Bab 328: Chapter 328 Modern Problems Require Modern Solutions. 

Kat moved before she really started to think properly. She was sitting next to Lily already, with Vivian at the head of the table on Kat's right, Lily on her left, Sylvie across from her, and Callisto next to Sylvie, Kat moved completely without thinking and wrapped Lily up in a big hug as she finished her speech.

It was a good thing too, because Kat started to feel her shoulder getting wet as Lily trembled in her arms. *Why is she crying? Why am I holding her? How did we get here? That speech was amazing. I don't know that I've ever seen Lily stand up for herself so properly. She had no hesitation there. Sure she's defended me against her parents before… but I… I don't think she's ever defended HERSELF when confronted by her parents before.*
