Emilia didn't know how to react to whatever Lith was doing to her. But since he didn't cross any lines, she didn't say anything to him and simply waited to see what he was going to do.
Lith, who was holding Emilia's face, said in a serious tone, "I know that you're hurt and I also know that it's because of me. But please understand, that situation wasn't in anyone's control. I know your feelings were hurt and I am genuinely very sorry for that. But I promise, such a thing won't happen again."
Lith kissed Emilia's forehead after saying so and hugged her back again. He placed his chin on her head and had her face rest on his chest again. Lith, this time instead of patting her back, caressed her hair as she lay in his embrace.
Emilia's face was now flushed and her cheeks had a deeper shade of red on them, showing how embarrassed she was right now.
