Respuesta :

August immediately recognized Lily because she knows Lily’s mother. August already knew the moment Lily arrived that she was Deborah’s daughter. August was Deborah’s caretaker when Deborah was still young and also their housekeeper in Richmond, that’s why she knew about Lily.

 

August did not push Lily to tell her the truth because she knew that Lily needed more time to gather her thoughts together. Lily’s life seemed to be in a mess, that’s why August waited for the perfect timing to tell her of the past and explain it to her.
