Claudius knew that Felicity had not intended to humiliate him, but rather it was his hesitation that embarrassed the other party.
But when the flower branch that had been thrown at him was suddenly pulled away, he still felt a dull pain in his left chest as if he had been hit hard by a punch.
Through the narrow gap in his helmet, he watched Felicity pluck the petals that were sticking to his soft lips, looked at them carefully in the sunlight, then put them together with the bouquet into his shawl, wrapped them up in layers and held them tightly to his chest.
It was clearly just a bouquet of flowers, but she looked embarrassed as if she was holding something precious, and her face was incredibly pale.
