"MONA, why did you ask Neoma to leave when we weren't done with the conversation yet?"
Mona already expected Nikolai to be upset, so she proceeded to calm him down first. "Calm down and listen to me first, my love."
As soon as she called him 'my love'– her endearment for him– he instantly calmed down.
[Really simple, aren't we, my love?]
Right now, only the two of them were left in the tearoom.
After Neoma left, Manu excused himself, too.
[I think I heard Mana say he'll look for the Sun Priestess or something close to that.]
