too late for a second chance novel (Lila and Dorian) novel Chapter 314

"The basement..." Vivian struggled to speak, "Left side of the basement."

She realized that Kieran really wanted to kill her. As soon as she finished speaking, Kieran roughly shoved her away, a look of disgust flashing in his eyes. Killing her would certainly soil his hands.

She bent over, struggling to breathe. "You didn't alert anyone at the party... because you're afraid of others seeing Lila lose her reputation, right?"

Seeing him leave without a word, she mustered all her strength to shout, "Don't you care?"

However, he didn't turn back, leaving swiftly.

Lila had only taken a small sip of the wine. She thought that even if spiked, a small amount should last until Amelia returned, but she never expected that a little sip would make her feel dizzy.

She leaned on the table and tried to call for help, but she couldn't. Suddenly, she looked up and saw a figure before her. The shadows overlapped, but she could only make out the pair of eyes—those devilish eyes that had once haunted her dreams.

"You..."

Pierre looked down at her with an air of superiority, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. He raised a hand and gently pinched her soft cheek, his smile widening in satisfaction.

"Mm. The sensation is even better than I imagined."

Lila felt disgusted, wanting to vomit, but she couldn't even do that. She couldn't even raise a hand to block his touch. Then, everything went black, and she collapsed to the floor.

When she regained consciousness, she was awoken by a burning sensation. The room was stark, with large white walls and no windows, resembling a basement. The harsh overhead light was blinding.

She squinted, trying to move, only to realize her hands and feet were bound.
