martin Locke, spoiled him to no end.

After joining the entertainment industry, Pierre's romantic scandals were churned out continuously. But his fans loved his Casanova persona thanks to his looks.

In fact, they all defended him, saying that he had already made it clear that he was a jerk from the start. Apparently to them, he was a lot better than jerks who put on gentlemanly facades.

Lila would always agree to disagree with Pierre's fans. Truthfully speaking, there was another reason as to why she disliked Pierre greatly.

While her mind was still whirring with thoughts, Terry led her into the elevator. The moment they stepped out on the designated floor, they happened to notice Pierre.
