The woman who had not spent much time with her younger son recently due to him always being out and about was very pleased with the opportunity Evan's medal ceremony had given her.
She was the one who usually handled his and Eliza's formal occasion attires after all.
Evan ended up meeting Arnold while he was there and the two didn't awkwardly ignore each other like they used to before, something that brought a smile to Patricia's face as she was worried that they were on bad terms but didn't know what to do since she didn't know why.
Of course, his attitude towards Richard who was over to discuss a few academy-related stuff with Arnold was as snarky as ever.
He did take notice of the fact that Arnold's 'personal maid', Brenda was not present, but he deduced the reason why pretty quickly.
'if things went as planned, then Greed should have gained Geomantic Wrath from that Celestial by now.
It makes sense that Brenda would not be here then.'
