Relief washed over her, knowing that her unintentional mishap had not caused any serious harm. Still, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt for her clumsy actions.
With a shy smile, Maddie reached into her pocket and retrieved a soft white handkerchief. Delicately embroidered with an 'M'. She extended it towards Mister Gladstone, earnestnessly.
"Here, please take this," Maddie said softly, her voice laced with a blend of apology and concern. "I believe this handkerchief might be of better use in cleaning the stain. It's the least I can do." Maddie's cheeks flushed with a renewed sense of embarrassment, but also with a tinge of excitement.
"I truly didn't mean to impose upon you, Mister Gladstone," Maddie continued, her voice filled with sincerity. She glanced around, scanning the area for any signs of a water source or a cloth that could aid in the cleansing process. The vibrant ambiance of the medicinal plants zone seemed to fade into the background as her attention became solely focused on the man before her.
"I promise I'll make it up to you," Maddie added, her voice barely above a whisper. "And please, allow me to cover any expenses that may arise from this unfortunate accident. It's the least I can do to atone for my clumsiness." Maddie's gaze remained fixed on Mister Gladstone, her eyes reflecting both her regret and her genuine desire to rectify the situation.
