"I know that you resigned from Nova Group for a reason-was it because you wanted to see me beg or to prove that Xavier was on your side?"

Sarah had had no reason to resign from the Nova Group in the first place. Therefore, Lily wasn't sure if Xavier was playing along with Sarah to embarrass her or if he was simply so oblivious to Sarah's tricks.
