At the time, Eliza, w sill ulerstood nothing, had run straight to Gabriel. She asked her father why he had given all the snow cream to Sophie when she had not even gotten a single bottle.
What had her dear father said back then? Eliza thought for a moment.
He had frowned in displeasure and said, "She is your sister. She grew up outside and has suffered so much. Can't you let her have some?" Even though she had felt wronged, Eliza had given in.
Back then, she had still been naive enough to think, 'It is just ssnow cream. If Sophie wants it, she can have it But later, Eliza realized that Sophic had wanted far more than just snow cream.
"Why are all these snow cream bottles so big? Eliza carefully cradled the bottle in her hands.

Eliza did not doubt that the snoww cream was real Given Nolan's status, he could get as much as he wanted. There was no need for him to deceive her with a fake. "They were taken straight from the Palace Apothecary as soon as they were made. I thought their bottles were too small, so I had them use a few larger ones." Nolan said, watching her expression closely. "What, do you prefer the smaller bottles?" "They are fine. I just did not recognize them at first since the bottles were different. Eliza waved a hand dismissively, not too concerned.
The snow cream she used to have was stored in colorful glass bottles from the palace, small and exquisite. The ones Nolan had sent were packed in plain white bottles, each one about the size of a grown man's palm. Just one bottle held more than three of her old ones combined.
And there were six large bottles neatly stacked in the wooden cr Anyone who did not know better would think they ran a medicine stall.
With so many, Eliza would not be so self-important as to assthey were all meant for her.
Curious, she asked, "Who else are you giving these to? Why not deliver them to others first before coming here?" "Who else could it be? Hearing that, Nolan let out a soft chuckle, his deep voice brushing against Eliza's ears like a feather.
"I made a special trip to bring these over. Of course, they are all for you," he said. 15:32 Fri, 11 Apr NA. Chapter 71 "This much? All for me?" Eliza's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked up at Nolan.
Seeing her stunned expression, Nolan suddenly had the urge to pinch her cheeks. "Yes, all for you," he confirmed.
"You have been getting injured a lot lately, I asked around, and they said this snow cream is the best for healing wounds and preventing scars, he explained.
So, he had gone straight to the Palace Apothecary and taken a few bottles, freshly made, ensuring the best medicinal effect.
"But even so, I will never be able to use up so much," Eliza said.
Even if Eliza uscry day, these six large bottles would last her until next year, "Then just keep that. Use them if you want, leave them if you do not, or give them to whoever you like," Nolan replied.
Eliza froze for a moment. Who would I even give them to? she wondered She used to have two or three close friends, but two had grown distant, and the other had moved away with her family when her father was reassigned from Hasen City. Now, she truly was alone.
Noticing her sudden silence, Nolan thought for a moment and then cleared his throat, steering the conversation elsewhere. "By the way, I heard you have been clearing land to grow medicinal herbs at Saint Grace Nunnery? Eliza snapped back to reality. "Hmm? Oh, yes. I figured I might as well do something to pass the time." "Do you needto help collect sherb seeds for you?" Nolan asked.
Eliza chuckled. "I would not dare take up your time, Your Highness" After all, his status was second only to one person in the entire palace, and his days were packed with responsibilities. It would not be right for her to trouble him so often.

"Eliza, His Highness is here to see you again," The next morning, one of the senior sisters whispered as she walked in, interrupting Eliza's morning lesson with the others.
She said it with a teasing smile. "His Highness has been visiting quite frequently lately" And every time, he brought something for Eliza.
Eliza had not thought much of it before, but when she heard her m sister's er's words, she suddenly realized Nolan really had been coming quite often. Nolan had just brought her snow cream yesterday, yet he was here again today.
Does His Majesty send him? Or does he bring something else this time?' she wondered. Eliza could not help feeling a little curious

He raised an eyebrow slightly, the corners of his lips curving into a faint smile.
But just as he smiled, a calm voice counded from behind him. "Youm Highness, Thaved few words for you. Would you mind stepping aside for a moment?" "Of course."
