Take over

All of a sudden, the fourth prince revealed a smile and said, "I'm happy that you're willing to call me that, but now isn't the time for that. I think that when we're in public, you should address me as prime minister."

I was surprised to hear the fourth prince…no, the prime minister say this since this was completely different from how he acted before.

If this was before, he would have insisted that I kept calling him brother or Noah.

It seemed that after taking his role, he had matured a bit…

No, he was always mature before, it was just that he was acting this way around me.

He had acted in a way that he couldn't act around others before with me, but now he was holding that side of him back. Or at least, he was doing that while we were in public.

After being surprised, I gave a slow nod since I didn't disagree with this.

But the problem was that the prime minister didn't say anything past this.
