When?

Davis also kept his smile suppressed as he wryly spoke and gestured.

"Apothecary Nazca Alstreim, please don't be bothered by it. We are all limited by our skills, and even I almost fell that day, so don't feel down. No one took offense and was instead thankful for the expertise and knowledge you've shown."

Evelynn and Isabella nodded, causing Apothecary Nazca Alstreim to be taken aback as her eyes glistened. She thought she was invited here to be punished, but it didn't seem like the case, making her feel heartened.

Her body straightened before she clasped her hands and bowed her head.

"Thank you for your valuable praise, your eminence."

"Don't be so formal. I'm still your junior and an Alstreim Family youth."

Nazca Alstreim blinked at Davis's response before she relaxedly smiled.

"Yes."

How could she forget that he was not even fifty years old?
