Flora was smiling inwardly, looking at Noelle, who kept burying her face in her lap because she was too embarrassed to face anyone else.
At the same time, she didn't say anything, so Flora didn't know whether her presence would be useful or not.
It was probably because they had been together since childhood that the first person that came to Noelle's mind was her. That was why she was here. So Flora just stayed here for a while.
Fortunately, the help she was waiting for had arrived.
Nathan was approaching them slowly, making a small gesture to tell Flora that he would take over.
Flora glanced at Noelle one more time before leaving quietly.
Then Nathan sat down next to her. Unlike Brunhild, Noelle was the first one to speak. "Sorry."
"!!!" Nathan was startled but immediately regained his composure. "Is there a need to apologize?"
Noelle paused for a moment. "It's because… I have been taking your kindness for granted."
