Richard was feeling a bit complicated after he overheard the conversation between Cristina and Lilia.
Although he was elated and relieved to hear that Lilia wasn't forcing herself to be with him, Cristina's words made him realize that he was taking Lilia's safety for granted.
He always thinks of Lilia as a strong person who can protect herself if the situation arises. However, he often forgets that there is someone who still looks at Lilia as a little girl.
Although Richard loves and cares about Lilia, he couldn't just tell her mother to stop worrying about the only family member she was left with.
'Should I ask her to stay back?' Although it would hurt Lilia…Richard knew that if he told her, she would not insist on coming.
With those complicated thoughts, Richard entered his room and found Emily standing there, arranging his clothes.
"Ah…hey." She waved at him awkwardly when she noticed his presence.
