The next morning, Liszt, with slightly dim undereye circles barely visible, had already packed his luggage.
And he enjoyed a breakfast in his room—a spread of bread, fried eggs, pastries, jam, milk, honey, and coffee.
After Levis and Li Vera had also packed up, the three siblings prepared to bid farewell to the Marquis. The Marquis, having risen early and seated in his wheelchair, was writing something.
"Did you sleep well?" the Marquis stopped writing, lifted his head, and looked at the three tall siblings, "I heard you all enjoyed last night's ball immensely."
Levis replied with a smile, "A very comfortable evening, Grandfather. The ball hosted by our cousin was delightful, and we met many nobles and fine ladies, some of whom I was quite taken with."
"That's good, while you're young, follow your heart and take action."
