@keks503 to be fair, he himself said that he wasn’t sure why he was drawn to her and he currently takes it as trying to figure out what happened, what’s her deal. Granted, he doesn’t suspect her of a crime or anything, but he is curious about the plants and her, how she got ahold of the fruit of it’s the only one and the other royal employees said it’s the same, then how the other plant showed up and trapped the guy. He’s curious and wants to know. So really, he’s just doing his job and investigating and getting close to her to get answers he isn’t really chasing her, just being charismatic to try and gain her trust. He’s not aware that he is interested in her in another way (if he even is atm), hence why he didn’t really keep requesting her to join him to the event and left the ball in her court.
