Gloriana briefly turned her head so that she could throw a pointed glare at Ves.
Though she did not verbalize her opinions, she clearly grew annoyed at the fact that her husband became distracted yet again!
Ves was not stupid enough to ignore his current work assignments. His attention span had grown quite expansive, so he was always able to retain enough focus on his essential tasks.
The reason why Gloriana grew irked at him was because he was putting less than 100 percent of himself into his job at the moment!
While he knew that his wife wanted him to get back on track, Ves had grown far too enamored with the secrets of traditional craftsmanship to put them out of his mind.
The reason why he refused to set Vulcan's unique insights aside was because he was convinced he could apply some of them to his current work!
