Naturally, following the party that night, the next day, Lema City was filled with buzzing talk.
Everyone knew about a woman named Lilian Meurer, who arrived late at the party, but managed to capture the attention of Kai Piers, drawing him away from the rest of the party.
Furthermore, the two of them left the gathering first.
What this implies... is self-explanatory.
As Lilian walked downstairs to the dining room, she immediately noticed that the atmosphere at home was off but she knew exactly what was going on.
Upon seeing her, her father was overjoyed but managed to suppress his excitement and asked, "Lilian, this... The rumors going around, are they all true?"
Mother Meurer added, "Yes, I asked you when you came home last night, and you were all secretive."
"Mom, everything they're saying, it's all true."
Father and Mother Meurer shared a look, but before they could say anything, Lilian continued.
