The moment the Scandinavian Airlines plane ascended into the sky, Lily, who was far away in Japan, finally exhaled in relief.
When Maria disclosed Charlie's suspicions about Master Geoffrey to Lily, she felt a wave of confusion wash over her.
If Charlie chose to investigate Master Geoffrey further, there was no doubt that, to avoid exposure, Master Geoffrey would need to vanish from the world, much like Stephen Thompson had. However, despite Geoffrey's compliance with her wishes, fundamentally, he was not her subordinate.
Lily couldn't bring herself to ask Master Geoffrey to make such a significant sacrifice on her behalf.
Fortunately, Maria returned with encouraging news. With her exceptional wisdom and clear logic, Maria managed to convince Charlie, steering him away from his obsession with immediately finding Claire.
