He doesn't forgive her, so he pretends not to recognize her on purpose.
He has someone he likes, someone he can date, so probably for the rest of her life, she has no chance, right?
But precisely because of this, she wants to selfishly embrace him one last time.
When he calls her "Lily," it feels like returning to four years ago.
At that time, they had not yet separated, he had not deliberately pretended not to know her, and she had not changed her name to Arianna Brooks.
They were each other's only one, he was the husband she loved most, and she, she was the wife he loved most.
Lily knows everything can't go back to the way it was.
But it doesn't matter if it can't go back.
She agrees to give up, and she has decided to give up...
But, she misses him too much, just too much... Whenever she thinks of him, her heart silently aches.
Let it be so...
Just indulge for the last time.
Tears slide down from the corners of her eyes.
Quietly, she tells herself.
