MainNovelChapter 398 Alfredo felt glad that Lila no longer kept all her troubles to herself. Her past self wouldn't have confronted Gordon's assistant directly like she just did.
Under Kieran's influence, she had really changed.

Don't worry. I'll definitely teach my assistant a lesson for you." She nodded. Then, she asked Alfredo, "Uncle Alfredo, can I talk to Mr. Klprivately?" The two men seemed taken aback. That request immediately reminded them of her long-dead parents.
Clutching the vacuum flask, Alfredo replied warmly, "Go. I'll wait for you in my office." Gordon guided Lila into his office. He began, "I've been getting too busy over the years. I thought of visiting you a few times, but I didn't want to bring back the sad memories." Whether or not that was just pleasantries did not matter to Lila, who grunted.
Then, she asked, "Mr. Klime, the Morgan Group was involved in a core technology leak shortly after my parents passed away. Are these two issues related? "My parents didn't die in an accident. Someone tried to harm them. Is that true?" Her question wiped off the smile on Gordon's face. He wondered, "Do you suspect foul play in your parents' death?" She frowned at his response. Wasn't that the truth? She blurted out, "That's right. My parents left hin a hurry after they received a call. I remember Dad bringing his phone when he left, but his phone wasn't listed on the file at the police station.
"Their deaths were classified as sudden deaths, but the Morgan Group got into trouble right after that. The two events must have been connected!" Gordon wasn't smiling anymore. He let out a slow sigh. "Lila, have you been doing well at the Morgan family over these years?" Her frown remained. "I'm good. They're good to me." "I heard you recently married Kieran. Are you guys getting along well?" His questions made her furrow her brows, but she patiently answered, "We're doing well. Kieran's nice to me. Everyone in the Morgan family is nice to me." She thought, "The Morgans are my new family, and they're as important as my parents." Gordon nodded. He cast a scrutinizing look on her face. "If that's the case, why would you obsess over events from the past? "You must understand that knowing the truth might not bring you hs. It might even ruin your current life. In that case, do you still want to seek the truth?" She felt prickles of pain in her chest after what Gordon had said to her. Did that mean the Morgans were involved in her parents' death? Slowly, she clenched her fists and repeated her mantra in her mind.
Then, she clarified, "Uncle Alfredo will not hurt my parents. The truth might be hard to swallow, but can't possibly turn a blind eye if I suspect fou play behind my parents' death.
"Mr. Klime, I'm begging you to tellthe truth."

She hurriedly pleaded, "Mr. Klime, I just want to learn the truth th and make sure those responsible are arrested. An I wrong for wanting that?
"I don't need you to help me. Just tellthe truth. I can gather the m e evidence on my own, and I promise not to implicate you." Gordon felt sorry when Lila teared up in front of him.
She begged, "Mr. Klime, helpjust I m once, will you? I will acceptany conditions you set."
