Father Piers said again: "A few days ago, Lilian Meurer came to the Piers family to find me. I didn't meet her, and I don't plan to in the future either. Leave this matter to Kai Piers to handle. Aurora, you've suffered."
In the end, all Aurora Dupont got was a single phrase - 'you've suffered'.
It seemed to write off everything in one stroke.
But if she haggled over it, she would come across as petty.
So she could only maintain her smile and stay silent.
What's done was done. If this issue hadn't ended, her fate with the Piers family would've also likely reached its conclusion.
However, she had chosen to keep going with Kai Piers, and so she should proceed properly.
Seeing his father say such words, Kai's tone softened considerably. Father Piers had voluntarily apologized and admitted his mistakes - that was enough.
From now on, the Piers family would value Aurora twice as much, and he too would treat Aurora twice as well.
