Sussie Lopez had been worried that when these two former arch-enemies met, sparks would fly.
But…
It turned out differently than she had expected.
She always felt that her senior fellow apprentice had a slightly smug expression on his face.
What on earth had Finn Hale said to him?
Because on the way back to the Payne Family's place, Tim Payne suddenly said to her, "Your arm wound has healed up nicely, hasn't it."
"Yep."
"If you don't want to stay at my house and prefer to go back home, you can do so anytime now that your wound has almost healed."
"Senior fellow apprentice, are you trying to get rid of me?"
"I just don't want to see Finn Hale hanging around my house all the time."
"…"
Tim Payne also reminded his junior fellow apprentice to keep an eye on Finn Robinson.
"As far as I know, this assistant has been with Finn Hale for many years, probably spending more time with him each year than he does with the Hale Family."
