Third Person's POV
Lara had to tell an untruth to Mara in order to keep Seojun safe. She does not wish for him to go through all the hardship that he felt back when Mara left him one more time. She is aware of how much it was so difficult for him to heal from that pain because she has been with him through all that time.
On the other hand, the celebration for Seokmin and Jisoo's wedding is taking place and everyone is there to have a good time with them. Mara sits in one corner while his husband joins the games with the boys. She has been making an effort not to show to anybody that she has been troubled about what went on the previous night.
More to that, she does not want Jihyo to notice because he is probably going to attack her with questions, and she does not want him to find out.
