Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 384

"Liam Grayson, tell me the truth. What happened to your brother? Is there news about him? He's still alive, isn't he?"

Her questions tumbled out in a rush, and in her haste, she voiced the one hope she had kept buried deep in her heart.

She needed Matthew to be alive.

She just wanted him to be alive and well.

All this time, Liliana had been terrified, resisting the reality of Matthew's death.

Deep down, she was horrified by the thought that someone might actually find proof—proof that he was gone.

That he was truly gone.

Seeing her agitation, Liam quickly pulled her into a hug, resting his chin on the crown of her soft, dark hair. He spoke in a low, soothing tone, his voice full of helpless heartache. "Liliana, this is why I was hesitating, why I didn't know if I should tell you the truth."

He paused, then took her by her fragile shoulders, gently turning her to face him directly.

Liam looked down at her, his expression more serious and solemn than she had ever seen. He spoke slowly, enunciating each word. "Liliana..."

Liliana's eyes were red, her face ashen. Her chest heaved as she struggled to breathe.

She took a deep breath, fighting to calm herself, but her slender shoulders wouldn't stop trembling.

Liam watched her, his heart aching. After a long moment of hesitation, he finally spoke, his voice hoarse. "Liliana, remember what I kept telling you."

"No matter how painful and hopeless the past is, we have to learn to let it go and look forward."

"We can't remain trapped in our grief, refusing to move on. Looking ahead, starting a new life—that's the best way to honor everything that has happened."

Liam was still trying to reason with her, to be patient.

But Liliana's gaze was distant. Her long, thick lashes fluttered, but her expression was dazed, as if her soul had already left her body.

Liam fell silent for a moment, his brow tightening. He had no idea if any of his words had gotten through to her.
