For Kai Piers, it is a comfort.
He was too tired and in too much pain.
This aimless, late, and infatuated waiting, had he found someone to whose feelings he could entrust, Kai Piers thought, he would plunge in just as he was doing now, with no turning back.
"Lilian Meurer, Lilian Meurer... What a nice name. It really is a splendid name," Kai Piers said, and even laughed, a glint in his eyes as he smiled.
He was already stunningly handsome, and this earnest laughter only made him appear even more tender and attentive.
Lilian Meurer knew that if she had only fallen for him in the past four years, then now she was utterly consumed.
The entire reception hall of the Piers family was very quiet. Everyone was watching these two people.
Watching Kai Piers' disbelief turn into ecstatic joy, from ecstatic joy to a measured smile - all this process was seen and remembered by those present.
Who was this Lilian Meurer, really?
